I've run into a single issue that I found a note: if multiple people are playing the same game, and that game uses cloud saves, and writes saves to a specific place in the home folder, and that place is not scoped to your steam user, it's possible to see and overwrite each other's save games, which can result in your cloud saves getting stomped by each other.

Touchpad menus, left one as a simple click-to-select with a display of a numpad

It's probably something like a Nexdock or similar. I've got one from Dopesplay for example - Easier if you look it up, but basically it's a laptop with no brains that just acts as a dock for other devices

I'm playing Tomodachi Life: Living the Dream with my spouse! We're playing dollies with our D&D characters lmao

I use it in mouse and keyboard only games for rotary and square menus for things like hot bar keys or f1-f12 and the like. Really came in handy for finishing my first playthrough of Dyson Sphere Program.

Without knowing how you approached it, it's really hard to say why you might not have liked it. All of my friends that liked it were d&d players and treated it like a d&d campaign, where you try to make choices that a particular character would make, instead of just playing as yourself. That on top of enjoying all the little things the developers thought up, and trying to explore all the companion story routes. Crazy ways your act 1 decisions impact the content of the end game - like saving the gnome from the windmill leading to detailed interactions in acts 2 and 3 that wouldn't be possible at all if you don't save him.

Or stuff like knocking a giant spider into the under dark during a hidden fight in a cave under a blacksmith house, then later on realizing you can use a mushroom guy's "raise a corpse as a minion" power to have a huge undead pet spider for a while in the under dark.

There are entire voice acted scenes that 0.001% of players will see because they managed to meet 8 different sets of increasingly unlikely criteria. I dunno, there's just a depth to the game that made it feel like playing D&D with a skilled dungeon master, and I found it lovely.

I played through it 7 times (neutral playthrough, good guy paladin playthrough, dark urge indulgent, dark urge good guy, dark urge starts bad becomes good, drow minthara romance, succubus bard build who just charms her way into winning) before I eventually managed to get tired of it back in early 2024.

I've recently gotten back into it, planning to play an "evil but hides it and betrays everyone" character this time lol

I think it's just a part of the system updates
