Avowed runs fine on PCs running Linux, such as mine, but runs miserably on the Deck. Hopefully performance & optimization are improved upon.
All of the text is rather small on the Deck's screen, even at the largest text size setting
Various small artifacts and strange textures & effects; may be patched in the future
Avowed runs extremely poorly on the Deck. At the lowest settings with TSR @ 50%, you can expect an unstable & inconsistent 20-30 FPS. This framerate, especially with how uneven it is, makes the game feel dreadful to play. Many areas are close to, if not outright unplayable on the Deck, including the tutorial.
Decky's framegen plugin can allow for the game to run @ nearly 60 FPS, but it remains inconsistent & less than steady. This can also cause major input lag, which is unfortunately absolutely deadly in combat.
If your Deck is the only system you have, you might want to hold off on trying Avowed until it's had some more time to cook. But, if you've got another system that can run it, it's pretty fun and I totally recommend it!
