I’ve been playing this on deck for the last couple days and I wish their controller scheme was better. I end up solely using the right trackpad as a mouse because the d-pad and abxy aren’t mapped helpfully by default.

It’s a great successor to the first game and plays well on PC, but where I would think a controller would shine in using the UI I just find a clunky mapping scheme.

Hell yeah. I bought it a while ago and put it on the back burner when I realized there was no controller support. I'll have to boot it back up!

Still no Linux support. Lazy fucks are just using Steam Play to get Steam Deck verified.

Good Linux ports are great, but realistically most of the Linux native games in my collection run worse than if I force the same game to run through proton.

Good native versions take more work than most devs are able/willing to give with the size of the Linux community. If devs will actually give attention to and make sure the proton versions of their games run well, that's a better outcome than the state of Linux gaming up until now.

And hopefully Linux user base will grow enough that we're worth actual maintained native ports in the future, but until that happens we don't need to be hostile towards devs for using an easier method to make sure their games are available on Linux.

Literally what are you even on about

I'll gladly take a good Proton support over a barely working native port.
