Valve introduces Steam Deck

[Dr. Geronimo]

Can you play steam games offline on the steam deck? Is it worth it if I already have a PSP?

Edit: Holy shit! I might buy one.

Are you just hearing about the deck? I wouldn't say it's a good psp replacement on account of the massive size.

I heard some rumblings 3 years ago, but first time seeing specific details.

More GameCube games are being added to the downloads list for the Steam Deck

Steam needs to ramp up production...again. I want one of these faster.

 

[Milwaukee Macho Man]

I dunno, thought this was cool

...huh. Steam Deck keyboard skins can be bought with Steam Points.

So you have to spent points just to change some colors?

 

[SSj_Ness (Yiffed)]

Are those points ever useful? They should work like eShop Gold Coins.

No. They're only good for buying cosmetic stuff and emotes.

you can use them to give clown awards to posts you don't like

 

[Dr. Geronimo]

Lol what was the point of even staggering shipments?

Edit: false alarm. Can't link right now but Valve employee confirms that this was a glitch.

The rollout of the Deck is a bit ridiculous. Looks like I'll wait until there's a gen 2 of the system.

And then by the time your place in the queue comes up the gen3 will be out lmao

The steam deck is a liberal conspiracy.

 

[Dr. Geronimo]

Okay so after playing around with it a bit I don't really have much to say that hasn't already been said before.

The only thing I want to say is that Linus is a fucking faggot liar about the speakers on this thing. They're quiet as fuck. @Dixieland Buckaroo is your unit loud at max volume?

Bumping the thread for the latest changes to the Steam Deck:

 

[SSj_Ness (Yiffed)]

Major cope, but at least it'll be a well optimized device by the time I get my hands on it.

Right now the only major beef I have with it software wise is the fact that it takes forever to launch a game while offline. Drives me crazy because it happens with non steam games too. I don't get why steam needs to dick around for almost a minute when I just want to launch yuzu.

Can the steam deck run Monster Girl Quest? Asking for a friend haha

Valve Steam Deck Dock was delayed to production issues.

The company says the delay is "due to parts shortages and COVID closures at our manufacturing facilities," but adds that actual Steam Deck units will not be affected by these issues. Valve previously said it hoped to have the official dock available in late spring, but it seems that plan won't come to fruition.

 

[SSj_Ness (Yiffed)]

I read that wrong and was, in a word, displeased.

 

[Dr. Geronimo]

Since the Deck Dock got delayed, just as a heads up I've been using this one since the brit on Digital Foundry recommended it. Costs $30 and works for what I need. Brand is UtechSmart and they have different ones. You can find it on amazon
