steamdeck

Hello,...

I’m getting a 64gb steam deck probably next month. It will be used as a portable console and a desktop PC for work (desktop reliant websites). The most heavy game I’ll play is Stray (no 1st person shooters, MMOs or huge open worlds) with an hour or two of play time a day....

PC/Linux/Steam Noob here. I just got a game from GOG and I’m seeing tutorials mention Heroic, Lutris, and Wine via ProtonUp-QT as methods to get non-Steam games installed and running on Deck. Which method would you consider the easiest and most reliable for content from GOG, Ubisoft, Epic, etc…

Between the recent Steam sale and all the good bundles lately, I’m interested to see what everyone’s playing.

So, my personal experience of the installation is been a bit complicated by the tutorials i’ve find on YT. Basically I was stuck in the part where after the installation you need to change the directory (or add a new shortcut) for the launcher. Many video didn’t explain that or use a previous version of the OS with slightly...

So this is a very niche tool, but I thought I’d post about it in case it has uses elsewhere....

Title. I’m looking to add some new games to the library to play I honor of my favorite holiday. What are some of your favorites? Bonus points for hidden gems!

Excluding adding an external keyboard and mouse, what quality of life changes can be made to the deck to make keyboard and mouse work less terrible?

In case anyone’s having connectivity issues like I was, I thought I’d share what fixed it for me....

I purchased a brand new Xbox wireless controller. It paired with my steam deck easily but it will not connect and the “X” button on the controller keeps flashing. I’ve hit every button on the controller and can’t get it to actually connect. I’ve also rebooted the steam deck....

I’m currently looking for another controller for the deck. Reddit threads and some articles usually mention Dualsense, Dualshock4, 8bitdo Ultimate and XBox controllers....

I just ordered a refurbished steam deck :D...

Hello everyone!...

Just a public PSA and was a little sad. I thought the latest kernel updates would address this. Until then, when you plug the official Xbox Wireless USB in- nothing happens....

I got my Steam Deck 3 days ago and I just started exploring it. Given that I already have a large library of games on Epic Games, one of the first thing I did was installing the Heroic launcher. It worked well for some of the games (and not for others… like Hyper Light Drifter ;_; if someone knows how to configure it please...

Sorry if this is the wrong place for this I just figured maybe someone has experience with launching a non-steam game as a steam game through launch options....

As per title....

Hi guys! Just wondering…did your decks touchpad sensitivity go completely bonkers on your last update? Now it’s registering everything as clicks or drags, you need to almost hover your finger over the touchpad so it doesn’t register it as a click…Any ideas?

Was wondering what the status of everyone’s OLED order is. When did you place your order and what is the current status of it?

Got the email a few mins ago and it’s already sold out. I doubt the interest was that much, did anyone here snag one?

Now that I have my new Oled, I’m wondering what would be good video settings for BG3. I can set the preset to ultra and it seems to offer no performance problem, but I wonder if vsync fsr2 etc should be set? How can I get the most amazing BG3 setup?

I think it feels even better than original. Soft smooth finish 😌...
