Life in the Ruins - Wander
🕑 Added 2023-12-24 11:13:09 +0000 UTCWander: Life on the Steam Deck
Wander is a fork of Life in the Ruins, specifically designed with two goals:
- Run smoothly and consistently on a steam deck - it'll still work just fine on PC, but this is the list I built for myself to play when I got a deck
- Focus heavily on an exploration gameplay loop, instead of settlement building.
I'm not a big fan of settlement building in FO4. With Life in the Ruins, I built the list around Sim Settlements 2 as an alternative to the vanilla settlement building mechanics. However, due to how heavy the mod is late game when everything is built up, trying to run SS2 on a Steam Deck seems like a bad idea. So with Wander I decided to go the other direction. What if the player can no longer build their way out of survival mechanics? What if, much like the Steam Deck itself, the modlist is designed to keep the player moving?
