I had a good run but ever since getting to the fire temple it’s crashing every 5 minutes

    Is it worth trying to play this on the deck yet? I’ve been dragging my feet because I don’t really care much about making it run and better than it does on the switch; I just find the switch itself in handheld mode stupid uncomfortable and would mainly want to be able to play on the deck instead of switching between devices

      been playing it via Yuzu EA builds. It runs just fine on the Deck at around 30fps, dipping to 20fps in some of the harder to render areas but it’s certainly playable. I play on my gaming rig as well where it can easily keep a consistent 30fps.

      If you don’t care about making it run better than on the Switch, you’re good. I did a little bit of hoop-jumping, following a guide that was on Reddit (and I don’t know if it’s currently visible) to get it running really well and also synchronize saves and mods to my PC.

      I have not played TOTK on the Switch at all, I’ve exclusively experienced the game as a PC/Deck game and it’s a damn good one. Sometimes I think “oh this must be an emulation problem” when the game dips to 40FPS (PC) or 20FPS (Deck) while fiddling with the Ultra-Hand, but then I see my roommate do the same thing on an actual real Switch and it lags even more.
