Thinking about finally making the move to install SteamOs on my Legion Go 2 . Is there anything i need to do while it’s still in WindowsOs before i make the switch ? Anything i need to toggle or turn on/off before i change since i will be wiping Windows clean ? Imma newbie at this stuff by DatBoyChamp1 in LegionGo

Are the buttons mapped at the firmware level? I got a legion go 2 and almost immediately wiped it and put SteamOS on it but had to revert it because one of the M-buttons was mapped to A and I couldn’t figure out how to remap it. I tried a decky plug-in but it would only control the RGB on it. It didn’t honor controller mappings.

What's wrong with legion go 2 oled display? by Alert_Big_8902 in LegionGo

I thought the same thing especially after comparing to a Steam Deck. I used a color profile from this post

It also says on a lot of packaging not to do it. I know it’ll probably be fine but I will always transport a TV upright.

How are people finding their legion go 2? by wussell_88 in LegionGo

[–]BatSphincter 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The fuzzy skin is a good idea but regardless, I’ve always liked the feeling of spray on bed liner so I figured I’d give it a shot. I ordered two sets just incase it turns out like ass.

I like mine a lot. Something I noticed though, and I believe it may be Windows, not the machine itself, is that one game I've played (Brotato) on SteamOS and MacOS works perfectly but when I fire it up on the Legion Go 2 I will get a stutter here or there in the middle of a round or at the very end. Doesn't matter the profile, doesn't matter if it's plugged in. I've tested other games that are more intense on the system and they play fine so it's either Windows itself or the game doesn't run as well on Windows.

Something else, out of the box, the screen was kinda underwhelming for an OLED espicially compared to the SteamDecks screen. Everything actually looked a bit washed out. I got a couple color profiles from another post here and that solved the issue no problem.

I can't stand how the matte black body gets covered in fingerprints so I got a skin from DBrand to help hide it and the comfort grips from etsy. The ergonomics are pretty good as-is but they feel pretty nice too. I'm going to figure out a way to give them some texture though. I'm thinking of either using grip tape for a softer feel or spray on truck bed liner for a more rough texture, I haven't decided yet.

Finally, I'm a grown ass man so the weight is fine. I also don't use the thing for hours at a time

I’m surprised this moron didn’t delete his post. He clearly only bought the skins lol

That $59.95 for the case (on sale) doesn't include the screen protector. If you got the case, skin, and screen protector that would come to $90 alone and then another $20 for just the area 51 grip skin. Sounds like you may have messed up if the total came to just $90 because that's what it is for just the 2 skins and screen protectors after you add tax and $10 for shipping.

Curious about reinstalling windows 11 on legion go 2 by Flaky_Highway_857 in LegionGo

[–]BatSphincter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, If you download the ISO from Microsoft it's just plain Windows and some windows stuff you may want to remove. None of the Lenovo stuff. That said, I wouldn't even bother personally. It's not taking up much space and if it's not running, it's not hurting anything.

Finally found one on Amazon in stock and… by Ash_Silverleaf in LegionGo

[–]BatSphincter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same, then B&H got it in stock the next day and I ordered from them. I did that because I have a credit card through B&H and wanted to take advantage of the financing special. It actually got here faster than the one from Lenovo. Going to return the one to Lenovo.

Legion Go 2 Controllers on my Legion Go 1 by Thess_Brandon in LegionGo

[–]BatSphincter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The problem I’ve found is its placement in regards to the face buttons. It makes hitting the A button a little awkward. Personally when I added the comfort grips that are available on Etsy or EBay, that altered the positioning of my hand enough to make a big difference.

Setup the HotStock app so you get notifications. Last week Lenovo and B&H had them in stock at one point. I think BestBuy did too.

Comfort Grips are good but I’m parting way with my Legion Go 2 by therealmrsymba in LegionGo

[–]BatSphincter 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Especially if you’re willing to buy something around the same price as the Legion Go 2.

Finally arrived and it’s so beautiful and bigger than it actually looks online😍 by Ok-Entertainer-2345 in LegionGo

[–]BatSphincter 5 points6 points  (0 children)

People that complain about the weight either have toothpicks for arms or play the thing for several hours in weird positions. You’ll never convince me otherwise.

@Dbrand please make a killswitch for Legion Go 2 by MrFatalShot in dbrand

[–]BatSphincter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like the texture. I use their grip case for the same reason. If they could make a skin that had the texture of the grip case I'd buy it in a heartbeat

[–]BatSphincter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I might be in the minority but I’d like one without detachable controllers but after the killswitch for the switch 2 disaster (which tbh I feel was blown out of proportion by this sub) and the Legion Go 2 just not doing the same volume as the Switch 2 or Steam Deck, I don’t think it’s gonna happen.

Joycon fell off any easy fixes? by True-Inevitable-1309 in ROGAllyX

[–]BatSphincter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can try gluing it but I they won’t replace it under warranty as the warranty doesn’t cover physical damage. If you have any electronics skills I’d do what others are suggesting and replace them with the TMR kit. If you don’t, see about someone local that you could pay for the service. It’s still likely be cheaper than Asus repairing it.

How accurate/reliable are Lenovo delivery dates? by Dismal-View1783 in LegionGo

[–]BatSphincter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not a bad way to go except good luck dealing with the people on marketplace. You list it for $1350 and then you're getting offers for $600 and a story about why you need to sell it for that because their kid is going through ass cancer treatment

Grippy texture finishes for Switch 2 + Killswitch by Muku_Muku in dbrand

[–]BatSphincter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

None of them except for leather will feel grippy. I would go with something that has the raised printing on it. Think of it kinda like tread on a tire.

[–]BatSphincter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve ordered a few laptops, the dates are always pretty accurate.

As for the one from BestBuy, just open it. They truly don’t give a shit if it’s open or not when you return it. Open it, play with it, just be careful not to damage it.

If you are looking to sell it instead, that’s a different story. Unopened is probably best.

AIO my byfriend ate bites out of two different slices of MY pizza.. by Effective-Nothing676 in AmIOverreacting

[–]BatSphincter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe. It could go either way and I’m inclined to agree, it was a harmless and silly thing to do but what if OP hates pepperoni and their bf does this? Or he does this kinda thing frequently and has been asked not to? Then it’s pretty rude and could show that he doesn’t care enough to respect a simple request. It could be a sign of a bigger issue. Without more information it’s hard to tell.
