I'm playing it on my Steam Deck and I'm really liking how I've got the controls set up. I grabbed a community template and made some additions of my own. I added a virtual menu for the left trackpad and changed the right joystick to handle scrolling long text and menus.

The story is good and I'm hanging in there on Easy. I figured I'd end up going down to the Story difficulty.

The thing is, it's not really villain-as-protagonist. It's more like "goon-as-protagonist". You are just a cog in the real villain's machine. That's why the choices are so interesting. Because they are often trolley-problems constrained by the world Kyros has created. So you don't get choices like "will you kill this baby or not" because then it's easy to not be the bad guy. You get choices like "Kyros demands someone from this town is getting killed. You can choose this baby or this old person. You can also choose not to make a choice, but that would be shirking your job as a judge and omniscient daddy Tunon wouldn't like it"
