Well there ya go

Okay, that's an awesome name

In steam some games ran really poorly and washed out because hdr wasn't working. After some googling I found out that I'd probably have to run a gamescope command in the game's launch options, and more googling and trial and error to get that working and hdr sorta dialed in. It's good now, I get great performance and the hdr looks okay to my eyes, but it certainly didn't go as smoothly as when I played the same games on my steamdeck and they "just worked". Granted, I had the lcd one without hdr

I'm also interested in people's thoughts on this. Also compared to nobara? I'm on nobara now, and I'm happy with it but unfortunately it was enough work messing with gamescope and hdr settings that I couldn't recommend it to the non-tech savvy yet

For some reason it's only happened once though. Maybe valve doesn't want people to go crazy and break something with this Easter egg 🤔

Only read the headline, but can confirm: I just yeeted it across the room onto my bed and it let out a wilhelm scream

Damn I'm embarrassed by how long it took me to get that lol

Idk their comments read pretty neutral to me, I don't think they intended to do anything but frankly share their buying experience. But idk, I'm not a mind reader. Sorry about not getting in on that first batch, I get that's frustrating. For what it's worth, I doubt the shortage will last too long, it's my understanding that none of the individual components have supply issues. Mother's Day is out the window unfortunately but hopefully soon 🤞

Are they? Or are they just being frank?

Lol, why are you being downvoted?

Shoot I must've barely got it then. Personally I was selfishly DOS-attacking the continue button until the payment finally went through. I was clicking from about :05 to :25, probably several hundred times.

Forza 5 ran ok on my steam deck when I had it. I wasn't getting super high fps or anything, but it was stable, good enough to make the road my *removed* whenever I had a spare minute.

Hey it's been a long year

Honestly, somehow I thought that they already stopped making the lcd version, so this is news to me

Were you planning on fucking it? If so and if you can over your biases I'm inviting you over to my steamy controller orgy as soon as these puppies drop. We'll find out exactly what these touchpads are capable of

As someone who loved the *idea* of the original steam controller but found it uncomfortable to hold, the steam deck really does feel stellar in the hand. Most similar to an Xbox controller imo. So I for one am stoked that valve just deleted the screen for the new controller here

So you leave gyro on all the time in game? That's what I do, and I don't even move my whole arm really, just my fingers. I still use both joysticks. Gyro's almost like aim assist, but instead of some algorithm doing the fine adjustments it's my own muscle memory.

Finally. This should've been a thing from release
