@pawb.socialAhh right thanks for confirming. When I last moved to beta, none of the buttons would work and I could only use the touchscreen. I thought that was quite odd considering beta seemed to work fine for others. Any idea what could've caused that?
Is there a way to do a clean installation of the OS without wiping all your downloads? I'd be tempted to do this as I think compound updates over the last two years have caused a few issues (I've got the original steam deck)
Yeahhh the boss fights weren't that great - just dodge attacks, fire, repeat. I did enjoy the final boss though!
That sounds really fun! The combat in the game feels best when each hit hits hard. So satisfying
Funnily enough I was looking to try one of the recent Assassin Creed games (Black Flag was my last). I heard good things about AC Odyssey, but it also sounded a bit overwhelming in its scale. Ghost of Tsushima perfectly filled this niche and was way better than any AC game I'd played before - I'm really glad I gave it a go!
I can understand that feeling regarding the activities of GoT. I skipped a fair amount of the side content and focused on the stuff I found interesting (such as the mythic tales), which I think helped. The 'main' side missions that involved specific characters I thought were quite engaging. What difficulty are you playing on? Perhaps it's worth bumping it up to make the combat harder.
Have you played Ace Attorney or Danganronpa? It's definitely going for something similar. I was a bit disappointed by it after the hype I'd seen, but it's still a decent game. If you want something along the same lines of 'weirdness' I'd recommend Hypnospace Outlaw - I think that's a better game overall.
