27 Jul 2023 at 2:54 pm UTC

Quoting: EgonautI don't know where that 75GB come from, it only consumes 39GB here.
Fantastic to hear! :grin: I wonder why the Steam page lists it as 75GB? :unsure:

Hopefully this means it has been properly tested with a smooth 30FPS at a minimum. As we've seen quite a few times though, some titles seem to get Verified for Steam Deck even though they clearly have glaring issues. Like our friends at SteamDeckHQ pointing out the Verified title Remnant II having really bad performance.
With any luck, that won't be the case here;

Minimum:
Requires a 64-bit processor and operating system
OS: Windows 10 (version 1909 or higher)
Processor: Intel Core i3-8100 or AMD Ryzen 3 3100
Memory: 8 GB RAM
Graphics: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 960 or AMD Radeon RX 470
Storage: 75 GB available space
Additional Notes: SSD Recommended

Recommended:

OS: Windows 10 (version 1909 or higher)
Processor: Intel Core i5-8400 or AMD Ryzen 5 3600
Memory: 16 GB RAM
Graphics: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060 or AMD Radeon RX 5700
Storage: 75 GB available space
Additional Notes: SSD Required
After all, the specs look pretty reasonable, aside from the massive 75GB of storage that's required for it!

Will you be picking it up?
I will be once the price comes down a little bit. :smile:

Quoting: KlaasIt's a wonder that anyone in Australia is still alive.
Come to Australia, you might accidentally get killed [External Link]!

Really, though, it's crazy that the Steam Deck's still not available there. Unless it actually is and a bunch of kangaroos beat up the delivery guys and stole them all, or something. :tongue:

At 75GB it's a chonker, but the rest of it sounds pretty reasonable!

Quoting: jams3223If you wanna support the indie FOSS gaming market buy these games pls, they're made using Godot and they're killing it.

Brotato
Cassette Beast
Halls of Torment
Quoting: MarlockCassete Beasts is indeed awesome!
I'll have to look up the others now!

Godot is such a nice engine for Linux, gotta love how little iissues it causes for us compared to Unity.
Don't forget Ex-Zodiac [External Link], as well! Superb Star Fox spiritual-successor rail-shooter, with native Linux support. Runs great, and plays exactly like I was hoping for. :smile:

Not a game or developer I've ever heard of, but this is worrying stuff as usual - this sort of thing will inevitably add up to something that will negatively affect me in the end, even if it doesn't right now.

Quoting: BelaptirBy the way, I know it's not the same but if you're looking for a nice old school stealth game, try UnMetal, extremely fun and... If you can, play it with the original voices (in Spanish), they are waaaaaay better than the English dub. I couldn't stop laughing during the whole game.
Hehehe! Thanks for the recommendation - this game looks hilarious! :grin:
