I stalled out in power wash simulator for a couple of months because the treehouse has so many loving fiddly railings and little strips but SpongeBob SquarePants has pulled me back in and I took care of the treehouse first just to get over the hump

I got an estimated delivery date for my sale Deck, Friday 7/7. Which is nice, since it means I can pick up a few Deck favorites while the sale is still on. I kind of rush bought it as soon as the sale started since I assumed the discount would probably mean a wait list again but it looks like it's still 1-2 weeks.

Decks shipped out quickly when they had the last sale, too. I think Valve has mostly sorted out their issues with supply.

About Dave, I will say it definitely gets the fans going and the deck heats up noticeably while playing which seems a little odd for the graphical style. It is a pretty game with more effects than something like other pixel graphics games though.

Picked up Dave, too. It is very chill and charming. I refuse to use electric harpoons though, their gimmick is a super rapid stick wobble and I don't want to kill my control stick.

It is a pretty game with more effects than something like other pixel graphics games though. I haven't played Dave yet so this is just a shot in the dark, but try turning on the framerate limiter. A lot of little 2D pixel art games basically run unbounded, which means the hardware is just making GBS threads out as many frames as it possibly can. You can end up with the most undemanding games turning a 4080 into a jet engine because they're trying to run at a billion frames per second.

I’ve been playing Kingdom Come and sometimes the Deck won’t properly come back after I sleep it. The game flashes in the screen for half a second and then the switch restarts. I did recently turn my device to offline mode. Are those two things related?

Just wanted to mention that Garden Galaxy is a fantastic Steam Deck game, even if you better tweak the controls a bit first. Gives of serious Animal Crossing kind of chill vibes, even though it's even simpler. Been playing it for hours, arranging my perfect little garden and discovering/getting new ways to make it cozier bit by bit. I love it, and I don't usually play games for hours on end.

the void rains upon her heart is on sale for the first time in 100 years and it's really excellent on deck as well as being excellent in general. i'm surprised there aren't more bullet hell roguelikes.

Was going to buy a Switch but a Steamdeck is almost the same price right now as a Switch and two first party Nintendo games.

PageMaster posted:I got the dbrands one mostly for grip as well, and they also keep the touch sensor working. It's not completely perfect and sometimes It seems like the touch stops working but I just pick up my thumb and put it back and it works again. Overall I've been pretty happy with them and I find out incredible more comfortable playing with them on. There was probably a much easier way to find this post than how I did it, but hopefully I got to you in time; TLDR: grips don't work perfectly with the Steam Deck and keep "losing" touch; I spent 2 weeks messing around with this and there is something off about the Dbrand grips that doesn't play well with the stick touch (at least with Gyro). They start working fine, but then after moving the stick in any direction(s) a random number of times, the stick touch is no longer active (ie: no more gyro). Simply tapping the track pad re-enables the stick touch and you can just put your thumb back on the grip and everything works again (until you move the stick again). It's not one or the other, but I guess a combo of the rip and stick (or steam controller software)? because without the grip, the stick and touch work just fine(ie: the touch continues to work even with stick movement), but the grip obviously does pass through touch because you can see that it actually does still work with the stick touch, just for some reason it's like something about it causes the stick touch to stop functioning until you either tap the track pad or go to the steam menu then back into the game. Maybe there's some "cutoff" in the software that decides when you're not touching the stick sensor (or something else) and the grip happens to trigger that Maybe surface area? No clue, but I would not get these if the touch is essential, and it looks like this is a common issue on reddit as well. edit: apparently it' just any stick caps; i've tried 3, all have the same problem where movinng the joystick seems to disable the touch sensor.

Paradoxish posted:I think Valve has mostly sorted out their issues with supply. In the UK, the 64GB and 256GB decks have been out of stock since mid April. Now the 512GB is also gone thanks to the sale. In that time I have gone through the full cycle of curious, considering getting one, definitely getting one, then giving up and buying a backbone one instead to stream from my ps5.

I saw the 64GB Deck available on UK Steam at the start of the sales, so I think it's been restocked a few times, it's just never been enough.

Yeah when I checked the shipping dates at the start of the sale the 64 and 256 models were showing as shipping in 2 weeks but the 512 was sold out.

I use right trackpad as mouse, right joystick as zoom in-out (with 'turbo' on so it repeats), bumpers as rotate (Q/E), joystick click as 'back to center'(F) and one of the backbuttons as CTRL to be able to select multiple things. And of course triggers as mouse buttons and d-pad/left joystick as directional buttons.
