DrDamn 18%! Though 82% is Unknown rather than Unsupported. Strangely Portal 2 is Verified and Portal 1 is Unknown. There are ways in Firefox (at least) to browse the Steam Store and pretend to be a Steamdeck so it shows you this info too.
Gordon First shipments are on the way now. Gabe Newell personally delivered some : https://www.videogameschronicle.com/news/gabe-newell-spotted-hand-delivering-steam-decks/ I wonder what “after Q2” actually translates to.
Gordon Having read quite a lot of impressions now these are out in the wild, I’m thinking I may hold off for now. Seems fan noise is loud and distracting when playing anything remotely demanding. Hardly surprising but my main uses would be on sofa while telly is otherwise engaged or in bed, and a loud fan isn’t going to work in those situations.
Gordon Brave Oh I still want one. Just don’t think I can justify the money for something that might not get much use right now. I’ll see how I feel when the email from Valve arrives.
Deej My payment has failed to go through twice. My sensible head says to just forget it as I’ve probably got a better use for the money these days 😆
Brave Deej I had that issue, glad I’m not the only one. Had to use a different card. Was it a Visa card by any chance? It was for me. Just wondering if there are ongoing issues between them and the various payment processors.
Deej Brave It was Visa actually. I might try another card - see how I’m thinking tomorrow before my time runs out.
Gordon Still not sure what to do with my order. They’re saying July-September now though so I’ve got time.
Deej I didn’t go ahead with mine in the end. I went the sensible route and prioritised the money for other things 🙂 Looking forward to your views on it!!
Brave First impressions before turning the thing on are: man that case is top notch, and the deck itself is sturdy . Very good build quality.
Gordon Brave So you’re now going to leave it sitting in the box for 6 weeks before you set it up, right?
Jogort Brave How do you find the face buttons to use? seems strange having the controls at the top and the B button looks like it’s falling off the edge
Brave Gordon 😄 Ohhh you know me. I can always wait… 🤞 I’m already playing NMS (the new expedition has just started) while I wait for Elden Ring to download. It’s really fucking cool.
Brave These are straight screens from no man’s sky. It’s pretty bloody impressive. The switch version ain’t gonna be like this.
