Very briefly tested the AppImage. It complained that my dump of the game wasn’t a supported version (SHA-1 hash mismatch), but the intro ran. For more I would have had to plug in a gamepad.

    Already shared my thoughts on games@lemmy.world, but I was playing on Linux, so:

    Been playing this, and it’s great! Started right up at 9x resolution, wasn’t too hard to setup a high quality texture pack, and the game is looking sharp at 4k/120 without any issues!

    Things look great, and this launching with features like gyro aim, free cam, and QoL like fast climbing and skipping that damn rupee cutscene is phenomenal.

    Also, man, can’t wait to come back to this in a year or two with a randomizer and whatever other features they can pack in here.

          I agree, it’s looking fantastic so far. Dual-stick controls is so much nicer than the weird c-stick for first person thing. BTW do you know if there’s a way to get the shader version of the texture pack working? I assume there isn’t but thought I’d ask.

            Don’t think so! The texture pack comes with its own custom version of Dolphin, or at least settings for one, so you could look into that if you really like, although emulating that would definitely have downsides compared to Dusk.

            Dusk already punches up some visual effects, like better quality bloom. Will probably continue to improve over the next year or so as well, if you wanted to wait for an even better experience.
