Wow, that's surprising. I really liked the old name personally. It was at least interesting. Who's the siren? Why does it need silencing or was silenced? New name is just a rip off of HoMM ... !!

I suppose they are correct that it'll get them more initial clicks. Will that transition to more sales?

@such huh ... thanks for the info. I guess they have done a really good job with the controller based ui. Yeah I agree that the desktop "wall of icons" isn't great, but I'm not sure what other way to do it? I do kinda want access to all those spells and items. I'm glad it worked for you handheld!

this might be the first ever complex rpg I would consider for the Deck. I still to this day can't fathom how people can play stuff like bg3 on a tiny screen with a controller, but it remains one of the top played games. So I must be totally crazy. This games graphics won't stress the deck at all, and as long as the UI is decent with a controller scheme, it could be fun nostalgia.

As @expandingman mentioned - I had to refund it because it literally wouldn't even start. Just immediate crashing - countless other reports of the same, on the steam discussions, protondb, basically everywhere.

Seems like a fun game, I had a good time with the demo as well, but LOL at these devs. Just what on earth.

@liam - I also tried windowed mode, wouldn't work. Didn't try gamescope, but there are just so many bad reports about this game, I just wanted my money back at that point.

@scaine - thanks! And yeah, I know, some of them who knows. I guess I was just listing my favs.

And hahaha, oh hell no that's not the entire list, just my top favs. I was gonna make a top10, but then went past it and just figured what the hell. I just checked and I have a total of 136 games on my wishlist.

The difficulty settings should help a ton with people getting too bored about halfway through. That's where you start to steamroll combat in anything but the highest setting, but the highest setting just becomes a slog. So hopefully these new changes can help with that.

Just whatever you do, stay away from the weapon enchanting table ... it breaks the game and renders all combat nonexistant, like it doesn't even exist. So if you do start enchanting weapons, the game just turns into a walking sim / questing / narrative game.

Since MW is in my top10 of all time, it always makes me happy to see this project keep chugging along. It's like going home to your grandmothers house in the summer when I fire it up.
