Same. Not because it isn't necessarily worth it, but because I'm broke.

Thanks for this! I just got home from work and was about to do some research on which version I needed to get things working.

Also I have to be done with my playthrough by the time we get great mods that add infinite replayability.

I am sorry to hear that. My cat got diagnosed with a heart condition too recently. It just sucks. I recommend taking a few days off if you can and spending some quality time with your doggo.

Best wishes to you and your dog, dear stranger.

That sucks! My pupper had to have surgery after eating a sock, it's the worst feeling. Hope he gets better

I turned it to proton experimental and set everything to low and it's OK at 40 so far. You get lots of effects early so it might stay stable-ish.

Not great. Have to drop it down to 540 with the Deck's FSR because the in game FSR makes it look incredibly blurry. Also, the FPS cap in game sucks, so you have to do it using the Deck, which adds a ton of input lag.

I wish there was a way to find the actual download size. It says 100+ gigs in the system requirements, which actually put me off from it on a metered connection. 54 is much more doable.

Whatever you do, DON'T get all the way to nearly completing a character and then change subrace. 😭 Back to zero.

Can you add it as a non steam game and force proton experimental? That's what worked for me for the steam version.

No, there are references and stuff to the others but it is a self contained story.

No, as far as I know there are just some references to the older games. But to understand the story they are not necessary. A general knowledge about Dnd is helpful though.

Did you miss the memo not to allow it to just update the EA version?
