Bazzite is also immutable
- Comment on My SO got a steamdeck today, and it's a lot better than I imagined it to be 2 weeks ago:
I didn’t get far, no. Every 3 feet, you see something move out on the corner of your eye and it completely stops everything. Over and over.
I know you can turn that off, but then I just end up dying lol
- Comment on My SO got a steamdeck today, and it's a lot better than I imagined it to be 2 weeks ago:
Could make it Bazzite, and it would probably work just a well as SteamOS
- Comment on My SO got a steamdeck today, and it's a lot better than I imagined it to be 2 weeks ago:
Would be cool if it had a hotkey you could hold while powering on that tells it to boot into desktop mode.
- Comment on My SO got a steamdeck today, and it's a lot better than I imagined it to be 2 weeks ago:
Yeah… There are a lot of things I really like about the game, but every time I’ve tried playing, I get outside the initial starting point (after filling my pockets with frozen meat and shit lol), it gets kind of meh…
Though I have heard good things about some of the mods/variations

Hotkey he apocalypse game
Heh. CDDA is pretty intense, but I’m a huge fan of how it handles inventory.

I’ll get a Switch 2 only for the first party Nintendo games (I’m a sucker for a good Mario game)

I’m thinking it’s for the Windows bloat… Gotta have more storage for it.

Oh damn, I’ve been exclusively on zip up hoodies for the past 2+ decades, but that might convince me to pick up a pullover
- Comment on GE-Proton 9-22 released with lots of game fixes for Linux / Steam Deck 1 month ago:
I don’t use decky loader so dunno what Wine caller is, but assuming it runts protonupqt through wine, that’s def unnecessary (I guess it could work?). The app is linux native, so you don’t need a translation layer like wine.
- Comment on GE-Proton 9-22 released with lots of game fixes for Linux / Steam Deck 1 month ago:
You can also add it as a “non-steam game” and run it without having to switch to desktop mode.
- Comment on Input lag with built-in controls? 1 month ago:
I dunno. I’ve never had any issues with input lag so
- Comment on Input lag with built-in controls? 1 month ago:
Maybe steam input is on when it isn’t needed for the game?

Wow, great arguments 🙄

I went to hit “edit” and accidentally deleted my comment. Lol derp.
What I said was:
The verification system is not remotely accurate. It probably does more harm than good. Valve should have made it crowdsourced like protondb because they’re obviously unable to keep up, and I don’t know why they thought they would be.
You are criticizing the verification system by comparing it to ProtonDB which, again, is a different thing.
Steam’s verification isn’t “inaccurate,” it just denotes which games will give you the “console experience” right out of the box. And for that purpose, it does just fine.
- Comment on The State of Steam Deck survey 2024: The results are in 1 month ago:
Well based on your comment, it seemed as thought you didn’t.
- Comment on The State of Steam Deck survey 2024: The results are in 1 month ago:
Valve is going for a console experience, and that means the games just work.
Obviously, with PC gaming, that is a nearly insurmountable challenge.
I think the check mark is their attempt at that, and that’s why it doesn’t match 1:1 with ProtonDB.
Even the most minimal amount of “tinkering,” like having to change the resolution the first time you open the game, or the game doesn’t have an option for the Deck’s resolution, will stop it from getting approved as “fully compatible”

You can what?

Protondb is the place to check.

Animal Well is one of the best games of the year. So good.
The less you know about anything going into it, the better.

I’ve found that Proton-GE works every time regular proton doesn’t. Haven’t tried it with D4 specifically though.

The reality is so so so much worse.
- Comment on Gaming 2024 4 months ago:
Steam Input is amazing, and something that I feel doesn’t get nearly as much credit as it deserves. You can literally make anything do anything. You can even create on-screen rotary menus and shit.
I saw a comment on Lemmy a while back where someone said they hated steam input and I just didn’t understand what possible issue anyone could ever have with it.

All the time

Finally. Thank god.

Yikes dude.
Learning when to say “you know what, I was wrong,” or even just, "my bad, I misspoke what what I originally said. What I actually meant was: " is a very important life skill as an adult. I hope you realize that one day.
- Comment on The Plucky Squire recently came out, and used the Steam Deck to represent PC 5 months ago:
You can also easily connect a mouse and keyboard (and monitor or TV if you want) if the controller doesn’t work well for the game.
Because it’s literally a PC.
- Comment on The Plucky Squire recently came out, and used the Steam Deck to represent PC 5 months ago:
Steam Deck is not just a PC, and its not just a handheld.
Yes. It’s both… And it is fully functioning as either.
- Comment on The Plucky Squire recently came out, and used the Steam Deck to represent PC 5 months ago:
Are you not aware of “Desktop mode”? Hold down the power button for a few second, click “switch to desktop mode,” and you’re literally using a fully functioning Linux PC.
