1 year agoOnly game I bought was Dragon’s Dogma. Should be fun.
Otherwise I’m pretty much streaming everything else I already own on my main PC with Moonlight. It’s fantastic.
I live in a small studio apartment with 2 Amazon Eero mesh routers at a 500mbps download speed.
Streaming with Moonlight off my 3060ti desktop is absolutely incredible. I cannot perceive any latency and only have to deal with very rare hitches. I tested RDR2, Control, and FO76 over the weekend with this setup and I’m shocked at how well it works. The games run at 90fps/high settings with 1440p downscaled to 720p on the Deck. Looks and runs beautiful, especially for RDR2.
The input latency improvements due to the new OLED display are a massive improvement over the LCD and this translates very well for streaming.
I also got Moonlight to talk to Playnite so I can launch Playnite from my Deck and have every single installed game on my desktop PC from any storefront ready to stream within 15 seconds. It also works for streaming emulated games.
My 2 cents, if your internet is good and you are using the Deck at home there is absolutely no reason to not play pretty much everything streamed.
