Some of this will have some bias because of my own experience, but for me the best setup has been with:

  • Apple TV 4K - It has apps for both Steam Link and Moonlight, generally has low Bluetooth latency, and the wireless and wired network adapters are great at getting low latency.

  • if you’d rather avoid Apple, the Nvidia Shield is another good option, it supports those apps as well. I just personally found the experience smoother on ATV.

  • the chrome cast ultra can be a good first step. I just can’t remember how different the base model is. But try finding Moonlight app.

Regarding software, Steam Link is the easiest to set up because it is integrated with steam, but sometimes you get encoding artifacts, and you have less control over setting the best bitrate for your network. I do like the network connection graph it has in the configuration settings though.

So check out Sunshine to stream from your pc, supports AMD cards as well. And then the Moonlight app.

Hope you can find what best setup works for you!

Yes, I’ve personally noticed this one, and nagging is definitely the right verb. 😓

Oh man. I didn’t even know a sequel was planned. That could have been cool.

And agreed, more variety of Ubisoft titles would be nice.

Yeah. Similar over here. If it was just me, I would be fine to find alternatives and/or blockers, but me, spouse, and kids… on different devices the ad time adds up.

This price increase sucks though.

These are some deep cuts right here! Thank you for linking and sharing about them!

That’s really helpful to know. Thank you!

Looking forward to checking them out.

I’m interested, but like the other poster said, pricing is steep, so I am waiting on a sale. Generally I like picking up a whole pack and playing sequentially to appreciate the changes and progression in gameplay. But so far I have seen recommendations to go for the third if only going to play one. We will see!

I’ve played and enjoyed smaller scale dungeon crawlers inspired by EO, so it is intriguing to me to see how Etrian does it.

Thanks for posting!

I picked up Fata Morgana a few months ago, at the same time as Steins; Gate. But so far still going through SG (I enjoy VNs but it takes me so long to play them compared to other genres)…

Anyway, I appreciate you mentioning it here, it reminds me that I want to play this one soon!

Yeah! I finally decided to purchase it a few weeks back, but playing on the steam deck was way more hassle than it was worth. Having to learn everything and adjust to the translated bindings was too much.

Looking forward to trying again with this.

Here’s a few that me and my kid (7) seem to enjoy:

  • The Stretchers. She often keeps wanting to go back to this one. It is goofy and captures some of the Simpsons hit and run craziness.

  • Overcooked All you can eat edition. Some of the levels can get tough, though we managed to complete all of them when they were individual games. Still making it though the combined one.

  • Phogs. This one we have actually played on another platform, but I would hope it performs well on the switch.

  • Lovers in a dangerous spacetime. This one can get pretty tough, thankfully there are difficulty options.

Yeah, it basically includes the new intro, ending theme, and the music for the added story.

P5 OST has 110 songs P5R OST has 30

So to get the full P5R soundtrack you'd need to add both, and zipper up the list somehow. :)

That seems pretty cool!
