I’m all for competition and against forced DRM. But the PC gaming service ʀᴇᴅᴀᴄᴛᴇᴅ that you’re referring to offers genuinely good services on top of just accessing games - social platform, (voice) chat, remote play (together), streaming video to friends, communities, easy access to mods, linux support, makes multiplayer easy, etc…

I have not tested them on the Deck, but the We Were Here series of games is great two-player puzzle-solving fun. At least the latest titles are Deck-verified, not sure about the older ones. You can play them in any order you wish - although I’d leave Forever as the last one to be played.

It Takes Two is another brilliant two-player adventure puzzle game. Only one person needs to buy it, the other can download the friend pass to play (although you cannot get achievements without buying the game).

Don’t be capping, mf still has the skibidi rizz. fr fr

Just finished the visual novel ISLAND, read on the Deck for the most part.

Next in line would be finally continuing with Pocket Mirror. Afterwards, looking forward to buying Dredge.

As I mentioned in the previous comment, Carla isn’t cutting it - not stable enough in my experience.

I never noticed the daughter in the background.

Phenomenal game - dare I say the best two-player co-op game I’ve ever played.

I’d love to, but I am too dependent on my VST Plug-in library on Reaper. Running them through Wine/Carla doesn’t cut it.

I played with the idea of getting a Mac for music production, and installing a Linux distro on my desktop for gaming and video editing. But I couldn’t really justify dropping 1000-2000€ on a laptop with inferior performance to my desktop.
Looked into used specimen, but getting a 3-year old model only gets you a couple more years of software support.

So Windows 11 with a local account and many policy modifications it is.

I think the official translations have pretty much only targeted PC/PS4/XBox. Pretty sure there are also no fan ports on the Vita.

For the best experience, playing on PC via Steam is the ideal setup - that way you can also install fan patches by Comittee of Zero, because the official translations have some continuity issues (along with untranslated backgrounds, typos etc.)

Anonymous;Code has been sitting in my library for too long, I really want to get started on it already! Sci;Adv is my favourite VN series.

Anyway, I started this cutesy-looking visual novel “Island” last week. I’m sure nothing bad or unexpected will happen in this story.

I haven’t gotten started on it yet, but “You and Me and Her” seems to be a common recommendation for fans of DDLC.

Cool!! What are you baking?

Fixed that one for you.

Handholding something something Outer Wilds recommendation.

It’s gotta be Penumbra: The Black Plague and Amnesia: The Dark Descent back when I played them 12 years ago. Not many games have created the same amount of tension for me while playing.

I’m so glad Valve did not give in to the tech-number-nerds who want 2K resolution on tiny screens, saves so much battery life.

Same goes for XBox, also the Steam Deck.

I’m done fiddling with software and want stuff that works without much hassle. Unraid is super easy, I am in the process of building a home server with it, similar setup to OP.

I plan on moving my media files to the server through my LAN via FreeFileSync.

Fan projects or mods should be never pre-announced, just released once they’re ready. Once it’s out there the big companies can’t stop it.

OP is already using one based on the post text.

Hello, fellow IT person. One day we will need the VGA cables we have saved.
