Hey everyone! I’ve been thinking about getting a Steam Deck. I considered buying one when it first came out, but I wasn’t sure if it was worth the money at the time.

I only use Steam, and I like to play open-world RPGs and indie games, so I feel like the Deck could be a great fit for me, even though I’m more used to playing with a keyboard.

The thing is, I just got a new setup last month. It was expensive, and my PC can run anything on max settings, but I usually only have time to play on weekends.

So, what do you all think, is it worth getting a Steam Deck? And if so, would you recommend the OLED 512GB or the 1TB model?

Thank you!

I've been a long time follower of Digital Foundry.

They've been extensively testing the newly leaked FSR4. It's great for image quality, but heavy on the processing side, not giving a boost in fps.

It's a very interesting watch, if you're into tinkering.

What do you think about it? Have you tried it so far? What's next for us?

Performance:

Although it lists as "Playable" like Planet Coaster 2 JWE3 has a day 1 Steam Deck version. It should already be set up on launching the game. It is mostly low settings, 800p @ 30 FPS with FSR set to quality. It overall looks decent on deck. Not as good as on an actual PC obviously but dino park building on the go is great to have. It only has frame dips primarily when first loading a park, and when putting down buildings, particularly large buildings. But in no way did it hinder my experience. Controls very well, though a little clunky making custom buildings.

The game itself:

I'm confused because this has to be the least buggy Frontier launch I've ever played. It is for the most part solid with some minor bugs. The game itself is absolutely amazing and imo the new best in the series for the Jurassic World Evolution games. The customization is top notch, and as always you can build a family friendly T Rex exhibit. Overall 9 out of 10 for me I recommend it.

A retro shooter inspired by classics like Wolfenstein and Doom. Think of it as a tribute, a love letter to the games that defined a generation, with a few modern touches of my own. It’s tough, fast, and demands skill, just the way those old-school shooters did.

I have no idea why this needs 18 GB, but it's free so I'm not complaining. Not sure how well it works on the Deck, testing it right now. Edit: So I played it for 1 hour, no problems so far, seems to work fine.

So second attempt at dealing with my pain, firstly they wanted me just to go down the pain pathway, which would be finding medication that reduces the pain, but it only ever "reduces" it, and never to a point where I feel able to get up and out of bed, so after pushing the docs and collapsing a lot like last night, we have decided to remove some of my lower bowel.

Mentally I'm done. I feel like I cannot physically make it, I cannot push through the pain, if I could end it tomorrow I would because I don't see anything worth fighting for, I just feel done.

So once again, I thank you all for your help, your attention, your support. The reason I fight on is for my family, but it's always for the family I've made here, but as I say, it's becoming too hard.

Add me on steam, I don't know how often, or whether I will be on, but I will try - 82871772

I am on my discord a little more, you can find me there but again, none of you had to do anything, it's just been nice having you all around.

Being stuck in bed the past few weeks means, wanting to play games my steam deck either can't or doesn't play well.

STREAMING! It's honestly such a way forward, wether it's Xbox cloud, moonlight or or Nvidia (I use Nvidia Ge Force and Xbox Cloud)

It delivers well, I get to play BF6 at 60fps on my deck or Silent Hill F, games with the anti cheat I can now play, it's super helpful.

A little review :

Halloween is my favourite time of year, my second behind Christmas.

Ravenous Devils - Heard of Sweeny Todd? Well it's basically that, you manage a Victorian pie shop downstairs and tailor upstairs. It's pretty much a simple click and do this, people come to see the tailor, you kill them drop them down to your wife who grinds the up and makes pies and Steaks.

You make money, make your system and equipment better and don't get caught! It's fun!

I love games where YOU are the villain. And for 3.99 it's a solid great game that I had never come across before!

The Drifter - A point and click adventure I came along, you're a "Drifter" a homeless guy, an Aussie in Australia dealing with homeless people going missing in the night.

It's nothing new regarding the mechanics, but simply the story and VOICE ACTING it's phenomenal and again, whilst being cheap, it's scary in a real life kind of way. It's perfect for the deck and just great for when moving a few fingers is the least painful thing to do!

Thanks for reading (Apologises for the depressing part)

Love you all.

• Previously Enjoyed Games (while listening to audiobooks): Hades, Dead Cells, Diablo IV, PoE2, …
• Preferred Genres: Doesn’t really matter. (But no Rogue-like & -lite and running simulators like the “survivors genre” please.)
• Budget: -
• Other Notes: Focus should be that the games are playable while listening to audiobooks without sacrificing too much of its atmosphere. Playable with very quiet to no sound. BG3 or Sea of Stars (which I’m enjoying while NOT listening to audiobooks right now, won’t work, as I can’t follow the story while following the story of an audiobook.

Flash gaming is BACK, baby! In this video, I show you how to bring Adobe Flash games back to life right on your Steam Deck using EmuDeck and EmulationStation-DE (ES-DE). From Newgrounds classics to those weird little gems you wasted hours on back in the 2000s— they all live again.

I’ll walk you through everything you need to get Ruffle, EmuDeck, and ES-DE playing nice together, plus show off some working examples running natively on Deck. No Windows, no streaming — pure Deck magic.

Kind of a noob question, but I'm curious of the quality of Remote Play over a local network as well as with resolution output.

For context, I used to have my PC and TV in the same room and used my 4k tv as a second monitor which I would play games on via Big Picture Mode. I recently moved and now my TV is in the living room and PC is in the office. I kind of got used to playing my PC on my couch and find it hard to go back to the computer desk for a lot of games.

I was thinking of moving my PC to my living room but then I would lose the desktop setup for other games (FPS etc) I saw that the Steam Deck has a dock which connects to HDMI which might be the solution I'm looking for. While I like the portability of the Deck, I'm wondering if I can just use it as an access point to my PC and connect it to the TV while using controller or mouse and keyboard to game from my living room (basically using it as a replacement for Big Picture Mode).

Would the Steam Deck be worth the price if I mainly use it docked to stream my PC to my TV? I'm afraid of the latency while playing over a wifi network as well as upscaling the resolution to 1440 or 4k. I feel like this would be a considerable downgrade from using the TV as a monitor but maybe I'm wrong? Does anyone else use their Deck this way?

Thanks!
