not gonna happen with GTA6 releasing soon
Is it?
I feel like I could have raised a family in the time between its supposed release date and now, and it's still not out yet.
Rockstar are good at optimising their games. GTA V ran better than GTA IV on the same hardware. I wouldn't be surprised if GTA VI runs well on the Steam Deck.
Well, it did take a while for GTA IV to run well on anything, really...
it still doesn't in some modern PCs lol
GTA IV was released for the same generation of consoles, and also there was only a 5 year difference between releases.
GTA V came out in 2013... almost 13 years ago and we are two generations ahead console-wise.
I'm just skeptical at the idea that GTA VI will run well on Steam Deck, maybe on the future Steam Machine
i think its a bit much to still ask the steam deck to run new releases well, especially with valves refusal to release performance updated version unless they can make major, foundational improvements such that it would basically be a steam deck 2
the steam deck is 4 years old, afterall, and it wasnt exactly a top end machine when it released.. being little more than a slightly modified APU based system.
It won't at all run on the deck. They blocked 5 from Linux a while ago.
Doesn't GTA IV famously soft lock if the frame rates too high because soon aspects of the animation cycle are blocked to frame rate?
Rockstar good at optimizing games?
Is that a real statement?
