I’m having similar problems with Tears of the Kingdom. At first I really liked the changes to the game but after 5 - 10 hours I lost any enthusiasm to play it. I kind of remembered the experience playing BOTW which I really fought hard to try and like too.

It’s not just the weapon or combat system… I just struggled to care about anything after a while.

I wrote a long rambling post that I decided to summarise instead. I love that it’s basically a PC laptop with all of the flexibility that comes with it, that’s smaller, light and portable enough that I can I take everywhere.

But more importantly, it’s gaming focused - the controls are great and it’s fantastic for emulation and weird use cases, like running Interstate 76 with 3DFX support and the correct framerate.

I love that I can replace the hard drive or install whatever I want.

Not what you’re asking for, but another option is to use a DualShock 4 controller which also supports touchpad (which can be divided in left/right if you want). I’ve found a pretty decent amount of community support and often use the touchpad (or gyro) for mouse games, though it’s not quite as comfortable as the Steam Deck .

(I’m sure Dualsense 5 works just as well but I can only speak to Dualshock 4, which you can find for the cost of a HDMI cable online).

Coloured by my experience as a PS4/PS5 owner, it’s frustrating because no-one ever expected Starfield to run on Switch… But a PS5 is very similar to an Xbox and would run it without an issue.

A lot of people only have room/budget for one “main” device. Sony’s reputation for exclusive story rich games made that an easy choice.

The fact that Bethesda games were available on PlayStation and Xbox in the past makes it feels more like something being taken from us rather than something that was never available to begin with. Even though Starfield is a new IP.

I’ll power through it on my Steam Deck if it runs because I want to play it, but I’m going to remain bitter for some time.

I don’t think this is what you meant, but I remember the night a friend of my dad’s came over and installed Doom (shareware) on our computer with floppy disks. I remember not being allowed to play it at first and then, when I finally was, being mesmerised by it. Up until that point I’d been playing Wolfenstein 3D and thought that was as good as it gets. Textured floors, ceilings, stairs and exploading barrels blew my little mind.

So my tradition is that some version of Doom I or Doom II is on basically everything I have. Android (Delta Touch as I love the voxel mod), Switch, Steam Deck - whenever I have a free moment and want to play something but I don’t know what it is, I probably bash out a few levels of Doom.

It’s perfect to just pick up and play and for some reason I never grow tired of it… which is weird as I generally don’t replay games unless I really like them.

Creep is a useful feature to turn on/off though, even if it’s mimicking something.

But yeah, I think it’s going to be an exciting time for a while as ideas and features are thrown around. Old conventions will die as new ones are born.
