Analysis — Rise of the Ronin on the Steam Machine
RPGs swing between light dungeons and busy hub towns, and the towns are the Zen 4 CPU's real test. If the frame-rate dips there, cut NPC density and draw distance before touching resolution.
Spend the headroom on image quality — 1440p output with FSR Quality — rather than settings that barely move the picture.
16 ProtonDB reports rate it Gold (runs perfectly after tweaks), in line with Valve's Deck Unsupported rating.
Steam lists only partial controller support — some menus or modes may still want a mouse, and Steam Input's community layouts are the first thing to try.
