- Comment on Looking for a local co-op game to play with my SO (Steam Deck) 1 week ago:
We got a puppy so gaming has been pretty much non-existent… We did try a few games, but none of them were good enough for me:
-
Phogs: felt very repetitive
-
Unraveled 2: Can’t really say what turns me off but it really doesn’t spark joy for me. The puzzles just feel uninteresting and with no purpose.

… But so is Windows

It went on sale yesterday so I ended up buying it!
- Comment on Looking for a local co-op game to play with my SO (Steam Deck) 2 months ago:
I have not. I have a 144hz monitor and even at 144fps games games with heavy camera movement are unplayable.
- Comment on Looking for a local co-op game to play with my SO (Steam Deck) 2 months ago:
Some games don’t even have crosshairs… Another big offender was Spyro, for instance. Just the camera moving was enough to make me sick in the stomach.

Phogs
This one caught my eye as well. Split Fiction had a small section that played very similarly to this game, don’t want to spoil too much. It was fun, but I’m unsure if I want a full game about it.
Cassette Beasts
This one looks good for me heh :P
Sea of Stars
This one has been on my wishlist forever now, the mixed reviews have been turning me off. I’m not sure if these classic RPG games are her thing but we should try and figure it out.
Children of Morta
This one fell flat for me. I don’t know why, I didn’t connect with the game.

I’ve had motion sickness ever since I remember. I just can’t play shooters, it’s physically impossible for me.
Somethings help like a TV instead of a monitor, zooming out as much as possible, moving as further from tv as possible, low camera speed. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn’t. It’s a struggle.

Trine
I do own the first 2, I totally forget about this game. Definitely gonna give it a try.
Spiritfarer
I already played and loved SpiritFarer, it was an amazing journey. I don’t want to say too much but I just can’t repeat it any time soon.
The lego games
I forgot to mention in the original post that we did play the lord of the rings lego game and I really hated it. I found the gameplay so boring…
Knights And Bikes
This one looks intriguing, I’ll check it out!
Monaco
I do own Monaco, maybe i’ll give it a try!
Thanks!

I have RetroDeck set up but I’m honestly not into emulation. I do own a Nintendo Switch and we’ve played a couple of those. They’re fun but I’m not looking into supporting Nintendo for the time being.
- Comment on Looking for a local co-op game to play with my SO (Steam Deck) 2 months ago:
You know I have like 4 manuals printed and only played it once? Gotta give it a try some time!!
- Comment on Looking for a local co-op game to play with my SO (Steam Deck) 2 months ago:
Broaden your horizons, start using emulators.
I get what you’re saying. I do have RetroDeck fully set up but I only use for old games that I do physically own. Most of them haven’t aged very well and aren’t of any interest to my SO.
I have enough disposable money that I’d rather support “new” games/developers rather than emulating titles for other consoles.

The
Cinnabunnysequel looks so adorable. Lots of animal crossing vibes. Definitely wishlisting that! - Comment on Looking for a local co-op game to play with my SO (Steam Deck) 2 months ago:
Fortunately I already made that mistake once, a friend recommended me Spelunky 2 as a casual mining game…

Tinkering is fine, I’ll definitely check it out. Thanks!
- Comment on Looking for a local co-op game to play with my SO (Steam Deck) 2 months ago:
I don’t know why I didn’t remember this. I do have a decent PC and the streaming functionality works quite well. I played Path of Exile 2 this way and it was great. Thanks for reminding me!
- Comment on Looking for a local co-op game to play with my SO (Steam Deck) 2 months ago:
It looks sick, definitely something I’d enjoy playing. Unfortunately I feel like it would fall under the same umbrella as Overcooked or Moving Out. Too chaotic, I think.
- Comment on Looking for a local co-op game to play with my SO (Steam Deck) 2 months ago:
This one looks for me, actually :P
- Comment on Looking for a local co-op game to play with my SO (Steam Deck) 2 months ago:
The steam deck status is unfortunately unsupported. Otherwise it would be a great fit.
- Comment on Looking for a local co-op game to play with my SO (Steam Deck) 2 months ago:
Trine sounds like a great idea, I already have the first two. Gonna give it a go.
We tried the lego lord of the rings game but it fell flat for us.
- Comment on Looking for a local co-op game to play with my SO (Steam Deck) 2 months ago:
I have Baba Is You! It’s a brilliant game, love it to pieces, but it’s not a good fit for my SO. She’d lose interest very fast, looking for something more chill and casual.
- Comment on Looking for a local co-op game to play with my SO (Steam Deck) 2 months ago:
Blue Prince is definitely something I’ve been considering but I’m unsure if she’d enjoy games that are just puzzles. Pretty sure Lorelei is just too thinky for her to enjoy.
Definitely looking into more chill games to blow off some steam.

Oh don’t worry, it will be way less than an hour :P
- Comment on Path of Exile 2's disastrous new update reveals the core tension at the heart of its design: How do you make a game with meaningful combat when everyone just wants to blast monsters? 3 months ago:
The maps in act 2 and 3 already felt too long and repetitive, if normal mobs just take longer to clear that’s a big turnoff to an already underwhelming experience.
- Comment on 6* months away now. If you're on 10, do you plan to upgrade? Make the jump to Linux? 3 months ago:
I use Linux exclusively but I don’t think it’s relevant to the discussion.
I would rather use windows 11 than any other EOL version of windows. I loved windows XP when it came out, wouldn’t dare to use it today.
- Comment on 6* months away now. If you're on 10, do you plan to upgrade? Make the jump to Linux? 3 months ago:
It might be a remote exploit or it might not. An OS is not just a program that runs in the background, if it is critically important.
These kind of exploiters don’t tend to attack you in particular, they have botnets scanning the web for any compromised machine.
Running windows 10 is fine today, might not be fine after EOL. It is irresponsible to shrug it off and not even consider the alternatives out there, including windows 11.

The desktop environment is called KDE Plasma. Every distribution with KDE will look and feel very similar.
Fedora is a good and safe bet for a distribution.

The problem is that as soon as a security issue is found on windows 10 it won’t be fixed, it is perpetual. In Windows 11 it will probably be fixed before you even know it exists.
- Comment on The Switch 2 Rollout Was So Convoluted It Made Us Want A Steam Deck. 3 months ago:
I can understand the console being more expensive, especially since we don’t really know its specs yet (or at least I don’t). Why is Mario Kart 30 euros more expensive, tho? It doesn’t paint a good picture.
