The Steam deck is very quick though. I just paused Like a Dragon Gaiden and it took about 2 seconds to go to sleep, left it sitting on the table for an hour or so while I did some errands. Picked it back up and hit thepower button and I was back on the pause menu in about another 2 seconds.

Steam Deck “sleep” is more like locking your phone than it is like putting a Windows PC to sleep

LotR MMO in the works, but they also made New World and Crucible

How does the open world affect it? One of the reasons I liked Zombies mode in the earlier CoDs was being able to do quick maneuvers through tight spaces and really getting the game down to a muscle memory to see how far you could go.

I’m all for people buying what they enjoy playing, so if someone genuinely enjoys CoD I’m excited for them that they get some new stuff to play.

What I don’t get is the constant group of people buying it every year and complaining. Like, guys, if you don’t like the product you’re buying, stop buying the next product from the same place until they fix what you hate about it.

There’s literally tens of thousands of video games out there. You’ll be fine if you don’t play one of the most creatively bankrupt franchises in the industry, I promise.

Mostly just Valve specific software implements to make the experience better. SteamOS has a really good suspend/resume sleep feature where you can just power off the Deck during a game like any other console, then when you hit the power button again it just lights back up to where you were in the game.

Not sure if that’s in any other distro

The only way I will ever begin to even attempt to trust Konami again is if they license the SH IP out to Kojima so he can Del Toro and the gang can finish Silent Hills.

We more or less got HL3 in Half Life: Alyx. People can deride it for “not being a real Half Life game” because they personally don’t like VR or something, but it’s pretty much HL3

No thanks, I’d rather just buy it for $6 on Steam and actually have the product in a good platform with all my other games.

They’re a public company. their shareholders are the customers they have to please. Not you.

This is my plan. It’s gonna take a while but I plan on grabbing the Final Fantasy I-VI Pixel Remaster bundle on Steam when the summer sale starts and just go from there.

I even kinda wanna play Mystic Quest

It pains me to see so many people praise the acquisition ofr Microsoft to become “competitive” again.

Bro Microsoft is a trillion+ dollar company. They can spend their own fucking money making studios. If they can’t, that’s their problem. Letting them swallow up long time multi platform studios just to make their long running multi platform games Xbox exclusive is not the answer to that problem.
