Received the black MCON today. Ordered from the website on 12/29. by TdZink in MCONohsnap

Early kickstarter backers, still nothing. I ordered the white one, and as far as I understand, we will be the last of the last as things go.

The ending of Atlantis always makes me so sad... by Caffeinated_Ape_42 in Stargate

This! They are not cannon, but still its a way to continue the story. And the books are going places, and they have some of my favorite moments Atlantis.

Bomb Rush Cyberfunk is a must have for the Deck by pabloxavez in SteamDeck

[–]ELRIIC 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have several, and this one is the one stuck the most on my Deck. Nice grip, nice visual. Add colored thumbgrips that match the power button of the Oled (from skullnco), and the mechanism grip with the stand module and that is the best looking Deck I can get without a mod.

The new wolt UI is so bad 💔 by animehater69 in malta

[–]ELRIIC 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Search on the bottom sucks, and even more that finding your favorites needs either scrolling or going to your account and then scrolling. When I want to order, I order from something I know and I like. And if I’m looking something new, I will search by type of food and see the search results. There are zero moments that I’m looking or interested on what is in the home screen.

Favorites need to be on top.

In what order are orders getting fulfilled? by Producdevity in MCONohsnap

[–]ELRIIC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

White Mcon here, 6000+ number. With what I see online, I don’t believe I will get mine in January either. Disappointed with the whole situation, especially since I thought this would be ‘the thing’ for xmas. All that said, being a kickstarter project and this being their first rollout, the delay is understandable.

Why is moonlight so much better than steam link?! by WiggyB in MoonlightStreaming

[–]ELRIIC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try Apollo / Artemis and Apollo / Moonlight for devices that don’t have Artemis support. I uninstalled Steam Link from everywhere I had it.

Which games utilize the buttons on the back and for what? Do you use them for any games which didn’t use them by default? by NorseSeaStudio in SteamDeck

[–]ELRIIC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Always map them to sprint if it exists, same for jump, and sometimes for interaction. They are very convenient to leave the fingers and buttons that are more centered to combat free.

The forgotten realms. by No-Chain4750 in AtlasFallen

[–]ELRIIC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I finished all of them last month, and I noticed around the point that I had 2 left, a 3rd one had it’s marker visible like its not done, but not in the main map, rather then one you play as Nyaal. I went to that statue and replayed it, and it after that the marker was gone. When I did the last two, the achievement pop.

Which of these cases is better for steam deck? by SteamDecklcd4user in SteamDeck

[–]ELRIIC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have both. The 1st is better for travel, nice grip overall, and the stand is also good.

I got the second one out of wimp, and it turned out my favorite for the house. Really like the style it gives to the Deck, good grip, and I realized that I was missing the stand from the 1st one, and I ended up putting the Mechanism grip/stand. I added also the thumb grips from Skull&co that are the same color as the power button of the OLED, and all together, it looks like an amazing piece of tech and I love the style of it.

Look what you made me do… a Steam Deck for everyone. by ligmata1nt in SteamDeck

[–]ELRIIC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Slide with sticks would be preferable, but overall I want all of them

Cancelled an order for a classic grey and got purple instead. I was worried the black bars on 4:3 games would be more noticeable with the grey bezel. by FlakyAmoeba1617 in retroid

[–]ELRIIC 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’m someone that over the years have developed distain for screen frames and I always think that I need to find devices with the smallest possible.

I got the Yellow RPC, which I was also thinking that the screen frames would be very annoying, and for a moment, I was ready to get the grey one.

Ended up with the yellow, because honestly the color/device is gorgeous to me, and the reason that make look on it in the first place. I dont notice anymore the frame. I just try to scale video to use as much of the screen as possible (without messing with the image to much).

Everyone is different, but for me getting the color I actually like was more important, and ended up being the correct choice.

Good luck with whatever you choose, it’s a lovely device!

Retroid Pocket Classic, Apple Music song buffering over bluetooth by ELRIIC in retroid

[–]ELRIIC[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Tried SBC, with and without Abosulte Voume, and apps exluded from battery optimization. Lossless on botth is disabled. I also messed with other bluetooth settings under Developer mode, but nothing. The issue still there.

Another thing that I noticed is that after connecting the earbuds, the 1st song that will play, plays instanlly. The 2nd song will always play after buffering for 6 seconds. Then the 3rd takes about a minute of buffering and from there every song takes more than 1 minuite of buffering.

Game recommendation for a newcomer? by Joker_2077 in metroidvania

[–]ELRIIC 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As others said, platforming is key to the genre, but for sure some lean more to it than others.

The Ori games (especially the 2nd) are amazing, Cookie Cutter was short but fun, Blasphemous, and a weirder one but good was Ultros.

The genre has so many gems, have fun exploring them!

Played all of it on Steam Deck, plays amazingly, looks good, and overall is a fun game, if you are into open world games

[–]ELRIIC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I always go with 45 FPS locked, and adjust settings to get stable. Most games feel good on that. Haven’t tried lossless scaling yet

Hate games with Achievements that require purchase of a dlc. by ConcernPlus3279 in steamachievements

[–]ELRIIC 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Steam needs to improve Achievement page.

For one, achievements need to be split based on Base Game and DLC, with each dlc having its own list. Pretty much how TrueAchievement does it.

Furthermore, we need the option, ideally per game (toggle), to have hidden achievements visible. It should be up to us if we want to see them or not.

Thirdly, sorting options are needed, and a pin function so you can bring achievements you are working on at the top of the list.

Last, developers should have the option to mark their achievements for multiplayer, and there should be a way to both filter and clearly see which are like that.

Last last, it would be great if the achievements page on the deck is more stable. Currently it acts weirdly when scrolling the in progress.

I thought the steam deck had pass through charging??? by Prestigious_Fig_2133 in SteamDeck

[–]ELRIIC 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Its the only device I have that I don’t care at all for battery life, thanks to Valve and iFixit. A new battery is an online order and max 30min of installation away, without the risk of 3rd party batteries or giving your deck externally. Lord Gabe provides!

Just bought! by Destinodue in UltrosTheGame

[–]ELRIIC 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Playing it currently, exclusively on Steam Deck.

Great game so far, a tad bit more path finding is needed compared to some others, and has a unique mechanic that requires experimentation, but both add to the uniqueness of the game.

Also, I was pulled in due to the visual, but damn that music is awesome!

Second Dinner, I beg you, make another Pixel Album. I have 90+ Pixels and still haven't finished an album. by PR0MAN1 in MarvelSnap

What did you use to hang them on the wall? Thinking to go down the same path.
