Hello, The Gary!

[-] EmDash@beehaw.org 7 points 10 months ago

Does it support Plex and Jellyfin?

[-] noctisatrae@beehaw.org 7 points 10 months ago

It does ! It’s a PC! You can add anything to your Steam library and launch it as a game in gaming mode. You can also install Flex from the discover app!

Anything that supports Linux also supports the Steam Deck. Bonus poinrs if it's available as a Flatpak.

Looks awesome, if I had a deck I bet I spend more time messing with it then actually gaming on it

[-] noctisatrae@beehaw.org 4 points 10 months ago

I have to find some good AAA games that run well on the Steam Deck (not like Baldur’s Gate III — even tho the game is really good!)

[-] moody@lemmings.world 6 points 10 months ago

Or less demanding games like Hades, which plays like it was made for the Steam Deck.

[-] noctisatrae@beehaw.org 2 points 10 months ago

Thanks to you, I tried Katana Zero and I’m currently back in my Cyberpunk phase.

I need to play some Cyberpunk TTRPG now! Thanks for making my night more exciting!

[-] moody@lemmings.world 1 points 10 months ago

Besides Hades, Souls games play very well and Subnautica works great. Heavy action FPS games are a bit rougher on handhelds IMO, but Prey is slower and plays well. Metroidvanias and roguelikes are also Steam Deck staples.

Xbox Cloud Gaming works great on the Deck!

Elden Ring runs great

I really like it but I would like it to be open-source to try adding controller support since they want to officially support the Steam Deck!

[-] refurbishedrefurbisher@lemmy.sdf.org 3 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

It is open source and it kinda has controller support, but you have to enable it.

For the Deck, I map it as a keyboard in Steam

I should go back and rewatch this. I really enjoyed the first season, but then I know I watched the rest but couldn't tell you what all happened.

[-] Radiant_sir_radiant@beehaw.org 3 points 10 months ago

Same here!
I just remember stuff getting weirder and weider. Not that that's a bad thing (especially not for this series), but my brain's ability to store information is directly proportional to the amount of dots it can connect between known stuff and new stuff, and apparently somewhere along season 2 it just threw its hands up and exclaimed "screw this."

Still a lovely series though. I hope Gary at least got a fresh cookie at the end.

I really like it, though the big warning is it was canceled without resolving anything. (guess a graphic novel is coming out to actually resolve it).

[-] anon6789@beehaw.org 1 points 10 months ago

Oh that is cool. I thought it had an ending but I lost a lot of plot points between seasons which is probably why I have no idea what happened after season 1. I'm good with a graphic novel to wrap it up.

Now I just need someone to finish Infinity Train!

Doesn't this feel bulky/heavy for binge watch stuff?

[-] lemillionsocks@beehaw.org 5 points 10 months ago

Ive held my buddy's deck a few times, and despite how bulky it is, it is well balanced and feels light in your hands.

Otherwise for streaming it's a linux PC so if youre downloading files or using plex/jellyfin(or even a legit streaming service the BS with browser DRM on some services not giving you full hd doesnt matter as much on a small 720p screen) you can have it auto play, or use kde connect to remote control with your phone and etc.

[-] noctisatrae@beehaw.org 2 points 10 months ago

Not at all, I don’t need to touch it, it autoplays every episode !

[-] GammaGames@beehaw.org 2 points 10 months ago

I use my Switch like this for YouTube! My Bluetooth headphones pair to it and it’s nice to be able to pick up my video to go do chores (and the reverse of dropping it into the dock when I wanna sit)

[-] noctisatrae@beehaw.org 2 points 10 months ago

Yes, I understand the appeal of watching things on your handled
