Decided to try the demo on Steam Deck LCD.
Basically get 18-24 fps @ Performance FSR 3 and 19-26fps at Ultra Performance FSR 3. I'd say it hits 30fps maybe 5% of the time, when I looked out at the empty desert.
This is what it looks like.
And yes, GPU clock was at its max turbo clock (1600Mhz) with 95-98% utilization.
Also tried it on the Rog Ally Z1E and I can get a very unstable 28-35fps with FSR 3 Performance @ 900p target.
Need to drop down to 720p target or ultra performance with 900p target to get a semi-stable 30fps.
Everything is on the lowest possible.
Just for context FSR 3 Ultra Performance @ 800p target is ~266p internally. @900p it is about 300p internally.
Performance @ 800p is 400p internally. At 900p about 450p internally.
Switch 2 handheld renders the game internally around 540p, and docked around 720p according to DF.
Any optimization for Steam Deck, will have to go a pretty long way to compare to SW2. Especially given that Ubisoft already optimizes for AMD GPU's pretty well.
