I'm playing the game on regular steam deck, even at full watt it's not stable on 30 fps, the stutter is out of places especially in the town and during cutscene, from what i saw, the cpu isn't doing anything at 11-15%, while gpu always at 99% all the time! Currently this game is not optimized for steam deck, hopefully it will be patched very soon.

To be honest, i bought this game because i support some of my good friends who are developers of this game. But after i finished my first playthrough, i realized that, maybe that's why i became good friends with them. The beauty of small details, visuals, music, narrative and surprises they put into this game are sooo like them! Although the journey is somewhat short and simple, i genuinely feel it will be long last in the memory of players, similar to our friendship!

I'm looking forward to continue the journey and unlock the true ending, and also other games from this developers in the years ahead! All the best of luck for all members of the team!

Sincerely, from your good friend

Still better than FIFA Manager, 10/10

Tower Defence + First Person Shooting + Beautiful Graphics and World

Its like Tomb Raider directed by Christoper Nolan, really recommended this!

The sequel of the masterpiece NFS Shift done right but not perfect

Overal (8/10)
First of all, this game is racing simulator (you don't say!) so the real time action is needed like handling, brake and throttle to enjoy driving experience as real as possible, Shift 2 is fail to realize that aspect, lag input, a little unaccurate handling like its successor NFS Shift. For what i experience, NFS Shift handling is more good than this one from this aspect. But it doesn't mean it's not fun at all! Really good environment and cars detail, good racing experience and AI, amazing soundtrack make NFS Shift 2 enjoyable.

Graphics (8/10)
A bit annoying particles and dust on the screen, like no realistic at all, particles is not real time, the cars is like hovering in the dark place with no light source. If you look closely the reflection on the car is not reflected real time on some objects, on certain tracks and conditions. But still this game has a really good environment and cars detail. The graphics overal is top notch!

Gameplay (7/10)
Like others and its successor, what do you expect from racing simulator games? my personal opinion, Shift 2 Unleashed deliver a good racing experience and AI, not too easy to beat, although theres bad handling and lag input, it is still fun and enjoyable.

Music (9/10)
Hell yeah!!! one of the best soundtrack i ever heard!!! No one would complaint about this.
