  Sometimes I forget the Steam Deck has a touch screen. I definitely wouldn’t want to support the Deck one handed for more than a few minutes.

  Maybe I don’t play long enough sessions for this to be a concern, but I just…hold the Steam Deck. Elbows on the couch is a pretty solid mount lol.

  This is the second plug-in I’ve read about in the last two weeks that causes major system crashes on the Steam Deck. Why are these little add on tools breaking the whole OS? That’s nuts.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What have you been playing lately?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Hype: The Time Quest, a 90s PC game by Playmobil that was a formative part of my childhood. Surprisingly dark story for baby’s first 3D action adventure game. Took quite a bit of work to get it running on Steam Deck, but I’m about 3/4 through it. Starting to lose my patience with the awful fucking tank controls, though. Tried to modernize them a little with Steam Input, but the platforming is killing me.

  I’m planning on checking out the Wario Land series myself soon. Recently got a cheap retro handheld and that’s on my list for sure.

  That’s the feature I’m hoping for. Maybe I’m misunderstanding how the constant record feature works, but I really only want to keep maybe the last 5-10 minutes in temp storage, but it’s holding way longer than that for me.

• ⁨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 ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Psychonauts 2. Was a huge fan of the original on PS2 and I can’t believe it’s taken me years to try the sequel. The animation, level design, and writing are all at the level of quality and creativity that I wanted to see videogames progress to some day when I was a kid. This is a playable DreamWorks film.

  Ooh, I want an 8bitdo Steam controller.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨It's Time to Bring Back the Steam Machine⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Steam is already the biggest fish by far in the digital games market for PC. Only reason for them to do this is if they’re worried about losing that dominance. Basically, is Epic keeping them up at night enough to warrant a major push into a new hardware loss leader?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Considering every Fallout game from the last two decades made top 20, I’d say yeah it’s probably the show lol.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Japanese chip flavors⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Visited Japan recently and was surprised at the lack of fucked up chip flavors. Sure, they were somewhat different, but still clearly chip-appropriate food flavors. My friend there tells me stuff like this tends to be sold at very limited times and also varies by region. So weird flavors are more like rare special editions than the norm.
