Steam Deck Verified picks for the 2023 holiday season
22 Dec 2023 at 12:44 pm UTC Likes: 2

I've been game-hopping since finishing BG3. But I will try to play, and finish, Stray and Sifu over the holidays on the Deck. If time allows, I would also like to start Norco, or perhaps give another run to Pentiment.

P.S: All of them Deck verified.

Yay, I can finally masturbate with one hand like God intended! (Without my friends being able to comment in my achievements.)

P.S: This is trying to be a joke, but happy to remove if someone is offended or thinks is inappropriate.

The Steam Deck % is deceptive, at least in my case, as it only computes the gameplay while being online and that has been the way I used it the most this year (flights and commuting).

I didn't know that Grand Theft Auto was the sequel to Minecraft. :tongue: :wink:
With all due respect, for me Minecraft is not a game :grin:

No, seriously, I thought GTA was the first xD

I guess this game will have at least 50% of the audio in Spanish, being based in Miami? :tongue:

Symphony of War: The Nephilim Saga: Legends
Not the longest name I've seen for a Japanese game, but those two colons in the title makes my OCD go wild.

So what the heck is an 'indie game' nowadays anyway?

Quoting: KimyrielleStrictly spoken, any game that's developed by a studio not fully independent in their decisions is not an indie game. Which is funnily why Baldur's Gate 3 (a clear AAA title) qualifies as indie, because Larian is a fully independent studio, despite its size.

The community seems to have adopted a slightly altered definition of the term, though. An indie game seems to be anything that's a labor of love and has the "Not made by big business" vibe to it.
That's not entirely correct. During BG3's development, I believe, Larian sold 30% of the business to Tencent.

Aside of that, strictly speaking, Larian did not have full independence with BG3. I'm pretty sure Hasbro and WotC had requirements too.
