I mean you said you got a Huaying
- Comment on Took the plunge after 2 years, and replaced the Delta fan with a Huaying one 1 month ago:
Why didn’t you get the OEM one?
- Comment on It Takes Two does not require EA app anymore and its Steam Deck Verified now 1 month ago:
Add it to the list of platforms I won’t buy from.
- Comment on Are you using GOG games on your Steam Deck? 1 month ago:
What does the client have to do with anything?
- Comment on Are you using GOG games on your Steam Deck? 1 month ago:
I’m conflicted bc GoG has no DRM but also no Linux support. But yeah I try to remember to check it before buying on Steam and I have several games I play on SD.
- Comment on Steam Deck game library now 29% larger than that of Nintendo Switch 2 months ago:
This is just talking about games approved through Valve’s verification process.
I was gonna say that number sounded VERY low.
- Comment on Valve has little to worry about as new Steam Deck rival arrives 2 months ago:
I think AyaNeo was going to ship a device with HoloISO and then just…changed their mind. They make 100 new devices/year but can’t even try a Linux version to see how it might go…
- Comment on [Game] Ghost of Tsushima runs well on Steam Deck, making its PSN nonsense all the more annoying - RockPaperShotgun 2 months ago:
Can you use single player without PSN?
- Comment on EA SPORTS WRC will be adding EA anticheat, game will not playable any more. On ProtonDB game is rated Platinum 2 months ago:
We don’t need native Linux ports. Valve already created Linux compatible DRM anti-cheat and I’d be surprised if they weren’t pressuring publishers to use it at all.
I really don’t know what more they can do, other than refusing to sell games that don’t work on Linux, which would obviously hurt them very badly, considering that makes up ~2% of their customers.
- Comment on NonSteamLaunchers Steam Deck plugin in testing, plus a way to Remote Play Together anything 2 months ago:
Because those launchers are bloated pieces of crap and HGL can access them with a better, lighter interface, and with more options.
- Comment on NonSteamLaunchers Steam Deck plugin in testing, plus a way to Remote Play Together anything 2 months ago:
All of those companies are cancers on the gaming industry and no one should be buying them, much less going out of their way to make them available on more platforms.
- Comment on NonSteamLaunchers Steam Deck plugin in testing, plus a way to Remote Play Together anything 2 months ago:
…did you have a question?
- Comment on NonSteamLaunchers Steam Deck plugin in testing, plus a way to Remote Play Together anything 2 months ago:
Yes
- Comment on NonSteamLaunchers Steam Deck plugin in testing, plus a way to Remote Play Together anything 2 months ago:
Oh thanks for that additional context. I don’t use anything but Steam and GoG but that’s good to know.
Really wish people would stop adding support for EA, Ubisoft, Rockstar, etc. but I appreciate the effort regardless.
- Comment on NonSteamLaunchers Steam Deck plugin in testing, plus a way to Remote Play Together anything 2 months ago:
Do not use this. Do not install EGS or GOG on your device.
Use Heroic Games Launcher.
- Comment on It's Time to Bring Back the Steam Machine 2 months ago:
It became what it is currently the Steam Deck OS
That’s still called SteamOS.
- Comment on It's Time to Bring Back the Steam Machine 2 months ago:
The whole point of SteamOS is the controller-first interface. If you’re not interested then it’s not for you.
- Comment on It's Time to Bring Back the Steam Machine 2 months ago:
Sure, Gamescope is the big one. But part of SteamOS is that all of that comes configured out of the box.
Nvidia is probably the problem.
- Comment on It's Time to Bring Back the Steam Machine 2 months ago:
No I want a steam deck and a dock that lets me also slot in a discrete gpu
That GPU would be stupidly expensive and also still hamstrung by the relatively weak AMD APU and associated thermals.
- Comment on It's Time to Bring Back the Steam Machine 2 months ago:
Personally, I just like to install Debian or Ubuntu as the OS, and then install the Steam launcher:
Then you don’t get Gamescope, which is kind of a big deal.
And less importantly the direct-launch into Big Picture Mode.
- Comment on It's Time to Bring Back the Steam Machine 2 months ago:
While an official release would be appreciated, I’d probably just continue using ChimeraOS/Bazzite/whatever
- Comment on It's Time to Bring Back the Steam Machine 2 months ago:
You could do that, but you could get significantly more performance per dollar by creating a new class of hardware that doesn’t have to be concerned with form factor, efficiency or battery, so it can be larger and more performant, and also does not need to include an OLED display or a controller or a battery…
- Comment on NVIDIA make it easier to get GeForce NOW on Steam Deck 2 months ago:
Works perfectly via HGL. Full screen and all. Same goes for Xbox Cloud.
- Comment on NVIDIA make it easier to get GeForce NOW on Steam Deck 2 months ago:
I just went to download it. All it is is a script that downloads Google Chrome and adds a shortcut to Steam.
I’ve already done this with Heroic Launcher…
- Comment on NVIDIA make it easier to get GeForce NOW on Steam Deck 2 months ago:
Nvidia supports Linux!

- Comment on Palworld Creator Loves That Others Are Trying To Clone The Game 3 months ago:
Ah yes, let’s make a clone of a clone.
I’m so tired of original games being cloned and emulated.
I just started up Shadow Warrior 3 and it’s just a clear rip-off of Doom and Ghostrunner.
- Comment on New AMD CPU leak looks like a perfect fit for Steam Deck 2 3 months ago:
I think if there are substantial increases in performance and efficiency then yes, they’ll have to, especially for the latter. That’s something home consoles don’t have to concern themselves with.
- Comment on New AMD CPU leak looks like a perfect fit for Steam Deck 2 3 months ago:
if the steam deck doesn’t do the same I fear their sales will plummet until a new model comes out.
What will happen is the Deck will consistently have smoother gaming performance as developers optimize their games for the hardware, just like they do with consoles.
No sense in bothering with that for a piece of hardware that gets a new generation every year.
Also Valve probably doesn’t care if consumers choose a different handheld. Their goal was to create/expand a market to sell games, and they’ve already done that. Their work is basically done at this point. Same idea behind Steam Machines that were 100% developed by 3rd parties.
- Comment on New AMD CPU leak looks like a perfect fit for Steam Deck 2 3 months ago:
which in my opinion is a clever move.
Well that’s an interesting take? We have these things called “power profiles” that are not new. It’s just hamstringing performance…
