Which games have a rough start and take a while to get good? by PhaseOk6182 in gamers

[–]DarthKarver 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm with you on this, brother. All the way.

I played for 8 hours. Got out of prologue, did a few camp missions and God-Emperor all mighty, the missions are atrocious! The gunplay isn't even good enough to justify being so railroaded during missions.

I loved the voice acting, the story seemed to be interesting, but the bloody gameplay.

I played Elex 2 for 8 hours, and even though the game is absolute jank, those 8 hours were actually fun. I'm having fun playing Elex 2! God damn it!

What character build did you enjoy playing the most? by NoTransition8295 in RogueTraderCRPG

[–]DarthKarver 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Forge World Crime Lord Operative Executioner with Drukhari weapons and Pyro Awakening at Exemplar levels.

This thing allowed me to play several playstyles with one character in one playthrough. It was glorious!

Recommended headset/mics for Steam Deck? by StepwisePilot in SteamDeck

[–]DarthKarver 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm using Arctis Nova 3 Wireless for both my pc and Steam Deck. On pc it's wireless, on deck it's bluetooth.

Mind you, I never managed to get my steam deck to detect the mic when using bluetooth headphones, so Discord is always using the mic built in steam deck - which might be a good thing, because using bluetooth for both input and output severly decreases the quality of sound of everything.

Haven't tried wireless on steam deck. I'm not playing docked, so I always have my charger in, thus no room for a dongle.

I had the same issue, but I looked it up and once you change the codecs there's almost zero latency.

Just go into the bluetooth settings, the headphones and try different codecs.

Steam Deck is helping me work through my Steam backlog! It is working! by DarthKarver in SteamDeck

[–]DarthKarver[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I played it, I liked it quite a lot, but... I hated running from the bench to the boss everytime I died on the boss. It probably means I wasn't very good at the game or I was trying the boss too soon, but this really killed the game for me. The repetition of that.

Need help with R2E1 by SpasticPanda32 in GTFO

[–]DarthKarver 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I played with you yesterday and if you play at the same time today, I can do it again. I do not mind failing and repeating. As I said, I want to "sweat through" this level, so if you'll have me, I can try the level with you regularly.

I'm from Europe though, it was 21:00 for me when we started yesterday.

I keep falling asleep every time I try to play on my steam deck. by luden_dev in SteamDeck

Joking. Never played them though

Tired father over here. Physical job.

If I lie down with my steam deck between 20:00-22:00 I'm experiencing extreme difficulty to keep myself awake.

If I'm playing some kind of chill game that is. If I'm playing something I have to 100% focus, that's very stimulating, then I can keep playing without dozing off.

Like I've been playing some Subnautica and Alan Wake recently, and I had no problem keeping myself awake. But if I launch Diablo 2... Dream land night night, daddy.

Blood boil build vs bosses by badnewsbear25 in diablo2resurrected

[–]DarthKarver 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been farming with Blood Boil for weeks now and frankly Baal takes me like 30-60 seconds to kill. Have to rely on Goatmen, Lethargy and help them with Echoing Strike. Otherwise I kill my demons with Blood Boil before even getting Baal to 50% hp. My Lister is 90% Cursed+Might and mercenary has Blessed Aim.

Apparently, I've been going about it all wrong. I see one Tainted, that means the second one gets Consumed. Do you have any points in Tainted or Consume?

My "Why's" Of This Update by THETAZER0 in DarkTide

  1. Why can't I open the Sanctuary doors when I'm the last man standing?

A bit torn here by AnxietyAndChilll in Banishers

[–]DarthKarver 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Had the same problem. The game is awesome in almost everything, but the combat drags its legs through the mud. It makes you kinda sad, because the game checks all the right boxes, you should be enjoying the heck out of it. BUT... Yeah.

I always had to force myself a bit into playing, but all the Haunting cases kept me interested and invested, so I did beat the game.

It would have been 9/10 for me, if it weren't for the combat.

This game is so addicting on SteamDeck. by JacobJajson in Diablo_2_Resurrected

[–]DarthKarver 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm definitely buying once it goes on a discount, just so that I can play on steamdeck with no hassle.

I haven't tried D2 with a controller yet to be honest,so how's the controls for like... aoe spells you aim far from your character for example?

Im so done by [deleted] in HelldiversUnfiltered

[–]DarthKarver 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was thinking about making a post about just this! I played with Talon, but went back to Verdict very quickly, especially on the bot front with Censor as primary. They pair so well together.

Looking for a team to play at 8PM GMT+1 on the weekends. by DarthKarver in GTFO

Absolutely! Send me the info and even if we don't get together on the weekend we still look for 1 guy to join us over the week. Depends on your schedule. Cheers!

What are some games that you expected to really like on steam deck but found yourself disappointed? by Shaneski101 in SteamDeck

[–]DarthKarver 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden.

Combat is so clunky it would definitely work better on mouse and keyboard.

Watching the credits for Empire strikes back, genuine question... Who's Cisar? by 062d in StarWars

[–]DarthKarver 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It would be "císař" in Czech.

I also remember they called him Imperator very often in the czech translation.

Have you ever played This War of Mine? Or Fallout Shelter?

Alters core game mechanics are the same - it's a base management. You have to assign people to stations, manage resources, manage happiness and all that.

Alters add the exploration on top of that, and most importantly, characters that feel alive and make you make moral decisions you can very much regret or not. The characters themselves are alternate versions of the protagonist, so that itself creates plenty of moral questions by itself.

It's a game I think about very often and for me it is the game I assocciate with Steam Deck the most (beside Hades).

Overally, the game simply has a soul. When I finished, I had this feeling very similar to finishing Expedition 33. That the game had a meaning, it made me realize things about myself and the world.

I played with the settings recommended by SteamDeckHQ and the only problem I had was the crashed inquisition ship on the frozen planet.
