  I went ahead and backed it. I am slowly amassing everything I need for a complete shell swap (and other bits and bobs to mod my deck - last things needed are a bigger SSD and a SSD enclosure to clone the drive/use the original as external storage). If this gets funded, I’ll just wait until I get it in May and just not have to worry about detaching the stock screen and reattaching it to the new shell. If this doesn’t get funded I’ll just order a replacement screen from ifixit.

  I use the Logitech Pop keyboard and their MX Ergo trackball mouse. Found a case for my keyboard, and it’s slightly wider than the deck.

  Thanks! I guess I missed that bit when I initially set it up. I’ll try this out. :)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨NonSteamLaunchers gets booted from Steam Deck plugin store Decky Loader⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Does anyone know of a similar alternative? Junk Store only covers Epic unless you donate. I know I could use Lutris and/or Heroic and manually add the non steam games that way. I do like the ability to see them in the non steam tab on my deck in gaming mode.

  Thank you for sharing this! I haven’t booted up my PS5 in months… Can this be used without their monthly subscription thing? I didn’t see that mentioned on the remote play website, so I figured I’d ask the stupid question.

  Cult of the Lamb

  Bought it right at the end of the summer sale. Been having a blast.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[Discussion] Double discussion this month, what games did you buy for your Deck during the Steam Sale, and what are you playing on Deck right now? - July 2024⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Bought several to share through Family Beta, but the two for me were Bravely Default II and Catlateral Damage. Played the first two Bravely games on the DS, and the other game I got just looks like fun.

  As for what I’m playing? Backlog 😅 When I’m in the mood for story rich I’m playing Death Stranding. When I’m in the mood for just something fun I’m playing Peglin.

  I have not

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Headphone / Microphone Combo⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m using a pair of Corsair HS55 via Bluetooth without any issues. Got them on sale cheap-ish and I’m happy. Only used the mic when I’ve had it connected to my phone and been told there’s no noticable difference between the headset mic and the phone mic.

  Forza Horizon 4 - I had to search to the acronym

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Do you still use your Steam Deck much?⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Almost daily. I have treatment resistant radial styloid tenosynovitis so when that flares up nothing is easy to play.

  Initially the games were those on the lighter side, but now I’ve moved on to more graphically intensive games (sometimes having to tweak settings, sometimes not).

  When I want a bigger screen I bust out the dock and set up the portable monitor I bought for it - and, depending on what I’m playing I’ll either get out the mouse and keyboard or the controller.

  I don’t have a set space for my setup so having the ability to pack up everything is a huge plus.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Do you still use your Steam Deck much?⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I have the 512GB LCD model and recently put in a 1.5TB SD card and am loving being able to install bigger games. So far I haven’t noticed any real lag vs it being installed on the internal SSD. That may be an option for you.

  When funds allow I will be upgrading my internal SSD to a 2TB, but, for now, the SD card works fine

  Mine? SuzyQ? It’s from the CCR song of the same name but with a different spelling.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨These shell swaps really do be taking 5 hours⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Same. It’s why I went with the Teardown skin by dbrand. Get that see through look but with an adhesive skin instead. I’ve been very pleased with it.
