Gonna check it out, thanks!
I’m looking for a game with realistic handling where I can race down some roads with traffic. Asseto corsa with mods is perfect but it won’t run on steam deck!
How’s the controller support? The steam verification doesn’t look promising
But you get it for free, I assume the costs are covered
It’s the same for my assignments lol
Because there’s still a strong football/soccer community there, along with Reddit
Sweden? I know VPNs tend to like Sweden from a privacy standpoint
Haha thanks for reading!
And yeah it took me a few tries to get into stardew. Mainly because I was playing a simple looking game on a beefy desktop pc, it didn’t sit right with me
The deck however, being in bed and playing stardew?? Hell yeah
Not every game is for everyone, if you don’t like it fair enough and move on! But I will say it gets very addicting once you’ve learned the game and played through the first “season”
They feel like a standard Xbox/PS4 controller to me, which feels good imo
They aren’t rattly or get stuck. The positioning of thumbsticks could be lower, and the L1/R1 could be easier to reach like a controller but nothing terrible
It’s a game that requires next to no focus to play. Perfect for putting on a podcast and relaxing. Probably best for those who enjoy driving. Not everyone’s cup of tea tho, I get that
As for the UI, if it’s like ets2, it’s dated but not too bad. It is an old but very good truck driving game
Especially after you configure it with control settings on the deck. It has native steam input support so all controls are configured on the deck menus itself.
It’s really easy, I have right touchpad for looking around and using the mouse in menus, and back paddles to signals, center camera and toggle lights
For some reason, I simply focus so much better when playing ets2 lool. I can’t listen to podcasts any other way, my mind always wonders
Started going through my backlog a couple months ago. I want to give all worthy games a chance, preferably complete before I think about buying another
Started by cutting out all the trash from my library, bringing it from 110 to about 30. I then used a decky plugin to split the games up into:
I will have max 1 story game in my “playing” group and a bunch of non story games when I want a relaxed, not mentally focused session
Dying light - on hold after ~10 hours
too scary and the strength and stamina of the guy is annoyingly low. The idea of playing it sounds really fun, so I’ll probably pick it back up when I feel like playing a scary game
stardew valley - completed main story/objective (the community center). Took me ~80 hours
the only game I’ve completed this year but I mean it when I say I loved that game. Couldn’t put it down, even played for 8 hours straight once; which is very rare for adult me. Only stopped playing because I felt burnt out after nearly 80 hours. There’s still content for me to get back to when I want
the Witcher 3 - currently my “in progress” major story game
About 10 hours into my second attempt at a playthrough. Wow what a game. No spoilers at all pls even if it’s something that happens at the start
Dishonoured - abandoned after 9 hours
It’s a fun game, the story is okay but it’s just not gripping me. It’s a meh game. I abandoned it when I realised I kept procrastinating it and moved onto the Witcher 3 (thank goodness I did!!). Small chance I try again in the future.
Bully - abandoned after 8 hours
This game did not age well at all.
Very fun idea but it’s too old to enjoy. Controls too clunky, missions are too basic, doesn’t run smoothly and just a bad experience overall. The missions are also very basic.
Some of the casual, short session games I currently have in the rotation:
Some games in my story Backlog (in no order):
I just realised I put so much effort into a comment no one will read 🙃 it’s too late to delete now, I ain’t getting my time back so neither are you ;)
Now im doubling down and giving all the info!! I’ve got nothing better to do (apart from the fact I should have been asleep 2 hours ago)

May aswell be a big red button saying “DO NOT PRESS”
Yup you’re correct. I don’t have any children, I do have loud siblings but they won’t come to me and disturb me lol
I do like to stay up but I end up “resting my eyes” and falling asleep with my phone not on charge hahaha
But then I have a free morning! Ive been awake since 7am on my phone and it’s now 10 30 and I’m still in bed, unbothered lol
Does jellyfin have console apps? PS4, Xbox etc
Can you cast from revanced to smart tube?
I had no idea this was eu specific…
It’s annoying because I use my car volume knob, and keep my phone at max volume. It’s a pain when I’m driving and it cuts down the volume due to “extended amount of time at high volume”
Samsung S10+, been on android my whole life. I think I will switch to iOS next. It looks very polished over there compared to apps on android being an afterthought
Definitely won’t get one for a few years yet, so hopefully it’ll have usb c
Like a long reflex action? Like when you touch a hot stove, you’ll automatically jerk out of the way
Your body can and will try to take over when life is on the line
What do you mean by that? Were you doing involuntary actions?
I tried the demo, and I’m gonna be honest it ain’t for me
The gameplay is fine, but it’s the UI, controls and stuff letting it down. Its not very polished. Probably just early stages of development.
I had a frustrating start, trying to drive a broken vehicle for about 10minutes. I even googled why I couldn’t start the engine. (No luck) Then I got out and saw the icon indicating broken car. Yeah it’s me being dumb but a well built game would think of this and help the player if they’re trying to start a broken car
I stopped playing after about 30mins, the initial frustration used up too much of my patience
I may give it another chance in about a year or so, when it’s more polished and maybe out of early access
Also some of the controller glyphs are quite difficult to see on the deck, looks all jagged
