Rupert Buttermilk posted:How does the deck handle multiple users? Do you have to log back on fully every time? My wife and I currently share a gaming laptop and it's not the worst thing, but we always have to log out the other person and log in (with the authenticator code) every time, when it goes from her to me and vice versa. Google yourself up “steam account switcher”, it lets you switch Steam accounts (on computers) without passwords or Steam Guard. I think it also helps when the Deck kicks your PC out of Steam, now that I consider it.

fadam posted:Other than Vampire Survivors, any recommendations for a roguelike I can screw around in and half pay attention to while watching TV? Not a roguelike but Siralim Ultimate is a sort of - turn based party combat game where you collect monsters and beat the poo poo out of bad monsters. It has a billion hours of content if it clicks with you and is mostly based around constructing ridiculous synergies and feeling like a genius. And you can only half-pay attention because it's turn based and doesn't move if you're not moving. I am not a smart tactical gamer and I still love it.

ChiTownEddie posted:Maybe a super niche question, but has anyone used nicer headphones with the deck? Like the Senn hd58x/6xx/600/650 or whatever? I'm curious if it can drive them alright. I just plugged in my HD650s, and they're driven very well at max volume, better than my iPhone 12 over lighting to 3.5mm. Not loud, but in a good listening range for a room with a fan in it.

Still waiting on valve CS to respond to my ticket about my vanishing deck payment. Shipment tracker says the deck is still on its way... there's no way though right? I'm not gonna get to sniff that vent until they get my moneys Just hoping my reservation slot isn't in jeopardy because of it

Hollow Knight of course. Starting to mess with Rogue Legacy 2. I have a long plane ride coming up and am planning on getting a lot of Disco Elysium time in. I also recently grabbed Undertale and CrossCode. I loved A Short Hike.

Got mine today and the first thing i did was sniff the vent exhaust even before seeing the thread title. Great minds, etc. Anyone figure out discord on this thing? I've found a few guides online but I'd like the goon opinion. Thanks! Edit: it's also really annoying that i can't charge this in the case. My headphones are the same way and it drives me nuts. Oh well! C'est la vie! Spaghett fucked around with this message at 03:43 on Sep 21, 2022 |

Man, I need to loving cut down on buying games. I'm mostly a console player so my Steam Library was only maybe 75 games when I got the Deck. But I'm so enamored with the idea of "ooh I can play that portable now" I just keep buying poo poo. Most of it I already own. Must have bought 60+ games in the last few months lol. Most of it was bundles fortunately,. But still it's like, calm down Veni you have enough games it would take 5 years to get through this backlog. Or maybe buy a new game you haven't already played to death? I am dumb. This humble poo poo is killing me though. They just keep doing bundles of games I really want a PC copy of. Must have bought 5 or 6 of them

Once your steam library balloons to a certain size (and Humble gets you there so goddamn fast) you really need collections for your library to be usable at all, really.

It wouldn't have left Chicago if they hadn't successfully taken the funds from the payment method. My bank declined my first transaction as fraud (despite telling them it was legit) but there was a second transaction shortly after without needing to check out again. I would only be concerned if you had strikethroughs in both transactions in your acct purchase history. You are going to get your deck. Maybe fedex loses it and another one has to ship, but you will get the deck you paid for. It took a year to get here. Stress not, gentle goon. Lol that you are already stressing about it and fedex decides to add to it, though. Classic fedex.
