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!

RDR is not (officially) available on PC / Steam / Steamdeck. So you'll need to either emulate switch or 360 via Xenia. IIRC MVG had a video about RDR running under Xenia on the deck about a year ago, and it was mostly 30fps ish.

Realistically though, if you want portable play Switch. If you want to play on a TV PS4. The best way to play this right now, in the absence of PC port, is an Xbox Series X via back compat, which doesn't really help you!

RDR runs great on yuzu

Yuzu...on PC? Or also in Steam Deck?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (2 children)

I'd say they must mean PC - It runs fine for me with Yuzu on a good gaming PC using OpenGLSL. It's locked to 30fps though unless there's some setting I don't know about.

It's so far unplayable for me on the SteamDeck because of the requirement for OpenGLSL - it works, but it runs at about 10fps. Using Vulkan seems to be closer to 30fps on SteamDeck, so I imagine when this is fixed it will be playable on the SD, but that is not the case right now. I'm using the latest pinEApple build.

On Ryujinx you can turn off vsync to get it to run at a capped 65, haven't noticed any issues. Unsure if there's anything that runs it better than that. Probably works on Yuzu too.

thanks, I'll give that a try

Thanks for trying! I'll keep an eye on this.
