  • I’m currently playing Betrayal At Krondor on my old Celeron PC. I played a couple of chapters a few years ago but I left it there, so I’ve started again and I’m on chapter 2. Since the game is slow and mostly text based, I think its gameplay has aged quite well. I’m playing it with MT-32 sound and music thanks to my MT32-Pi.

    I’m also replaying Undertale on my PS Vita, it looks great on its OLED screen.





  • I’d mainly play indie and AA games on it, alongside emulation.

    How good is the trackpad? It’s an important point for me. It’s quite smaller than the Deck’s and I read SteamOS still has problems with it, so I guess I would install Bazzite or CachyOS if it’s fully functioning.

    Edit: I just realized that you’re talking about the OG Legion Go, not the S. The trackpads should be better than the Go S’ small one.

    Edit 2: But the OG Go is quite more expensive and outside my budget, so It’s be Deck OLED vs GO S. The Go is a no-go (sorry).

    Edit 3 (Is this going to end up being a saga?): I thought that I might buy a used Go, it’s another option. The tiny trackpad of the Go S is a bit off-putting, I have a couple weeks to think it over.







  • The first negative review I found:

    Take-Two and 2K games have updated all their games Terms of Service, turning this game as well as all of their other games into literal spyware.

    Important Info in Terms of Service:

    • Mods are a bannable offense

    • Display of Cheats/Exploits is bannable

    • Forced arbitration clause and a waiver of class action and jury trial rights for all users residing in the United States and any other territory other than Australia, Switzerland, The United Kingdom, or The Territories of The European Economic Area

    If all this is true, it’s a bit much. I don’t touch anything that comes from Gearbox anyway, but I still find it concerning.
