Only surprise for me is that Witcher 3 is so high up. In my experience it doesn't actually run very well and needs the settings cranked down for an unstable 30 fps. Glad people are enjoying it, though.
There’s a steam deck graphics preset on the next gen version that works really well. I have the FPS locked at 45fps and it is really smooth. I am also playing the next gen version on my PS4 and it is really laggy compared to the steam deck.
People could be playing the pre-upgrade version of the game, which is still available as a beta option (afaik). It has much better performance.
I've seen some guides on settings for getting the upgraded version to run better as well, apparently stuff like grass detail makes a huge difference in how well the game runs.
