Definitely, even better if you can try during a free weekend or get it half price on a sale.
Amazing with friends, on your own or with randos.
So many organic ways to interact and communicate with other players. Seriously cool, unique and worthwhile experience.
Sea of Thieves.
There has never and will never be any pay to win. Everyone has access to all weapons at any time, no unlocking, just pure skill.
Up to 4 players on your team (ship) open servers with other players all sailing around all the time. You can get in an organic fight over treasure, or matchmake for ranked battles.
All of the progression is cosmetic based.
The devs have been adding content constantly since launch that fleshes out the game systems and makes for more interesting interaction.
I come back to this game all the time. Highly recommend.
HelloChinese for Mandarin
Viture Pro XR Headset.
Plug this puppy into the deck and have a massive virtual 1080p 120hz screen projected into your field of view.
I use it daily and couldn’t be happier with it.
…We’ve all been doing that for years.
Snowden implicated Google and Apple in 2013.
So does ChatGPT, and I can’t run that offline…
Only way to install it with support for port forwarding on Fedora Atomic spins.
Add the rpm from protons website then rpm-ostree install package name.
This is one of the situations where layering packages is appropriate.
Signal Private Messenger is free open source, works on everything. Your grandma could use this.
I have slowly migrated all of my friends and family to this over the last few years.
All of the big ‘encrypted’ messengers like WhatsApp or Facebook Messenger use the Signal Protocol under the hood but insert their own shady business and tracking defeating a lot of the purpose.
There are other perhaps more anonymous options like SimpleX or XMRchat but they are not practical nor needed for most threat models.
Matrix is not quite mature enough but is a better option than discord for gaming communities.
Signal everyday. I would not recommend Telegram. DYOR.
My APAP machine has a sim card and unless I am careful to not disable airplane mode every time I start it up, it will send all of my health data to company that I have signed no agreement with.
I explicitly declined to agree to the privacy policy of the company that sold it to me.
If I find my data in a breach, lawyers will be involved.
I picked up Persona 5 Royale during the sale for 30 bucks.
I was a huge fan of P4G on the PSVita.
P5R is so stylish and it does such a great job of speeding up so much of tedium by allowing fast travel to most places.
Everything feels so snappy, the soundtrack is killer, the gameplay is fun. Runs like a dream on the OLEDeck. I’ve been enjoying taking it slow and getting to know the characters. Just finished the first palace.
That’s how aether works kind of.
It’s P2P/decentralised rather than federated.
Anyone can make a community. With enough participation in a community one can become a mod. Mods can be impeached by vote of active participants.
Anyone can see nod actions and anyone can decide to disable the actions of any mod.
I love the system, I was active there before moving to Lemmy. I wish it had taken off/absorbed some of the Reddit fallout rather than Lemmy.
AFAIK it is not maintained or at least updated much less frequently than Lemmy/ActivityPub.
I need to find a way to tell Wayland to launch the ereader part of calibre flipped 90° so that I can use my SteamDeck as a tablet for book reading.
I’m holding my breath for Deadlock to bring my MOBA and shooter field groups together.
I got back to Grim Dawn all the time.
I’m excited for Fangs of Asterkarn!
Nexus Mods is working on an AppImage version of their mod manager that works perfectly in my testing.
Currently it only supports Stardew Valley and Cyberpunk i think.
I’m excited for it to have parity with Windows Vortex.
There’s a decky plugin that let’s you toggle an OLED black screen with a two button shortcut.
Highly recommend.
I sold my switch as soon as the original SD was announced. Just got my OLED in the mail and couldn’t be happier; easily the best console experience I’ve ever had.

The release order does the best job of revealing information in an entertaining way. You can safely just watch cut scenes for the non numbers games (1.5, 2.5 and 3 are mainline most important)
For me playing through is a big nostalgia trip. The writing isn’t great and the gameplay in Chain of Memories is extremely annoying for the first few hours but I am happy to be able to go hang with all of the Disney characters I did when I was a kid and I finally get to play KH3!!!
