Only thing holding me back from pre order is PC performance and just performance in general. Imo Bethesda games on PC don't play well. So I have been holding out hope reviews before release can tell me. PC ports have been terrible this year :)
I'm in a similar situation. I want to see how (if?) it runs on a steam deck before I decide where to buy it. Otherwise I'd have already pre-ordered it.
Same boat here. I've been mad interested in Starfield since it was announced, but my Deck is now my primary gaming device. I need to make sure it can be modded to a stable 30FPS before I buy it.
Personally I'm waiting to see if it'll run on the Deck as my excuse to buy one lol
I don't even get a stable 30fps playing BG3, so I am kind of pessimistic that Starfield will run on the deck. I hope so, but I'll play it on the Xbox if I have to.
Baldur's Gate isn't a Bethesda title. Bethesda games are historically some of the most moddable there are, so I'm cautiously optimistic.
Fallout 76 runs at 45ish fps, I don't think Starfield will get a clean 30fps. Maybe the Rog Ally.
