- Comment on A retro gaming handheld console has been amazing for me and I want to recommend it 1 week ago:
Interesting, ive been OK lugging my deck around but i mainly travel for work so it just goes in my daybag for train use/hotel use. And as i work from home mostly thats not daily - it gets most of its use around the house plugged into various chargers i have scattered by every casual seating spot…
Different strokes for different lifestyles i guess.

Interesting, i love the size of the steam deck - its a positive for me not a con. Im tempted to check out one of the smaller ones for fun if the price is right, but i also love the ‘all in one’ solution (so i dont have to sync game saves between devices etc) My 5yo daugher got heavily into Mario Odysee too! We have a switch so we let her on it, but had to wind back game time as she got a bit too obsessed. She went from being barely able to jump on boxes (as jump + move at the same time was hard) and like 3 weeks later she bet the basic game, and now is nearly 400 moons… She keeps asking me for help finding them and im like ‘kid, you surpassed my knowledge of the game a month back’

Why would you go for these devices over a steam deck + emudeck? My steam deck is my powerhouse that plays all my Indies, sreams more demanding games from my gaming PC, has a massive retro library and works as a Plex media streamer for travel. It’s my dream all-in-one device. The only reason I could see to add this as well would be the form factor?

Finished life is strange yesterday. Been on my backlog forever, kicking myself for not getting to it sooner. And no, I’m not ok.
Playing some mindless grim dawn on the deck since to scratch the ARPG itch, yet to decide if I move onto LiS: BtS soon or if I need some casual pallette cleansers before I’m emotionally ready for more.

If we had ircv3 specs that included reactions. etc we might be. I rolled a small group of IRC servers with a few selfhost people a year back and it was quite fun. Tbh IRC itself is still alive and well, it’s just not user friendly enough to get non-tech people over easily

Oh god I didn’t want to see this post. Been considering replacing my Ducky one ii and this sounds real sexy…
How does it feel and respond outside twitch FPS? I’ve had many years on CS source/overwatch/TF2, but I play plenty of chill games of late so I’m not always desperate for reducing latency. Still sounds amazing

We played in beta, pre-blueprints and will loop back around for another play now it’s 1.0 That said, it didn’t grab us as much as factorio did

Factorio - 1200hrs TF2 - ??? But lots Counterstrike source - ??? As above Satisfactory - 150 Ringworld/hell divers 2 /wargame red dragon / not new xcoms - 100-150hrs
I would have high scores on other titles before steam started tracking playtime / pre-steam

I will do a day one purchase despite being too busy with factorio expansion to actually start it just yet.

Thanks for the reminder, I wanted to give them a go this season and wasn’t quite sure when to jump in. I planted Jalapenos last summer that have actually survived winter somewhat, but had almost zero heat. Planning to get something a bit hotter this season
