KotActually, do games w Steam Deck / Gaming News #17

Absolutely love these posts. Look forward to it each week! I’m really curious to watch SteamOS grow into something bigger for desktops someday.

While many of us would probably go to a more specific Linux Distro, having the option for the average user to move away from Windows (especially in a less intimidating or familiar fashion) is a big step forward.

Does Portal 2 count…?

I remember enjoying Left 4 Dead back in the day.

Steamdeck is better than the Switch or Switch 2, from pretty much every objective measure.

You can even get a switch emulator in your steam deck.

If you already have a gaming pc you could get a phone controller grip and use the steam link app.

I’m using a bracket for my xbox controller that way I keep the same comfort. Most phones have oled screens and a high ppi so it can look pretty nice.

It opens steam in big picture mode all ready, and since it’s on a pc you can run the games at max quality.

Goretantath,

Latency is the big issue for me so i’d rather play the game directly on the device the screens hooked to.

The trick was to swap them so no one knew why the remote would die all of a sudden

Lost woods.

Honestly anything from OoT, but Lost Woods, Kakariko Villiage, and Gerudo Valley in particular are ingrained into my gray matter.

This game was so much fun! There were moments when I was struggling not to die laughing. One of those moments that are unrepeatable.

Or do. Improve on yourself and don’t get stuck in a meta.

Also your bot forget to add the body.

Primax,

I actually added the url from imgur, and it seems to have deleted it or died somehow? It says it failed to upload, but I saw it on their site… weird.

fxomt,

Try reuploading to catbox.moe or postimages.org

It’s an old one, but the Outrun soundtrack was proper catchy.

RizzRustbolt,

Splash Wave, Passing Breeze, or Magical Sound Shower?

@edgemaster72@lemmy.world avatar

I go by what I think would look better. Top one being a mine would look better imo, so I would flag it and click the one below it.

MintyAnt,

Solid approach. BOOM!!

Brain hack: Go stare at a wall for 5-10 minutes and try again, repeat until the game/activity seems fun. Your brain will start to crave any stimulation when faced with unbearable boredom.

Note: This may cause emotions you were suppressing to surface in the absence of stimulation, which will likely be uncomfortable, but also might be the reason you were struggling to enjoy things in the first place.

renamon_silver,

Why not just take a walk outside instead of bending over backwards to enjoy computer?

winkerjadams,

Its 4am and its dark out there

sbv, do games w What level of interest do you have in "empire building" location based games?

When you’re saying “real world” you mean mobile devices where your actual position dictates your position in the game world, right?

I really like the idea of these. Ingress started out cool, but didn’t hold my interest. I think the actual play loop kinda sucked, but it built up a decent community around the novelty.

@PillowTalk420@lemmy.world avatar

I want to encounter other players and have actual combat but there are apparently laws against that.

sbv,

just call it Boxing 2.0. It’ll be fine.

Quetzalcutlass, (edited )

I think dueling is still technically legal in a few places.

sbv,

This is starting to signs pretty awesome, tbh.

It’s like Uber, but for random violence.

@douglasg14b@lemmy.world avatar

Yeah, location based as in you and the objects in the game are based on real world coordinates. The “grid” for the game is overlayed onto the real world

Same ingress lost its appeal after a while. The gameplay loop was shallow and repetitive. It was based around rather fast gameplay loops, that would resolve, and then you rinse and repeat.

I made some cool friends though, it was cool to meet people at capture points.

I’m aiming for much MUCH more depth here. Fundamentally different from ingress of similar games, aside from being location based. More industry and exploration, with a more typical loop around economy, growth, and advancement.

sbv,

Cool! Good luck with it. It sounds like a fun project.
