tango alpha delta posted:Manually optimizing games for the deck is actually a fun little mini game and I’m learning a bit about low powered hardware at the same time. A good starting point in my experience is start at low and crank the textures up. Though it's always fun to see how badly a modern game will run cranked up to ultra, I think Bob Wulff tried running Apex at 4K through the dock and got sub-1fps. Humble have a cyberpunk bundle up right now which I grabbed, all of the games in it are verified or playable on Deck.

Thanks for the posts about Dolphin's controls. I've been on a huge Alien kick (thanks Dark Descent) and I just a saw Colonial Marines was $5 and runs on Deck so I finally get to try thatZ

Be sure to fix the typo to make the game actually run how it was intended to. quote:Late last year James Dickinson revealed that changing an apparent spelling mistake in an INI file from "Teather" to "Tether" creates a huge change in how the alien Xenomorphs track and attack the player throughout the game. If you fix it to look like the above and then play the game, the difference is pretty crazy!

I had to RMA my Deck due to an intermittent APU crash and the process was relatively painless and quick. Got my new Deck today and I swear it runs smoother and with better battery life than the previous one. Bonus: the vent smell is back.

Detective No. 27 posted:Linus would have been exactly the same type of person who would have hyped up the Game Gear over Game Boy back in 1991 because the Game Gear had color and was more powerful. Yeah he's also the one guy on the internet still making GBS threads on Apple hardware like it's 2003, he just doesn't really seem to really value things like user experience, convenience or stuff being built nice. I think his stance is perfectly valid even if I don't agree with it, it just gets kind of annoying when there's hordes of people for whom he's their end all be all source on all things tech who then act like anyone who doesn't agree with their 'objective' correct opinion is an idiot making their decisions out of ignorance.

I dunno, I've tried various Macs/MacOS versions over the years, and I've never found the UX to be any better than Windows. In fact, given the dominance of Windows in the market, it's it's somewhat worse because there are features/quirks that don't translate between the two. And nothing about Apple products is "high quality" enough to justify the prices they charge. It's a blatant cash grab to charge as much as they do for the products they offer. For 90% of casual users, an Apple product is a status symbol, not a "superior" value.

LMAO iPads are the only tablet device worth the money because they have absolutely superb apps for composing music, 3d sculpting and 2D drawing. Android devices simply don’t have the same software selection. The Steamdeck is also an amazing product and an incredible value for what it offers.

If you’re an artsy fartsy type of any stripe you’re already almost guaranteed to be in the Apple ecosystem because that’s who they’ve been targeting forever so of course you’ll like the iPad If you just want a rectangle to poke at the internet on there are plenty of perfectly cromulent other tablets, you just have to not buy the cheapest and shittiest thing possible just like in most every other ‘what should I buy?’ scenario. My tablets exist solely as e-readers for pdfs and comic books and even from a storage perspective alone lol gently caress off with your pricing model and lack of expansion Apple.

For getting poo poo done Linux and Windows dominate, but Apple poo poo just lets me doodle whenever the mood strikes. I also am really enjoying tweaking my Steamdeck so that I can play Mass Effect for 4 hours at 60 fps. The Deck is amazing at low power. tango alpha delta fucked around with this message at 15:27 on Jul 13, 2023 |

I don’t want this to end up in a Windows/Mac derail, but I converted to Apple for my phone and computing needs last year and I just can’t go back to Android/Windows*. Say what you want about the price and how people treat them as status symbols, they understand the user experience. I messed around with a friend’s Windows phone in the early smart phone era and good lord was it a nightmare to use. *Ironically I ended up building a gaming PC just last weekend. Video games are Apple’s gigantic blind spot.

Interesting that SSD isn’t in the minimum spec, rift apart was the game they made the biggest song and dance about needing their special solid state drive loading magic to play on PS5 so if it also works on mechanical drives that’s lol

I’m really interested in the DF review of that game. I remember Sony’s marketing for the PS5 version focused on how the speed of the SSD made the game impossible to run on PS4. I’m curious to see how the PC version acts when it’s played off a HDD, unless it’s one of the games like Starfield or the upcoming Cyberpunk update that doesn’t allow HDDs.

You have to remember that these consoles are like several year old PCs whittled down to do only one thing.

DF tested slower than spec SSDs with it and found that while performance was about equal, they did have more texture pop-in and some noticable loading stutters. So I expect HDDs might be like that, possibly even with full bore loading screens added between areas. It's also telling that HDDs are only listed for absolute minimum specs, presumably where textures and models are small enough that they can be streamed in from an HDD fast enough. Still, probably going to be able to manage a solid 60fps at low settings on Deck and almost certainly 40fps at medium, maybe even high.
