I’ve been playing a whole lot of Monster Hunter Rise. It runs really good, great performance and battery life (which makes sense considering it was originally a switch game). It’s my first real Monster Hunter game and I’m having a great time with it.
Only issues I’ve encountered: switching between docked and handheld play causes a minor fps drop until I restart the game. The game also has a utterly bizarre bug where if you’re playing with a controller designated as the 2nd player controller, any monster roar will drop the fps to 0 for like a minute. Super bizarre, no idea what kind of spaghetti code could cause that.
Edit: for anyone interested, Fanatical has a build your own monster hunter bundle right now that’s an incredibly good deal. Can get MH Rise + it’s big Sunbreak expansion for $11, previous best deal I had seen was $18 for the two. They also have MH World and a lot of other past MH games.
It does look like a nice deck game. I only ever played World, but I eventually got tired by the endless grind. How is Rise in this regard?
I recently bought the Cat Quest trilogy. I played the first two on my switch but the third one just came out and Steam did the whole bundle at a discount so I snagged it. Been enjoying replaying the first two before I start on the new one.
Guardians of the Galaxy. FPS is a little sluggish especially first chapter (theres a bug where the whole screen goes black but audio goes through). However, its still fun
Also LIMBO which runs fine on the deck
Just played Limbo and Inside back to back and they’re such amazing games holy eff. And perfect for the deck.
Awesome!! I see its on sale today too! I’ll pick it up! Thanks for the rec
Octopath 2
Kotor and Kotor 2! They are great on the deck!
Is it pretty feasible to install kotor 2 restored content mod? I vaguely remember it being available on steam workshop.
There are instructions for both games on reddit and they even give tips for Linux. Important on Linux is that the directory is set to case insensitive. Otherwise you will have problems because files from several mods are duplicated.
Yeah I don’t necessarily disagree with the idea of making file paths case sensitive (i.e. usr/Folder/ is a different directory than usr/folder and same for files), but it is definitely a big mind fuck coming from an operating system where things aren’t really case sensitive in that way.
