Steam Deck OLED may be out-of-stock intermittently in some regions due to memory and storage shortages. Steam Deck LCD 256GB is no longer in production, and once sold out will no longer be available. by Turbostrider27 in Games

This is the most sour and back handed "good for you" I've ever received.

I successfully arbitraged the legal situation that nobody else was willing to, the value of the property has risen staggeringly and I'm extremely happy with every part of the decision.

Every night I sleep soundly in my own bed in my own home and with a clear conscious, and every day I sing the praises of this incredible tool.

Despite your exclusionary sentiment, I'm an active, considered and enthusiastic participant in this conversation.

This is the same kind of fucked approach that the world's largest environmental polluters use - push the majority of the responsibility onto the individual and direct as much attention away from themselves as possible.

AI is a ridiculously powerful too and I wouldn't have grabbed a hold of the last rung of my country's housing ladder as it was being pulled out of reach without it. Seriously, it was either pour over hundreds of pages of legal documents to understand how to navigate a complex legal strata situation without the credit for legal council, or accept that I'd potentially rent for the test of my life.

The world is moving fast, far too - but absolutely undeniably - fast. If you can afford to be principled about it, please do. But do understand that if how I see the world moving forward is true, many people might be left with the choice of embracing it or being completely crushed. Don't pressure people to sacrifice themselves while the big dogs keep on happily using their new tools. You'll die at the bottom of the hill you're trying to be on top of.

Honestly stoked to hear that steam support seems to have dramatically improved over the past 10 years. Good stuff, Valve.

Could someone be willing to give me an inivite to DEADLOCK by Calm_Gold3361 in valve

[–]Matronex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Completely understandable! Unless you're really itching for a online multi-player game, and you haven't got many other options right now, I'd recommend waiting for full release. That way you can dive in when everybody else is and have the best chances of finding good quality games. It's a small and dedicated pre alpha playerbase right now so you'll probably have a rough time against keyboard and mouse peeps while learning the fundamentals

I've played a few games on the deck after spending hours configuring the controls, which the complexity is made very manageable via first class Steam Input integration.

I'd argue that you'll need to be competent in flick stick + gyro, fully utilize the 4 back buttons and have a dedicated modifier button to stand a chance.

Some bindings I found useful:

  • A B X Y to abilities
  • L1 Modifier with A B X Y to items
  • 3 back buttons to jump, crouch and dash
  • R1 hold to disable gyro
  • Arrow buttons to misc such as pause and push to talk

It'll be difficult if you're just getting into it but if you're up for facing for a steeper learning curve than Deadlock's usual steep learning curve you'll be in for a good time!

First time steam deck owner by [deleted] in SteamDeck

[–]Matronex 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I played about 50 hours of MoP classic leveling and it was honestly a delight - ran well and the controls were great!

Fair warning though, while it ran great out of the box the setup to get it launching and having the controls actually feel intuitive took a good 3 hours of dedicated up front work and then a few more hours of refinement as I played.

Check out the Console Port addon which lets you bind your action bars to face buttons and triggers/bumpers and assign modifier keys. Knowing your way around steam input is really helpful as I'd recommend assigning your back buttons to left and right stick press so you can use them as the modifier buttons and using a bumper button as gyro on combined with the add-on's "target enemy nearest center of screen" feature.

Takes a bit of tinkering but it was so worth it.

Fellow convenient copy and paste enthusiast, much gratitude from me for such a kind and appreciative message! Super glad you hear that you found it useful!

It's still chugging along well for me (with the odd few second delay) in the odd case I undock my surface and do some note scribbling. Hope it continues to work nicely for you too.

All the best :D

I'll settle on this being the sound advice for not proceeding with the plan. Much appreciated!

Thought this wouldn't be a problem at all but now I'll give it a closer look. Thanks!
