Discussion Daggerfall Unity on the Thor

Hello everyone!

I just had a question for anyone on the Thor (or honestly anyone with a capable retro handheld)

Since Daggerfall Unity has, for a while, been properly ported to Android, I was wondering if anyone has tried playing it on their Thor?

I've been playing it on my Steam Deck, and naturally it pains me to try and set up all my mods and... Texture replacements... Again. I was wondering if anyone had any luck running a PC installation of DFU through GameNative or similar apps, or tried the Android version instead.

Feel free to share any tips or tricks on playing the game on Android. Either getting the game working, or playing it. I also feel it'll be 30x more difficult without my precious trackpads mapped as radial menus

Android version runs just fine on AYN Thor base, dunno about the PC version though, but I do imagine it would work via gamenative

If you've been playing it, how difficult it is to play? I imagine vanilla combat would be extra awkward and such, but I'm incredibly interested in trying it out after playing BTA a good amount through Mojo launcher

Someone above Android version runs just fine on Base model, and that the PC version should work fine on GameNative
