A shame it doesn’t have hall effect thumbsticks (and vibration), but more quality controllers I will not shake a stick at.

Just as a small update, you might be surprised.

Does changing the user agent work?

Pretending to be Chrome on Windows seems easy enough

Valbe should automatically stop sales of any game that dips from verified to unplayable over these shenanigans.

Why $100?

It works with any USB-C hub - I spent $15 on a hub and $5 on an HDMI cable.

Cheapest OLED steam deck is $549.00 (USD) while the most expensive is $649.00 (USD).

So really either way not only all those positives, but it’s also at least $50 cheaper (which you can use to buy several games on Steam…)

Very nice - glad to not need the beta since it messed with some Steam Deck stuff like Gungeon video settings and the default dock volume…

Love that they’re making this change after CrowdStrike

Hope the Families beta is released to stable soon - the beta has some weird volume and display issues with some games (Gungeon is a good example).

Imagine being afraid of this bad boy of cheating

Wonder if they’ll add support for other handhelds

When lots game developers start releasing ARM or RISC-V versions

That is more than a little funny, given Valve’s release of Proton, and their stance on Native Linux builds (they recommended against it - just use proton)

Considering the trend seems to be a move towards ARM (see Mac M1, Windows on ARM + Window’s ARM translation layer) - I wouldnt be surprised if they do exactly that, eventually.

There’s already some work that might lead to it. As ARM gains prevalence, I think it’ll happen sooner rather than later - once all of those dependencies do all the hard work. The efficiency of ARM for mobile devices like the Steam Deck really just scream for it

Nothing stopping them from using an ARM processor for the Deck 2

If the game is available on the Wii U (cough Breath cough) you’ll be better off using that version, but Switch has come a long way.

I don’t think PS3 is very viable though, given it’s power and strange architecture.

Should hopefully be easier than dealing with transferring it off the Switch…

Get your videos where you want them. One-click share to a friend in chat or post your finest moments for the world to see. Plus easily send footage from your Steam Deck to your PC or mobile device.

Hm… I don’t see this as an option for Xbox Controllers (but do see the battery indicator).

Curious

Hm… is the Helldivers 2 experience positive?

Might be pretty good for running with some randos…
