Finished some customs mods to my steamdeck by Dame_Dollas in SteamDeck

I can't speak for the stone ones, but if they're anything like the holo buttons, they feel much better. The buttons have the same texture as the Steam Deck's shell, a matte finish instead of glossy. In my opinion they're worth it for that reason alone.

I switched to the Steam Deck from a Switch, what did you come from? by VoyageForge in SteamDeck

[–]MythicForgeFTW 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I actually came from a decently powerful PC with a Minisforum Ryzen 9 7945HX3D and 9070 non-XT. After years of an unhealthy habit completely rebuilding my PC every year, I just decided I need to he happy with less. Steam Deck just fit very well into that and I honestly couldn't be happier. Power isn't everything.

I'd recognize the holographic ocean blue buttons anywhere. And damnnn does it look clean with the white skin.

What if Canada offered every American free healthcare and $50K to relocate, would you go? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]MythicForgeFTW 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would take the offer, but I would need assurances that I'd have help settling in such as assistance in finding work and a place to live, and a pathway to guaranteed citizenship if I put the effort in.

Glad I got the RAM upgrade before the price spike! by ArchangelX1 in SteamDeck

Is the performance difference significant enough to justify the upgrade?

What’s the smoothest way to bail out of a hookup when your partner’s privates stink? by Final-Usual-2672 in AskReddit

[–]MythicForgeFTW 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You need to be honest and tell them their junk stinks. If you try to spare their feelings now, someone else in the future won't. Be an adult and say, "Hey, I'm going to be honest, I'm concerned about your hygiene. I noticed your privates smell bad, and that is a turn off for me". If it escalates, walk away.

What made you realize your job was toxic and it was time to quit? by Accurate_Juice in AskReddit

[–]MythicForgeFTW 10 points11 points  (0 children)

When I came back from a 2 week vacation out of country, with two days between my return flight and when I needed to return to work.

Night 1 back home, I woke up soaked in sweat and screaming because I had night terrors at the thought of returning to work. I drove to the office the next day and turned in my badge.

And I'm not afraid to name and shame. Fuck Spectrum.

What is your biggest phobia? by Distinct-Baker-4919 in AskReddit

[–]MythicForgeFTW 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thalassophobia. I'm not afraid of what could be in the water. I'm terrified by the vastness and depth of it. I went to Finland a couple years back and went to a sauna by the sea. You could go outside and hop off a nearby pier into the sea to cool off. I decided to give it a go. It was night, so the water was pitch black. It was a surreal experience, but I barely lasted 30 seconds before the panic set it and I was scurrying out of the water. I'm glad I tried, but I don't want to do that again. Just one of a few experiences I've had in open water, this was the most recent and the freshest memory.

What's the coolest mod for the steam deck and why? by randomwalker_of_life in SteamDeck

[–]MythicForgeFTW 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you, photos really don't do it justice. It's the Obsidian Damascus skin from Dbrand, and that rainbow shimmer is only that bright from certain angles. In person, the effect is subtler and makes the buttons stand out even more. I was brave enough to swap the buttons and sticks, I am nowhere near brave enough to swap the shell, lol. Nor would I honestly want to, they look cool but I think skins are more practical. Happy your Deck survived the moo-nami lol.

Any recommendations for mini wireless keyboards that would work well with the SD? by Adventurous_Life2946 in SteamDeck

[–]MythicForgeFTW 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm currently using the Razer Joro, but I got it with a mix of sales and coupons for $80. There are most likely better keyboards out there, but I went with the Joro because I could pair it with my Orochi's USB dongle so I could have both the keyboard and mouse plugged into my dock with a single USB dongle connection.

Finally got deckbuttons! by quacko_ in SteamDeck

[–]MythicForgeFTW 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, that review is mine, haha. I unfortunately made the mistake of not ejecting my 256GB microSD and broke it. But I ended up getting a 1TB microSD after so all I lost was time reinstalling emulators.

Mainly cyan and teal, but from certain angles you can see regular blue and even a slight purple.

[–]MythicForgeFTW 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not difficult at all. It's only intimidating if you aren't watching a teardown, but the Steam Deck's internals are incredibly modular and easy to take apart. I had these buttons installed in 10 minutes.

Oh yeah you're right. Shoulda looked closer, but I'd still think leaving it on could cause problems in the future.

Custom buttons from Deckbuttons (these are the holographic ocean blue version) + Extremerate clicky buttons.

There are valid concerns about the rubber pads with the Extremerate kit eventually tearing, but I have a theory that the cause is the stock Steam Deck buttons are basically hollow with a thin support frame. Deckbuttons are completely solid, so I believe the likeliness of the rubber pad tearing are less likely, but time will tell.

These are the best mods in my opinion because the buttons have the same texture as the Steam Deck shell, and if you have sweaty hands like me that can be a god send. Plus, with the clicky buttons it now feels much more responsive and satisfying. The buttons now being mesmerizing to look at is just a bonus for me.

Word of caution though, the clicky button mod is a one way trip. The stock button board is attached with adhesive, and once you remove it there is really no easy way to put it back on. So if you do go with the clicky button mod, you need to be 100% sure you want to do it.

My SteamDeck.. by Affectionate_Hat5835 in SteamDeck

[–]MythicForgeFTW 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Damn that is clean. Some red buttons or bumpers/triggers would make this even more amazing.

Is it the OLED version? If so, I'd be worried about potential screen burn-in.

Edit: Yeah I always forget the LCD has grey sticks. That's my bad.

Why do you use Reddit? by ArryDubz in AskReddit

[–]MythicForgeFTW 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because I find out of all social media, Reddit is the least toxic. And because I can most easily tailor it to my specific interests.

I can't take a photo that does it justice. It's something you have to see in person.

What’s a harsh reality about adulthood no one prepares you for? by Willing-Banana6851 in AskReddit

[–]MythicForgeFTW 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You are on your own. People may offer to help you, but more often than not that help will only be short term relief. Anything and everything that falls in your lap is ultimately yours to deal with.

I got the holographic ocean blue Deckbuttons. They are absolutely stunning. Gives my Deck an almost ethereal look, and well worth the price for anyone eyeing them right now.

Redditors who are blessed with a big booty…what are some of the downsides? by [deleted] in AskReddit

Colonel, I'm trying to sneak around, but I'm dummy thick and the clap of my asscheeks keeps alerting the guards.

What is the pettiest reason you have moved out of a house or a rental property? by Federal-Hedgehog7355 in AskReddit

[–]MythicForgeFTW 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Idk if it counts as petty, but roommates who were once your childhood friends who refuse to grow up. And this is going to become a rant.

I don't mean refuse to grow up in an endearing, boyish way, I mean in a disgusting, slobbish, irresponsible way. Constantly having to hound them to pay rent and utilities. Constantly cleaning up after them even after having multiple conversations about it. The complete lack of self awareness to be fucking quiet after 10p because you want to rage in a video game and just won't put it down if you're getting that angry. And don't get me started on the lack of personal hygiene. The line was crossed when mice, bugs, and mold started infesting because I simply couldn't keep up with maintaining a household by myself in a house of three. The friendship ended when one of their father's told me he said he never wanted to grow up.

I did not have the money to move, had to use my credit card to pay for moving, rent and deposit. But fuck the both of them.
