Nintendo Switch Port Feedback

[lonkers]

Bought the game on my Switch since it was on sale and i liked the idea of experiencing the quiet apocalypse wherever i go, wanted it on my switch for a while and was surprised when they started mentioning it in roadmaps, even moreso when i saw that cool trailer on the indie direct however many months ago.

But man i did not expect it to run so well! Great framerate, good draw distance, zero crashes, and still looks crazy good!

In comparison i also bought Green Hell, and while a fine game it's nowhere near TLD and especially in its elegance in porting to the Switch. Graphics are just a mess of green, the resolution is not good, framerate is iffy, and it crashed once, although only causing ~15 minutes of progress lost. Not impressive.

But TLD honestly hit it out of the park a little. I really did not expect it to be so good. My only two complaints are that for one the render distance of a couple things feels really off, for instant Rose Hip bushes only render at about 15-20 yards away from the character. Second being the game will freeze up for a second or two when it autosaves. Doesn't make much of a difference when entering a building, but it gets kind of annoying when every time i eat my bear meat i get a pause because the game saves because i got 1% parasite risk.

Regardless I've seen some games do just awful on the Switch (ARK is an utter garbage heap of a port) but this game did insanely well. I very well might move my TLD playing over to my switch on a permanent basis. Job extremely well done, money extremely well spent! Thank you!

I also recently bought it for my Switch light and I wholeheartedly agree! Feels nice to sit back and relax while playing.

As for my complaint, I really wish the gyro aim had its own sensitivity slider. It may just me, but it feels way too sensitive...

Also I think the quick stats and pausing are both binded to the + button

Yeah the gyro aiming just didn't really work for me so i just turned it off.

I've had no problems with quick stats, it's bound to - for me.

Too bad the game is not on GeforceNow.. would make an additional portable version for PC gamers unnecessary.

Oh! Did not notice. Got to check it out for when i am on the road again. Good news for once.
