I bought the LCD when it was really steeply discounted, like nearly $280 CAD before taxes and duties for a new one. I bought my partner an oled one and the screen is strikingly different to me, size makes a difference and it’s a lot more vibrant (+ HDR).

The LCD is a solid machine and a great value, I like my partner’s screen and battery life but I don’t know if it’s worth spending twice the price. Regardless, both are really easy to service, way more comfortable than the switch is too.

I’ve been playing rogue trader on mine recently, I’d describe as playable, but it’s night and day different going through moonlight (which yeah, obviously). Satisfactory was able to get 40-60 pretty reliably.

How bad is bg3 on it?

Trying to be vague as heck in the spoilers, totally get it! Don’t think there’s anything there that’s super spoilery (I hope!) But definitely play it safe.

Fingers crossed next run, as for the item there’s a

Yeah, I’ve never had

Definitely up there for the most notes I’ve taken playing a game for a while, some of them aren’t immediately obvious though their usefulness

Finally got

The back story as I said is probably the thing that kept me going, not 100% there but I needed to know if my own theories were correct.

Edit, also

I did enjoy it and the underlying story kept me going, gotta say after playing it with my partner for a while, the rogue like elements started getting a little grating, especially if you’re looking for extremely specific rooms and get crap RNG (took like 12 days to get a

I know there are

Got tedious/frustrating at times but did overall enjoy it.

I got the dbrand grip for it with stick grips, it’s actually really nice to hold, certainly better than my switch lite (seriously that thing gives me RSI, really needed something to grip onto.) Which also has a kickstand attachment if you want. It’s overall though very comfortable, I find it better to hold up over propping it up with something, seems to keep it at a more natural angle for me.

I also switched to clicky buttons on mine, it’s definitely a preference but they feel better to me vs the stock ones on my partner’s.

Dd is a solid option, I’ve used to image emmc modules, make CD isos, clone drives etc., but Clonezilla is a great tool to have around and quite literally purpose built for cloning and imaging disks, that’s how I’d do it myself.

I swear I recall a “big picture mode” config in steam in the past but can’t seem to find that at all now either, sorry I don’t have an answer for you.

Morrowind (OpenMW) with Just good Morrowind it’s been a long time since I’ve done a full playthrough.

There’s a profile I tried on my desktop during update 8 that wasn’t terrible on an xbox controller, it’s surprisingly playable imo, works well with action groups, probably be way nicer on the deck with something like rotary menus on the trackpads and using the back buttons for modifiers.

I’d give it a try anyhow, just probably going to need some fiddling to get where you want.

I’m replaying through the Metroid Prime Trilogy again, primehack is amazing.

I don’t use mine much anymore but I still have it out, was a really cool idea and while it had a learning curve, definitely made controller gaming possible with a lot of titles, steam input in general these days is fantastic for that but even so I’d totally buy a steam deck layout steam controller v2.
