  That’s because performance is a criteria for getting verified:

  default configuration: the game must ship with a default configuration on Deck that results in a playable framerate.

  There is no “target framerate” though, so what’s considered “playable” differs from tester to tester.

  Those reviews really overblow the importance of that mechanic. It’s just little side things that happen while you play “the real game”.

  It will probably be removed or reduced for the full release considering it doesn’t add much value to the gameplay either.

  OBS also has a replay buffer feature on both Linux and Windows. Obviously slightly more of a nuance to setup but once it’s setup, it’s just a single button to start/save.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Valve has little to worry about as new Steam Deck rival arrives⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Windows is the main reason I never got one of those PC handhelds even though they have been around for a very long time.

  Never really felt like a handheld, more like an unwieldly laptop.

  As another mouse lover, the DualSense controller also has gyro aiming and I can only recommend it.

  I’m playing Horizon Forbidden West with it right now and it allows me to be almost as precise as with a mouse. The adaptive triggers and the detailed haptics are also pretty cool. Also a really good controller for Switch emulation.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Outside of gaming, how do you guys use your Steam Deck?⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I plan to get a second dock for it, and use it in place of a stream deck for when I stream.

  Be careful if you have an OLED Steam Deck. Static images will burn in pretty quickly if the software you use does not have burn in protection built in.

  I’m going to put Capcom on the same list EA and Ubisoft already are on. If the pirate has the better experience than the customer I see no reason to buy their games.

  GDQuest always does nice videos for every major release: youtu.be/wHXJPaj6988

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Steam Deck OLED Plays Better Than Steam Deck LCD: Big Input Lag Reductions⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  The kind of person that wants to play Elden Ring on the go but can’t because the input lag is too damn high.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Steam Deck OLED Plays Better Than Steam Deck LCD: Big Input Lag Reductions⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Do you not notice any input lag on your Deck when playing at 30fps? Feels absolutely horrible to me, so I’m hopeful this will fix it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[News] Updates to the linux kernel 6.6 suggest a hardware refresh/variant of the Steam Deck is in development⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I sure hope so.

  SteamVR development also picked up pace the last few months and VR support was added to gamescope a while back. So something must be coming, and it’s Linux based.
