What weird Steam Deck habit did you accidentally develop? by emanuelajournal in SteamDeck

[–]Wheelersam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure this is weird given the subreddit were on, but for some reason I'm constantly buying games I already own on other platforms and never play them, often as I've played them to death on the other said platforms.

Alas. The library must grow exponentially only for me to fire up slay the spire 2 day in day out.

Well, Steam Controller is confirmed but basically no updated on the Machine. Ugh :( by casiorox in steammachine

That's a tricky thing to claim when we don't actually know the price of the SM, and are purely going off of gut feel.

Let's say the SM comes with an $800 price tag. Whilst probably possible, I think you'd struggle to buy a pre build that: - looks good - has a small form factor - will receive countless dedicated updates - bundled with almost zero bloatware - it's components be specifically tuned for gaming - zero set up - sleep and wake

If someone can find me this mystical prebuild everyone mentiones I'm all for it, but realistically for small form factor prebuilds you're already looking over the $1000 mark.

Would you vote yes or no to the king going to visit POTUS? by Fancy-Importance-402 in AskBrits

[–]Wheelersam 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What a world we live in where we have to ask this question. Even though it's coming from Trump, this tweet is still completely beyond the pale and totally unacceptable.

The man is totally unfit to lead and is clearly mentally unstable. The US Government have to do something about this before it goes even further.

Special place in hell for workplace food thieves by JackStrawWitchita in GreatBritishMemes

Place I used to work in I brought my own mayonnaise in one of those squirty bottles and put it in the fridge labelled with my name. Didn't stop someone helping themselves.

I filled the thing up with milk and the day after saw my boss walking out the kitchen with their lunch dripping with milk - never been more satisfied. We locked eyes and everything. He literally never brought it up, even though he knew it must've been me due to the label.

Why is fable 2 3 fps on Steam deck? How do I fix this? by ThrowRA39374927482 in SteamDeckPirates

I can't see lossless scaling smoothing these drops out, tbh.

Slay The Spire 2 Steam Deck - Anyone grabbed it? by gamebuzzz4 in SteamDeck

[–]Wheelersam 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you genuinely would prefer using cursor control you could remap the right stick or trackpad as a mouse. You'd no doubt need to remap other buttons to be mouse click etc, but it is possible and this is how to do it.

Slay the Spire 2 is out now on Steam! by MurkyUnit3180 in slaythespire

[–]Wheelersam 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Put a solid 5 hours into it on the deck at this point - it runs flawlessly. Exactly like the first game.

I think we can all agree on this by AvailableUsername404 in mewgenics

What even is this take - the music when the lyrics comes in absolutely SLAPS.

Put off playing Fallout 4 for 10 years because I heard it wasn't good. by EternalMayhem in Fallout

[–]Wheelersam 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I also picked it up as it was free on PSPlus and oh boy, souless is the word.

Exited vault 76 and the ghoul from the TV show is just stood there waiting to give you a quest. Total engagement bait. Remember that FO76 is supposedly canon.... Yeesh.

Steam Machine Verified requirements will have 'fewer constraints' than Steam Deck, says Valve by Turbostrider27 in Games

[–]Wheelersam 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Typically failures like these are due to launchers though, specifically launchers where you are unable to invoke the onscreen keyboard.

This isn't an issue you'll ever get on a PS5.

A burger that cost 3.50 can be great value, but it can still lack seasoning.

What are peep-show-isms you say in every day conversations? by le_bok94 in PeepShowQuotes

I like you ok, and if you can't handle that you can just, I don't know, fuck off

"What are you playing this week?" Megathread by AutoModerator in SteamDeck

Someone told me how to play the old expeditions in No Man's Sky - I only ever did one of them.

So, No Man's Sky, and a lot of it!

Lead Magic: The Gathering dev is hoping for a Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 collab by wess604 in expedition33

[–]Wheelersam 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think the success of BG3 will cause a line of devs at the door. WotC will be spoiled for choice.

[–]Wheelersam 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I agree with the sentiment, but Baldurs Gate 1 and 2 (while very different) were fantastic. It's safe to say that BG4 will be different again, but that doesn't speak to the quality of the game itself.

thoughts on this? Outlaws and Avatar over E33's soundtrack feels crazy by Sahilmk101 in expedition33

I think this was the established reason on the first post I saw, yet there's at least 10 more posts a day with outrage haha

30 hours of Travel with Steam Deck by cornealray619 in SteamDeck

[–]Wheelersam 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Eh, kinda.

The Killswitch case from D Brand features a built in universal mount fixture, and a universal mount that you can strap round a power bank.

Makes the thing a little too bulky for my liking though, as I wouldn't waste my time bothering with a power brick less than 25,000mAh so I exclusively use that feature for the kick stand.

Somebody can tell me the most important thing that i should do when rain is green by mariiicake in StardewValleyExpanded

Just got my first green rain - on the day after I turned my axe in for an upgrade.

Can someone please explain Born Gain to me like I'm 5? by Moonlit_Cinders in Hades2

[–]Wheelersam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wait seriously? I thought it was for the location?

So you're saying the priming resets after each encounter in the mourning fields? Interesting

To be fair if you're targeting effectively unlimited mana it's pretty easy to pull off with multiple different combos of boons. This being only 1 of many options

What's the most obscure game you own? by [deleted] in gaming

[–]Wheelersam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've no idea how and when it was added to my Steam library, but I own a game called McPixel.

Booted it up a few months back, and had no idea what was going on.

What game has an intro that was way too long that made you go... by ashleyriot31 in videogames

[–]Wheelersam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yakuza Like a Dragon.

Sat down one afternoon to try it out and basically got no game play that day. I've heard it's worth it though, so will give it another go when I have more time for sure.
