Can you highlight where you link this steam deck advice? There are no references to steam, steamdeck or linux in the article, and the only links are to the projects websites. Do they have a steamdeck guide?
EDIT: They have a steam deck installer on this page with the others:
Marketing weirdly effective, for one. They pump a large portion of their budgets into hype and they make just enough back to keep going. It’s like the same people who watch an ad for a fast food place and go even though it’s never as advertised.
And most isn’t direct marketing. They very much pay influencers to buy this slop and worse. You pay a half million to a guy to make something look popular and it becomes popular. It’s very annoying.
I’ve been playing with zomboid for over 10 years!!! Amazing that this is picking up so much steam after being so ‘mature’ already! But loving the preview builds!
Does it have a HDMI port to connect to a TV? Since it’s Android, I suppose pairing a new controller would be easy, so stuff you emulate from home consoles can be played with 2-4 people
No HDMI port but does support video over its USB c connector and full support for multiple controllers. Most handhelds that start around probably $150 and are android based will most likely have this functionality as well.
I’m so happy we’re finally getting a handheld that’s genuinely portable! I watched a disassembly video and really appreciate that the battery isn’t glued down, too. And have you all seen gameplay videos? Ocarina of Time 3D at 7x native resolution looks about as close to those Unreal 5 Zelda tech demos as we’ll likely ever get.
I skipped the Nintendo Switch line, but I’d eventually pick the Thor up to replace my 3DS. (If I don’t hold out for an Ayn Freya 😅 .)
Gaming and streaming? No idea. I’ve been on a 5G hotspot for two years at this point, and it acquits itself well enough. Generally 150-450mbps. At no point have I thought “this cheaper thing simply isn’t serving my needs.”
But I can’t hit the broadside of a barn in a shooting game. Seriously, while still on a landline, my college roommate bought me Red Dead Redemption 2, and the first task was to shoot the broadside of a barn, which I could not do.
Thankfully, he views that story as being recompense for his financial outlay. I mean, I’d never played a shooting game.
If it is not a direct fiber connection the I would not use it unless it’s the last resort.
If by streaming, you mean that you will be streaming content, then it will likely be terrible as the dropped packets will cause stutters in your video.
I imagine a secular connection will drop significantly more packets due to environmental interference that fiber and Ethernet is not really subject to.
In the first game: John’s last stand. The first time I felt a game ever said to me: “You did everything right, but it’s still not going to go your way.”
In the second game: the cough in the beginning. I had done a report on the mythos of the wild West while in highschool and knew exactly what was happening when it did.
