For me it doesn't seem to apply to a certain game, but games that are over 100gb, or even the ones that are like under 2. It's funny because I have an uber speed internet with no caps so I can get them back any time I want but for some reason I keep a few certain games on the deck and never take them off.

I don’t have too much space left on my Steam deck so trying to pick just 1 or 2.

For reference, I’ve played on my desktop PC Grim Dawn, Diablo 2, Diablo 3, Torchlight 2, Last Epoch, and PoE

If you haven't played this 2002 gem, it's definitely worth your time. It's quirky, funny, and still looks, and plays great after 20 years.

The game is currently stuck in IP hell and is not available for purchase. Since it's considered abandonware, you can download it for free.

How to download it

Most people recommend the NOLF Revival version () but for me, this one worked much better, as it has the latest modernized patch applied:

ods/365799

(Reddit won't let me post the link here, remove the space)

Some of the benefits:

• More graphical options (including Anti-aliasing)

• Better stability

• Controller support

• Jukebox in the menu

How to install it

I used the Heroic Games Launcher but I am sure it will work with other launchers.

If you don't have Heroic, you can install it via the Discover Store in desktop mode.

1. In Heroic Games Launcher, select "Add game"
2. Enter the game title - "No One Lives Forever 2"
3. Expand "Show Wine Settings" and select Proton 8
4. Press "Run Installer first"
5. Point to the downloaded Nolf2_Setup.exe and install with default settings (important!)
6. The game is now installed. Click the folder icon in the "Select Executable" field.
7. Point to Home/Games/Heroic/Prefixes/default/No One Lives Forever 2/drive_c/No One Lives Forever 2/nolf2.exe

How to run it (and fix music)

First, we make sure the launcher can start:

1. Select "No One Lives Forever 2" tile in your Heroic home screen and press the icon with three sliders in top-right corner
2. Scroll down and press "WINETRICKS", then "OPEN WINETRICKS UI". You might need to scroll up if you don't see the button.
3. Press "ok" on any warnings that pop up
4. Make sure "Select default wineprefix" is selected and press "OK"
5. Select "Install a Windows DLL or component
6. Select:
7. directmusic
8. mfs42
9. msvcirt
10. Press "OK"
11. This will take a while and you will have to press "OK" on a bunch of popups or just leave it until it goes away.
12. Once you see the start window again ("What would you like to to do this prefix?"), you're done and close this window.

How to avoid the "InstallShield iKernel" crash

Right now, if you launch the game, it will show the launcher and an "install" button. When you press it, the installer will crash. No worries, the game is already installed, it just doesn't know it yet.

1. If you aren't in Desktop mode already, switch now
2. Download this file: and change the extension to .reg

For those who are curious, this is a bunch of Windows registry entries. Typically the installer should add them but it was not happening for me. These entries expect your game to be installed in "C:\No One Lives Forever 2", so as long as you did not mess with any installer settings at the beginning of this tutorial, you should be fine. 3. In Heroic, select the "No One Lives Forever 2" tile in your Heroic home screen and press the icon with three sliders in the top-right corner 4. Scroll down and press "WINETRICKS", then "OPEN WINETRICKS UI". You might need to scroll up if you don't see the button. 5. Press "ok" on any warnings that pop up 6. Make sure "Select default wineprefix" is selected and press "OK" 7. Select "Run regedit" 8. A Windows-style window pops up. In the top-left menu, select "Import" 9. Point to the s1bJaEiH.reg file that you downloaded in step 2. 10. The game is now installed and ready to be played!

Controller setup

This is down to personal taste but here's what works for me.

I created a controller layout that feels like it's still a work in progress but definitely playable.

1. Once you are in the game, go to preferences and enable controller support
2. In steam, search for profile called "No One Lives Forever 2 - JasnX"

A few notes:

• "Action" is under left trigger - reading notes, engaging dialog, opening doors, etc.
• Left trackpad is mapped as num keys. Use this for dialog choices and weapon selection
• Right trackpad is quick save/quick load
• Sometimes movement will get stuck after loading the game. Give it a few seconds and it will be fine.
• You might still need to press the STEAM button and use right trackpad as cursor to navigate some settings
• Gyro aiming enabled by default

Hi all

Always been a mouse and keyboard PC gamer and recently got a steam deck. I'm thoroughly enjoying classic 2d games but I cannot play any FPS.

I see so many of you saying you're playing fallout, battlefield, cyberpunk, and all these fps games but I can't figure out how to aim? I'm aiming like a 90 year old grandpa on controller, unable to hit anything! I tried to play some tps (division, rogue company) and I just get so frustrated! Are there any settings I should try? Sensitivity? Anything? Give me your best tips, please!

Appreciate it, cheers
