Annie, BioShock is like…one of the greatest games ever made!!!

You absolutely have to play that, the setting is just such beauty!!!

Thank you!!!

I keep getting to the end of each ‘spot’ I pick to travel to and think okay, back to real life now! then I run a poll on Mastodon or something and just run away. It’s terrible adulting, but it’s rather lovely escapism. Thanks for saying so :)

And - such thanks for appreciating these. I get turned into a odd bundle of nerves each time - it’s something silly like wondering if what I find interesting others will roll their eyes at, but seeing discussions happen around games, and finding the different kind of news most places ignore? Makes me so happy!!!

THANK YOU!

I’m so glad you’ve been enjoying it!

I’m now on my second play-through of it, and I’m just spending all my time delivering boxes and getting those stars. I love how in one moment I’m just happily admiring the beautiful landscape and climbing a mountain side, then when I do a story mission things go from 0 to 1,000 in a heartbeat.

Typical Kojima, and that’s why I love it. I’m so glad you’re having fun! It’s a very divisive game :)

Oh this is so lovely!

I’m so glad you’re making the most of your Steam Deck, now next up you can look at installing my friend’s project: RetroDECK on your Steam Deck to emulate all the games from the older years! (and if you need any pointers or help doing it, reach out to me!)

I find the same thing with GOG games, and I tend to find myself checking the ‘details’ section of a game’s page to see if it has built-in controller support before buying these days, because my Deck is used mostly for GOG titles :)

Since there’s now ten of them, I figured it’s just easier for someone who is curious to click on my profile and sort by ‘posts’

Oh that’s so sweet of you!!!

Thanks, I’m glad you find my nonsense I share fun! :)

Frendica is one of the few I haven’t actually checked out (yet), but maybe one day I’ll make an acc there too!

Thanks! I edited the link, I’m not sure how I messed that up!!!

My friend makes RetroDECK! Isn’t it lovely? Its crazy to me how the default emulation for the Steam Deck seems to just be EmuDeck. To me it is the far weaker of the two options.

I enjoyed how Russ (RGC on YouTube) recently made an in-depth video recently showing the differences between them, then how to install and run RetroDECK (the link to which is here if anyone wants to see it!)

Lazorne, I known you’re around here somewhere plotting what’s next for RetroDECK!

I hope your recovery from surgery goes well. I’ll be thinking of you, those things can suck all the easy and spark from life, I’m so glad you’ve got your gaming to escape to!

And don’t force Death Stranding if its not fun! Give it some time :)

I’ve been trying soooo hard to stop myself jumping from game to game!

I’ve been stuck solidly on Death Stranding for a few weeks now (on my Steam Deck), so…so far so good!

This is the best

And yes, I finally posted another just an hour or so ago! (sorry it took me a few extra days!)

Thanks for saying so!

Everyone tells me that Split Fiction is amazing, and from the trailer and gushing reviews - it seems like a rare bright spark in gaming lately :)

I’m 100% with you on Denuvo - I think I cut every game out which has that, but it’s an easy task since I have around 40-odd games on Steam and a lot on GOG, so the hard work is done for me!!!

I remember playing Persona 5 on Game Pass some years ago and loving it!

The amount of the modern retro gaming handhelds is staggering. One company (its joked) seems to announce one each week!

But its nice that it gives people an option to play the old games without the old headaches. Modern IPS and OLED displays, save states and customizable community make OS builds mean there’s just a myriad of options now :)

Thank you so much!!!

9 of these so far, and it seems like I’m averaging every…3/4 days. Which sounds unhealthy when I see it in black and white -__-

(I keep promising everyone and myself that these will be one-per-week, but so far? I can’t stop mysefl!)

Thanks for taking the time to leave a comment! Always makes me smile seeing someone enjoyed these!!!

The STEAM button + R1!

Though I use the plugin from Decky called ‘shotty’ with the same hotkeys- it lets me take screenshots inside non-Steam games, which is the vast, vast bulk of my games library (GOG)

Oh no! How’d it happen?

With you RMA it? Or iFixit the screen yourself? I’m sorry to hear, that’s sad news.

If you have a dock, at least you can still use it that way I suppose!

How did you find Citizen Sleeper? Enjoying it?

For some reason I got obsessed with that, but the recent sequel which by all accounts fixed any issue and should be better…just didn’t grab me.

From the developer:

“The open source version will remain and the Gog extension people have already paid for will continue to work. Nothing will be taken away. Nothing will be broken intentionally, that’s not how we roll.”
