I’ve been wanting to play Satisfactory on SteamDeck, but the controls/user interface were low quality to the point of unplayability.
I hope they decide it’s okay to highlight things I should trying clicking on. It doesn’t break immersion to live in a sci-fi galaxy where space engineers also have taken some accessibility training.
I really want to play through Satisfactory, so I love to see this effort to make it SteamDeck ready.
My biggest beef with playing it on SteamDeck was related to network connectivity.
I was playing at home and went a long way from base. Then I had to take my daughter to a class and threw the Deck in my backpack to play while I waited for her to finish.
The game opened, said it had lost the connection to the server and killed me. I respawned back at base, thought about how far I’d need to walk to recover my body and noped right out of there to play Vampire Survivors instead. I never returned.
That was a couple of years ago while the game was still in early access. If it’s now possible to play offline, I might give it another go. (It’s a nice game.)
This is an exciting update!
