I mean old like Sega Rally Revo. This is not my video, but it sums up my experience playing in deck. The graphics doesn’t feel too old when compared to today’s games and I’m not sure why but I always get above 100fps even i limit deck settings to 60.

        It can, but it’s not trivial to set up. First you have to reformat/convert to btrfs, then you have to chattr everything, and defrag to do a compression pass on the existing stuff. And after all that, Steam does every download and patch with a preallocate that blocks out the online compression, so you have to subvol and anti-cow its downloading folder to defeat that.

          Already using btrfs, since I’m on Bazzite, but I think I’ll just upgrade the SSD before I bother doing all that 😂

      Because everyone has time to 7z a -m”x=9” an entire game that might be hardly compressible due to drm, whenever they want to unzip and play a different game! /s

      … unless the deck has some kind of built in compression I don’t know about.
