I finally was able to make the full purchase, I fully expect this thing to become a Klei Entertainment device once I have it in my hands.

I would definitely buy a steam controller 2 if it had the exact same sticks that the steam deck has. then I would retire my gyroless xbox controller for good.

FuzzySlippers posted:Using the pads as a fake mouse seems pretty miserable to me trying to play a couple things. Like it works but I can't imagine playing a full mouse driven game. Maybe you get used to it as I eventually got used to a thumb trackball for couch gaming. I was messing around Age of Mythology and Dragon Age: Origins I thought both played impressively well one you fiddle a bit with community layouts for the controls. really depends on the complexity of the game. I wouldn't play something like Stellaris without a kb+m.

Detective No. 27 posted:I saw GameXplain’s Uncharted Steam Deck impressions and they xplained that Uncharted worked pretty well on Steam Deck but it ate through battery and it loses something in the transition to a small handheld screen since it’s meant to be this theatrical gaming experience meant for a bigger screen. If you got the rig for it it's worth just streaming the larger games from your desktop. I've been playing CP2077 with raytracing on steam deck thanks for that steam link feature. just got to wait for my dock to finally arrive and I can play it on my TV

Thirsty Dog posted:If you have an Nvidia card, then using Nvidia's Gamestream can be even better than the Steam Link. No detectable input lag and less finicky than Steam Link. I took a swing at this and the immediate problem seems to be you lose a lot of the keybindings from the community. Which is a real bummer!

Twobirds posted:I realize this is a blind suggestion, but is going to be easier to get a functional modset going on a Windows PC, then copying the install folder to the microSD for Steam on the Deck to 'discover'? I did this with some Gamebryo games when I moved between PCs and while I still had to fix some minor things, it was easier than starting from scratch. the research I've done suggests at the moment, it's easier to do the modding on pc, then transfer over. I've going to give a bit of time for people to get adjusted to the console, I'm sure a cleaner way of getting a modlist going on the steam deck will come along with time.

I really recommend installing decky loader, having protondb badges on most steam games is very useful. https://github.com/SteamDeckHomebrew/decky-loader

There is also a plugin to replace sounds, music and another one that will replace boot animations. You too can have Mario wishing you buh bye when you suspend your Steam Deck

Just install the protondb badges through decky loader. protondb is crowdsourced internet website that it going to try a lot of games out way faster than valve can verify them.

I'm really jazzed to play all the crpgs I've bought over the years, maybe get into some of the systems heavy games while on the go. I'm sure the controls will need a little fiddling but community layouts have been pretty good.

I've invested a lot of time into my dead cells game on the switch and I can't really see why it would be that much better on the steam deck. I gotta invest more in those nintendo exclusives though.

I do think with the switch and the deck I kind of have all my bases covered in terms of games. I'm glad I never took the effort to buy an Xbox Series X/S.

Rupert Buttermilk posted:I can't stand playing the Switch in portable mode but I'm also not even considering getting a steam dock. The deck feels so much more comfortable.

Chimp_On_Stilts posted:One of my few complaints about the Deck is the touchscreen. It just does not feel as precise, sensitive, and good to use as my phone. Hopefully v2 has a better one (and OLED). This is one field where the switch has the deck beat, imo. Maybe it's more of a software thing and it can improve in time.

I think the steam deck is high profile enough that it'll have some affect industry-wise. How much is impossible to say. edit: devs going back to fix old games is probably unlikely but perhaps moving forward the steam deck could be a target Lord Lambeth fucked around with this message at 23:00 on Nov 1, 2022 |
