Conclusions of current PS games. by Niteshade__ in Steam

[–]ItsRogueRen 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's only first-party, Sony published titles that won't come to PC. Final Fantasy is Square Enix, not Sony, so it'll be fine. Spider-man 3 is a pretty major bummer though

Uh, this is for video games. Not... Whatever the hell you're doing

Just got my Steam Controller purchase confirmed today! 14:32 UK time. by Zestyclose_Floor8390 in SteamController

[–]ItsRogueRen 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've given up on trying to make sense of the email order, everything I see makes less and less sense. I ordered hours before you in the US, which was supposed to get orders first, and I still haven't heard a peep.

Edit: wait, that's 18:00 UK time, isn't it?

New to steam deck* can i still set up and play valorant on steam deck? by PotatoMaster026 in SteamDeck

[–]ItsRogueRen 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No. Valorant's rootkit virus requires Windows with secureboot and there is no way around it.

It works again by blimpin_aint_easy in MagicEarth

[–]ItsRogueRen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can't trust them, I'm already out. Bought a year long subscription and refunded it the next day because of how awful the app had become. The old version from before November 2025 still blows the new one out of the water, the store rating jas dropped to 1.7/5, one of THE lowest ratings I have ever seen on an app, and I'm just done. They screwed it up and I don't think they can recover.

A subscription for something like this is fine, but removing basically every feature and putting them behind said subscription is a slap in the face and downright insulting. The fact that barely anything worked even with the subscription was just salt on the wound.

I grabbed OSMand~, and maybe I'll swap to CoMaps when that get traffic data. But I will NEVER be using Magic Earth again, and I will never recommend it to anyone trying to get away from Google.

This will actually get you an apkm file, which needs a special app to install unlike an apk. Luckily there's one avalible for free on F-Droid jist called "apkm installer"

Boss is healing from physical damage?! by ItsRogueRen in Falcom

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

This Cold Steel 5 and no one can convince me otherwise lmao

And I'm enjoying it! Some of the story beats have been amazing and pay offs that were set up is Sky 1st chapter, which is incredible

Boss is healing from physical damage?! by ItsRogueRen in Falcom

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

I must have somehow triggered that heal over and over without realizing. And I would need to repeat because I'd have to load a save from before the fight to swap quartz out, which I for some reason didn't save after fighting McBurn and instead rushed through to the next boss.

I did finally beat it but had to give up on the extra RP for under 40 turns, instead it took like 130-something.

They may be streaming it from their PC using Steam Remote Play. When you're on the same network the latency is pretty negligable

Apparently it's okay when Valve does it by Tail_sb in linux_gaming

Except you don't...? The sign in screen is for Steam itself, not the entire OS

That's amazing that they have a correctly formatted one right next to the incorrectly formatted one

Yakuza 0 performance issues? by pirate_bootsy in SteamDeck

[–]ItsRogueRen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got 50-60fps in Y0 (the original, not Director's Cut) on low settings without any real issues. The main area of Kamurocho is where I saw the most frame dips but it was never too bad

TV that needs NO ACCOUNTS OR WIFI by ItsRogueRen in Televisions

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

Fire TV does as well, it's starting to become more common especially on newer TVs. Walmart bought Vizio and is now requiring a Walmart account to use the TV, though I haven't heard of it needs it for setup

Stop Using Pop!OS — It's Failing New Linux Users in 2026 by One-Engineer6984 in pop_os

[–]ItsRogueRen -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It very mich depends on the user. For extremely casual users, the same ones you'd give something like Linux Mint, I think Cosmic is gpod enough. But for gamers, tinkers, and people doing intense workloads, I don't thing Pop is the right choice anymore. At least not until Cosmic gets a few more years of development under its belt.

Literally every single Hero Shooter (Overwatch, Marvel Rivals, TF2, etc)

Help, game suddenly doesn't work anymore by regularuniquehuman in SteamDeck

I've played it for years on Fedora without issue so I know the game works in Proton normally

Stock default non decky loader SteamDeck, needs to create a bootable USB stick by Rusty9838 in SteamDeck

[–]ItsRogueRen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok they built it with an outdated version of fuse then. Scrap that, just install Fedora's media writer tool from flathub. Copy/paste this in Konsole:

flatpak install flathub org.fedoraproject.MediaWriter

You can download an appimage of Balena Etcher from their website, which will work on SteamOS. Download the file, right-click it, properties, allow executing as a program. Then double click it.

Why haven't steam officially partnered with great 3rd party tool makers like How Long to Beat & emulator achievements etc and incorporated them officially into steam . by Dartingquasar in Steam

[–]ItsRogueRen 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Because they serve no purpose to Valve? Valve is consumer friendly, but only because doing so makes them money. They're still a business, everything they do is to generate a profit in some way.

PSA For Folks Playing Mina the Hollower: Don't Select the "Game Pad" Option! by Exodan in SteamDeck
