It took a lot of tinkering, ngl. So far, I've gotten it to run at a pretty consistent 30fps with a bit of slowdown when going into areas for the first time due to shader compilation. Of course, big towns and such shows a bit of a slowdown as well, but nothing game breaking. I'm about a third or more through the main story all played on the Deck. Here's a list of things I've done to get it playable:
A quick note : I'm also running Release 1.0 since whenever I try to upgrade to 1.1, I get an infinite black loading screen. I think this has to do with where I got the 1.0 release from, but I'm not sure. Supposedly, 1.1 has some bug fixes and performance fixes as well, but I'm too far into the game to worry about getting it working at this point.
All of this is purely hypothetical, though, obviously.
Wow thank you for the detailed response!
