FFVII on SteamDeck maybe? I would probably play that.

I don't think it will run very well there, we can have hope though

First one ran just fine, so maybe? 🤞

Maybe! There's much bigger spaces in this one, more assets to load etc. Recommended specs are an RTX 2060 for 1080p 30fps low settings. I would say the steam deck sits around there?

That makes sense.

I gotta say, the SteamDeck has been a weird journey. I'm playing a lot more high graphics titles now that I can just quickly check for a 'SteamDeck Verified' badge.

On the one hand, mine is a first generation portable, so there's a lot of games it is never going to run.

On the other, it keeps surprising me what gets ported to it.

It's surprisingly capable hardware. Doom External was running at solid 60FPS on medium or high settings (can't remember) for me. Sure, it's a very well optimised game, but it's a real looker too.

I know, right?! It keeps surprising me, in a nice way.

Oh man I'm very impressed with it. First "console" in many years that I've been really really happy with.
