- The BEST PART of the Steam Deck isn't the screen, or the system, or the form factor, or the smell of those sweet sweet vent fumes. It's ALL about the GAMES!

I get paid very little (I'm only a part-timer while in college), so I was afraid I'd regret shelling out $400 for a Steam Deck, but I've been loving it! It's so much fun to play games from the comfort of my bed, especially since my laptop is too crappy to play games.
Man, if I had this thing in college it would be my everything. No laptop, just this and a dock.
i’m a working adult and all my life i’ve been using apple laptops for school and work, and so far this is the best thing that happened to me
It's funny, because I've actually found that the Deck is great for college work. I have a dock, and a monitor with mine. I use it when I don't want to use a laptop for stuff. Laptops are a lot more awkward.
Where yall getting it for 400$ ??

After I got my first LCD Steam Deck... I sold my gaming PC, my xbox, my playstation and my switch... then I upgraded to a SD OLED LE... never going back. Also been a PC gamer my whole life, but this is it, this is the PC gaming revolution we were all waiting for. The Deck OLED is just majestic.
Well said
me too. I sold my gaming pc for steam deck and it was so worth it ❤👌
Sold my Xbox Series X since im always on the deck, but damn i cant sell Switch. Love it too much.
Steam Deck and Switch is all i need.
You shouldnt have sold your playstation imo. You can play bloodborne and many other playstation exclusives enhacncing the deck expierence
180. The PC 180 we were all waiting for. A revolution is just one spin round.
Yeah, I’ve been using mine to play all the games I passed up on 10-15 years ago, and it’s amazing for that.
Give us some titles!
I'd love to be Ruler of all ants.
I just bought mine today. I picked up the oled 1tb version off of marketplace. What are some good games that you’ve found? Please list a few…I’ve taken notes of some of titles in this video.
@@michaelwright956enslaved, no no kuni, dishonored, a hat in time, yakuza series, brutal legend, bayonetta, Alan wake, darksiders, Batman Arkham series, and bastion to list a few.
@@michaelwright956 basically anything that’s in the “plays great on the deck” section of steam from ps360 era. Brutal legend is next on my list after I finish Mother 3.
Dishonored and Enslaved after that. Lots of gems in that era that run great on the deck. Hopefully this gives you some insight on the stuff im aiming to play on my deckyboi
@@zevilaga ni no kuni and a hat in time are always easy suggestion!
I remember when I got my Steam deck almost 2 years ago and I let my wife try it out and she thought it was okay, now she uses it more than I do and I have to stand over her to give her the hint I want it back 👀👀👀
This is the way
Haha😂
You gotta be like "oh wow i better buy myself the new one then" lol
@@Zaque-TV OP, you have to let me know if this works
The Deck brought me back to PC gaming too! Sitting on the couch or at work 5 minutes at a time is so much more convenient than bootin gup my full PC.
I've had my deck since it was first released (well, 3 months after, when it arrived).
I've got an SD storage device with a ton of USB adaptors, and a dock with a replaceable M.2 SSD.
I carry those in a Jsaux carrying case, along with a spare power block, HDMI cable. In my bag, I have a portable screen, 11 controllers (including a wii-mote).
I take these to college, and occasionally even get to pull them out for work.
I carry a mouse and keyboard and essentially treat it like a more playable laptop.
It is for work and play.
What I love the most about it is that it can be played ANYWHERE. On the bus, in the office, in bed, on the toilet...
It's like the Gameboy I played as a kid, but playing PS1, PS2, GBA, romhacks and mods ON TOP OF brand new games!
I've been playing Helldivers 2 and it's a BLAST!
Man i *LOVE* your channel.
Thank you 4 sharing stuff like this with the rest of us.
I think the Steam Deck is the greatest gaming device 🐐 I’ve ever purchased in my entire life and I’ve owned like 20+ different home consoles mixed with handhelds before.
Steam Deck is not my personal favorite, but it’s the greatest gaming device I’ve ever bought. I believe in time, it can be my favorite. I’ve owned the Vita for nearly 7 years and I don’t ever recall gaming on it much as my Steam Deck during the last 12 days I’ve owned it. Same applies to my Switch Lite.
I bring my Steam Deck with me all the time. It’s usually placed in the back of my car and when I have downtime since I’m a delivery driver, I’ll play it. And I don’t just play like 10-15 minutes spurts. I’m talking about using the entire battery life. That’s usually about 3 hours if all my games are set to 30 fps.
Understand that I haven’t really gamed much since the mid 00s. I became more of a casual gamer. I missed out on the PS3 and Xbox 360 during their heyday. During Gen 6, I was working and dated someone. Didn’t have much time to game from 2003-2006. Then when I got a PS4 slim in May 2017, I had games for it but I mostly used it for Netflix and watching videos from an external hard drive.
It wasn’t until I bought a Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 3 did I get back into emulation after my modded first gen iPod touch and PSP phat ran ROMs from 2008-2010. I discovered by Sept 2021 that PSP and Dreamcast emulation became excellent and GameCube and PS2 improved immensely as long as I had a powerful chip like the maligned Snapdragon 888.
Steam Deck is basically taking my PS4 everywhere with me. I know it’s probably closer to an Xbox One but you can still play God of War (2018), Uncharted 4, Spider-Man, and The Last of Us on it. You can play Metal Gear Solid 5 and the FF7 Remake. Each time I turn it off after a gaming session, I tell myself how awesome it is.
Remember when you were a kid and you couldn’t wait to open your presents on Christmas? That’s the same feeling I get when playing my Steam Deck. It’s a godsend to middle aged guys like me (Xennial) and new daddies who want to play a quick game of GTA5 while trying to put the baby to sleep.
I don’t plan to own a lot of games for my Steam Deck. I notice when I bombard any handheld with so many games, I tend to play less of it. It’s because there are so many options. My ADHD will prevent me from finishing a game because I’ll keep changing the game I want to play. That’s why I uninstalled EmuDeck. If I’m going to do that, I’d rather do that on my Flip3 or get an Odin 2.
I’ll use my iPhone SE 2022 and Vita for mostly indies. I’ll use my Switch for Nintendo exclusives. Only AAA titles released during the last 15 years will be on my Steam Deck and it’s usually an IP I’m familiar with like Final Fantasy, Uncharted, God of War, and Metal Gear Solid. I’m not familiar with Elden Ring, Baldur’s Gate 3, and Starfield. I’m not even into the GTA but I’m hearing GTA6 will save this gen.
I know the Steam Deck isn’t perfect. Compared to a ROG Ally and Legion Go with the Z1 Extreme, it’s not as powerful as those two. Then sometimes the games won’t launch because those games were originally developed to work on Windows. But I love mines! It’s so nice to game on it and without weaker graphics that the Switch will have. I don’t believe the Switch 2 will be that much more powerful than it when it arrives in 2025.
Steam Deck is surprisingly comfortable to game on. Inexpensive. Easy to repair. Great software and community support. I think Steam Deck will reign supreme until the Deck 2 comes out. It’s become my PlayStation for PC games since Sony isn’t part of the handheld wars anymore and the PS Portal doesn’t count as a handheld.
I do think the Deck is expendable. Once another new form factor or the successor arrives, there is no point keeping your old Deck. No worries of backwards compatibility. Same applies to the Switch if the successor is backwards compatible. It’s not like the Vita which never had a successor. So you never really get sentimentally attached because a newer one will completely replace the older one.
Let’s say a Steam Deck Lite comes out, I’d sell my current one without hesitation. I can praise my current one now as I’m still in my honeymoon phase with it, but I know I can never get emotionally attached because it’s easily replaceable. I may sell my LCD one once the used OLEDs go down to $350. Sell my LCD for $250 and add another $100 to get the OLED. But it most likely happens when Deck 2 is out.
Rather have beefier newer hardware than a more comfortable footprint but still has the same old chip. Steam Deck is already pretty comfortable as is.

Steam Deck could already be the GOAT by next week. It’s a complete godsend to gamers everywhere and who want that portability. I’m going to be on Team Gabe/Valve for a while unless Sony finally returns to the handheld race.
I share the same exact experience indeed, except it also brought a new love for retrogaming and I’ve been trying consoles and games I never had access to when I was a kid (and poor.. ;D).
ive had my deck a year now and still loving it got me back into gaming the deck is just perfect for me
Yes! Please make a favorite current PC games you are playing video. Amazing content. It's interesting to hear about old games I might have 😮 missed😮
Dude, thanks for the ssd upgrade! I'm ordering it immediately! Plus, your editing skills for your vids have been improving BIG TIME! Keep up the good work sir!
Thanks for saying so buddy!
Great video! I bought "The Gunk" because of your device, played it on my LCD Stem Deck: fantastic acton adventure in a beautiful, colorful environment - and now I ordered the OLED Steam Deck ... ;-) Greetings from Bremen, Germany
Great video hope to see more like this! I recently got one too but haven’t played it much until I do the memory upgrade
Couldn’t agree more. Resisted it first and then finally caved and by the time the OLED
LE model came out I had 3 decks 🤦♂️ but gifted one to a family member now I daily drive the OLED and leave the LCD model docked to a TV. Gets more playtime than my gaming laptop and my Gaming PC that I built myself. It’s honestly hard to understand why but it just feels so natural to grab and game versus getting yourself ready to go on any windows PC setup
Haha same. My Deck gets more game time than my PC with an RTX 4070 ti. The Deck just makes it a funner experience.
@@TechDweeb haha yep - ive got a RTX 3090 desktop I built awhile back with a 12 core 24 thread CPU and a 3060 laptop gpu with an amazing 14 core 20 thread CPU ----yet i still grab the Deck more than those...it is what it is!!!
I have the lcd steam deck, is it worth the upgrade to get the oled deck? Is it playing any games you can't on the original
The steam deck was probably one of the best purchases that I have made in a good while. And currently spending some hours trying to get perfection on stardew valley. Something I have tried to do on my gaming rig but can't sit in my office long enough to do it, but w the deck I can. Also, always great content Techdweeb. Thank you.
Prey is an absolute modern classic, you should probably focus on that first because it's absolutely worth it, and carries on the System Shock style of gameplay.
It's really weird as a longtime Desktop Linux user, as when you guys and gals all talk about gaming on the Deck, I have to remind myself, 'hey, this applies to me too!' So right now I'm catching up on a fifteen year gaming backlog.
Great video! It is always about the games! That's why I love the Steam Deck, too! It's easy to play nearly any game you like new or old! It also is just really easy to pick up, set up, and start gaming quickly with no hassle!
I've been playing Dishonored and Fallout 4, both at very high settings, they look amazing and run so well on deck.
Steam Deck is a gaming machine with almost no friction. Playing games on PC sometimes feel like a ritual. You have to sit at that chair that never feels entirely comfortable, boot up the PC, boot up the game, watch loading screen. It may not be much effort, but sometimes you don't feel like going through all that just to play a simple indie game. With Steam Deck, you just push a button and start playing, right from where you left off last time.
The Nerdnest guy got me on the humble bundle. I play all those games on the deck and love it.
Oh definitely! I've been a humble subscriber since day 1!
He got me to not be afraid of Freddy Krueger with his beautiful sweater
Steam Deck and Tech Dweeb are an amazing combo!
Your last point is such a good one. Whenever my family meets up now its expected that I've brought my steam deck and dock so that we can play jackbox games (so long as the little one is asleep, I'm sure we're not the only ones that don't stay child friendly when playing those!)
Thanks for the recommendation for Death Must Die. I bought it yesterday and it's great. You had me at "it's a mix of Hades and Vampire Survivors". Totally true and I love it! Great video as always!
I almost never buy games day 1 anymore. It started with switch but solidified with the deck. The discounts on games get insane and there are so many games that have come out over the years that I'd rather just get them and play what's new now in a few years when all the dlc, patches, and discounts get nuts. I'm in love with my deck. Can't live without now.
Handheld PC's are the future of PC gaming. Lower cost of entry compared to desktop PC's and play games great! I'm on the ROG Ally and honestly I will probably upgrade to another PC handheld in the future rather than spend money on an insanely priced GPU
LOL You might think that when an handheld is all you have. However, Most new AAA releases are played best on a Decent high-end gaming rig. Just remember, there's loads of people who can afford a shiny new GPU.
yeah. I think of handheld PC's as companion device. they're for less demanding games. my main rig is for demanding titles and kb&m heavy games.
@@UmVtCg I have a gaming tower right now that can play any modern game I'm interested in... Yet I find myself gaming on my steam deck way more than my PC
@@UmVtCg I have a perfectly good gaming PC and much prefer playing on the Deck. Can lay down on the couch and play wherever I like comfortably.
Great vid man, might've convinced me, esp given the ease of use getting mp games onto a TV, hadn't considered that in my opinions on it. Also yeah, a vid on your favs/recommendations would be fitting and appreciated content for sure 👍
Been really enjoying the borderlands games on my steam deck. I’ve been able to just stream it from my pc to my deck flawlessly. I always had latency issues when streaming to my phone but something with the deck makes it so much better!
Prey is such a great game, I played it for the first time last year and I couldn't stop. I replayed it probably five times over the course of a month and a half and loved every minute.
I’m happy you finally got a deck it’s a awesome backlog fighter
Absolutely adore my OG Steamdeck! Still knee-deep in Elden Ring, but with the DLC on the horizon, it's poised to be my trusty companion once again. Shifting back to PC gaming from handhelds has been a breeze, thanks to its versatility. Awesome video, eh! Couldn't help but notice the Canadian vibes - hope you had a fantastic Family Day, eh?
Steam deck kicks ass , so good for gaming and emulating
Deck, Switch & multiple Anbernic devices gamer here.
Working 2 jobs so I'm always on the go.
I think your pie chart is actually very accurate. When I talk gaming with some of the guys I know, they all say “what’s a steam deck?!”
Can't agree more. Looked at the Deck thinking I don't need this as I'm playing my games on my PC. Finally pulled the trigger on a second hand LCD Deck and got so hooked on with it that I almost play all my games on the Deck now. And eventually I upgraded to the OLED model.
I have the deck connected to the TV and running brotato is always a great time lol
Agreed. I enjoy going through my catalog, and loading up games I forgot I even purchased. Love BioShock infinite with its old timely cult vibe story. Thanks Dweeb :)
Love your videos. They inspired me to get a steamdeck and start upgrading it. I’m also into vampire survivor-type games.
Have you ever tried the game “Waves”? It’s older but so, so fun.
Great video, please do more recommendations, there's always hidden gems in the steam store, greetings from Chile 😃
I havent been pcgaming for maybe 15 yrs... and just got a Oled deck... I am seriously impressed.... spent all day playing diablo IV...
I was lucky to find my deck used at almost half price...
First time watching your videos. Great content!
PS. Do you have a cold?😅
list of favorite pc games sounds great, also , i would love to see the Dweep playing Prey , have you tought about letsplays and such ? like maybe not too many but just sometimes ?🥺🥺🥺
I have been playing a little bit of crisis core on PC, and it's nice to continue it wherever on the deck. When it works, cloud save data is awesome on the deck.
I've enjoyed my Steam Deck... my current games are Halo (MCC) and Stray. I'm always looking for good games to play. Thanks Tech for the suggestions. Have a great day.
I have The Gunk too! Good to know it runs on the Steam Deck. My Win600 and Loki Mini Pro are my definitive PC backlog Handhelds. However I might buy the Steam Deck for PC Emulation and Moddability.
I love my OG Steam Deck. It has allowed me to really hit my backlog and get through some games when I have a few minutes to play here and there while away from the house. I enjoyed playing the Walking Dead Telltale games, Enslaved: Odyssey to the West, and many others. I grew up on PC gaming before transitioning to consoles as well. The Steam Deck has brought PC gaming back to my #1 platform. Also, Emudeck is phenomenal for playing those 6th and 7th Generation games as well as the true retro games.
In all honesty the deck has reignited my love of gaming, able to try so many games, I have a pretty big library on steam. My current pc is on It's last leg, not really able to run bigger titles, saving for a new one, but the setbacks are always prevalent. I can't play Tekken 8 on it but I play that on the deck almost flawlessly when my internet connection is stable. The device has just been a godsend in my life, and have tried many games I thought I would never get to, with the advantage of being able to sit in bed or on the couch. I am a pretty big Switch fan too, but the deck fumes have me hooked. I had the option of buying a new pc or the deck and I chose the deck, really not disappointed and I don't regret it a bit. I have that same Finn action figure XD.
My steam deck has become the main place I play single player games. It’s revived my love for them. Titles like God of War or Ni No Kuni, especially games that I wanted to play but never got round too. I bought mine used and paid £250, and it’s probably the best money I’ve spent in gaming since the Xbox 360 days.
yup, its awesome, i haven't used my pc to play games in 1.5 years and the will of the wisps is stunning! on the oled hdr!!!!! hands down my fav
I got a rog ally (I'm a lover of handheld devices in general) and it did the same for me. Made me love pc gaming again.
Agree 100%, i was kinda not playing games at all, much less om my gaming pc. I thought the deck would be superfluous. But it blew me away. I play it all the time. Even hard games that dont run well can be streamed to it from that gaming pc, like jedi survivor.
The deck is my favorite device too. And i like that it functions as the capstone to my play setup. Rg35xx for my uniform pocket, rp4 pro for portable ps2/GC, deck for pc and switch. I use my samsung s7 tablet with two 8bitdo sn30 controllers mostly for multiplayer though
Totally agree with all your points. I have never been a big gamer, only did PC gaming a few times over my adult life, but getting a Deck has made me a gamer and I game 100% on my deck, its my favorite device!
"We really need a new BioShock game!"
_Remembers that Irrational Games was shutdown in 2017..._
Dweebie, you are correct, the deck is my daily runner, ) I missed patreon last month, my dog little bro had 13 teeth pulled, It ran into big money, but little bro is happy and healthy again, now I am back!
Aw sorry to hear about your little dogbro :.(
Thanks buddy! I hugely appreciate your support!
what was the game where you were in the cockpit of a space ship, it only showed briefly
What controllers do you use when playing with others?
I didn't think if use a steam deck until I became a parent working 2 jobs.
I have 0 free time apart from a Friday night, but the resume feature has made it so that games like brotato, death must die, choo choo survival etc are accessible to me before sleeping.
Honestly it's kept my love of gaming alive and scratches the itch for me.
The Deck was the best purchase ever. I can Emulate everything up to xbox 360 and even Switch. I can download all the roms for free, directly on the Steam Deck. No need to download on pc and then transfer, since the Deck is a pc. I can download torrents, i install quacked Pc games and add them to Steam. Its a one time purchase and you get so much out of it.
Day 1 with my steam deck, I played fallout 4. 200 hours later I played through and beat dying light 2. I'm chipping away at my back log slowly and currently on borderlands remastered. I never beat it back in it day so here we are lol.
Was that X Wing vs Tie Fighter you were playing at the start of the video?
Idk how a PC player doesn't have tons of free games from Epic, Amazon and GOG, those 3 alone will fill up a backlog for years to come
(watching from my ally) Handheld PC gaming has been a game changer for me. I got the device expecting to be unimpressed and take advantage of best buy's return policy. But the opposite happened. If the steam deck was available in store I probably would have got one to test/buy, but I didn't want to buy one through valve because I wasn't confident I'd like the experience.
I love me GPD Win Mini myself, the lightest 7" handheld hands down.
I cried when i unboxed my steam deck, as I have been a big fan of valve as a company. Ive been gaming on a low mid tier PC and a past gen gaming laptop but the moment i loaded up Judgment on the steam deck, it was like my love for gaming got replenished. A year later im able to finish my backlogged games way back from 2013 and even play game’s released this year like Like a Dragon Infinite Wealth.
The Steam Deck is a magical device as it has become my ideal way of gaming.
3:45 I instantly liked the video for using "addictive" instead of "addicting"
I replayed Metal Gear Rising on my Deck, which is one of those rare classics that's locked to only the PC and PS3. Even if my Odin 2 is all powerful, the steam deck still has a place in my rotation.
Valve also makes a really good control setup. The buttons and thumbsticks on my OLED Deck are very good. I even really like the Steam Controller. I wish I had bought two and not just one.
Steam deck is an absolute epic piece of tech ordred one yesterday❤
I'm a sucker for deals and bundles! If it's on sale, I'll buy it! Though now I have over 1k games in the backlog!
Hey, you mentioned shoving controllers in family members hands. My question is how easy is it hooking up external controllers to the steam deck? I have a physical disability that makes using hand held impossible though I like the portability of something like a steam deck. Just wondering. Thanks for the awesome videos Tech dweeb.
SUUUPPPPEEERRR easy! Any bluetooth controller will work via BT, and you can plug in a hub and use wired controllers. You can even use xbox, switch, or Playstation controllers. Steam has great controller support.
@@TechDweeb Awesome thanks for letting me know. 😀
Your my inspiration tech dweeb! ❤
I’ve pick up a steam deck at GameStop refurbished $224.43 with 1 year warranty I traded in 5 switch games. steam deck runs amazing well I just bought dragon ball fighter z on steam for $8.99 I also bought tales of versperia on steam been playing 1 hour into it the steam graphics are amazing.
It’s all about the Game….and how you play it! *cue triple H’s theme music from the WWE*
good to know some people also love the smell of the vent fumes from the Steam Deck. I used to smell Apple product packaging from 10 years ago. Whatever it was, it was addicting. The packaging several years later didn't have that distinct smell.
Sadly I heard the vents smelt so much better on the LCD model, I've only smelt the OLED model 🥲
@@BensoftMedia only the OLED for me too. Need to smell one if ever I encounter one 😂
I'm so sad we didn't get the fancy colours on the OLED in the uk :(
Try the Beat Hazard series, Brotato, Just cause 3, MXGP 2020, the GRID series including Showdown and the Rally episodes. Another fun little gem is Little Orpheus.
All these games got me on my lcd Deck while they are 2-5 USD each.
"The Gunk" sounds amazing! Wish I had a deck. BUT☝🏽 is there any console that is better than the oled deck? I'd love to hear suggetions and opinions❤️ Great video as always TD.🌟
Nope. The Steam Deck is the BEST console currently available, in my opinion. Not the most graphically impressive, but the one with the best features, compatibility, and future-proofing your purchases today that will play on any Steam Deck or PC for years and years to come.
I think the main reason I haven't bought this near perfect machine is that it would make my very imperfect, but very nostalgic retroid pocket 2+ superfluous (whatever that means). I don't want this thing to take over, cause it'll outshine the pocket in every respect (except maybe the 4:3 screen ratrio and overall gameboy aesthetic). But it's very tempting cause it is just so dang good.
I think having a retro device like a Retroid is a great combo to have with the deck. I'm equal parts PC games and retro games, so having a dedicated device for both makes good sense.
Hey techdweeb, what handheld do you recommend for gba games? I got a rgb30 for gb and a rp3+ for psp but I need a gba handheld man:D
Mod your own gba
Anything widescreen. Probably something like an X55 would give you a really good experience. We don't have any good options for a 'perfect' gba device yet, sadly :.(
@@TechDweeb oh ok, I'll have to keep waiting then, on the flipside that's probably a good idea for another video, your "perfect device" for each retro console!
Rg351p and powkiddy rgb10 pro, if you can find them cheap and in good condition or new. Screen (480x320) with 2x integer scaling for gba, but not good for others.
Since you already have a rp3+, I assume you want a dedicated device for some reason, so any of the cheaper widescreen device would work decently too, old ones such as the rg503 or newer one (but the same rk3566 soc) like the rgb 10 max 3 (non pro), or the x55 as recommended above.
The backlog part is something I really identify with. I never got to play Oblivion and I kept hearing about how Skyrim is better on PC. I never got the play any of the fallouts. I never got to play any of the half-life games.
Also I don't have to do any jailbreaking to play emulators.
I sold my original SD for an Aya Neo 2..more power, better screen, etc. but the reality is that i dont get more than an hour game play for something like RDR2 or Fallout 4 on 800p high settings 30fps, plus there are constant crashes and landscape screen issues. So im thinking about whether i should get the oled SD, since from what i read it should give better battery life. Question is, should i? Is it better, i mean will it really offer me a better experience than the Aya Neo?
Eyyy!! Strikey Sisters gang! Closest thing to Firestriker (SNES) I've played! ^_^
But yeah, I really love my Deck(s). Ever since getting my first Deck, I've finally ACTUALLY been getting through my backlog as it plays like 95% of those and even most modern games. It's reawakened my love for gaming, and made me realize my love of tinkering. 💚
Hah, I typed this before you got to the Death Must Die part. I absolutely LOVE THAT game too!! 💚
Oh yeah! Love Strikey Sisters! Same devs as Bot Vice, one of my favourite indies :D
@@TechDweeb Oh, snap, I didn't know that. Yeah. It's a good vibe. Did you play Firestriker, too?
I'm always surprised that you don't upload in 4K. I guess cuz I always thought your videos are high quality.

Skynet is soooo smart
Im getting one next month. Its time to put my switch to rest 😊
It was the F.E.A.R series for me…❤❤❤❤🎉
i love playing "Dome keeper" on my steamDeck , "GTA5" too
What game was that in the first clip???
I can confirm that Prey (2017) is basically a masterpiece. I've played a lot a lot of games and I'm quite critical, but this one I find is very underrated and it was really strange that reviewers back in 2017 gave it a "good but not great or not anything special" type of rating. The original Prey from 2006 was also a great game (and very different than the 2017 one), but bizarrely they've completely removed it from stores online - you just can't find it anywhere.
And this video nails why our Steam Decks are so awesome. My massive Steam libraries waiting for me, mostly courtesy of Humble Bundle's monthly subscription haha, with so many cool indies to try out.
Finally played Dishonoured on the Deck after so many false starts on desktop. Titanfall2 and MassEffectLE amazing also. The trine games and so many more.
I would hold off the lastest emudeck update if I were you. It completely hosed Emulation Station for me.
how do u run vallhala so smooth ? its tru some proton ? thank for respond
I dunno? I just run it using the default settings. I turned down the graphics in the game settings I think.
Yeah the deck is really a great complement to having a high end pc. I’ve been able to finish more games because I can just play from my bed, the couch or wherever. I work from my pc so sometimes I just don’t feel like being at my desk. Currently getting through Like a Dragon infinite wealth strictly on my deck.
I have been playing LA Noire on the deck recently, brilliant game for the deck runs perfectly and you can do one case then put it down,.
I'm using my SD more and more. For awhile I would just turn it on to update it and then turn if off. Now I play regularly.
Doesn't it hurt to hold after a while due to the weight? I get sore with something even half as heavy. Otherwise though, super cool device. I love how good Linux gaming is getting lately.
Not for me. I dunno if it will be for you, but for me personally I can play this for hours without issue. But I play in my lap a lot so 🤷♂️
The problem with the coated steam deck oled is that layer makes pixels blurry.
Steam De ck might be the greatest thing ever created
I still haven't pulled the trigger on a Steamdeck despite being a huge Linux gamer....the size and low battery life kept me away. Even the the OLED version doesn't ring my bell, still too big to be really portable and my computer is always right there in front of my pretty face at home. I see no situation where I'd want to use this instead of that. If it were actually portable, then yes, I see a point in it, otherwise, nope. Great game selection Mr. Dweeb, I'm gonna try a few out!
Yeah it's definitely not for everyone. I was on the fence for the longest time, I thought it looked super ugly and would be big and awkward. But I was wrong, the large size just means more comfort in the hands. It's still pretty ugly though :P
Have you tried in-home streaming? That gives you a nearly perfect Steam-Deck-Like experience if you have a good screen and controller, or a streaming device.
@@TechDweebI do need to try out in home streaming more, I have a few android based handhelds that can do it...but screen size makes it too small and impractical. I might try this one out if I can find a good used one though, just wont pay $500+ for it---thats a good video card for cryin' out loud 🤣
Oh and how does Telltale Games The Walking Dead series look on the OLED?
