I'm just downloading it to my Steam Deck as I bought advanced access to the game. I'll let folks know how it goes.

And before anyone jumps on my neck about buying advanced access:

  • I waited until review scores came out
  • Even then I was originally planning to wait a few weeks until launch but with Steam refunds, I figured I can play for half an hour to get a good feel of the game
  • Not only is this Konami's first good game in ages, I dare say this is also the industry's first good game in ages. RE4 was excellent, but the OG was great and Capcom at that point knew how to do well. I cannot say the same for Konami/Bloober.
  • I'm someone who is lucky enough to have enough disposable income where a purchase like this doesn't really negatively affect me financially.

I hadn't heard about Molyneux in a hot minute, and now I'm quite glad I've lived in a bubble away from that man's crap.

I think Valve has the capacity to make some truly excellent stuff, but they only seem to care if it increases their wallets in a significant way.

After Architect, I'm very cautious about any Valve multiplayer game as it is bound to become infected with ways to extract money (or "value", as Gabe Newell puts it) from the customer.

NGL I was quite sold on the daytime building the town up, nighttime prevent it from being destroyed,

But then it went into customising clothes, food, houses, etc and it just lost me. I don't care about that. I don't want to micro-manage each aspect of my citizens down to the individual clothes/ingredient/brick etc.

I never understood why Molyneux is so big on the idea of customisation - it seems to get in the way of the games grander vision...

YEEESSSSS!!! Man I love this game!!

Nice choice! Would you like them to start afresh or would you like them to continue on from a specific game?

I've heard a fair bit about this game, but never really played it. I may try to get a copy for my Steam Deck. Which one would you recommend for a first timer?

I completely forgot about Whiskey. Managed to get GTA V running at 120FPS on it, which was (and still is, IMHO) absolutely mindblowing.

Huh. Thank you very much for clearing that up - I don't really watch LTT anymore (not really for a long time, even before the whole i n c i d e n t) so it's great to have some perspective.

Shame, really.

Just so you know, you can adjust the amount so that Plaion gets absolutely nada:

I'm so glad I waited to see if this would get a finished Steam Deck/Xbox release, only to see it hasn't been finished.

So far, I've got Cities Skylines (fails to run on Steam Deck), SimCity 4... and now I have SimCity 3000 thanks to the EA bundle, which I've been playing around with. These old games, while may not super complex or graphically amazing, are actually feature complete and virtually bug-free, compared to the new games of late.

Save your money and buy the SimCity 3000/4 games instead. In my experience, they have more depth and challenge than Cities Skylines 1 (can't say much about CS2).

my man :D

Absolutely love Bejewelled. Bejewelled 3 is my vice, to be precise.
