I’ve been really wanting to get a steamdeck. I’ve been playing a lot on my modded switch, but there is a lot I want to play that is not available on the switch....
My hands cramp and my thumb joints hurt with certain games on the switch. The left joycon broke (not stuck drift) so I replaced it and then like a week later the right joycon broke.
I am still kinda pissed at how expensive the joycons are. If I knew they were both going to break, I would have just bought a Steamdeck instead.
So far, I’ve been pretty lucky with switch emulation. When I really looked at it, just about all the games that are switch exclusive l, that I’m interested in work well.
Plus, I still have my switch incase it will not run.
Yeah, I did an inventory of my games and most are also on PC. The only exceptions that I care about are Mario odyssey, Metroid, and tears of the kingdom.
There is not any place where I can see one in person where I live. So sadly, I can’t get a feel for it.
But I’m thinking that the weight will not bother me too much, if it does, I think it’s preferable to the hand cramping and joint pain I get from the switch.
Additionally I’m just playing it in the house. I just don’t like being tied to the desktop.
The 256GB and 512GB Steam Decks come with some digital rewards, such as an exclusive steam profile customization bundle and a unique virtual keyboard (keyboard is 512GB only). Previously these rewards were not available to refurbished deck buyers, but Valve plans to change that and make these rewards available regardless of...
Opened instagram to watch some new reels and the keyboard was up and I could not get it to go away. Tapping on the reel just muted it. Going out of Instagram and back in did nothing. I am coming from android and on the google keyboard (gboard) there is a button on the bottom right where iOS’ microphone is that will minimize...
I completely agree. It’s hard for a lot if people to look at the big picture and realize that the data handed over was likely for some pretty serious illegal stuff.
Additional, most people just are trying to hide their data from advertisers.
I’m an apple user, but I really think the issue is being created by apple. They talked about doing iMessage on android and then someone else was like no we can’t we want people to be locked into their iPhone.
Not sure if I got subnautica. There was a crpg series they gave away. I forget the name, but i was about the buy it on steam and recognized the artwork. I checked on Epic and sure enough I had the triology.
I played this game back when it released on Gamecube. I honestly have almost 0 memories of this game. I only kinda sorta remember a specific room or two and not even well enough to really explain them....
Thanks! I will take a look at that option. In regards to those kinds of windows utility, they normally run just fine with wine. I am surprised how many utilities just run perfectly and are able to patch games. I have used some utilities like this to patch wiiu games without any problems.
It took me about two and a half hours to get to the forest temple. The goat herding was really annoying. I didn’t mind the basket, but I think it is because I knew there were something to do with that monkey.
I’ve never played skyward sword. The control scheme was really annoying on the switch and I am not sure that I care to get used to it. Maybe i will muscle through it for the sake of completeness.
I’m looking forward to playing some more when I have time this week. Another thought is that I’m not a fan of how the fighting works in wolf form. It’s annoying to leap for an enemy for them to just move out of the way by chance.
Yeah, websites are too heavy. Not that my computer can’t handle it, but I’m literally only going to look at the text so why make me wait extra to load all these graphics and images.
I agree that game sizes are pretty ridiculous these days. This and Baldurs Gate 3 will take up the entirety of my only space ssd. Sadly prices where I live are still decently high.
I’m sure things could be done to optimize the size. With the BTRFS filesystem, you can have things autocompress in a transparent way. So, I installed like 600gb of games, but it only took up 450gb of space because of filesystem compression. Additionally, files load like they are just a normal file.
I wonder how much space would be saved by installing this game to that filesystem.
Is there any reason to have a Switch and a Steamdeck,
