The Two Trees of Valinor were my first thought as well.

We definitely upped our chair game since then. That's for sure
Indeed. Sometimes it's helpful to filter your thoughts through a different lense, and tarot can spark ideas or aspects you hadn't considered as you try to fit things within the context of the cards you're seeing.
Honestly, the plot points themselves were fine it's the execution that made it terrible. The pacing was off, character interactions and motivations made no sense, yes. But the broad-brush strokes of the plot could have been done well.
My glasses are really thick to make up for my astigmatism, and it makes the world look a bit convex. Eventually, my brain got used to that, but when I switch to contacts I have a good day or two where everything looks concave (first time I thought my phone screen had finally been sat on one too many times) until my brain reverts back. IDK if i've ever noticed circles looking like eggs, but then again I rarely am looking at circles with my naked eyes and maybe my brain is fixing it for me anyway?
deck game-specific settings:
- Compatibility: proton experimental
- refresh rate 40hz
- allow tearing
- half-rate shading off
in-game settings:
- master quality: very low
- fullscreen
- 40fps limit
For some graphically-intensive builds or that one map in the swampy area that i cannot for the life of me maintain 40fps, i turn the resolution down in-game (but still fullscreen) and use the deck's FSR at max sharpness, though this does make text a little hard to read, so i try to avoid it. I can generally get away with tdp limit of 10-12W too.
At least Gilead cared about pollution and environmental sustainability...
i play exclusively on the steam deck and am happy with the performance
