    It’s the best game I’ve played in a long time! Phenomenal job from Larian.

    I probably would have waited to buy it in a year or two when the price drops, but after reading up on the dev, the widespread acclaim the game is getting, and the fact that they released it on GOG DRM-free from the get go, I went ahead and bought the damn thing at full price. We need to send the industry a message that good behavior is rewarded. I’m only a few hours in, and I’m seriously overwhelmed, but giddy at the prospect of mastering this thing. Helps that it’s a gorgeous game that runs smooth as butter in 4K…

    Has anyone played it on GeForce Now and can share their experience? I have a potato and was hoping to play this on Stadia, but you all know how that went.

      I’ve been playing it through my SteamDeck on GeForce Now, it looks and runs fantastic! I’ve also hooked my laptop up to my TV, and found the game through GeForce to be a bit blurry there, but otherwise runs just as well.

        Is there a benefit to doing this instead of just running it natively on SD? The store page says it’s SD verified.

        Guessing you get higher resolution? Does it matter if playing handheld only vs big screen?
