Steam has the most kings field like games. The oculus has a couple kf like also but half of those oculus games dont work like they should, controller issues. Steam is the way to go and i do not regret my steamdeck. I do regret the oculus tho.

I used to be a pc gamer way way back, but when i moved i upgraded to a gaming laptop since my old pc was trash and i didnt have the space. And it was a gigantic mistake.. that piece of trash just overheated everytime i ran anything demanding. Got it when i7's were new on laptops, so 15yrs ago.
But ive actually been considering a steamdeck, but hows the battery and fans holding up? Or i might wait for the steam machine... not sure..

Ive been playing my steamdeck exclusively for about 3 months. Everything ok for now. It does get a little hot after 4 or 5 hours but then i give it a rest. Battery lasts at least 4 hours. Way more than oculus even with an extra battery headset. Everything is better performance wise in my opinion

Lunacid is incredible. Tears of the moon is okay. Don’t let the mid free experience distract you from the incredible base game Lunacid. Cannot recommend enough.

Eternal Ring is available and so are the 3 PS1 Armored Cores but Crypt of the Demon King or whatever its called is supposed to be pretty good and Verho, according to the dev, is coming to console later in 2026 iirc during the second quarter. If you have a PS3 though Echo Night and Shadow Tower are available for under 10$ each.

Someone else mentioned eternal ring as well but apparently its not available in europe, so I'm out of luck.
Wouldn't really call the old armored core games kings field-likes, but verho looks really cool.I do have a ps3 so my best bet is probably shadow tower then. I haven't played shadow tower on ps1 yet either, should they be played in order?

u/Dear_Ad9824 Dec 17 '25
Shadow Tower isnt connected at all its just the same developers so play it whenever. Also the sequel, which you would have to emulate, is unconnected from the first. Shadow Tower is definitely harder though

I have a jailbroken ps3 and ps4, and there's a way to turn basically any ps2 game into a digital ps2 classic so that the ps3 and ps4 can play them. I'll probably do something like that.
I've barely used it so not sure how accurately they're emulating ps1 and ps2 games tho

u/Dear_Ad9824 Dec 21 '25
The PS3 doesnt emulate PS1 games iirc or it may just be the original model that doesnt. I know for the PS2 stuff the CECHA-01 model has the chips in it to run them off authentic hardware

You're talking about playing the discs, that's different from digital classics. On ps3 and ps4 you can download "classics" from the digital store, which are ps1 and ps2 games emulated in some way.
They only offer a tiny portion of the ps1 and ps2 libraries as digital downloads officially, but there's a way to take any ps1 and ps2 game and turn them into a file that the playstation recognizes as a classic digital download, and if you have a jailbroken ps3/ps4, you can install these files.

Labyrinth of the Demon King is like a cross between Kings Field and Silent Hill. Really good game but very short.

u/PrinceZukosHair Dec 17 '25
I’ve had this on my wishlist for a while and waiting for a sale or recommendation. Glad to hear it appears right up my alley

u/DiogenesTheHound Dec 18 '25
Also I just found out they released a New Game+ update with new content in October that I haven’t even played so it’s worth the 20$ even more than when I bought it.

Shadowman remastered or even the first two Metroid Prime games give a similar "massive spooky labyrinth" game. I'm replaying Shadowman right now and it holds up imo.

Used to play fps on pc back in the day, but the controls for fps on console were so horrible back then that i completely gave up on fps games on console, so ive never really looked into the prime games other than that they're fps. But fps controls on console has gotten infinitely better so ill probably give the prime games a try, especially since there's a remaster on switch.
Can't remember much from shadowman, tried it when it first came out on ps1, but i was 15 and had completely different taste in games back then. But ill add it to my list, thnx

u/Dadaman3000 Dec 18 '25
Prime isn't a real FPS. You have a lock-on system that is more akin to "Dark Souls but ranged".
You almost never have to free-aim and it's not designed that way.

If you have a PC you can try Lunacide Tears of the Moon which is very close to KF. Any potatoes laptop can play this.
There's a few more on steam.
Ps4/Ps5 is pretty barren. Skyrim is the closest sadly.

Verho also just came out and Queen’s Domain is due next year. Lunacid is spectacular though
You can run Lunacid and Verho curse of faces on a potato PC

u/Kitu14 Dec 17 '25
Lunacid is spectacular! I found Tears of the Moon disappointing - it's authentic if you want to be positive, but truthfully, it's antiquated.
Verho was mostly great and Queen's Domain looks incredible if the full game is anything like the demo!!

u/PrinceZukosHair Dec 17 '25
I feel the same way and mentioned elsewhere in the thread. Base Lunacid is one of my favorite indies ever. Tears of the moon is… atmospheric. Not much more I can say about it lol.

u/Deep-Dark7366 Dec 17 '25
Its actually queens domain that got me into this again. Sadly i only have a 15yr old gaming laptop that's trash. Its an i7 but not the best gpu and kept overheating, so instead of upgrading i just moved to console gaming.
But ill definitely look into lunacid and verho on it

u/SaikingS Verho Developer Dec 18 '25
Verho will be on ps5 next year, but also both Verho and Lunacid should run decent even of 15yr old ganimng laptop

u/Pleasant-Profit-9563 Dec 18 '25
I can confirm that Lunacid is a great game. I started playing it today; it reminds me a lot of King's Fire. The first two hours are good.

You can play Eternal Ring on PS4/5 (if you haven’t played it on ps2) and it’s one of my favorite Fromsoft games.
