I’ve been able to spend a few hours playingPalworld(Steam) onROG Allyso far and I can tell you that it’s a fun experience. However, when I first started playing the creature-collecting game, the default settings for thegaming handheldweren’t good enough for me to play the game smoothly.
After some trial and error involving making settings adjustments to both the ROG Ally’s settings as well as in Palworld’s game settings, I was able to get the game playing at up to 65 frames per second (FPS) with decent graphics. Here’s what you need to do to get Palworld running well on ROG Ally.

As always, you might find that you prefer different settings while playing Palworld, so feel free to make changes to what I listed above. However, if you’re trying to find the smoothest playing experience with high frames per second (FPS) then I suggest you do exactly what I listed.
The one thing I recommend you adjust according to taste is the Field of view (FOV). Adjusting this determines how much of the world you can view in the game. Some people prefer to be closer to their characters to provide more focus, while others prefer to be further removed so they can take more of their environment in at one glance. My sweet spot was at a FOV of 85, but you might find a different number suits you better.
At any rate, enjoy playing Palworld! There are so many interesting areas to discover and plenty of Pals to catch, so good luck on your journey.
