For starters, this runs fantastic on Steam Deck?????

What a fantastic game. Definitely recommend to anyone thinking about buying it.

Coming straight off the back of NieR Automata for me, I'd heard the story was very subpar and it was carried by the flashy combat and hot protagonist, but it really is so much more than that. The vibe is very similar to NieR and has had me hooked from the beginning.

I've not finished the main story so far as I've been incredibly invested in finishing every side quest I can find, and I'm still having an absolute blast.

Story is good enough to keep you engaged, combat is fun and expansive - multiple new skill trees and mechanics unlocking even towards later stages of the game, finding new suits for EVE is fun too. Oh, and fishing is kinda fun as well.

I'd had my eye on this for a good year or so, and I'm so glad I finally pulled the trigger. Will probably be ones of my favourite games I've played this year, and not just because of EVE (it is mostly). Do yourself a favour and play it at least once!
