Kenny Logins posted:finally read through all the big steam deck reviews and I guess I'm glad my res is for Q2. still not sure I would follow through with it. when I made the res I was hoping I'd have a new job by now and a little more discretionary spending fliff. but I don't and the markets are awful so my natural impulse is to not spend on a new gadget I don't really need I wanna love the steam deck, but after seeing one in person, the formfactor is a show stopper for me. It's big enough that I'd need a backpack or bag to carry it, and it comes in at 1.47lbs, well beyond the already-too-heavy-for-comfort 1.01lbs and 1.37lbs of my gpd win 2 and onegx1 pro respectively.

ryzen desktop mobo bit the dust, so I decided to lash a jet engine to a lawn mower with some twine rx5700xt in a tb3 enclosure hanging off an i7-1160G7 handheld (onegx1 pro) running linux for maximum jamesing self loathing ngl, I'm kinda impressed how well it works

portables really stopped being portable some time ago. even the ds pushed the limit on pocketability I want a modern gba sp, with the modern "standard" controls (think xbox/ps), maybe using low profile analog sticks to keep it in a clamshell I can dream, right?

Achmed Jones posted:i suspect it's because some games do a higher resolution docked, which then ends up causing lowered performance directly or contributing to overheating (which then causes lowered performance). arguably all games have at least slightly more overhead when docked than handheld -- even if the game is internally rendered at 720p it gets scaled to 1080p before going out hdmi

3D Megadoodoo posted:Is there a good wireless headset for the PS5 under 100€? Swiss flag if it'll also work on Xbox Series X, Windows 10, and any earlier consoles, but it'll mainly be for PS5 anyway. i'm a huge fan of the steel series arctis 7 and thought it was about 100usd when i bought it, but it looks to be 170 now. they have a steel series 1 now at your pricepoint, and i suspect it would be decent, but haven't tried it personally.

polyester concept posted:playing rimworld gives you the perpetual feeling of “oh man if i can only get x sorted out, it’s gonna be smooth sailing from now on” but you never truly get it all sorted out. there’s always something you’re trying to recover from. sometimes there are brief moments of bliss when it's all running smoothly, and I guess that's why it's so addictive. always chasing that high my life is rimworld

i hate this thread. tricked me into playing on the easiest setting. spent about four hours chillin and base buildin when a mad donkey tears through and incapacitates all three of my fighters in one go, leaving me with a pair of pacifists and a still mad donkey.

pseudorandom name posted:The frustrating thing about the 8bitdo controllers is they have a wide variety of features but not all of the features are accessible in any one emulation mode -- the gyro isn't available in the Xbox emulation, the analog triggers are purely binary in the Switch emulation, the Android mode (normal USB HID DirectInput) limits basically everything and I've never gotten the macOS mode (some kind of half-assed DualShock 4 emulation) to work at all i have a pro+ and really wish it had a generic gamepad mode of it's own instead of insisting on emulating other devices. also for some reason the triggers on the pro+ come off way too easily. i usually find one in the bottom of my bag if i'm traveling with the thing.

The Fool posted:Would the steam deck owners in this thread mind giving opinions on it after owning it for a few months? those are entirely different things. get the gaming desktop if you want to game. get the steam deck if you want an oversized novel handheld gaming device. i can't speak for the steam deck itself, but i've gone through many handheld gaming pcs in the space (owned onegx1 pro, all the gpd win variants, had an aya neo on loan for a month). they all run hot and are bulky as gently caress so you don't want to break them out on the train, etc. the steam deck doesn't look to have solved any of that. my best experience in that realm was with a onegx1 pro, as i could use thunderbolt to attach an egpu for a decent desktop gaming experience. pretty much any of the intel based devices have tb, but almost none of the amd ones like steam deck.

the apu's specs aren't even anything special compared with amd's current gen mobile chips anyway. you get 4 zen2 cores and 8 rdna2 cores on the steam dick (thank you ornamental dingbat), while ryzen 6000 mobile chips have 6-8 zen3+ cores and 6-12 rdna2 cores
