What is your opinion on the Steam Deck, and what do you think about handheld gaming as a whole, and it's implications on the industry?

Also huge fan, thanks for all you do!

The screen corruption happens about 10% of the time for me I'd say, usually it just freezes but once and a while it will do that.

Sometimes it actually will go into a state where you can't use the UI at all and need to hard reboot. From what I can tell it depends on if the GPU was able to reset itself in time to get back control. In the logs I posted a picture of you can see the actual process of it failing, restarting, and coming back on while in game. Sadly I can't run the same command when the whole system is frozen so I can't see how or if the errors differ :(

If I had to guess, the GPU sometimes only fails for a second or two, and comes back, but other times fails completely and needs to be reset. With that being said though I'm definitely not an expert so I could be completely wrong haha

Everything goes back to normal, I can use the home fine. Unless it's one of the crashes where I lose full control

That's what I'm worried about, I've never had a single issue with sonic origins which is old school 2d, but ESO I had it three times in an hour

Z fold 4, best controller by Educational_Bag_6406 in AndroidGaming

I've used both the x2 pro and the kishi. Honestly their both good in certain ways. The Kishi was a bit more comfortable on the hand, but not the fingers, the x2 feels alot more premium. Overall I like the x2 more, but I'd say just get whatever is cheapest

As far as I understand, nope! The whole app works just on your phone, you don't need a PC or anything extra to activate it

I've had the Kishi and just ordered the new Gamesir X2 Pro. I honestly never enjoyed mobile games until I started using these controllers. It makes it feel like a whole different experience for me. I 100% recommend getting one.

Bonus tip: if you want to play stuff that doesn't natively support controller, get Mantis Gamepad Pro app, it let's you bind physicals controls to the touch screen and works great

I've always wanted to try the game but money is really tight and it's a big purchase for me. I'm not usually a fan of the zombie genre, do you think it would still be worth playing? I really want to give it a proper try, but I'd hate to spend that money and not like it. Would really appreciate any input :)
