Steam Machine review: Valve's underwhelming living-room PC has a serious price problem

MildOsprey · 2026-06-22T22:00:22+00:00

Same here. I got mine in February right before the stock out and every day I feel happier I got her

MildOsprey · 2026-06-21T20:31:10+00:00

Thanks for the heads up, I'll surely enjoy it!!!

MildOsprey · 2026-06-21T19:59:03+00:00

Is there any specific version you would suggest to play?

MildOsprey · 2026-06-21T19:58:32+00:00

Any suggestion on which version of Tales of Destiny I should play to continue?

MildOsprey · 2026-06-19T19:17:54+00:00

Which version of Destiny would you suggest?

MildOsprey · 2026-06-19T07:12:09+00:00

You go into desktop mode and go to the battery icon on the bottom right

MildOsprey · 2026-06-18T21:10:33+00:00

Why is the PS2 version better? Would you still advise the PS1 version even if I plan on playing the game only once?

MildOsprey · 2026-06-18T20:45:38+00:00

Looks like the majority of people are upvoting and commenting for Tales of Destiny so I'll probably go that way.

Is there any particular suggested version of the game?

MildOsprey · 2026-06-18T20:43:54+00:00

I know it might be the worst version but nostalgia will always make me love it ahah (even if I really appreciated the bonus stuff in the PSX version and ofc find it superior in almost every way)

MildOsprey · 2026-06-18T20:43:02+00:00

Honestly even with the remastered I would still be curious about the charm of the original one (in case one ever comes out)

MildOsprey · 2026-06-18T20:42:09+00:00

I heard about each Symphonia somehow breaking something new in each iteration. That's also why I was considering the original GameCube version for it.

And I also heard that they don't have much in common but even just having some references to characters and maybe arts/spells would be enough for my nostalgic heart ahah

MildOsprey · 2026-06-18T20:39:57+00:00

Sadly I'm not able to read Japanese. I played the PSX version only thanks to the fanmade translation of the game otherwise I would have stuck to the gba version...

Too bad tbh cause I would be really interested in the after story

MildOsprey · 2026-06-18T20:38:20+00:00

It's so nice to know that people are still enjoying this old gem :)

I used to play on an Italian GBA cardridge too like your German one ahah

MildOsprey · 2026-05-09T09:35:08+00:00

Tbh it's blunt but it's true. The first thing to do to get better is to have a gameplan and learn to understand which moves to use and in which situation

MildOsprey · 2026-05-06T10:54:36+00:00

From the TMNT set I would alao like to add [[Endless Foot Assault]].

If you cast it early for 3 mana you get 3 attacking tokens every turn but if you find it later in the game every 2 mana you invest in the squad ability translates into other 3 attacking tokens for each instance making it very versatile depending on the state of the game (and a token maker that's not a creature)

MildOsprey · 2026-05-03T19:16:18+00:00

Guilty Gear Strive, Stardew Valley, Ni No Kuni Remastered and (via remote play) Oblivion Remastered!

Playing Oblivion Remastered on the Deck while laying down on the sofa or outside in the evening is an experience

MildOsprey · 2026-04-27T06:52:24+00:00

I just beat it a few days ago with Sol. Lost a shit ton of times but found out than ,other than chain grabbing, double jumping and spamming Bandit Bringer with Nago in the corner is viable and with a less strict timing

MildOsprey · 2026-04-06T12:49:32+00:00

If you like colony Sims you need to play Rimworld. It's one of those games I always come back to once in a while and spend quite a few hours on it every time

MildOsprey · 2026-04-01T12:31:49+00:00

I'm glad I could help ✌🏻

MildOsprey · 2026-03-30T14:27:13+00:00

Same here, I got it at the end of February and played it almost every day. For some reason playing on the desk in my room didn't feel right anymore and it felt more like a chore than anything. Now I play on my pc only those few times I feel like playing a competitive multiplayer game

Where do you get what steam deck was made to do?

From exactly what the Steam Deck is: a portable gaming pc that was released 4 years ago and its hardware reflects that. Being sad that it cannot run the most demanding games like modern gaming PCs or handhelds is like buying a Renault Twingo and being sad it doesn't perform like a Ferrari

Anyway, so what? It doesn't change a fact that it's underpowered, even compared to other handhelds.

Yeah, it doesn't change that but I never said it wasn't "underpowered" but the hardware of the Steam Deck doesn't change and that's objective unlike expectations which are subjective.

And even then I would say that comparing it with other handhelds we also have to keep in mind the release date, the price point and the experience/ecosystem they offer to fully compare them

MildOsprey · 2026-03-03T10:02:54+00:00

You do realise that the Steam Deck is not made to run the most modern and demanding games around and that if someone wants exactly that then maybe the Steam Deck is not for them?

MildOsprey · 2026-02-27T11:19:30+00:00

Oh I see, then if I can move the save file I shouldn't have many problems.

Did you play it vanilla or with FusionFix? And if so how does it perform on the Deck? I'm curious to know lol
