As in the title - its on sale on all consoles at the moment for a very good price and I was wondering what console should I get it on. I like the idea of playing it on the go and I thought as it looks like it should run no difference what console im playing it. But I heard some mixed reviews regarding the performance on Switch.

Well, you kinda answered your own question. Wanna play on the go, go for the switch version. Don't really need the game on the go, go for the PS5 version.

Definitely watch some comparison videos of the performance and make a decision based on that. If you're likely to play the game on the go, then go for the Switch version. I myself realised, however, that I wouldn't be playing the game on the go at all since my SO was interested too, so I got the game for PS5 for the better performance.
I think the performance isn't stellar on Switch, but you can make it work since nothing too crazy is going on in the game that would require perfect framerate and resolution - most of the game is reading anyway.
Enjoy your time, whichever version you choose!

I played it on the switch and loved it. Didn't really notice any major performance issues with it.

Any console, game is amazing. Bring a dictionary.

Can't answer your question directly, but it is pretty lightweight and loads of fun!

I'm going to be the negative nancy on this one, because I had the same deal, super cheap price and I wanted something to play on my Steam Deck.
It LOOKS great. It PLAYS like shit. You navigate the world as a character who maybe got hit in the head too hard a few too many times. None of the dialog choices are good, they are all just varying degrees of "Stupid" to "Who hurt you?"
Some people get off on it, I couldn't stand playing a character that fucking stupid. I asked around going "So... did I just roll the stats wrong? It's not too late for me to re-start..."
No, it turns out, regardless of your stats, it really is just that badly written.

I don't think the OP was really looking for a review of the game, and given the accolades it received for writing, calling the game "badly written" likely makes your review an outlier.

A lot of people apparently enjoy playing a brain damaged main character. I did not.

I've heard this as a sticking point for some people, and I think it's fair. Some don't enjoy putting themselves in the shoes of a complete fuckup main character who's already made a ton of terrible decisions before the game's even started and will continue to do so despite your best efforts.
But, worth noting this is part of the appeal for a lot of other folks, and the game is going somewhere really special with it. It's not bad writing, it's a necessary component of the story being told.
