Black Flag Resynced. Obligatory “fuck Ubisoft,” but I loved the original and I’ve been loving the remaster. And I’m pretty sure this is the first Ubisoft title I’ve bought since the original. It runs surprisingly well on the Deck if you limit it to 30FPS and put it on one of the handheld settings.
That is, I love it when I can play it. I’ve been traveling this weekend, and if I want to run the game I need to connect the Deck to my phone’s hotspot to start the game. It can run disconnected, just needs to be connected to start it. But fortunately the Deck suspends and wakes just fine while the game is already running, so I’ve just left it going.
(Obviously it looks much better if I play on my PC or stream it to the Deck from the PC, but I’ve been glad to be able to play it on the go with minimal fuss.)
