Steam Deck is an unsupported platform that we are not designing, testing or building the game for at this time. Once 1.0 releases we will decide which additional platforms we want to expand the game into.

Due to our Linux and controller support it does work fairly well.

This visual bug is brand new as of Wednesday and will be fixed.

Edit: I know this is too little too late because one of the replies to this got decimated over night but it's fine to have criticisms of the game everyone, please don't downvote people for raising their concerns. We need people to feel comfortable with saying the stuff they don't like, even if it's an unpopular opinion.

Ahh, sorry for the confusion. The Linux version is safe

No. We have no plans to remove the Linux version.

I'm not sure how being unsure of what platforms we are going to add post launch affects what we already have.

In steam verify game file integrity.

We will not have Steam Deck Verified for 1.0. We do not know which platforms we will expand to post 1.0 yet. Steam Deck is a likely target due to the low barrier to entry but we haven't actually decided if we will even try to do it yet.

Steam Deck verified is coming, confirmed, but most likely not in time for 1.0. (You can find it here just search)

Controller support has started to get done bit by bit since a few patches, and will be completed with 1.0 possibly but not necessarily, dont recall any direct source.

We have never committed to Steam Deck. It's very likely but we haven't even decided if we want to try yet.

We are unable to consider this as a potential 1.0 launch feature due to the required scope.

UI customization has never made it past the player request stage.

Minipets can't be controlled and have no functional purpose.

The A command controls minions that you can summon in game with abilities. For example, skeletons, wolves and Manifested Armor to name a few.

Super lame. What a waste of points.

Having a reliable way to apply frailty to all nearby enemies on a triggerable skill is very useful. If you have another way to apply it reliably then it's not useful for your build. I frequently take at least 1 point in there if I'm using it as an auto cast at the end of werebear charge.

Comment

When warcry hits an enemy, they get frailty for 2s per point.

That's it.

As much as I hate to admit it, I do think that if you were to of executed these characters as "Heroes" or "Legends" that are named as if they were closer to something like borderlands, Instead of making them "Player Classes" and such, it would actually make it more digestible. At least in my experience with gaming. I can't explain exactly why my brain decides to work like that, but for sure it at least helps me dissociate myself from the character I'm playing. I don't think this would be preferable, but if you were unable for whatever reason to unlock gender, it wouldn't be the worst path to take either.

I think the best example for me personally is Overwatch OR fighting games. I think there's something about making them proper named characters that would help re-contextualize it for my brain. It feels more like i'm working with this character rather than becoming this character, which it might just be a me thing but I often naturally fall into trying to become my charact...

I don't think we are even considering going down the "just give them names" route. The plan is still to do a proper character customization system. I'm just trying to understand the issues better. It doesn't directly affect me in the slightest so I have to work to understand it a bit more so we can deliver a better experience for people who want these features.

I will check out Lunacid and I really appreciate your insight, thanks.

Oh, another genius here who clearly can't see past his nostalgia goggles. Newsflash: LastEpoch is nothing like Chrono Trigger. Just because it has time travel elements doesn't automatically make it a Chrono Trigger clone. Maybe try actually playing the game before making baseless comparisons. But hey, who needs originality when you can just jump on the bandwagon of mindlessly bashing everything that remotely resembles a classic, right? Keep living in the past, buddy.

Just so you know, I'm one of the founders of Eleventh Hour Games and am a Senior Developer for Last Epoch. I have played it a few times. I can say with 100% certainty that Last Epoch is influenced by Chrono Trigger. Last Epoch is influenced by dozens of games. I didn't mean to imply that it was a CT clone.

sorry for necroposting, I appreciate that last comment. I'm glad you understand why people want it. I personally just have gender dysphoria and I feel like the only two classes I can play is Rogue and Acolyte, which luckily I happen to really like necromancers/liches/warlocks

also I don't even need light customization, i'd honestly be happy with like, just a superficial pronoun selection would help my brain a lot. (you'd even get bonus free press/exposure from that one bald angry guy getting angry about it like he did with starfield)

Really appreciate all you and the team do, hope you have a successful launch !

I'm sorry you're struggling with being comfortable playing as the Primalist, Sentinel and Mage. We haven't made a ton of headway on character customization yet. We do plan to add a proper character customization system where you can choose things like body shape. Because we only have one script, we usually try to only use the term "Traveler" when talking about the player character. Part of this is to just avoid gendered pronouns all together so we don't need to know what class you're playing as.

This is a very much ongoing issue and there are dozens of topics I've replied to on various platforms since this post so I appreciate your perspective and don't worry about the necropost.

One of the things I realized relatively recently was that I think that a contributor to these gender issues in Last Epoch specifically is being able to name your character. I'm really interested in getting more people's opinions on the topic but if any of this makes you uncomfortable or you...

Voted. You made me choose between your game and sea of stars which is another great game (but you won my choice).

Another game heavily influenced by Chrono Trigger.

Just for clarity, I don't think we've ever commented on the LP chance numbers from LETools. There was an infographic post a while back that made a statistics math mistake which made almost every number off. That was the post we commented on to be wrong.
