If this comes to the Steam Deck - and it's somewhat playable - it's an instant-buy for me... I already have it on my "wish list" for my PlayStation 5, but I'd much rather get it for my Steam Deck / laptop.

It's got loads of eye candy, and they say it's a great game, too.

I wish they'd make the entire (Fighting Fantasy) library available like this... I grew up reading Fighting Fantasy books extensively (I owned the first thirty or forty books!), long before Steve Jackson and Ian Livingstone were role-playing game gods or had started the Games Workshop (well, in Australia at least - I think it was in it early days overseas).

Nice to see Official Steam Deck support though, considering these are better-suited to mobile devices rather than (traditional) computers.

I have the original "the sims" it comes with 1 CD.
Now it requires 17GB? How it comes to this?
I'm expecting about 2GB or less for the expansions. But it's insane.

I don't know what size it is and I'm too lazy to check, but I still have the entire collection of 'The Sims' and 'The Sims 2' on CD-ROM still, and it was like, six or seven discs for each (the main game plus all of the expansions)... So 17GB doesn't seem all that crazy to me.

I wonder why they've never shown the ''Wolfenstein' games any love... Yeah, Doom is the Big Daddy of their early games; but (classic) 'Wolfenstein' is all but forgotten.

So, what you're saying is that it's time for another playthrough

I just bought this for my shiny, new Steam Deck, so I'm up for this.

On my 'PlayStation' consoles, I've put over 10,000 hours into this game (and then some)!

I wish they'd make the 'multiplayer' component available for the Steam version though; that'd be fantastic.

However, if you're on a SteamOS-like distribution, you might need to tell the game you're not on a Steam Deck, otherwise it will give you low visuals.

Wait, so it's lowering the graphics settings when run on a Steam Deck?

I can appreciate that a Steam Deck is not going to be as powerful as my laptop... But this implies that the game is going to look like rubbish on my Steam Deck and if that's the case, I will probably give this game a miss for the foreseeable future.

Everyone's raving about Palworld, including at my workplace it would seem, as they were talking about it today... But I really wish they'd work on Steam Deck support.

I'm not gonna lie, I'm certainly keen to pick this up; but whilst there's so many issues with the Steam Deck, which seem to come and go with each update / upgrade of Palworld, I just can't justify it.

So I'll continue to sit here and grumble, until Pocketpair "pull their thumb out" and work on Steam Deck support... If they actually put some effort in (to Steam Deck support), I'll probably even wait until it's not on sale to buy the game (it costs me more, but it's my way of "thanking" developers for Linux or Steam Deck support).

Oh, this looks awesome... I especially like the Firewatch-like art style!

This is on my "wishlist" now, and as long as it supports the Steam Deck, I'll pick it up. :wink:

Wild to see the Playdate still plugging away with 1% of the dev numbers.

Are they referring to that crowd-funded thing with the crank, as well as a black and white screen? That is pretty wild, considering how basic the device is!

It's part 2, of what will be a trilogy.

This.

They're remaking the original 'Final Fantasy VII' from scratch; but due to the scope of the project, cough cough a convenient excuse to make more money cough cough they decided to do it as a trilogy of three titles instead of just one title.
