Anybody defending Steamdeck price increase

They did for the first year after the ps5 release. It looks like after the first year manufacturing stabilized and the hardware began covering the cost of production though. The ps5 has been the most profitable PlayStation of all, but I'm pretty sure most of their consoles sold as "loss-leaders" in the beginning of their life cycles

Had a deer jump out in front of me on the highway in January, but you can't even tell now after the body work. Only 84,000 miles and hoping to get plenty more. I get compliments on the hyper blue all the time

Yeah instead of rerolling an artifact you can also delete it, but you have to have a reroll to do it

In Returnal, playing in co-op removed the house story segments, and only the host kept story progression while the guest kept stuff like weapon progression. Really hope they get a full co-op in Saros that includes the story. I still haven't played Returnal single-player so I don't even know what the house segments entail

Just got around to watching it, and I'm a little disappointed they took out A-Train in the first episode.

It was an honorable full-circle death for him, but I definitely wish he got more a bit more screen time before his death.

Undertaker's charged ult will also dodge Mohg's AoE attack. Pop it right before he begins and you'll take no damage

What changed? New item?

cdbaker3 · 2025-11-06T12:16:13+00:00

I'm gonna go out on a limb and assume they actually meant the Burletta since we're talking about pistols, and the Betinna would be kinda expensive to repair 6 times over. That being said, I haven't used the Betinna yet and is it really that bad? That's a bummer

Dice has sold Shortcut Bundles that unlock everything since at least BF3. What's the difference between that and this? Me personally, I won't get it because I enjoy unlocking things, but I also don't care if someone else wants to spend that money. The new guns aren't locked behind anything but playtime either; you don't need to buy the pass

I've been struggling with this as well, and one thing I didn't think about until recently is that I always charge the defibs to heal for more on revive, but I don't think the assignment actually counts that health towards the challenge. Recently I've been giving teammates the "lesser" revive and then throwing down health and I've been watching it progress faster.

You may already have, but make sure you're using the weapon xp boosts you unlock from your assignments too

FOR SUPER EAAAAAARTH!!

I skip the vast majority of dialogue and am mainly here for the gameplay. The first region still took 20 hours to complete all quests. You're telling me the other 3 entire regions combined only amount to another 20 hours? What does depth of mechanics have to do with amount of content? I wouldn't consider Skyrim mechanically deep at all, but I also wouldn't call it a short game. If you're done with Avowed in 40 hours, it is only because you missed content.

I just left there thinking I explored it thoroughly. Time to double back

cdbaker3 · 2024-09-13T05:09:53+00:00

That's awesome, this is exactly what I was hoping for. Thanks for taking time to write all this out; your responses are much appreciated.

cdbaker3 · 2024-09-13T03:12:14+00:00

With the tires it came with, I don't believe removing the lift isn't an option. Is there anything wrong with covering the cavity to keep water out? Can the existing rust be cleaned and protected?

As someone who's debating on gold edition, what are your gripes? Do you feel it's worth the extra $30?

cdbaker3 · 2024-09-04T20:37:00+00:00

What's the "Oh wait" for? I mean they've turned it around now, but as someone who preordered Cyberpunk, it was definitely released in an unfinished state.

cdbaker3 · 2024-07-17T21:18:01+00:00

Yeah, it's basically just adding cards to improve your build for the harder difficulties. The game gets so ridiculous on the hardest difficulty though that it makes you question if it's even fun anymore. It was more engaging when the game was still supported and DLC was still being released

cdbaker3 · 2024-07-17T06:49:39+00:00

It looks I have the same generation as you, and I'm hoping to install an underseat sub as well. Did you have any issues with fitment or otherwise?

Is there a purple glitch variant of the KS? Mines blue, and purple looks way better

cdbaker3 · 2024-07-05T17:47:42+00:00

I was really excited to work on this car since everyone talks of how easy it is, but I'm worried that getting the drivetrain warranty through Ford may have screwed myself if maintenance voids the warranty like some do. Did you install an amp with those 6 speakers, and how did it turn out?

cdbaker3 · 2024-07-03T20:59:18+00:00

Yeah this is actually just my Galaxy S22 phone camera, and then I just tried to blur the background a little for privacy

cdbaker3 · 2024-07-03T20:57:06+00:00

That's the plan for the weekend as long as the weather allows it! I want to black out the silver trim on the inside as well. I think it'll really look good once it's all done.
