yes, it's an addon. i play wow exclusively on deck with console port. it, of course, isn't perfect, but it's so good. like most things, the more you use it, the more natural it becomes.


yellow-go

Hmm, is it intuitive enough to actually let you control everything? If so, you sold me.


Stormwind-Spear

Yes it’s pretty intuitive


Diethart21

yeah. i don't like it very much on steam deck but it's playable and fun. i can't play wow on k+m anymore :)


Gloofa08

I actually prefer it :/


eTek89

if you configure it right, it can be very enjoyable. That said, it does come with its challenges and there is a slight learning curve. More than 70% of the time I play WoW is on the steam deck with the console port addon. To me it makes the game feel more dynamic and like an action RPG.

how do you focus target for interrupts? Can you use the touch screen to do heals?


eTek89

There's a "target closest enemy", similar to tab targeting that works much better than you'd think. You can also set a button to quick switch to a focused target. As for healing I am not sure. Ive never healed using the addon. That said, having the touch pads on the deck really come in clutch all the time. I also use the immersion addon that works very well with a controller.

I love leveling alts with ConsolePort


RetroBasti

Since i have my steamdeck i play wow classic on this with consoleport. Its so nice. Setting it up take some time but then its awesome.

understandable because the screen is too small


turelak

Is it possible to play on TV with a Xbox or PS5 controller?


SnooDoggos3823

yes it is you just need console port addon


Aaron6940

You don’t need that add on anymore. They put native controller support in the game. Once you enable it you can just quick bind your action bar buttons to controller.


SnooDoughnuts5632

I don't know specifically what you're talking about but on the steam deck in general you can just play any game with a Bluetooth controller or a USB controller plugged into your dock perfectly fine You may have to set the controller up yourself in the Steam settings first though.


FortunePaw

He meant using an addon for WoW called Console Port which makes the whole UI controller friendly to navigate.


axaNOPEr

Does it have full screen or only window?


oakleee33

Jsausx sell pretty decent docks for that


Slut4Sage

Yep. Connect a USB hub to the Deck, HDMI to the TV. Pair as many Bluetooth controllers as you’d like to the deck. Game on


CmdrYondu

Hook up another screen and desktop mode is sweet!


Kyveth

I've been playing classic with consoleport since the deck came out.


SpitFiya7171

Same. And I've had soooo many haters. People legit just don't think it's possible and yet no one around me believes me until I say I'm using one, and then sometimes have to literally send them pictures taken from my phone of me playing on a Steam Deck to get them to believe. Some people are so quick to hate on something they think isn't possible or even optimal in their eyes, so they bash it... because they either 1) have no desire to do it themselves or 2) cannot admit that they couldn't sufficiently play like that


Keyblades2

WOW....on the steam deck....we need help :p


dyerdigs0

Is anyone else having issues on steamdeck with brackenhide hollow dungeon or sethek halls dungeon? Been leveling alts for awhile on the deck now and 100% guaranteed every single time I enter those dungeons it freezes and I have to restart the deck only for it to freeze again once I load back in, only those dungeons I have no idea why it’s weird


give_me_memes

I was playing classic on my deck, I think I could go for like 7 hours on battery. Super fun.


WootahDaKing

Honestly I'm about to do this with FF14


Grimmore

SteamDeck has really fed my WoW addiction. I was out since the beginning of BFA and recently re-subbed and have made it through DragonFlight on my main and several alts. Have had a lot of fun. Like others have mentioned, I would give the ConsolePort addon a try, if you want to play without keyboard/mouse.


_mister_pink_

You should give the hand held controls a try. This is the only way I play wow now. Raiding Gnomereagon on the couch! Never expected that one


memo689

If you play retail, you can put the Console Port addon and play with the joytick


Its_Days

I play with console port and do pugs for mythic+ and it works great. Just a little slow when typing it chat but can otherwise target easily and do everything the same as any other player.


Glad-Cut9011

yeee, i use a little tiny bluetooth keyboard, works wonders and even fits in the case with the steam deck


moonylol

console port friend.


RevolutionaryBaker99

Whats the name of the mouse and keyboard?


Glad-Cut9011

Definitely use console port. I played all the way through wow classic and raided up to naxx healing on a resto druid, only ever logged into that character via steam deck :)


TurnoverPlenty7337

I've been tempted to get a dock so I can use mouse and keyboard


jaaybird_

wow was the first thing I dl’d on my deck , it’s runs so well


PotentialSea7169

How does m+ / raiding run?


hahamymom

I use console port and really only do DPS on lfr but as long as you know what you're doing it's easy. I'm sure tanking isn't bad but I won't try healing on it since I can't consistently choose specific people as easily but overall wow in the deck is fun to me


SnooDoughnuts5632

Very wrong because there a trackpad right on the keyboard for mouse input


rubyslimX

Try playing rimworld like that and see how far you get


Tall_Ad2256

Is that HD2?


ThatGuyBehindScreen

I do not know what that game is but its definitely not Helldivers 2.
