Is 70 the new normal then? Was all that theater just to make the <80 price tag seem better?

Seems like a handy tool.

Hmm, maybe it's just on my instance, or maybe the app I'm using... 🤷‍♂️ (Slrpnk.net and Summit, respectively)

This was enjoyable to browse through, and great job on the formatting too. Thanks for posting!

(The preview picture for that zine seems to be broken btw)

Certainly not the first by any means, but I was really impressed with the way that the Ori games handled diving. The omni-directional controls are 🤌

That's awesome, thanks for sharing!

I'll be honest, I couldn't get into it much myself for some reason but I know that it's pretty well regarded anyway. Keep us updated, if you'd like.

Good, then it should die

Yeah, I didn't like the shape/feel of the stock sticks either. I never really had any problems with sick drift or anything, but I also didn't actually own the system for very long either.

To remedy this, I had actually bought some stick caps from skull & co (per recommendations from people on here actually) and they were quite excellent.

Personally, I didn't like physically holding the steam deck. In my opinion, it's much too heavy/bulky and even with a high quality comfort grip It just wasn't working for me. Ultimately, I ended up going with an Ayn Odin 2 instead and I've been enjoying my portable/lounging game time much more now. I do miss the ability to play my steam library though. Even though I can still do this with streaming, I just don't like streaming games as much. Other than the weight/size/ergonomics, which most people seem to be just fine with, the only other thing I'd mention is that steam's UI is buggy as hell when you're browsing around the store. I ended up doing most of my browsing on desktop as a result.

All that being said, you can't deny the draw of it. Even though it wasn't for me personally, I still like the system and I'd still recommend it to pretty much anybody. There's a reason Steam Deck is the champ.

Also, look up retro game corp if you aren't familiar. He just released a video today called 'dude, just get a steam deck'

I feel like if it drops that much in one year, it's probably a pretty shit game anyway right?

Ha! That's good shit. Thanks buddy :)

Link?

Bro, the internet doesn't forget.
