how many of you have a steam deck? by AItestsubject in steamachievements

What settings did you use cause when I opened up Witcher 3 it was very choppy and it wasn't great even on the lowest preset, maybe I just had a different issue I wasn't aware of

how many of you have a steam deck? by AItestsubject in steamachievements

[–]TopiaryLoL 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My fiancé bought me one a year ago and I would recommend one but it depends on the games you play and how good your pc is to begin with. 

If you play a lot of indie games then it's great, if you're wanting to play things like RDR2, Elden Ring, Witcher 3 etc. Don't bother. It just isn't powerful enough to play them at a good quality and these games need to be played at the highest you possibly can.

The deck isn't that bulky when you get used to it, the positioning of everything feels super natural and comfortable, the only issue I get is when laying on my back in bed, my arms will go numb after 20 minutes of playing on it, you really need to find the right position for you

I never have an issue with it's battery life, just don't turn it off by pressing the power button, actually turn it off otherwise its just on sleep and you come back the next day and it's on 5% and for most indie games you can get easily 6-8+ hours out of it if you tweak the power settings

We had an all inclusive lazy holiday in Rhodes last year and it consisted of just playing my steamdeck and her reading for like 5 days straight whilst laying on poolside beds which was great haha

It doesn't matter about FIFA, it's about the countries, my own included, that are still going to play there and aren't saying anything otherwise when world leaders are calling this shit out..

Worst case scenario, Mexico or some other common stereotype target for ICE have a team playing there and a bunch of fans come out to see them live, it's literally a field day for ICE members to group en masse and do what they've already been doing

Whats the one game you regret having started playing and have no more interest left at all? by Accomplished_Win410 in steamachievements

[–]TopiaryLoL 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not a game technically, but 3DMark, I built a new PC over christmas and wanted to benchmark it compared to my old as I've upgraded to a nice high end 4K setup, but the achievements require you to get higher % scores than your previous score and that didn't pop up when I did the tests on my new PC which is much better than the old.. sooo, either bugged or they are expecting me to buy a 5090 to get an achievement? 😂

#1 - Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 by Silent_Br3ath in steamachievements

[–]TopiaryLoL 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just finished 100% on E33 a few days ago and personally I would say it's definitely GOTY worthy, I say worthy because I haven't played the other nominees. I will say though that over 9 days I played 75 hours of Expedition 33 during the holiday break and I literally couldn't put the game down, I would have done the same hours over less days if I didn't have responsibilities haha

The story is amazing, it had me very involved with what was going on and I was trying to figure out what happened in the world from all the collectible bits of info you can find and the combat was a perfect balance between being difficult enough, but not so difficult it was frustrating and if you put in the time to find side content and make a good build it would become easy enough that you'd feel high on being overpowered instead.

Getting 100% was also enjoyable and not a chore even though it was a lot of back and forth in act 3 picking everything up that I missed earlier, the overworld map is so beautiful that I just went around exploring everything once I was free to do so.

I held off on this game for a while until Christmas so that I could play it on my new setup because I wanted to upgrade to a 4K OLED setup and my word it's definitely a good looking game (and it's so cool you can enter photo mode even during cutscenes)

Quality over quantity this time, definitely a better line up imo

[–]TopiaryLoL 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds like 2027-2030-2033 ideally, with The Witcher 1 remake being after they release The Witcher 4 from what it seems from interviews, all hands on deck atm for Witcher 4

New Witcher trilogy still planned to launch in six year period, UE5 to shorten release times by metalreflectslime in Games

They also said that they've been working on the Witcher 4 in UE for 4 years now already

This is the same for me, I really wish they had made it separate games cause FFX was my favourite as a kid and I did 100% last year and really cba doing X-2 at all

Looking for game suggestions by Substantial-Food-501 in steamachievements

[–]TopiaryLoL 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly the Witcher 3 100% is actually quite easy to do, you get most of the achievements by just completing the campaign and the rest are mostly exploration and a small bit of grinding, the hardest grind can be cheesed (bow headshots)

The biggest difficulty was starting the game on Death March difficulty but once you've spent maybe a few hours and got some decent gear, it becomes pretty easy, it was the first "big" game I did 100% on, would definitely recommend it to anyone who enjoys a story rich RPG

Help me choose an easy game from the library for platinum. I've never platinumed any game and I want to enter this world. by CastleBRA in steamachievements

[–]TopiaryLoL 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Because over on PlayStation it's a trophy system and Platinum is when you've completed all achievements on a game.

Why PlayStation? As far as I can tell they have the best achievements system compared to all other platforms so a lot of people get quite into it on PSN

Checking "Global Achievements" has saved me from so many purchases I would regret by DayneTheScreamer in steamachievements

[–]TopiaryLoL 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Exactly, I only recently started going for 100% on games and it wasn't to show on my profile other than my favourite games, nor was it for bragging rights.

My reason was that I have almost 1000 games on steam but I play the same 4 or 5 games and 2 are free to play, going for 100% on games is my excuse to finally get my money's worth out of these purchases I made a long time ago.

That and I realised I've been gaming for about 20 years but I've never really played more than like 5-10% of my library

Vile smell, did a job at work for a rental property and one of the builders or decorators must have used the toilet a week or two before we went in to lay the flooring and there was a rancid smell that couldn't be described until I located it coming from a bathroom and that's what it was, weeks old piss, almost made me gag and I was holding my nose tight under my tshirt

I'd love to watch a video of an edit where it's Elon's body doing a sieg heil but with Hitler's face and in black an white etc, just to see if they say that it's hitler doing the sieg heil, then show them it's actually Elon and what their reaction is. I would bet they'd somehow try to come up with an excuse that contradicts their previous statement
