Credit where it's due, Bluetooth headphones have come a long way. I like the ones I have now. That said, removing the jack and micro SD slots was extremely anti consumer and they should come back.

I do feel Halls of Torment does a good job of separating itself from Vampire Survivors. There is actual aiming and an attack button if you want and there's Diablo style gear you can equip before and during runs.
What it is not good at is visual clarity. I very frequently take damage or even die because I couldn't see something over all the stuff my character was throwing out. VS also has this problem but it's lessened by the fact that by that point everything's probably dead in 2 seconds anyways.
Who needs Diablo IV or maybe even PoE when we have Grim Dawn and Chronicon.
Finished up Banjo Kazooie last night. Always good for a quick playthrough. Still BG3 with my wife as time allows. Not quite sure what solo game to pick up next.
Hopefully I'm not being overly optimistic in agreeing. I love my Deck but am not impressed at all in the rest of the handheld market. Being stuck on Windows and not having necessary tools like the trackpads means that I'm not hopeful for the market if the Steam Deck doesn't continue.
Yeah we played some today and still dip below 30 in act 2, so I'm guessing the final act is still in rough shape. Still managed to feel much smoother, though, so hopefully they continue the trend.
I feel like I'm in some crazy minority here, thinking that none of these competitors are even worth considering without trackpads and back buttons. Handheld PCs just don't work without them.
Maxing out AA was a big help for me, with there being some weirdness due to the option resetting to off on game restart. I'm not sure I'd that's been fixed in the latest patch.
Have you played since the 2nd patch in the last few days? From what I've heard it's a reasonable improvement but I haven't booted it up yet.
Really unfortunate. There was such missed potential in Awesomenauts, imo. Despite them being an indie team I really think they could have taken the game so far. They had the passion but just made too many mistakes along the way.
It'll be super interesting to see how shapeshifting fits into the dual class setup.
Now I wonder how long it stays online before all the money the asked people to throw at it literally turns into nothing. Kinda surprised a mobile Mario Kart didn't have more legs on it.
