RDR1 - Where to play best? Switch, PS4...or Steam Deck? (lemm.ee)

Hi guys! So I happen to still own all these three devices, and I just saw RDR1 just dropped on the first two. Which device would you advice to play it on? Is it looking any better on PS4? Is it playing decently on the Deck yet? What's your advice on this?

Thanks!

So basically they just did an "upscale" remaster of the original, rather than using the assets and engine from RDR2? (Which is annoying because pretty much all of New Austin was built out)

The development cost for building it out in the new engine would probably be an order of magnitude higher than the simple upscale.

If they thought they'd get an order of magnitude more sales from doing things that way, they'd have done it that way.

I'm with you, though. I'd love a proper remaster that also came as a native PC edition.
