Amazing. The OLED steam deck colors are visually stunning, gameplay so fun. Really well balanced combat vs. exploration, great little story sequences and very Japanese. Did not even notice the time go by. What an age we live in.

That's awesome. Here is a podcast episode where some Japanese leftists talk about the game if you are interested.

The first 8 hours were pretty entertaining. Over all I thought it was kinda mid considering all the praise it got when it came out. The story and characters are pretty 2 dimensional. I slowly kinda got this bad taste in my mouth because I realized who I was fighting against and who I was fighting for. Fuck imperialist Japan. Long Live 成吉思汗

It took you 8 hours of playing as a japanese samurai resisting a mongol invasion on a Japanese island to realize who you were fighting for? Sad.

Go back to reddit or work on reading comprehension.
