Persona 5 Strikers fully playable on Steam Deck with this tweak
28 Jul 2023 at 10:01 am UTC

I don't have the game but if someone could test this protonfix for Proton-GE should work.

Just create the file 1382330.py in
~/.local/share/Steam/compatibilitytools.d/GE-Proton8-?/protonfixes/gamefixes/

and inside it:

""" Persona 5 Strikers
Missing voices/sounds in cutscenes
Requires disabling the gstreamer protonaudioconverterbin plugin to get full audio in cutscenes.
fixed by Swish in Protondb
"""
#pylint: disable=C0103

from protonfixes import util

def main():
    util.set_environment('GST_PLUGIN_FEATURE_RANK', 'protonaudioconverterbin:NONE')

Bad news for Echoes of Somewhere [External Link]

The project relies heavily on AI generated content and as such is an experiment in itself. The development progress is documented on the game's website. For good or for worse.
On its Discord [External Link] the developer said:

I sent a message to Valve. It will be a great topic of research to see of the are willing to host this game or not.
Not sure if they will respond or no.
Interesting info about the use of AI in the Dev Blog [External Link]
