I really love how SquareEnix is putting effort into making their games work well on Steam Deck.
I love it everytime I see a big company trying to ensure their game runs well on Deck. Companies caring about performance on a linux device at all is wild.
On the other hand, it’s a lowest common denominator they can target. “It runs well on the Deck! We’ve done our job.” and the fact that it sold a lot means it’s a market that it’s probably worth the investment (can’t imagine it’s that much) in making a game work. After all any optimization for the Deck also translates into similarly modest hardware being able to run the game…
Not that I complain! Completely gave up on Windows a few months ago lol
I’ll take it if that means companies start optimizing their games better.
Well, let's wait and see until the actual release.
The first part of the remake was not exactly a great port (not on the release day anyway).
Hooray! My steam deck can play it! Unlike my PS5 with its failing GPU
Wait whaaat? How is it failing? I'm really curious to know your experience!
Well I did some research when I purchased ff7 rebirth on PS5 and I tried everything on the troubleshooting page to get it to work, I would launch the game and it would immediately crash. I went down the rabbit hole and found similar symptoms on reddit and people had posited that the GPU was failing resulting in a game crash. Now I didn't dig into what specifically caused it to fail but it seemed to revolve around games that were graphics hogs. Which lines up with the fact that the GPU could be failing.
Is this part 2 of 3 or part 2 of 2?
I think part 2 of 3, but I'm not completely sure.
2 of 2. That's what the "Final" in the title means.
Edit: They wouldn't have named it "Final" if they intended to make more games!
Edit 2: Final means "Last" in English. It's a clue that this is the final chapter of the series!
Definitely not 2/2, could be 2/3 or 2/4
It's 2 of 3
Funny story: I started playing this on the PlayStation back in the day, a couple of years after it had come out and cemented its reputation. I did the intro mission in the reactor and then all of the characters were stood in a room doing exposition and what not. I was quite enjoying it.
Then the doorbell rang. I must've only been gone for a couple of minutes but when I got back everyone had vanished and I had no idea where they'd gone or what I was supposed to be doing.
Rather than replaying that first 30 minutes I just turned it off and never played it again. Truly the best of times.
remake ran great on the deck for me too! i played it on the ps5 already but i loved having it on my pc/steam deck so i can bring it with me
Most overrated game ever.
The video is okay, but without knowing the resolution or graphical concessions made, we don't really have a good idea of how it looks.
I really want it to look and run great! Let's wait and see.
I'm so fucking stoked, remake was a blast and I've heard this had some QoL improvements.
Imma binge watch FFVII machinabriged again to get warmed up.
Do they continue on with your save game when you finish the previous one? Also, Intergrade is the first one before this right?
I've been waiting for them to release most of the parts before getting into it
i've been fight the urge to play it again/watch videos because i want to go into next week being able to experience it again for the first time. i know it won't be the same but i loved it so much <3
Ok, that's pretty exciting! I'll have to make a ton of room on my steam deck though lol
