Hi everyone,

I've just updated my "Bloodborne PC Enhanced Installer" to auto-detect the OS. It will now detects Linux or Steam Deck and will install the appropriate version of the fork (bloodborne_pc).

Like previously, the installer is mostly automated and installs some nice-to-have "Quality of Life" mods (like warping between lamps) and graphical enhancements.

While keeping the vanilla experience.

I don't own a Steam Deck myself, but I've tested that succesfuly on CachyOS, and a friend tested it on its Steam Deck. Your feedbacks are however important to help to even improve it.

From our tests, default settings should give you 50-60 FPS out of the box.

Happy hunting,
Mulder

Hi everyone, when I last played TW3 remastered on steam deck, it was on 1st October and even on steam deck preset and fsr quality upscaling the game looked bad, it has stutters and fps dips like sometimes even having difficulty to hold 30 fps even in Novigrad.

Is the game better now on the steam deck as per recent patches ?

Currently I am on the next gen version, I reverted to next gen and got stable 40 fps at mix of medium and low graphics with xess quality

I really want to try remastered on the steam deck again, but I am not sure how it will perform.

I purchased my Steam Deck earlier this year, before the price increased, and have absolutely loved it! I truly think it’s a fantastic device however, there are a few things that I’ve come to realize I dislike after a few months. I’m considering a gaming laptop or the Steam Machine; I’m looking for anything priced in that ball park really but I don’t know what is the best option available.

I have been jealous of PC players showing gameplay of Deadlock + I play Overwatch on PS5 and have wanted to move to PC for a long time. That’s really where the Steam Deck doesn’t fare well (live service games) and where I can see myself preferring a different device. I’m in no rush to part with it though! I’m just trying to see what might work better for me.

I also don’t want to be inconvenienced with having to mod games again… redownloading emulated games, stuff that won’t transfer, etc. so if there’s a way to make that process as smooth as possible let me know too.

Just curious if anyone had a chance to revisit it yet. The initial state of the game didn’t run well on my OLED deck. It had weird stutters when I moved the camera around.

Hi, I’m looking at getting a steamdeck for christmas and saw a few reviews on YouTube saying it’s good for the bare minimum (which I’m after) but I can’t find it anywhere but Ebay. Is it discontinued in the UK or do I need to look harder?

So, I'm finally getting back into gaming after 3 years of my Steam Deck collecting dust in a drawer.

Have there been any significant tweaks, tools, or must-have improvements over the past 3 years that I should know about?

I remember using Yuzu back then, and it worked great. Really sad to see it got shut down.

Hi everyone. A while back, I bought a used LCD Steam Deck with 90% battery health, but the average runtime was always around 45–55 minutes, even with low power draw. I was wondering: if I bought another used one—specifically one with 100% battery health—would I face the same issues? Would it allow me to get 2–3 hours of playtime using emulators like Dolphin and Cemu, or playing more demanding titles like *Dragon Ball Xenoverse 3* (and similar games) on low settings?

Hi all, just got my steam deck second hand.

I had my first child less than a month ago and i purchased this with the intent to play WoW forever on my TV through the steam deck. However, i am experiencing some input lag.

Currently at the hospital but i imagine that if i try this then it may perform better.

TV: Game Mode on, aspect ratio set to "Just Scan" or "Screen Fit," and motion smoothing and sharpening off.

Deck output: Set to 4K at 60 Hz (Settings > Display).

Wi-Fi: Make sure the Deck is on 5 GHz and close to the router.

Steam Link settings:

Advanced Client Options on, Enhanced 1080p

Resolution limit at 1080p

Video set to Fast instead of Balanced

Hardware decoding on

Prioritize network traffic on

PC: Cap in-game FPS at 60 and close background apps.

Scaling: In the Deck's Quick Access menu, set the scaling filter to FSR or Sharp to clean up the 1080p image on the 4K TV.

Use moonlight and apollo to create a virtual monitor for wow that streams at 1080p to my tv.

Has anyone experience resolving this?

UPDATE: Claude and moonlight/apollo did the trick!

Hey everyone,

​I’m playing on the Steam Deck and unfortunately ran into a major issue. Since a recent update, my save file for Thimbleweed Park (around 20 hours in, right around the hotel part) completely vanished.

​I’m really bummed out about losing all that progress. Does anyone happen to know if there's a way to restore it, or does someone know where I could find a save file online for roughly that point in the game?

​Any help or tips would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!
