My only complaint so far is that meta progression seems to require large amounts of play time.

[-] instamat@lemmy.world 12 points 11 months ago

One. Hunnerd. Per. Cent. Luckily I have no life and a steamdeck so this wasn’t an issue for me.

How well does it run in the Deck?

[-] grayhaze@lemmy.world 3 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

Most games built using the Godot engine run flawlessly on the Steam Deck. It's much lighter in resource requirements than the likes of Unity or Unreal.

[-] yoyolll@lemmy.world 3 points 11 months ago

So far been running at a solid 720p60 even capped at 6 watts. No bugs that I've noticed.

[-] RobertOwnageJunior@lemmy.world 3 points 11 months ago

How worth it is the steam deck at the current price point? Thinking of buying one.

[-] chunkystyles@sopuli.xyz 3 points 11 months ago

I love mine. Just depends on what you want. It's an emulation powerhouse. It's going to struggle with AAA games. Lower graphics and older games will work great, for the most part.

[-] 9point6@lemmy.world 3 points 11 months ago

I've had one for a little under a year and I pretty much use it most days. Typically I'm playing more indie titles, but it'll play most games at a playable frame rate with a bit of settings tweaking

[-] Silvus@lemmy.world 1 points 11 months ago

I've had one since a few months after release. For the most part it has been a brotatodeck. Play at least one game most days. I put a fair number of hours of HOT into it last week. I have a few most hardest level brotato characters to finish. Then I'll focus on HOT. It has totally been worth the money for me. I was playing the led switch and basically quit when I got the deck. There is still a lot of battlebit being played on my PC, but if I'm going anywhere the deck comes.

Best value per buck you can get in gaming IMO. It's super versatile, just works and all around brilliant machine. I use it as home desktop as well.

[-] instamat@lemmy.world 1 points 11 months ago

I can’t recommend it enough. The compatibility rating on the steam game pages is pretty conservative but that’s a good indication on what you can expect to play. I installed emudeck recently so that opens up a lot of possibilities.

[-] Weylandyuta@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago

Very well, in both game mode and if you plug into a 1080p monitor at a desk.

[-] instamat@lemmy.world 1 points 11 months ago

Very well. I’ve had a few random crashes but performance wise no complaints.

[-] messem10@lemmy.world 5 points 11 months ago

That is where you just use Cheat Engine to hack in gold for yourself. Why go through the treadmill to unlock items from the well when you can just give it to yourself?

[-] EthicalDogMeat@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago

Cheat engine is one of the best things for modern gaming. I love many roguelites but when it gets too slow to progress, I'm using chest engine to make things more fun.

[-] ABCDE@lemmy.world 5 points 11 months ago

And there are only three halls. Feel like I've done everything now so haven't picked it up in a bit.

[-] Noxvento@lemmy.world 4 points 11 months ago

I bet more is coming fast. They made a lot of money.

[-] ABCDE@lemmy.world 1 points 11 months ago

Hopefully! I need a reason to pick it up again, high scores or other progress indicators. Oh, while we're talking, can the walls of soldiers on the bridge/aqueduct/viaduct be killed?

[-] Noxvento@lemmy.world 1 points 11 months ago

I don't know. Just started 3 days ago. ;-)

[-] instamat@lemmy.world 1 points 11 months ago

The green ghost guys? You can push them back to make a hole in the line but I haven’t killed any yet.

[-] ABCDE@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago

Yeah I've done that with the fire blast perk, just wanted to know if it was possible!

[-] desmosthenes@lemmy.world 14 points 11 months ago

suuuuuper fun

[-] Noxvento@lemmy.world 5 points 11 months ago

Much more fun than Diablo 4 for me.

[-] yumcake@lemmy.world 5 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

I have been absolutely hooked on this game. I loved Vampire survivors and Holocure and this was a great blend of those games with a diablo aesthetic.

The part that makes it so good is the sharply tuned enemy design to feed you levels steadily with interesting enemy movement patterns to dodge. Well done! Has such a good balance of challenge and progression.

[-] ozymandias117@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago

I’m a similar vein, I’ve been enjoying “20 Minutes Till Dawn,” too

[-] yumcake@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago

Yeah I have that too! 20 minutes to dawn leans much harder into the bullethell genre and less about the skinnerbox progression aspect of vampire survivors. It's much more challenging with fewer ways to make successive runs easier. I should get back into that one since a lot of updates were probably made. Back then it felt like the starting pistol and character as stronger than all the unlocked weapons and characters.

[-] forksandspoons@lemmy.world 3 points 11 months ago

Was eyeing this for a little bit but this post might be the one that makes me buy it

[-] LetMeEatCake@lemmy.world 3 points 11 months ago

I grabbed this in the recent Steam sale. I love it. The Diablo-esque atmosphere was something that I particularly enjoy. The trait system along with the memory+doubling flasks can be "abused" to create some satisfyingly powerful characters.

I put a good amount of time into it already. I think I'll leave it back on my shelf until they have their 1.0 release, whenever that might be — end of the year?
