everyone should play Deadly Premonition 1, but I can't speak to how well it plays on the switch since at least the 360 and PC versions all had their own problems.

play the 360 version. it's back compatible with the bone and series consoles too
if xbox is not an option, the various ports are all slightly worse than the 360 original: the director's cut extra content is pointless, game looks worse, performance is worse, crashes are more frequent. still worth checking out imo, but the switch one is the worst port of all i think
definitely don't bother with 2 unless you've played 1. i loved 1 but couldn't stomach 2, ymmv

yeah 2 was not well received even by huge fans of 1 so i stayed away. sounded like it was just worse all around - writing not as charming or engaging, performance downgraded from 'janky low budget game' to 'so broken it's barely playable'

This is the perfect steam deck to play beside my wife while she watches pretty little liars. I tried it when it came out and was one to jump out as soon as I had to jump in a car and navigate the games handling. Now, I’m having a ball. Very keen to try 2 as well, apparently the pc version fixes most/all of the performance woes of the switch

Incredibly on brand for this game: The steam achievement for completing episode 1 spoils who the killer is in its description. Couldn’t help but laugh when I saw it come up at the bottom of my screen. Oh well, let’s see how it all unfolds!
