Dragon’s Dogma with upscaled textures and RetroArch with the mega bezel shader pack.
Honestly yeah. Finally got a Steam Deck. Found out it plays PSP games buttery smooth on a great screen and have yet to log any hours on actual triple-A games because nostalgia is happening
Legitimately, apart from a handful of indie games I had in my Steam library that I hadn’t gotten around to playing yet (eg. Hades), I’ve shown the majority of my time playing SNES and PSP games.
For some reason, I can’t get the controllers emulating for the PS1 correctly (both in Desktop and Deck modes); otherwise I’d be neck deep in Suikoden, Final Fantasy 9 and Tombi/Tomba too!
If it’s any consolidation to your issue, I use https://www.emudeck.com/ Which will setup most of everything very well. I then run EmulationStation, and go to the alternative emulators section and run PS1 games through retroarch which will give you more options to configure your controls. I always save my remaps to the core so that all games played with use the same control config. Such as SNES games using A on the decks A button because I absolute HATE nintendos control scheme. :)
i mean even your phone can definitely run psp games at full speed, even if it’s a budget phone from 2016.
though mobile controllers are quirky (like stretching ones or whatever) and android is really not the best gaming platform (it just doesn’t feel right)I know it doesn’t feel as good as a PSP, I have one which only works plugged in to the wall, it is a big deal to me so I decided to take my save game and finish P3P in my phone with a Razer Kishi, it definitely made it feel better and the save games and fast forward features were a nice addition.
I still feel what you said though… Some devices such as a Retroid Pocket 3+/4 seems like a better option and keeping it in the Android emulation side.
now I can play on medium quality instead of low
Finally can invcrease the shader quality from “potato” to low
Or still low, but with the new texture pack mod!
S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Anomaly GAMMA with all the mods on and no regard for optimisation
I remember the early x86 games that were actually clocked to the CPU speed. You literally could play old games faster! Or just hit that turbo button!
People still do that way too often in Unity when they don’t understand how to use Update() or FixedUpdate() correctly x.x
fallout 76 also did that
All beth games do that with physics
E: Actually did Starfield fix that issue?
E2: It did, cool
That’s exactly what I did when I got the PS5. I loved it. First year when it didn’t really have much that’s all I played. Games were getting patched to perform better on ps5 and it was incredible.
I wish PCs still had that Turbo Mode button
Load up AOE2 and let’s play forest nothing!
IQ Level 200…
can you run gothic 3 on a consistent framerate now?
I have a huge backlog of games to play on Steam. I prolly got 10 years worth.
He has veins in his hair?
You dont?
I mean…should I?
Yes
Lol, same. Finally upgraded my GPU from a 1060 to a used 2060. Not exactly with the times, but a huge performance boost for me.
I had several games on the back burner, so when I finished my time with Valheim I intended to finally play RDR2. And do you know what I did? I opened Mod Organizer 2 and installed the graphically intensive but wholly realistic Nature of the Wild Lands tree and flora mod for Skyrim that used to run at 40 FPS but now maintains a solid 60. So we’re playing Skyrim again…
Note: I’m well aware that many people have moved on to Traverse the Ulvenwald over NotWL, but I personally think Ulvenwald makes some poor texture choices compared to Wild Lands (namely aspen trees) and as a result the woods look less convincing to me once properly compared within the game. Just isn’t worth the swaying animations.
… loads up fy_iceworld …
Lower your FPS by turning on vsync until the game runs normally again then.
