For those that for whatever reason love the world of Shadowrun and never picked up the PC games, currently a huge discount as part of the Steam summer sale.

    I played through the second one, Dragonfall, on the Deck and quite enjoyed it. It’s a mouse driven game and I found using the right stick to move the cursor easier than the trackpad. It helps that it’s turn based so there’s no need for precision.

      How did you find reading the text? My spouse has a Steamdeck, and we both have the Shadowrun trilogy, but we played them on linux laptops so much bigger screens. Love those games. Really hope Harebrained schemes take their learning from Battletech and give us as much more graphically updated Shadowrun game in the not too distant future. (ie Close up/more visually interesting camera angles when making moves, taking shots, casting spells etc in combat), rather than just being locked in isometric view all the time…)

        I didn’t find it too bad but it is small so I can see it being more challenging for people with below a erage vision (which will be me in a few years here).

          I use reading glasses, but can still manage small text so long as I’m wearing them. I don’t actually have a steamdeck of my own yet, although my spouse has one.
