  Get some Darn Tough socks! I’ve been using them for years and outside of the initial purchase I’ve been rocking free socks!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Has the Deck turned *off* any other Steam users?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I have set up a steam family and created accounts for my kids. Other than only having one copy of some games or games not supporting family sharing it’s been great. I have control over the games they can see in their libraries and we can all play different or the same game with enough licenses at the same time. We often play valheim together.

  My kids (7 and 6) enjoy valheim, Lego Star wars, deaths door, portal 2 and spiritfarer

  Northgard primarily! It’s been wearing my trackpad smooth.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Games you want on the deck⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I would just like to see more games be a bit friendlier with settings. Give me some real potato settings or focus a bit more on optimization so I can play stuff without having to futz with settings so much.

  I keep getting lost! But then I find secrets I walked by and vacuums I can pet so it’s worth it. But the colours can be really difficult. I find I use the flashlight quite a bit while exploring. I’ve been playing half on the OLED steam deck and the other half on my PC(standard LED) and the colours seem better on the steam deck.

  Improved support for input devices with 8+ axes.

  This must be a custom controller for lumberjack simulator.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I've never had a Steam account or done PC gaming. I have a OLED SteamDeck coming. what do I need to know?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  The finals only works on windows, so don’t expect to play that on the pre-installed OS. But keep an eye on steam sales to pick up tons of games on the cheap. Its also a really comfortable system to play some games you might not play on a PC or console. Indie games and the like.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨PSA: You can filter for games that support HDR in the Store and your library⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  4 games in my whole library apparently lol. I’m sure more games will add the tag soon!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨soon...⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  It broke before I could confirm payment details. It breaks on the shipping details window for me!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Good Times⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t even get the chance to confirm my shipping details!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What reviews didn't say about the Steam Deck OLED⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I have one currently but am absolutely getting another! The kids or wife can use the old one which still works perfectly fine!
