Given Bethesda's history, it's 50/50 whether it'll even be compatible with a Windows desktop PC on launch day.

I suspect it will work on proton a bit after release.

I son’t really have any doubts that it will work on the deck, as in we will be able to run the game.

The performance is what worries me. I’m expecting, but would love to be proven wrong, massive trade offs in order to be able to run it at playable fps.

I'm expecting CP2077 levels of performance, which wouldn't be terrible....

I'm gonna run that sucker at Ultra off of an SD card.

That way I have more time to enjoy the beauty of every frame.

Which would lead to Starfield being compatible with linux in general; that would be pretty nice.

I can’t imagine the compatibility will come quickly.
