- Comment on Halo Campaign Evolved Linux compatibility confirmed? 12 hours ago:
Especially with this, I would fully expect the game to be playable on Deck.
That said, I’ve seen devs preview their game on Steam Deck before, and then have anticheat that won’t actually allow it to run on SteamOS

I respect that.
- Comment on Steam Deck Docking Station with dbrand Killswitch 1 day ago:
Sounds like a bad adapter, if you reach out to killswitch they might send you a new one.
You can also get pretty cheap displayport to hdmi cables online.
- Comment on Any desktop-mode tips for a new Steam Deck owner? 2 days ago:
For 2, there are ways to install packages without messing with the read only file system. Easiest ways are using nix packages or using distrobox to install non-flatpak software.
So for the linked aur PWA package you provided, you could create an arch linux distrobox, enter it, install yay (or another aur helper), install firefox and your pwa package, and then use the
distrobox-export --app <package>command to make the installed software directly runnable from the desktop. - Comment on [Discussion] What are you playing on your Deck? - June 2026 4 days ago:
Great game, although these days I mostly play it on my phone.

Thanks! I’ll give it a shot one of these days.

Do you mind sharing your TotK setup? I never finished it because my kids always want the switch, and I find the ergonomics really uncomfortable to play for long

How is Mina? I’ve heard some mixed takes on it, but it being from the Shovel Knight devs makes me want to jump on it.

I really enjoyed Outer Wilds, and Obra Dinn came up in some recommendations I read based on that. While it’s true that the games share a limitation that you can only play them “properly” one time, they aren’t yet hitting the same itch for me.
Also grabbed Chants of Sennaar awhile back, which I think may be similar to Obra Dinn.

I’ve actually run into several older games that have major issues on Windows but run great on Deck. Many of these require fan patches to fix their windows issues (stuff like increasing how much ram the game can use, etc).
A recent example was I gave a friend a copy of FEAR, just to discover it ran way worse on his high end PC than it does on my Steam Deck.

Mostly replaying older games this month. One new pickup is “Return of the Obra Dinn”, which looks pretty interesting. I think it will be (eventually) a fun puzzle to put together, but I’m not sold on the on-boarding process of being pushed from one memory to another. Kinda feels like the game is dictating the pace early on, and I feel like that could have been handled better. But I’ve heard enough good things about it that I expect I’ll enjoy it a lot by the end.

- Comment on [Discussion] How well does playing your Steam Deck docked work for you? 1 week ago:
Thankfully it sounds like no one else is having this issue. It’s either a beta only problem, or maybe something to do with my cheap offbrand dock.
- Comment on [Discussion] How well does playing your Steam Deck docked work for you? 1 week ago:
Sometimes the connection to the TV drops and it goes black for a few seconds
I had this issue for a long time, but it turned out it was just a bad HDMI cable. Swapped cables and it never happened again. Might be worth a try.
- Comment on Steam Deck sells out in North America within 24 hours of price hike 1 week ago:
Probably was marked as sold out for awhile, I’ve seen at least 4 different websites report on it being sold out earlier today. I’m assuming some of those sites actually verified it showed as sold out online.
- Comment on Steam Deck sells out in North America within 24 hours of price hike 1 week ago:
I just used the current article title.
It is noteworthy that it sold out, despite the price hike. Apparently it’s still desirable at that price, although without actual sales numbers it’s hard to say for sure.

- Comment on Steam Deck back in stock, with higher pricing 1 week ago:
Ouch, that’s rough.
I mean, this is technically better than it just not being available. But those prices are hard to swallow, makes me really glad to already have mine. Really hope nothing happens to it.

I appreciate the ascii drawing, thanks for including it!
- Comment on [Discussion] How well does playing your Steam Deck docked work for you? 1 week ago:
Personally I’ve been encountering more issues with docking than I used to have. Seems like it will work fine in either docked or handheld mode by themselves, but swapping between the two will cause a game to crash or steamOS to restart within the next 5-10 minutes.
I am on beta, so it could just be a SteamOS bug that’s not in the normal builds.

- Comment on [Controller] SISR on Linux - how can I prevent a Wine app from picking up inputs from both the real and virtual controllers? 2 weeks ago:
There are some non-Steam games that I can’t run through Steam because of its sandboxing (bubblewrap and pressure-vessel and such).
Do you mind giving some examples of what kind of issues you’re having here?
I’ve had really good luck with running external games through steam, so I’m just curious what kind of issues you’re having.

I probably enjoyed 2 & 3 the most of the series, but I’ve been meaning go back and play the Steam version of the first one. The english translation wasn’t great when I played it, and I had mixed feelings about the day time limit.
- Comment on Valve just published two guides on how to get the most of the Trackpads on[ your Steam Controller or Deck 2 weeks ago:
Thankfully haven’t encountered that myself, sounds terrible.
I am on the beta update channel, so might be worth switching to beta for awhile to see if it fixes it for you.

Oh I hadn’t even noticed that. Are you talking about where you can “fling” the virtual ball and have momentum carry the cursor across the screen?
Also is your username based on the Witchspring character? Or something else?
- Comment on Valve just published two guides on how to get the most of the Trackpads on[ your Steam Controller or Deck 2 weeks ago:
Yeah, it’s sometimes hard to use other people’s config layouts for that reason. Even with being able to label the inputs on the “input overview” screen, it can be unclear how to use the more complex profiles. And many input profiles might require specific game settings to work properly (like small deadzone settings for gyro joystick aiming, etc).
A lot of times even if a game has a lot of community profiles available, I’ll end up making my own. That way there’s no question on how to use it, and I can tweak it as I go if I run into any issues.

Virtual Menus are great for any PC first games imo. Being able to setup direct weapon shortcuts (instead of cycling through) or having direct shortcuts to map/journal/inventory/etc is really nice. Also things like quicksave/quick load menus.
