So I just read this book on history of games called "Blood, Sweat and Pixels" and was fascinated by the chapter on The Witcher 3 and mostly how the team put in so much thought and care in every single side quest. And seems that there are a lot of moral decision to be made on each adventure. So I finally decided to give it a try. Got any advice for me?

Interesting. I found the game to be basically boring without the extended difficulties.

The combat is just generally unintuitive. Which early in the game is frustrating. And if you’re like me and spend weeks between sessions you can forget all the timing and buttons you need to press.

Yeah I think I tried like 4 controller layouts on the steam deck before settling on one.

I've heard of people setting up the right track pad to use as a movable area zoom, so you could actually read the tiny text. You try setting that up?

I didn't have an issue reading small text on the Deck.

I will say that I found the experience of playing Witcher on the deck to be an absolute pleasure.

I had to get kinda squinty with some of the herbs and plant descriptions.
