- Comment on How do you download your GOG games? 1 day ago:
Yeah but I don’t need so much speed as long as it’s faster than the 0.5 MB/s I’m getting for now.
- Comment on How do you download your GOG games? 1 day ago:
That’s what I’ve done for now, but I’d prefer avoiding the days of emule downloads where you needed 2 days to get an illegal copy of a 30 MB mzsic album😅
- Comment on How do you download your GOG games? 1 day ago:
Well I’ve contacted GOG’s support and we’ll see what they say. If it’s still like this in a week or two, I’ll just never order games again on GOG despite wanting to support them and really own my games.
- Comment on How do you download your GOG games? 2 days ago:
Around 0.5 mb/s through heroic and 250 kb/s thrrough Firefox from the GOG website.
But my connection is way faster with everything else…
- Comment on How do you download your GOG games? 2 days ago:
Well downloading on my desktop PC gives me the same slow speeds so it doesn’t help.
Especially because weirdly, turning off the computer meant starting at 0% again.
- Comment on How do you download your GOG games? 2 days ago:
Well I have only rebooted the Deck, but it also happens on my Linux pc’s.
And downloading Playstation games, Steam games, watching Peertube, watching Nba league pass, watching youtube or listening to music on Tidal works fine.
Directly from GOG or through Heroic, I got these really slow download speeds, so ot’s an isolated case.

To be honest, while he would be annoying if I watched 10 of his videos in a row, I don’t understand why hés so hated on Lemmy.
- Comment on RetroDECK Blog - Retro Gaming Flatpak - November 2025: Finally a fatpak 1 week ago:
I’m not an advanced user, bit the fact that retrodeck was a Flatpak I could easily install on my Steam Deck without installing Deckyloader was a big plus.
- Comment on External storage on Steam OS is a problem 1 week ago:
You saved me by talking about the drive not auto mounting after updates.
It turns out my problem this time was different than the last time as it was just the disk not auto mounting.
In the end, restarting my Steam Deck was enough. What an easy to solve and stupid problem!
- Comment on External storage on Steam OS is a problem 1 week ago:
Yeah you’re right about it being portable first.
I sold our Switch to justify getting it on top of my Playstation and my PC’s, so I’m not really using it thé right way as it spends a good amount of time hooked to a big screen.
Yeah let’s hope the Steam Machine is gonna bring more stability when it comes to external hard drives.
- Comment on External storage on Steam OS is a problem 1 week ago:
I know and that’s what’s frustrating.
I’d just want to be able to redirect the Deck towards it or copy it on another hard drive to see if the problem is hardware related.
- Comment on External storage on Steam OS is a problem 1 week ago:
Well I wrote the message in anger after discovering that my games had disappeared again, so I haven’t spent much time investigating😅
Last time, in « storage » in Steam OS the hard drive would still appear, the space occupied by the games would still appear, but the games were nowhere to be found.
In desktop mode, I’d easily find them, but there was no way to show Steam OS the path to these games again.
I’ve tried many workarounds found on the web, but none worked.
I ended up reinstalling my whole library. But now it’s the same thing with Retrodeck on top (although retrodeck might be easier to just move as you can change the path to games)

- Comment on [Meta] This community has been renamed to Steam Hardware to include the newly annouced Steam Machine and Steam Frame 2 weeks ago:
Yeah but it’s a problem for a guy looking for perfection like me😅
- Comment on [Meta] This community has been renamed to Steam Hardware to include the newly annouced Steam Machine and Steam Frame 2 weeks ago:
It’s a shame that the c/steamdeck part can’t be renamed, but it’s also normal to encounter limitations from time to time…
Maybe it’s it’s the first community in need of such a change and it’ll be implemented at one point…
- Comment on [Discussion] What are you playing on your Deck? - November 2025 4 weeks ago:
Mass Effect 2 for the second time years after playing it on Playstation 3
- Comment on How do you manage your Steam Deck as a family device? 5 weeks ago:
Family sharing is a great idea, but for now it only works with one of the two games I bought for my kids.
Street Fighter V and Sonic All Star Racing work flawlessly on my profile, but Sonic doesn’t work on my kid’s profiles, which is weird as it’s supposed to support family sharing.
- Comment on How do you manage your Steam Deck as a family device? 5 weeks ago:
Well for now all the kids games were bought on Steam so it’s easy to just use the Steam family.
I guess I’ll stick to Steam games for them and try to get verified ones so that there is almost nothing to set up.
On GOG I only have adult games or old kid games that my kids would probably find too old because it ain’t Fortnite anyway, but I wish it was easy to share things in a family through GOG.
And I know the games are DRM free so I can just copy them, but I wouldn’t want to have multiple installs on my Deck which already doesn’t have enough storage…
- Comment on How do you manage your Steam Deck as a family device? 5 weeks ago:
I don’t agree as that’s why you can switch profiles.
Also the Deck is cheap, but what’s the point of having 3 devices when only one person is really using it and the kids would just it once in a while.
We have one kitchen so we can have one Deck😅

- Comment on I have joined the ranked of the steam powered. 1 month ago:
Someone call the police as 140$ for such a great device is a steal.
I paid 300$ for mine and I’m almost not using my Playstation 5 anymore, except for really demaning games and Sim Racing.
It also allowed me to sell my Switch and its games for 239$, so you could say I paid 61$ for my LCD Deck with 256gb😅
- Comment on [Discussion] What are you playing on your Deck? - October 2025 2 months ago:
XCOM 2 is a great game to play on the Deck. The touchpad are perfect for such games and I eouldn’t picture myself playing it with a mouse/keyboard or Playstation 5 controller.
- Comment on Steam Deck LCD 256GB on sale for 20% off ($400 -> $320) 2 months ago:
I have an LCD Steam Deck which I got used for around 300$ since I already have a Ps5 and the Deck was my first time trying pc gaming.
Because of how everyone was praising the OLED, I thought the screen would be bad, but it is awesome to my eyes.
The battery management is the annoying part of an handheld, but you also have it, maybe less, with the OLED.
- Comment on Steam Deck plugin adds AMD FSR4 support to improve visuals 2 months ago:
Well thanks for all these infos.
I guess I’d need to improve my knowledge for such things.
- Comment on Steam Deck plugin adds AMD FSR4 support to improve visuals 2 months ago:
Well I’ve just learned that you already had FSR 1-2 in Steam OS without adding any plugin. So I guess what I was talking about is already there but I’m just not using it😅
- Comment on Steam Deck plugin adds AMD FSR4 support to improve visuals 2 months ago:
I’m tempted by all these frane gen mods, but I don’t want to install decky loader for now as Steam Os already feels a bit too beta for me compared to want I’m used to on Gnome or Playstation.
- Comment on [Discussion] What games are you playing on your deck? - September 2025 2 months ago:
Not at all. I used to be a Playstation gamer so I guess I’m not used to mods😅
My only modification is to lock it at 30fps and 5 TDP for better battery life.
- Comment on [Discussion] What games are you playing on your deck? - September 2025 2 months ago:
Mass Effect 1 as the Deck is perfect for enjoying these moderatly old games 👍
- Comment on New rumor suggests Valve's Steam Deck 2 is much further away than we thought 2 months ago:
I guess it’s consumerism and people always wanting more.
I’d be happy if the Steam Deck 2 wasn’t released until 2028 as I’ve just got my used LCD in 2025.
