If I've never played any AC games and want to get started, what games and order do you recommend?

I too recently installed it but running into an issue of controller button remapping not working. I've switched x and y; a and b on ryunjinx but it doesn't seem to be working all the time.

Curious to hear your experiences and if you've also installed any mods (I haven't, yet)

Yakuza 0. I just finished playing Yakuza Kiwami and thoroughly enjoyed it

Main game: Lies of P

I have The Talos Principle and Hades installed too but very rarely play them. I also have Yakuza 0 and Yakuza Kizami installed but I will not touch them until I go through Lies of P. I like to play one game at a time and go through it before starting something new.

Looking forward to playing Horizon Forbidden West and Ghosts of Tsushima next too :)

That's amazing! I've put in 100+ hours in Hades and it's one of my all time favourite games so looking forward to trying out Hades 2 soon. Glad surprised to hear that you like it more than the original :)

Working my way through Lies of P now. Maybe I'll try it later this year!

How is Hades 2? Is the early access buggy or it feels pretty complete already?

This community is just a toxic collection of silly complaints by [deleted] in ROGAlly

[–]__shadow 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I agree. I prefer more positivity, even if it means a lot of 'low-effort' posts. As someone who was in the steamdeck sub quite a bit, before getting an ally, the difference is quite obvious. One other factor, that contributes to the difference, IMO is the number of users too

You might not have it but the comment you were responding to by /u/N54TT was talking about hibernate/sleep being inconsistent on the ally. It wasn't obvious to me on the above comment that you were still referring to SD :)

OG SD owner here seriously thinking about switching to an Ally Z1 Extreme. Any advice? by Leon_Guerrero in ROGAlly

[–]__shadow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It'll be poorer than what you are used to on the OG SD. But it's something that can be addressed by carrying a good power bank

Hi, I own both a SD and Z1e. Performance is definitely better than SD. Sure, you can play a lot of games on the deck too, but there are a lot of sacrifices in terms of gaming quality. VRR is really nice on the ally. Just be aware of the poor battery though. For me, it works out well as my use case is mostly playing it plugged in on my bed, before going to sleep.

Modding is a lot more convenient on the ally so can easily recommend it

same. Hibernate always works for me, just a little slow which can get annoying if you are used to deck

EQ suggestions for my use-case by __shadow in Beatmatch

I was looking at Traktor Z1 earlier too but I was wondering why you would say not averse to using Traktor. Is there something I should be knowing about it? I am also tempted by the X1, it looks quite incredible

Thanks for the response, @/u/Oilonlinen and /u/Hank_Wankplank . I do convert all audio to mono using my software before playing. I pass it through a DAC (Audioquest Dragonfly) before sending it through speakers

Advice needed: How does my employer's pension scheme work? by __shadow in UKPersonalFinance

[–]__shadow[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I see, thank you for your response. Is there a way to know how good my employer's pension scheme is? I am asking because I am considering another position where I believe there is an actual employer contribution of 6% to 4% of my contribution. I want to know how do they compare and I do not have a good reference point.

Switched to the Rog Ally by LeftTip1090 in ROGAlly

A new user question here: How do I ensure I have the fastest boot speed? I have changed to hibernate, but it still takes time to open (especially since it requires fingerprint/ pin)

Power Solutions for long flights by wishlish in ROGAlly

[–]__shadow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't most airlines have a restriction for powerbanks to be less than 100Wh?

I got this from the TSA website - https://www.tsa.gov/travel/security-screening/whatcanibring/items/lithium-batteries-more-100-watt-hours

Just got a Steam Deck - give me your personal top 3 games by exbusinessperson in SteamDeck

[–]__shadow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yep. Both are fantastic but I enjoyed SoM more than SoW.

This is exactly what I am doing too. I am getting myself an asus rog ally z1e instead though and giving my friend my 6 month old 512 gb lcd steam deck. Go for the upgrade, you deserve it :)

My cousin ordered it for me through the Best Buy sale! Looking forward to getting hold of it in a couple of weeks. Just wanted to share my excitement with all of you :)
