I’m kind of surprised they went for the Switch/Tablet form-factor for this instead of targeting the phone scale
It seems like every one of these new handhelds is trying to have the best specs in the market no matter what. The ROG Ally was sold as a more powerful steam deck, and now the Legion Go comes in with a better screen and battery. It does seem really big, though.
Pretty excited to get my hands on this game 5 days later! Reviews are surprisingly more split than I expected, with some calling it an easy 10/10 while others call it shallow. The general impressions are: If you like Fallout, you’ll love this game. I like Fallout, so I’m in.
By the way, IGN gave this game a 7/10, which is a new one for them because they hand out 9/10s like candy.

Super impressive reviews so far. I think we can expect the average score to go down slightly more as more mainstream journalists find the time to play it, but still huge props for getting such high praise.
Edit: The average rating has since gone from 95 to 90
Of course this had to come out in the most busy time of the year… I’m already trying to finish Blasphemous 2 before starfield comes out…
There isn’t any outrage or anything, I wouldn’t feel too bad about it because it seems like an extremely generic shooter with mictrotransactions and menus that look exactly like Destiny. It just had terrible marketing and was very uninspired.
Also the minimum specs are so high that most people can’t play it, and it runs very poorly.
For what it’s worth there’s an open source launcher that is 100x better than Epic’s official one called Heroic. You can use that if you want to avoid their slow, ad-spamming store.
Now if only they could backport those features to Elden Ring!
I wish… Elden ring actually has support for these features but you can’t enable them while playing online because it tampers with files. There are mods for enabling widescreen and unlocked FPS that have been around for ages and work perfectly.
