From my testing a few months back, there was significant slow down in the cutscenes. Actual gameplay was fine. I have no idea why. I know that SteamOS 3.5 has a fix for a kernel issue that caused issues with SMT, so perhaps things are better now. Once 3.5 reaches stable I'll test the games out again.
Ahh that makes sense. I was only testing, not actually playing, and the cutscenes were definitely skipped. I bet my handheld struggles even more than the deck there. I have 3 on PSVita, so I never even tried 3, but given it’s much higher quality, I imagine it would struggle greatly.
The Vita version is flawless, I guess because it's a native port rather than emulation. Emulation of certain PS2 games can be tricky due to the weird CPU architecture
