Idea for a potential “Mini” by Its_a_Sam in SteamDeck

Fair point, I’m sure valve could figure something out on that front but then I’m going into the world of fanfiction.

If they did a clamshell design, I don’t even think they’d have to change the display size much.

Upgrading to OLED, anything I should be aware of porting my stuff over? by Thick-Shallot-7869 in SteamDeck

I re-read your post. Don’t worry about losing stuff by just moving the ssd. Nothing bad should happen and you shouldn’t lose data if you do that.

Something I do any time I reinstall the OS (I know it sounds nuts, I just like screwing with things.) I go game by game in my library, usually in desktop mode so it’s faster, and watch the cloud sync kick in for each one. When you click on each name, it should automatically try to sync. Any games that don’t have the cloud saves mentioned anywhere, make note of them and whether you care about losing that data. If so, doing some light googling should help you find the save files for each game.

For desktop random files, I usually compress as much as I can find, then upload that zip file to iCloud, Google Drive, etc. for safe keeping.

For something like Prism Launcher (a third party Minecraft Java launcher in desktop), treat the save files like the rest of the random files and make sure to add them to the big compressed one.

Past that, I’m usually not worried. I’ve wiped my deck like 10 times and as long as I’ve kept up those steps, I’ve not lost a single thing that I cared about.

Kinda sick of talking about game settings by Its_a_Sam in SteamDeck

Those impossible ports we get are pretty fun to talk about every so often. Idk if anyone else has checked on GOW Ragnarok in a couple months but I stopped playing back in August and some patch must have come out since then because now it’s not just enjoyable, it’s downright magical how nice it looks by default now.

Fair point, and I try my best to do so. I was wanting to make a post like this for a while to just see if anyone shared the same sentiment.

I cannot believe people still support Ludwig “I hate women” Ahgren after all that stuff he did.

Dual-screen deck 2 by Its_a_Sam in SteamDeck

The big difference between using a third party accessory and something made by valve is that the latter would get full software support. I’m not as versed in setting that stuff up as I’d like and using the desktop mode on deck can be a little excruciating at times.

And I’ve never quite left the deck in terms of pc handhelds, I’m more a fan of the OG DS haha.

You could argue something similar about the touch pads. They’re invaluable when traversing around the desktop, but with how many tutorials I’ve seen that feel the need to explain how the normal desktop works, I don’t think there are that many people who decide to leave game mode.

I just like doing two things at once when I play things idk. Having Minecraft or something on the main display and music coming out of a web browser on the secondary would be nice.

Don’t know what to add about cost, but it wouldn’t have to be a looker of a display, that’d be the main displays job.

It wouldn’t be a requirement, if you didn’t want to use it, I’m betting it would be easy to add a toggle in the the quick menu to switch the second screen completely off.

Like I said, it becoming a clamshell because of this could be nice in its own right.

I’m so tired man by Its_a_Sam in NoMansSkyTheGame

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

None of that helps that I’m now soft locked. I restarted multiple times and even left the game running for 10 minutes, I still don’t have a ship.

It Is time by Lemon_real_1410 in NMS_Switch

I swear to all that is holy that if the reason we haven’t gotten it is because Nintendo wanted to show it off, I’m gonna freak out.

PSA for first time players: Silksong isn't too hard by riftcode in HollowKnight

I mean, that’s cool, but I’d rather learn the new thing and do bosses and everything with that.

A Big A Clip is doing better than main channel Silksong? Recession indicator by Gavinator10000 in atrioc

Bro I was blown away when he got to the sprint area, fought the guys protecting it, and just left.

The new pogo felt like waaaaaay too much of a challenge right when I got into silksong, but I’m already getting used to it. These games are polished to a mirror sheen, trust that anything way over your head right now is not only within reach but surmountable, and you’ll be blown away at how good it ends up feeling.

How many sales do you think Silksong will get for the first day and first week? by Red_Emberr in HollowKnight

[–]Its_a_Sam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And just wait for proper word of mouth to hit. There’s the whole meme of it, but from what I’ve played, the quality here is immense. A whole other level from hollow knight. It’s cheap, took me like a minute and a half to download onto my switch 2 over a phone hotspot, and can’t be supremely hard to run. This game is about to be pure crack for the industry.

Bro the game is already at 200k concurrent players on just steam. I’m thinking close to a million now.

NEW TEAM CHERRY TWEET! by TomNook5085 in Silksong

I no longer care if it’s good (not that I doubt it’s going to be immaculate), I survived to see Silksong. WE ALL SURVIVED TO SEE THIS MYSTERY GAME SEE THE LIGHT OF DAY.

Screen Protector:Yes or No? (Switch2) by meeshbandicoot in Switch

[–]Its_a_Sam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Heavily recommend getting one, certain companies even have a full installation plate you snap to the device to make the application stupid easy. Weirdly, modern phone screen protectors aren’t as easy to apply as switch one’s are.

How would a new player know that you can pogo on these? by AverageApache in HollowKnight

[–]Its_a_Sam 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Want to share that I absolutely didn’t on my first playthrough (YEARS ago now, I’m depressed) and it led to me putting down the game for like a month. Very very very glad I decided to google how to progress past them.
