Are there any known issues or bugs with the Kingdom Hearts games running on the Steam Deck, particularly concerning refresh rates and camera movement?
Yes, there are some known issues and bugs with the Kingdom Hearts games running on the Steam Deck, particularly concerning refresh rates and camera movement. Some players have reported that running the games at refresh rates higher than 60 can cause camera movement issues and even slowdowns. To address this, it is recommended to set the Steam Deck screen's refresh rate to 60hz, enable v-sync, and cap the game to 60fps. Additionally, some users have experienced crashes and other issues, which may require further tweaking and updates to resolve.
What are the frame rate capabilities of Kingdom Hearts III on PC, and how does it perform on the Steam Deck specifically?
Kingdom Hearts III on PC supports a variety of frame rate options, including 30, 60, 120, and an unlocked frame rate. The game's performance on the Steam Deck is playable out of the box, but achieving a locked 60fps requires some tweaking. Running the game at low presets and native resolution results in a nearly locked 60fps, while medium presets with a 60fps target sees drops to the high 50s. High presets run in the low 50s, with drops to the 40s in some areas. It is recommended to stick to the medium preset with some tweaks or play at low settings for the closest to a locked 60fps experience on the Steam Deck.
