I was looking at getting some roguelikes / lites (already have ToME, CoQ), unfortunately Cataclysm DDA is not on sale.

Krone Hotel at 90% off looks like a decent choice too. Then there’s Jupiter Hell, which I recently stumbled upon and looks great too.

I’d also like to get some of the FF games, though I’ve played VI, VII, IX and a bit of XII, it would be nice to revisit some of the older ones I haven’t played almost since the PSX era.

An excellent choice. Which model did you opt for?

  1. Had enough rewards points from work to combine with my existing steam wallet to cover all but 9 bucks of it. I’ll upgrade the drive later.

Heck you could upgrade the screen later if you are feeling daring enough!

The most wallet-friendly choice is getting the 64gb model and a SD card or a bigger 2230 SSD.

One of my favorite games of the last years, and also fun to watch someone else play.

Very hyped for this, has anyone splashed for the top end anti glare one? Is it any good?

If you plan on using a screen protector, don’t get the anti glare screen. The anti glare causes a slight blur, and the protector will just add glare back giving you the worst of both. They make etched glass protectors that have the same anti glare effect, but if you put that on the anti glare screen you get double the blur effect.

If you don’t mind popping your deck open, you can get the 64gb version and a 1 or 2tb drive for less than the price of the 512gb model. Watch a video on how to swap the drive first to make sure you feel comfortable. Otherwise, I think going for the 256 and getting a large SD card is your best option. The 64gb model doesn’t really have a lot of space for shaders which can’t be installed on the sd card without installing some mods.

It’s so good and so well balanced. I’ve gone through three calculators and two whiteboards. I wish I could do it for a job.

How is it on the deck?

It is unlikely that Cataclysm ever goes on sale, because the steam release basically is just a donation. You can get the game for free on the official website: https://cataclysmdda.org

There you can also donate other amounts than the Steam price.
