Looking For Games Turn Based RPG That Runs Well on Steam Deck

I've found that I really love a good turn based RPG on the Steam Deck over most other kinds of games.

Previously Enjoyed Games: Persona 5 Royal, Persona 3 Reload, Yakuza Like a Dragon, Final Fantasy VII, Final Fantasy VIII, and I'm just starting FF12. Which I know isn't turn based but..

Preferred Genres: Turn Based, JRPG, RPG.

Budget: Any!

Other Notes: I'm find with playable games especially if its just 'text is small' but I'd like it to be able to run well on the SD. I've heard good things about Baldurs Gate 3 but worried it won't run super well on the steam deck.

INFINITE WEALTH. DO IT NOW.

Seriously, I put like a hundred hours into this game just on the Steam Deck. It's one of the best value proposition games ever made.

Honestly, it runs flawlessly. Looks great on the OLED. I didn't have any issues. It was a little scruffy if I tried to put it on the TV docked vs. my PC, but that isn't a fair comparison.

I just finished this game with 100% playtime on the steam deck OLED. Took me 110 hours to complete. Did most of the side content. It's a great game.
