If you run the install script it will let you uninstall Decky but leave your config/plugins intact. Then after you’re done testing you can run the installer again to have everything back how it was before.
Not officially listed on the patch notes. I’m on beta updates though and I’m not having that issue, so maybe it’s been fixed?
If you have Decky plugins installed it may be worth trying disabling them or uninstalling any you don’t use. I’ve noticed some issues with recent steam updates and some plugins, and it might be causing you issues.
MageQuit sounded interesting, so I went to add it to my wishlist… and it turns out I already own it somehow. Now just to figure out best way to get it for my friend group.
Great writeup as usual, lot of emulation/retro hardware related news this week!
I hope the switch emulator scene smooths out soon, but I expect it will stay pretty rough until the switch 2 has released and reached a decent install base. Hopefully once it’s an established success nintendo will calm down a little and we’ll see some consistent options show back up.
I’m looking forward to playing through the DS Castlevania games, I’ve avoided emulating them because I didn’t want to deal with the touch control parts.
Oh man I completely misread what game you were playing lol.
If you likes Outer Wilds, you should also try playing the Forgotten City sometime.
There are a couple other good knowledge progression games, although they’re not as close to the formula as Forgotten City is. Both the Witness and Return of the Obra Dinn have some overlap with it.
The main new game I’ve started recently is Split Fiction, which is the new coop game from the devs of “It Takes Two”. I highly recommend it if you have a coop partner, the game is delightful and you only need one copy for two people.
Some other games I’ve played recently: Finally finished Metaphor Refantazio. I had to take a break from it after about 100 hours because (which is pretty normal for me with long games), but I just came back and finished it. Really great game, highly recommend it on Deck. Also been playing Lost Judgement, which is a Yakuza style game but with a detective focus. Finally I’ve been playing Rift of the Necrodancer, which is a lot of fun but hurts my brain.
I looked at your screenshot, but didn’t even notice that until you pointed it out.
Once you take a screenshot, you can open the steam menu and go to media. Click on the screenshot there, and then hit the share button. There’s a couple handy options there, but if you have the steam mobile app you can send the screenshot straight to your phone.
“Sorry I got rid of windows 10 years ago. I can help you install win 7 but nothing newer than that”
That’s fair, although my Acheron is holding on pretty well so far. If Cipher lets her ult almost twice as often I think she’ll go right back to the top.
I was wanting to pull for her already for story reasons, but I had to skip Sunday and I wxpect she’ll be bad without him.
But that passive is pretty strong, so I’m left unsure on what to do. It’s definitely concerning power creep though.
Edit: oh, and the upcoming Cipher sounds like she might be another Jiaoqiu level boost for Acheron, so I should probably just save up to guarantee I can pull her.
Or new incognito window.
That’s a pretty cool idea
It’s been a pretty great deck experience so far. When a friend told me I should try it back during 1.2 I didn’t realize how much it would hook me.
What’s your opinion on the whole global passive controversy?
The battery was the biggest change for me. The more demanding deck games going from 1.5 hours of battery life to 2.5 hours was incredible.
That was really fast. I don’t know exactly when they opened up sales for them, but I figured we’d have more time than that.
Edit they’re still showing up as available for me, I’ve checked on a few devices. They’re either going in and out of stock, or have limited regional availability.
Unironically I wouldn’t be surprised if some version of automated AI commentary becomes a thing at some point. I can imagine some people wanting to simulate having viewers who care about what they’re playing, I’ve already seen kids talking to themselves while playing pretending they’re a streamer.
