Oh just wait, at some point the game also gives you an entire fish farm to manage as well! It's a whole different area and interface, etc... That kinda bummed me out as well. I really don't want that, but now I guess I have to manage it?
Also, I had NO IDEA I was wasting a ton of food each night by not selecting an amount of 1 for every single dish and then enabling "autofill" or whatever that option is. Very poorly explained. I could have made SO much more money, but oh well.

Quoting: bisbyxI wanted a mindless diving game. The restaurant minigame had enough complexity (or at least perceived complexity in the moment) that it made me put it down, because I didn't want to think too hard. Haven't picked it back up yet, though I intend to eventually.

If you like retro fps (I dislike the term boomer shooter) then this is a must buy! I'm having an absolutely blast in the game. PURGE THE HERETIC

I honestly think this idiotic naming convention is one of the big reasons it had mediocre sales. It was an AMAZING game (still my all time fav from Arkane) but I think a ton of people just thought it was a remake of the 2006 game. The former game was average at best, but when people saw the same name and looked at a screenshot and saw it was an fps, they just passed on it.

Very exciting! I love the openmw project. This might actually convince me to get another playthrough started. I'd love to experience the Tamriel content.

This seems awesome, but I still have no desire to move away from my bequiet case. Best I've ever used. In the future though I'll definitely keep this in consideration for another build.

Similar experience here! Very exciting! My list is:
Sea of Stars, Shadow Gambit, Steamworld, CyberKnights. Mostly I'm super pumped to fire up CyberKnights because the Trese devs are just gold.

Quoting: PhiladelphusI knew there was a game I was looking forward to which had a demo out at this, but, checking now, it appears no fewer than five games* on my Wishlist have demos to check out.
*Viewfinder, One Lonely Outpost, Shadow Gambit: The Cursed Crew, Station to Station, and Jumplight Odyssey, for the curious.

Here's how to run Diablo 4 on Steam Deck

Just a note for my fellow players: I had some troubles with a super laggy battle net launcher. Sometimes it would just take FOREVER to launch and become unresponsive. I did some research, and changed my dns from isp default to cloud flares 1.1.1.1 and it fixed it immediately. Apparently battle net is finicky with dns.

I absolutely love the Trese Bros as devs, so I'll try anything by them. Thank you for the notice, I've now wishlisted!
Diablo 4 on Steam Deck is quite magnificent (and desktop Linux too!)

I have a 6800xt, so very similar gpu, and I normally get 120+ fps, but randomly (seemingly in dungeons) it'll drop down to around 40s and 50s and get stuttery. But then if I transition to a different area, it'll be gone. I have no idea why lol. I think it just needs a few patches to work out the optimization. Overall I think it runs REALLY well and looks wonderful.
I'm running it through steam with proton experimental, and you can see the rest of my stats on my profile if that helps.

Quoting: HellriderWhat graphics settings on desktop, installation method, and runners?
I have a 6750XT, battle.net installed through lutris and Diablo installed through that. Latest wine GE, VKD3D 2.9. The game is set to high (1440p) and starts at an easy 120 FPS but performance will slowly degrade until eventually after a bit of playtime the frame times get wildly erratic and the FPS is down into the 40s with very stuttery movement. Dropping all settings does nothing at that point.
Also Fedora 38 but using Gnome. I guessaybe the next steps are trying to install through Steam instead. Or maybe try installing KDE on the remote possibility it's mutter weirdness, which has been known to happen.
