Why did I even click a legacy media opinion on ANYTHING gaming related...

Not to mention, the Verge... On a hardware review...

@LukeAlmighty@gameliberty.club there cons are true though.
and for casuals, the 3rd con is not that obvious.
2 and 4 are expected
and 1 is not a big problem IMO

@kura
The second is just false
When I play GTA 5 Full res at stable 30, the fan is completelly idle. It is loud only, when you really want to show off, and go for stable 60 (and deck can handle that too, that is crazy)

@LukeAlmighty@gameliberty.club that is implied by the "only 2h battery life"

meaning they are on full power

@kura
So, it's bullshit in other words. These idiots would have rated it 8/10, if the hardware was limited to 1/2 of the power by default.

The fact, that the dect can squeeze this ridiculous power for "only 2 hours." is laughable considering the power we're talking about.

@kura
Of course some games not wokring can be a dealbreaker.

I wonder, if they mentioned this in other reviewes.

Switch does not support WOW,
Xbox does not support the Last of us.
Playstation does not support Starcraft.

🤔

@kura
I tested it yestedday just to be sure.
Yes, I can squeeze the deck batery with high details on GTA V in 2 hours... on stable 60 FPS.

As soon as I put it to 30, the fan is quiet, the battery goes to 4 hours and I seriously couldn't care less...

This is not a battery problem, it's a lazyness problem.

@LukeAlmighty@gameliberty.club also screen refresh rate is a huge factor (outside of fps). so if you limit screen refresh rate to 30 or 40 hz instead of 60, you get even more
