“After dozens of hours on just Steam Deck, Starfield feels good in some parts, but really struggles in the bigger cities. Turning everything to low and enabling FSR2 is basically the only way to play it right now on Valve’s handheld, and even that drops to 20fps often in the first major city (New Atlantis). The game itself...

The next patch for Baldur’s Gate 3 is supposed to include a lot of performance improvements, especially for Act 3. I know I’ve seen complaints in this community that the game runs too rough in act 3 on Deck to be a good experience, so this should be great news for people....

While it’s great news that Bethesda is making an effort to make sure Starfield will run on Deck, I’d still like to recommend that most people wait for performance reports before buying and expecting a good experience.

Here’s something interesting for you. Valve released a fresh upgrade for the Steam Deck OS now in Beta, including a fix for an upcoming game....

Dock is styled after the SNES, and includes the following ports:...

I’ve been driving myself crazy trying to get the Epic Games version of Star Wars Battlefront II working on the deck with no success. I’ve tried Lutris with the script that can be found on the Lutris website as well as installing the EA app directly. Always ends up with an error in the EA app before signing in or in Origin...

The true number of playable games is of course much higher, but this is still an impressive milestone....

Battery tracker is a new plugin that seems pretty useful. Gives a chart of tracked battery levels, but more importantly it tracks the average power draw of the different games you run....

The game runs well on Steam Deck and hits playable framerates at all settings except maximum.

Roblox updated their client some months back, and the anticheat didn’t work with Linux at all. However, it looks like they’re working on fixing this and the game is now playable on their very early access “zcanary” builds....

An alternative SteamOS-like distro built on Fedora for Steam Deck and Desktop

New update adds controller support, fixes performance problems in some areas, and added some other new content. The game is now Steam Deck Verified....

The 256GB and 512GB Steam Decks come with some digital rewards, such as an exclusive steam profile customization bundle and a unique virtual keyboard (keyboard is 512GB only). Previously these rewards were not available to refurbished deck buyers, but Valve plans to change that and make these rewards available regardless of...

Glad co-op is finally here, going to get some good use out of my dock.

ProtonDB now has separate tabs for easier browsing of Steam Deck or PC reports. You can also view a combined tab that includes reports from both....

From Martin Wimpress:...

Hey Steam Deckers, I didn’t know there was a bigger Steam Deck community. So I’m sharing my post from the other one: lemmy.world/post/2888070...

TL;DR: Steam briefly showed options to buy refurbished Steam Decks for the following prices:...

I found that if I hold the steam deck using my fingers and upper palm high on the deck, it creates less strain. This means my palms can’t rest on the lower half. Would this grip make it better to hold so I can rest my lower palms on something?
