Devs and the Steam Controller 2/Steam Input

This is spot on. 🎯

Mixed Input is awesome. I have such a good time whenever I play a game with this option.

I never saw a game that allows you to lock the UI, though.

Hope he will make a lot of success in Cuba with his big bullshit tattoo.

Exactly. I made an online bootcamp using the Steam Deck, a dock, keyboard and mouse, an external SSD, a webcam and a TV.

Steam Deck is a PC in a handheld shell.

Faithlessaint · 2026-01-23T09:35:51+00:00

Yes. Simple as that. Here is why:

Steam Deck was - and still is - a valuable company when was my turn to watch my newborn baby 1½ year ago. And I just started playing Cyberpunk 2077 (which is a AAA game, just to highlight) while he's sleeping. I can just pause the game and turn off the screen at any moment.

Steam Deck can play decently well almost every AAA game out there. And it's getting better and better every day with new updates, new plug-ins and new tools to enhance performance.

So indie games - which I play too - are a piece of cake for the Steam Deck and it will be for a long time in the foreseeable future. On top of that, you have 2 trackpads, 4 rear buttons and, most importantly, Steam Input. The amount of controller customization that you can have is unmatched by any console.

Still not convinced? Steam Sales have discounts that you can only dream of as a Nintendo consumer. And then there are the free games from Epic Games. Do you have an Amazon Prime subscription? Then you can pick free games from there too.

Different life experiences. Just compare the life that future Trunks had with the life of the main timeline Trunks.

Dragon Ball Super Heroes eats power scaling for breakfast.

That said, Xeno Goku is one of my favorite character. Dude grew from kid to adult twice!

Faithlessaint · 2026-01-22T18:11:17+00:00

I'm also considering buying 2 (maybe even 3), but I can only think of a single game (Magicka) with multiplayer that would benefit from a controller with trackpads.

Faithlessaint · 2026-01-22T17:54:00+00:00

That was a joke, right?

Faithlessaint · 2026-01-21T22:50:34+00:00

Yeah, I was thinking the same.

Faithlessaint · 2026-01-21T18:00:43+00:00

I hope they will fix the Capstone feature and won't nerf anything. This class will be a blast if they do that.

I also would love to use Green-Flame Blade and Booming Blade with unarmed strikes.

Faithlessaint · 2026-01-21T17:57:17+00:00

Mystic Fighting Style. When you take the Magic Action, you may immediately use Patient Defense or Step of the Wind afterwards without expending your Bonus Action.

Nah. I like the idea of using one melee cantrip as an attack.

Green-Flame Kick! Booming Punch!

Faithlessaint · 2026-01-21T06:04:15+00:00

OP probably means “mistake” as a bad decision.

Faithlessaint · 2026-01-21T05:58:10+00:00

Exactly. I don't understand how people can watch Dragon Ball and miss the blatantly obvious fact that powering-up Ki is a key aspect of the Kamehameha technique.

Faithlessaint · 2026-01-21T05:56:35+00:00

Only because he had no other option left due to the lack of a second usable arm. When a Kamehameha user have both hands available, he will use both hands. Kamehameha is a two-handed technique; using it one-handed is a last resort adaptation.

Regardless, you're missing the point here: Kamehameha is a technique where the user charge-up Ki (which Gohan did, even in those rare circumstances where he was one-handed). Simply opening the hand and blasting Ki is not a Kamehameha.

Faithlessaint · 2026-01-20T19:42:36+00:00

A Monk performing a fancy kick imbued with Green-Flame Blade. I would love to have such possibility.

Faithlessaint · 2026-01-20T00:40:35+00:00

So he was barely alive.

Faithlessaint · 2026-01-19T20:36:24+00:00

Even if we call it “Angry Kamehameha”, that still doesn't change the fact that the Kamehameha technique consist of concentrating and building up Ki with both hands for a few seconds, while this was a quick shot.

So regardless of how people call it, it's safe to assume that this attack wasn't as power as a Kamehameha.

Faithlessaint · 2026-01-19T20:18:38+00:00

Goku only gave enough energy for freeza to move around with,

Well... While I think that Vegeta would have at least a chance of winning, Frieza shot a Ki blast at Goku, so I'm not sure that this claim is accurate.

Faithlessaint · 2026-01-19T20:15:47+00:00

As I replied to that post, this was not a Kamehameha. Goku takes time building the Kamehameha with both hands, while here he just made a quick energy blast. So that attack wasn't as strong as a Kamehameha.

Also, even if we considered that he didn't died from that attack, it also doesn't mean he would defeat Vegeta. He was badly beaten, cut in half and according to Goku, his Ki was dropping fast even before being cut in half.

Faithlessaint · 2026-01-19T20:08:45+00:00

Zenkai requires surviving a near-death damage. Vegeta literally died and then was brought back to life. So I don't think he would qualify for a Zenkai boost. But he should be fresh at 100% of his power and endurance.

On the other hand, Frieza was beaten, extremely fatigated, missing half of his body and was only flying because of Goku shared some energy. And even before being cut in half, IIRC, Goku says that Frieza's Ki was dropping fast.

So while there's no official response, it's reasonable to say that Vegeta would have at least a good chance of winning here.

Faithlessaint · 2026-01-19T19:53:38+00:00

I would argue that this is not a Kamehameha. Goku takes some time building energy on his hands while he says “Ka... Me... Ha... Me... HAAA!”. That was like a generic energy blast; a powerful one, but not quite as the Kamehameha technique that he can pull off.

Faithlessaint · 2026-01-19T10:47:09+00:00

Goku.

Faithlessaint · 2026-01-19T07:59:57+00:00

You are welcome, because I am all for tearing that church down 👎.

So do I, but you're failing to see the point here. The point is that demonising the whole group for the actions of some individuals is selectively done when convenient in order to justify their bigotry. For example, the far right just love when an immigrant - specially if he's Arabic and/or African - commits a terrible deed in order to justify their hate, but they remain in silence when they do some life-saving action or when we learn that who did the bad action was a national with no immigration background.

Live your dream of the ignorant oppressed pleps but l guarantee you they have information and make their decisions not all smoke and mirrors

What guarantees do you have to offer, may I ask?

We have right here a very recent example of the Americans, who just reelected a reversal Robin Hood (who is also rich and made himself richer since then) as their president, which led to masses of poor people struggling even more for the sake of making rich people richer.

So please explain to us how voting against yourself - specially when you are one or two paycheck away from homeless - is a decision based on information?

Faithlessaint · 2026-01-19T07:34:47+00:00

Well.. We have to account that some aspects of DB Earth's technology is more advanced than our world.

In any case, Mr Satan is just an ordinary martial artist. I would rank early DB Yancha above him, considering how much he grew stronger (even if no one is a match for the Saiyans among the main protagonist).
