It's not Wheatley's fault! They plugged him into the Machine That Makes Robots Into Testing-Obsessed Maniacs! Sorry I've seen a lot of people decide he's just a bastard and he's not, he's a silly little chatterball and I love him. Hope he enjoys space.

The space core getting his wish made me so happy. Also the defective turrets. Especially the one that came out still in the box lmao.

It’s really such a delightful game. I obviously love my steamdeck but I hope Valve starts making narrative games again some day.

LividLiquid posted:It's one of the best games of all time and made a pile of money, but they didn't make the gross domestic product of Finland selling hats or loot crates in it so we'll never get another single-player game from Valve that isn't a loss-leader for a VR headset ever again. to this day, I still have no idea why valve thought portal 2 needed a cosmetics store

My 5 year old daughter took my deck while I was out and now it's a Dreamlight Valley and Unpacking player; apparently all my misgivings about the controller being a little large are now debunked.

What bitrate are you all using in Chiaki4deck? I was getting some audio static last night and want to make sure that’s not the issue.

Huh I just checked on a whim and saw that the Jsaux colored backplates are available. I must have missed a reminder. I ordered the clear purple one. I hope it fixes the squeakiness my stock body has in a couple spots.

Sweet! Also here’s another game report: I’ve been having a dilemma with Subnautica. I don’t want to dedicate my tv to a mindless out and back game (even though I love the genre) and it looks kinda bad on my switch. After some tinkering I got it to look pretty without going into leaf blower mode and now I get to enjoy this gorgeous game on the go and on my couch. Steam Deck! I’m actually playin games on it!

I would be interested in this, please give an update once you have it installed. My solution has been using the jsaux case to stop it, but would rather change out the back and go without a case.

We're very newb friendly because we all wish we could experience the game for the first time again, so we do it vicariously through new players. Just be sure to mention that this is your first time.

I haven't replaced the back plate, but I've swapped out the SSD on two decks and each one took like 15 minutes to do while following a YouTube guide. Swapping the back plate should take like two minutes as long as you have a pry tool or an old credit card or some really strong fingernails.

Rolo posted:Playing Portal 2 for the first time ever thanks to the deck.  Portal 2 is my most favourite game of all time and this post makes me beam! I love every last thing it does and it is one of the few perfect games I have played. If you can, DEFINITELY give the coop a go with a friend because the levels and story are all completely seperate and you will have the free extra dlc too with more levels and fun story!

I can’t imagine playing either portal on a controller as an especially great time, some of those on-the-move placements are pretty tight Maybe I’ll give it a spin and see for myself

Set the right trackpad to mouse (trackball mode, medium friction) so you can flick and tap for quick turns and stops, with gyro enabled when touching the trackpad so you can use the two in tandem. I've played every single FPS I've ever touched since the Steam controller came out that way, including TF2 and Overwatch and doing just as well as I ever did with a mouse. It might be a bit more awkward when the screen is moving as well, but you should only be using the gyro for fine adjustments so you're only nudging the Deck around rather than making any big movements.

One of these days I'll spend an hour or two in AimLab and try to force myself to get used to gyro aiming. I'm awful at shooters at the best of times, but doubly so on a gamepad.

Swapping the back plate should take like two minutes as long as you have a pry tool or an old credit card or some really strong fingernails. Yup, pretty much exactly this. As other posters have mentioned the biggest thing to remember is to take your SD card out ahead of time. I made sure to lie the deck on something soft so the screen doesn't get scratched up or anything, not that it's a risk, but why not? There is a SLIGHT gap near the right trigger, as if the body isn't quite snugging up against the housing. Perhaps I need to further tighten some screws, but it may be too far away to make a difference. This thing fucks Jack-Off Lantern posted:My hand gets nowhere close to it at all. Maybe I'll throw it back on. Some of the reasoning that I heard was that the deck doesn't really suffer from thermal issues so it was a bit superfluous? Not a deal killer either way
