Diablo 4 has been a blast and runs great on the Deck! Battery life isn’t all that great but it’s also a non-issue mostly as you need an active Internet connection to play anyway. So it’s not like I’d be playing on the go.
I get a solid 45-50 fps in most areas and I set most things to high. Only a few select things like fog and shadow quality I set to low. It ran fine even out of the box. I would recommend using AMD FSR 2 in quality mode (from the in-game menu, not the SteamDeck internal FSR) for a somewhat more stable experience. Mind you I am pretty early on in the game (level 15), so maybe late-game performance is worse.
