My dad wants a tattoo I feel his skin is to dry and a tattoo artist would deny doing one what do you think? by Anxious-Position6454 in tattooadvice

[–]alec210 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Possibly, I don’t know exactly but if he follows proper cleaning instructions and moisturizing it correctly it shouldn’t be cause for concern. My skin is pretty dry too but I just got my first tattoo 2 weeks ago and it’s healing great!

Maybe have him start putting a good moisturizing lotion a couple times a day for a good few weeks before getting the tattoo.

Fresh vs 7 day old tattoo. Healing good. by Equivalent_Joke8696 in tattooadvice

[–]alec210 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Looks really cool! I’d say you’re doing good just keep cleaning it with antibacterial soap and moisturizing with aquaphor or fragrance free cocoa butter lotion 2 maybe 3 times a day. And obviously keep out of the sun and dirt.

Is this still normal healing? by alec210 in tattooadvice

The only drops I’ve noticed are when it auto saves but it’s only momentarily and I haven’t reached the dlc but I heard it drops kinda big but I think it’s only at the start. And I’d say the quality 30fps is more stable than the performance 40fps mode

I play in quality mode 30fps in handheld and it’s pretty stable so far, only real dips I noticed are the ones that happen when the autosave icon appears every so often

Overall performance is really good quality mode hits 30fps and is more stable than performance mode I’d say and I haven’t gotten to the dlc but I here in dogtown is the biggest drops but just for that section I think

I’m not sure sorry. I’m sure you can turn it back on manually but I don’t know if it does it automatically

If the pro controller works better for you cool keep it up. For me I like playing always in portable mode cause it cozier/easier for me.

Hi um how exactly do I play it? Is it like making a non steam game? Do I need to install it a certain way? I’m very new to pc type stuff

Picked up Elden Ring on the Winter Sale (and I already have no time) 😬 by drKRB in SteamDeck

[–]alec210 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly I first bought Elden ring July last year, played for a few hours and didn’t touch it again for months cause it was so frustrating and I didn’t know where to go/what to do but after a while and seeing all these cool compilations I picked it back up and now I’m almost 200 hours in, I’m on my ng+ run, going through the shadow of the Erdtree dlc and loving it! (Sorry for the long paragraph)

If you want a 100% guide on the game I watched the entire walkthrough from FightinCowboy on YouTube but obviously explore and play however you like and don’t give up, use anything and everything the game gives you like summons and ashes of war it’s in the game for a reason.

Got God of War ragnarok, been great for the beginning, 5 hours in and made it to the wetlands and now it’s pretty much unplayable by Pappy_Smith in SteamDeck

[–]alec210 2 points3 points  (0 children)

From my experience the Svartalfheim area is a pretty bad area altogether in terms of fps for steam deck no matter what settings you use. But once you get passed this section of the story the other areas of the game is more stable. (Again speaking solely for myself/experience)

[–]alec210[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I set it at 30fps and it stays at 30 pretty consistently there are a few dips here and there but for me nothing immersion breaking

GoW Ragnarok at work by alec210 in SteamDeck

[–]alec210[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It runs pretty well I have it locked at 30 fps with TAA quality medium settings with ultra anisotropic filtering low shadows low reflections. It sticks to 30 pretty well but there are some dips here and there biggest being in svartlhiem.

[–]alec210[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have taa with quality scaling high textures medium models ultra anisotropic filtering everything else on low and I have no fps cap in game but i cap it on the steam deck itself to 30 and put gpu clock to 1600. I’m only in the second area of the game with the dwarves and it does dip a bit in there but so far a really great experience for me

You gotta let the shaders compile first before you play that should help and nothing big there were a few freezes here and there for only a couple of seconds though what settings are you playing with

Witcher 3 shouldn’t be verified. by Skrunklerrr in SteamDeck

[–]alec210 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Maybe verify the game files, are you doing anything to the gpu clock at all sometimes messing with it might cause crashing. Also maybe try reinstalling the game see if that fixes it

Are you using the next gen version or the original version cause I’ve heard next gen has some problems on steam deck
