This game is the reason why a guy [the legendary u/-YoRHa2B-] started working on dxvk, to make this game compatible on linux after it released. Valve hired him and made Proton out of it. The result is the Steam Deck, this remains one of the best games for the SD.
Game runs great on deck, if you don’t mind capping fps at 30, it’ll easily run at close to 10w while looking great.
Really good game! I actually run on Reddit two subs for the series (r/drakengard and r/okbuddyyorha) so it’s really neat to see this recommendation here and it’s pretty solid.
I would say though that this game is a standalone sequel to NieR Replicant (also amazing), and while you can play either in any order, I think the experience is better if played after Replicant. That said, both run pretty well on the Deck and both go on sale often!
Shameless plug, if you like the series, we also have an instance for the series at lemm.ee/c/nier. Anyways
Thank you! :)
This game hurt me. In the best way possible.
Easy recommend. Only wish the game made it clear that

I remember having a blast with this one until I break-up with my GF and just slumped into a period of depression. Might pick it up again now (⸝⸝ᵕᴗᵕ⸝⸝)
Look into the future with the fediverse :)
Gameplay is boring but upskirt shots are great.
