I love my Steam Decks (LCD & OLED), and as far as handhelds, won’t buy any more until SD2. I’d much rather see the Deckard released before SD2 to be honest, though my Index headset might be fine, the controllers are kind of fubar. I’ll support Linux hardware over anything Microsoft, or closed platforms.

This looks pretty good. Hope the game-play lives up to its looks.

The US courts gave corporations person-hood, AI just around the corner.

Sounds like fun, will check it out.

How about we don’t bring back corporal punishment. I get the sentiment, but i’d rather our justice system didn’t turn into a torture system.

Stillsuits incoming.

Omg i hate choice in the marketplace, gimme good old fashioned monopoly any day. /s

Sounds great.

People leave one shit hole corporate dystopia for another and think things are going to change.

Good thing i’m Canadian then, lol.

All bootloaders should be able to be unlocked and able to install the OS of your choice. Also you should be able to choose whatever app store you want. It is your hardware, you payed for it.

Well there are no operating systems that you can install and forget, unless they never plan to go online with the machine. They all need updating which can be set automatically. The only problem is if it requires manual intervention, sometimes updates don’t go as planned, then a roll-back might be necessary. They could try an immutable linux distribution if they are worried about screwing up their installs or something. Fedora kinoite may be their thing, or Bazzite which is based on that.

We’re talking about a Scientologist here, not exactly known for their freedom loving ways.

It does feel better on the SteamDeck.

I’ve played it. Artwork is beautiful, but controls are wonky, hard to get used to on PC, and the gameplay unnecessarily punishing. It doesn’t feel good to play.

Maybe they should take the feedback from reviews and incorporate that into their updates. It’s not just that you are being review bombed by unreasonable people, it’s that people feel the game has problems that aren’t being addressed. I agree it is difficult to recover from a bad release because first impressions are everything. Companies can recover and have, take No Man’s Sky for an example.

When you install Bazzite you select the video card you are using and it will give you the drivers needed for that card.

I was able to play the introduction but as soon as it tries to log onto the server i get a BattleEye didn’t load properly restart client. Ohwell, maybe they’ll enable it one day for linux users, until then refund requested.

I think i’ll be heading back to Pop!_OS for my main rig. While i like Bazzite, i can’t get VR to function on it, or get my 5.1 surround sound system working. I think it’s great for a hand held, but not for a main rig.

Glad i already built a system and don’t have to worry for a few years about upgrades unless something breaks. Also i’m Canadian so our tariff dispositions may be different.
