Dragon Age: Veilguard Available for Veil in Steam Deck

Discourse? Look buddy, I'm just here to test Steam Deck. Dragon Age: Veilguard runs like a touch on any midrange desktop hardware, so naturally it was worth trying on the weaker Deck. And of course, Bioware's RPG (which is really more of an action game with the occasional verbal sparring) settles comfortably into handheld life.

In fact, Valve has graced its Steam page with the Verified medal, its seal of approval for any game that performs and checks in well on the Steam Deck without any glaring weaknesses or impractical inconveniences. It's still worth tinkering with the settings – I'll get to those later – but having played for several hours without a pint-sized tooltip, I'll back that official rating.

Dragon Age: The Veilguard on PC is the surprise AAA tech success of 2024

There’s plenty that you could justifiably expect from a Bioware RPG: chats with mates, opportunities to get those mates horribly killed, surviving mates turning to the side then walking offscreen.

I was deeply amazed by Dragon Age: The Veilguard's intricate and ridiculous fashion design

Some extremely new vintage work clothes I bought purely practical reasons aside, I'm not much of a fashion person. Most days I have no one to impress other than my cat, and the only outfit she has an opinion on is my Oodie, which is very comfortable for both of us and also smells like a chicken shop, which I think is nicer for her than for me.

That aside, I found myself taking a lot of Dragon Age: The Veilguard screenshots as I played to catch up on the RPG's various outfits. These nonsense. Besides being incredibly complex and detailed, it's also often obscenely cumbersome. I don't like any of them in the sense that I would wear them, but I like them all in the sense that they showcase artists who are allowed to run free like caffeinated ferrets and indulge their every desire.
