This may overlap a lot with the discussion on what people are buying during the Steam sale discussion, but here it is anyways.

You can always stream from your desktop to your Deck too if the performance on the Deck isn’t great.

I do this with my PS5 sometimes. I played the majority of Miles Morales that way.

Hey, what was it that you didn’t like about BG3? I haven’t played it yet because my patience for RPGs is low these days.

[–] danielquinn@lemmy.ca 4 points 1 week ago (1 children)

BG3 is a pretty impressive game really. It's clear that they poured a lot of effort and talent into it. It just feels... pointlessly complicated to me. There's like, 200 different spells to cast, each with their own effectiveness based on a dice roll, a multitude of different configurations for character development which all feel both too similar and like I'm closing the door on something I might really like. The story is... okay, but really not that interesting to me, and the pacing in combination with the very open world and constant fiddling with gear with a multitude of only slightly different attributes... it's just too much. The game feels more like a job than something I'd do for fun.

That’s exactly why I avoided it. It’s a second job rather than fun (to me, plenty disagree of course). Thank you for confirming that. I’ll stick with more action heavy games.
