Me too. I went from PS4 to deck with no other gaming PC before. Considered PS5 but the enormous back catalogue of Steam games swayed me and I have no regrets.

I bought 6 and have every intention of playing them at some point in the future… whenever that may be 🤣

I also finished Outer Wilds during the sale and went and bought the DLC while it was on offer. Thoroughly recommend that game.

Especially bad in this case as half the game was based on chat. It’s hard to argue a point when all you can do is choose “Blue is lying”.

Used to play among us quite a bit before it was taken over by kids and they had to put all the crappy chat constructor stuff in to stop teens swearing at eachother. Ruined the game.

Original Pokémon would be more difficult to navigate without fly. You’d have to navigate all of the caves again getting stopped every few steps by random encounters.

That’s a real shame for those that want to use it with Steam Deck where both could be natively supported. I was kind of hoping they had sorted that with a firmware update since the only posts I could find were from a year ago. Looks like it still has the same issue though.

Can you shine any light on the issues I was reading about with having to choose between gyro (Switch mode) or analogue triggers (Xbox/PC mode) because you can’t use both at the same time? Is that still a thing?

That looks like an interesting alternative. Looks like a switch Pro but with better sticks and analogue triggers. The multidevice thing looks good too. Have their been any issues or incompatablilties so far?

With the button layout, does the physical A button map to B on the Steam Deck by default or does it function as the Steam Deck A button? I think I’d prefer the former as I’ve always played with the Xbox layout and have that layout in muscle memory.

I remember getting that for Vita after watching the anime. I didn’t realise it was a VN and I spent ages thinking “when is the game going to start?” 😂

I recently beta tested a visual novel for someone on deck and battery life was amazing. It’s not a genre I’d usually play but thinking I might start playing more because of that. SD was predicting 9 hours and that’s without reducing any settings.

I try to play just one at a time so when I first got my deck it was my Fallout 3 machine for a month or so. Then Cyberpunk 2077. To avoid burnout I’ll occasionally take a break and play some smaller games but those ones were the ones that had me addicted enough to keep coming back after.

Currently on Outer Wilds so that’s my default at the moment.

Sonic 2 on Megadrive. Soundtrack is still one of the best from a game.
