And it’s gotten to a point where it’s being used as a utility computer in places, if I recall. That could’ve potentially sent sales snowballing away from typical console sale figures.

Some days, I question why humanity ever allowed public companies to exist. That very concept seems to be creating a lot of societal drawbacks these days.

Nintendo has their own IPs to carry them, I don’t think CoD is helping them much, if at all.

Hades II tops the list so hard, it even brought the previous game up with it!

65-ish of the Cyberpunk 2077 hours were mine, full disclosure. Edit: or at least on Steam as a whole, any amount of which could’ve been on Deck

Also, the devs of Factorio have a policy of never putting it on sale and adjusting for inflation sometimes, so if you’re gonna get it, now’s the time.

Ok, so it’s just a taste thing in this particular case, and not some other logistical thing like preservation?

As someone who’s never taken a drug in their life, I wonder what sort of reaction someone on LSD would have to something like Tetris Effect.

I mean, my nickname for that game is “Trippy Tetris”.

At this point, I’m hoping for there to be a spree of unionization.

Maybe a millennium from now we’ll have better means of keeping corporations in check, but in our species’ current and primitive state, unionization might be one of our only options.

Yeah, I might have to delete Twitter just to get away from political ads.

I subscribed to YouTube premium specifically to avoid political adverts while still supporting content creators (political adverts are even more repetitive and uncreative than commercials, in my mind), and I actively avoid any room my parents are in when they’re watching any TV at all during campaign season.

I’ll get my info on how to vote by actually looking up the candidates’ actions on databases, thanks.

I agree, honestly. The way I have it configured, I can even run Starfield (although the way I initially had it, the graphics looked like something off of a PS2/3 or a 3DS, and now the loading screens actually give me plenty of time to read the loading screen tips).

And the indie games (and also Elder Scrolls Online) that I normally play don’t even give me that much trouble.

I dunno if he moreso deserves the boot or the sword at this point.

As in, criminal penalties for basically running a harassment ring, if applicable.

Are there any equivalents for BBC Micro or Acorn Electron? I’m tempted to try Elite (the original) on Steam Deck, and while I did once download a copy for free on a previous laptop (when the devs were celebrating an anniversary a few years back), I don’t know if that version is compatible with Deck.

Is it already out? Or did the store page update prior to release?

Are… Are you suggesting that there are potential ways a public company system could’ve actually been handled better, rather than the concept itself being flawed by nature?

I’m not saying I disagree, I’m just saying that possibility never occurred to me for some reason. (Maybe it’s my justice sensitivity complex acting up)

My mistake, I may have seen a post previously that suggested something more like “Diablo 4 is now compatible with Steam Deck”, and my brain immediately saw the title of a rather controversial game and mentally blocked out the post.

Talos Principle. The VR version of the first game, haven’t gotten around to the second game yet. I love the puzzles (when I don’t struggle with timing running past mines), and it’s hilarious that the philosophical test to make a Milton admin profile showed me how utterly unprepared I am for philosophical debate, and how weirdly contradictory my viewpoints might be. Mind you, the only philosophy class I’ve taken in my life was an ethics class.

TL;DR Talos Principle is amazing so far, even though it makes me want to slink off back to college and sheepishly register for a philosophy class.

I question why this news is being posted at this point, let alone repeatedly.
