I'm amazed at the strong showing for older games like Stardew (which has an update coming soon) and Isaac. I mean, they're timeless games, just fun to see people still really into them!
I've been playing the first Like a Dragon, which is as much melodramatic and zany fun as any of the Yakuza games. I was very hesitant about the turn-based battle system, but it works really well and still feels like Yakuza.
Also been working on a second run of Grime, the metroidvania, which also had a big final update this week. It's very fun and ranks high among MVs for me, but it's also pretty hard and requires a nearly Seikiro-like mastery of defense timings.
I also fixed a weird SteamDeck issue this week. Maybe others will run into it. My deck started going super slow, and having trouble booting. I even tried a factory reset to no avail and was getting ready to warranty it, when I thought to try one last trick.
Apparently going into the system setup menu (hold Volume + while turning it on) and turning on long term battery storage mode, then turning it off again (by booting up with the power cord in) somehow fixes this issue. So i did that, and it worked!
I'm mystified as to what random setting got flipped that this corrects, but I'm happy it worked.
I had the same issue ages ago with the same fix. I'm curious what setting is getting stuck and why it hasn't been addressed in over a year.
