A friend asked me to see how well Watch_Dogs runs on Steam Deck for them. I booted it up today and ended up just spending all day driving around the city and fleeing from the cops for destroying stuff. I took this Screenshot after doing one of the few missions i did. I took it in the Loop section I believe.
I’d be curious to see if you can install the patch that reintroduces the E3 graphics and how that’s handled on the Deck. Not sure on the how-to with SteamOS.
I not too long ago played this game and, while flawed, found it to be a very decent game with a lot of potential. My biggest gripe personally is that it devolves from an engaging and clever stealth game to a mass murder simulator, and the main character isn’t terribly likable by the end. Still, I enjoyed it quite a bit and might even replay it some time.
Good game, had a lot of fun with it. It seems a lot of people didn’t like the game because the graphics got downgraded from what they showd in the first trailers. They only real complaint I have is the handling of cars is weird.
It’s one of the few games where I switch between mouse and controller when on foot vs in a car. They’re damn near undrivable with wasd.
Oh, I was talking about driving with a controller.
Oh, it’s even worse on wasd. It’s like only being able to steer by wild swerving.
That game lets you murder Aisha Tyler for some reason. Like, I thought it would be a “game over” type scenario but nope. Just get the cops on you.
