Played this on steam remote play together. Worked well.

I play about 50% of my playtime on my steam deck. I reduced my shooters because even though I like gyro aiming it still will never be as good as my keyboard and mouse.

I disagree with my mah and old man a lot. But, when I was having hard times as a kid, giving them headaches and heartaches, and when I struggled as an adult they were there to tell me they loved me, hug me, feed me regardless of what I believed. They have always loved me unconditionally.

If it ain’t illegal. I’ll host it for them, no questions asked. If I ever needed anything, those are two people I know will be there every time, without fail. It’s the least I can do to try and pay them back, even if I know I never could.

I recently have been trying to play through all of the final fantasy games in chronological order. (Mainline games). Playing the gba dawn of souls currently. Playing through ff1

NV is great on the deck! I started up a fresh file a year ago on the deck as a psycho addicted knife wielding charismatic serial killer. Probably my favorite fallout.

I bought it on sale for like 5 or 10 bucks. Play it on my deck. After they added some npc quest lines, and if you don’t mind being pay locked out of some customizations, it is an ok game.

I love the fallout universe and getting to experience some lore from so close to the bombs falling. But it is my least favorite out of all of the games. I even enjoy 4 better than it.

Host is Proxmox, with Ubuntu LTS VMs.

Over the last 6 months I have played my steamdeck more than my desktop. As a dad of young children, my weekday gaming in done on my deck after my kids go to bed. Then on the weekends, I game on my desktop in the basement with my buddies from college.

In the last month I have spent more time working on learning some new skills and reading books instead of gaming during the weekdays. This has taken the place of my normal deck gaming time. I will probably go back to adding in some gaming in a few months. That will all be on my deck.

I am pretty sure it is a nostalgia thing for me. It smells like electronics from my childhood, moreso than other newer electronics I have. When I smell the vent it brings me back to my childhood and all of my friends and siblings gathered around a console in a small room with no AC in the middle of summer. A simpler time when I wasn’t a dad, didn’t have a mortgage, a job, taxes and bills to pay etc. I was just a kid sitting on the floor shirtless in shorts surrounded by my friends trying to finish games.

I currently own a steam deck. I got it in the first batch of deliveries. As far as a tech product goes, I have never consistently used a tech product for this long outside of my desktop. I almost always find myself migrating back to my desktop for everything, except with the steam deck. I actually find myself doing things on my deck instead of my desktop.

When version 2 comes out (or if I can get a sweet deal on the OLED down the road) I will for sure be upgrading without hesitation.

Is that a perfect 5/7?

I absolutely loved Outer Wilds. The game throws you in and the rest is up to you, go where you want, play when you want etc. The music and atmosphere are great.

I absolutely love the steam deck track pads and gyro. Its good to know that people out there don’t think 100+ is out of bounds for value, but it might still be a little out of my price range for what I’m willing to spend on a peripheral.

I regret not buying one back then, they are currently going for 100+ dollars. It is wild how expensive they are but I have heard they are very good.

I am a father of young children. Prior to my deck, I would be just too tired by the time the kids were asleep to go downstairs in my basement and play on my desktop. That just led to me playing games maybe once a week on the weekend.

Now that I have a deck, I can kick my feet up on the couch and play for an hour or two before bed.

Because of the deck I actually am able to make time to play games. Without the deck I just skip games altogether during the week.

I initially hated gyro, but the more I use it, the more I want to use it.
