Comment on Lemmy.one will be shutting down
Die4Ever@retrolemmy.com 14 hours agowe have a game mode called “Zero Rando” (no randomization) that’s basically vanilla gameplay
the Randomizer had so many compatibility fixes, QoL improvements, and bug fixes over the original game, this ended up being really useful for new first time players
since you’ve played before we also have “Zero Rando Plus” which is the same thing, but also includes the balance changes we’ve made for Randomizer
and we also have “Rando Lite” and “Rando Medium” to get started with the randomization stuff before going up to Normal Randomizer or Full Randomizer

How does this compare to other community patches in your opinion?

our “Zero Rando” makes way less changes to the gameplay than GMDX or Revision, which are often recommended to first time players but they’re actually totally different games from the original

How about Deus Ex: Transcended?
I think that was the patch I ended up using my first playthrough (I’m away from my computer at the moment or else I’d check), but I might want to use something else my second time.

Transcended seems good. I haven’t played it, but it sounds like it still has changes from Revision left over in it. Like cameras seeing bodies, pawns reacting to unconscious bodies, and dogs having the jump attack. But idk if those can be turned off. If they can be turned off then it’s pretty similar to our “Zero Rando”.
But we have more QoL features available that you can enable which aren’t included by default in “Zero Rando”. A big one being Password Autofill which isn’t enabled by default in “Zero Rando” but it’s huge for Steam Deck players.
