I got a steam deck and it rules. The trackpad makes controls so much nicer than a typical console controller for a PC gamer weak fingered baby like me.

Do you all use a case or skin on your deck? What about a screen protector?

I'm assuming the screen is like, gorilla glass or some poo poo, right? Like a phone? And screen protectors do affect touch sensitivity/accuracy a little.

I do kinda want to put a d-brand skin on mine though

I feel like a dumbass. I'm trying to get Diablo 4 going on my steam deck and am following this guide: https://overkill.wtf/how-to-install-the-diablo-iv-beta-on-steam-deck/

I get to step 5. I hit "play" on the launcher installer, it sits on "running" in Steam, but nothing appears and nothing happens.

I’m not sure honestly because that’s pretty much the guide I followed and it works fine? Maybe you missed a step in there?

I repeated them just to make sure. I don't know wtf. Maybe I'll turn it off and on again.

What proton ge version are you using? There have been some since this guide, maybe it now needs a newer one?

Also, are you launching from Game Mode or still in Desktop? I had to launch it in desktop the first time (and set it fullscreen).

edit: Yeah, folks love Lutris too.

Desktop mode and I was on the default compatibility mode because the guide says "During the beta, it was important to choose GE-Proton 7.51 or Proton Experimental. Follow our guide here to learn how to install GE-Proton. But it seems, it now works without pre-selecting a compatibility layer."

I will try Lutris, that looks useful!

I'd try the newest Proton-GE compat since you already did the pre-steps, but yeah, Lutris also works and is nice for things on Epic Games Launcher and the 6000 free games they've given that never get any love.

okay that's awesome, I wanted to try the Expanse game on the Epic store actually on my steam deck! Gonna do that after work, thanks gang, teamwork makes the dream work

Every time I pass through Canadian customs, they swab my deck for drugs. They don't bother swabbing my switch. I'm not joking.
