As a big time L4D2 player (over 3,000 hrs), this game was such a disappointment. I played the demo they released and it don't hold a candle near the Valve game. And their claim of fame of being "the creators of L4D" is a scam. As a YT video pointing every problem with it, the real true slogan is "the creators of Evolve".

Quoting: RussianNeuroMancerThis is the right decision. It's absolutely crazy what Russian government do right now, and not only government - around 70% citizens believe in propaganda, and honestly wish Ukrainians death. There is just no point to release this DLC until Russia citizens change their mind, and I don't expect it to happen anytime soon.

Mind you is not just Russians that eat their propaganda. A bunch of people here in Brazil that identify themselves as leftists, believe in it too. Is not all of them, but enough to be annoying.

Quoting: slaapliedjeBut at least one thing remains the same... non-ASUS motherboards sucked in the past and they still kind of suck :P

I have 2 Asus mobos here that beg to differ. Both stopped working right after their 1 year warranty expired... Meanwhile, I also have mobos from other manufacturers (like Gigabyte) that still going strong after a 10 year period.

You said twin stick but the footage looks like it was made with mouse and keyboard in mind. I was burned before by this, but since it has a demo, I will give it a try before buying it.

Is your PC okay? We are in a very unfortunate time to buy new parts.

I started in this type of game not by playing Worms, but a old opensource game called Atomic Tanks, available in your favorite distro repositories. It is a nice distraction when you are bored at work and card games don't give you any kick.

Quoting: fagnerlnWould be nice if the dock had a more powerful GPU (eGPU?) that the deck switches to it when it's docked.

Gaming performance would be bottlenecked by the quadcore CPU. Youtube Channel ETA Prime kept their promise of testing a external GPU via the m.2 slot. While there were gains in most games, it is clear that the CPU cannot keep up with something much more powerful than the iGPU.

This actually demonstrates that the components of the Steam Deck APU were carefully chosen, to make the best use of its 15W power limit.

Quoting: slaapliedjeOooh, I recently watched some builds where people put it under a mechanical keyboard for a look back at the wedge computers of old! And I thought "I want one!" and now they do this....

For a while I'm lusting for something like that. I almost got a Raspberry Pi 400, but held back because I would hate had to tipe on a keyboard layout other than the one I'm accustomed to (Brazilian ABNT2).

I wished they made available a easier difficulty for those games. I managed to finish it twice, but comes a time it gets old dying over and over again just to see the "real ending", so I ditched it. After playing this and Cyber Shadow back to back, I got burned out of games with masochistic levels of difficulty.

The older I get, less patience I have with excessive difficulty in games. Not going to buy new DLCs for this one or any other game of this type from now forward. Life is too short to expand on games like this. Which is too bad, because it is a good game.

Offline mode for AAA titles is pretty much dead by now, since publishers want to milk anything with the label "game" in it. Is simply out of GOG hands. If they want to survive, they had to bend over for the publishers demands or not have a game to sell.
