For keyboards, 60% layouts can be bought prebuilt. If you want something smaller than that then you’re likely looking at DIY build territory or maybe a one handed gaming keyboard.

For a mouse, you can get really tiny portable mice that are low weight. If you want something that doesn’t tie you down to finding desk space, then you can look at trackball mice (fine for strategy games, not great for FPS).

Arch BTW?

PEGI 18 for gambling imagery 😐

What a non-story. Reporting on “the concept of an idea”. Let me know when something is cooking. Not interested in hearing that some people are thinking about maybe conceiving something in the future.

I love my Deck.

If you’re interested in higher performance, have a use case for a desktop, are willing to go for used parts you put together yourself; then you could get a really decent performance PC for the price of a Deck.

Sorry for the loss OP.

Maybe not what you want to hear right now, but I’m really glad Steam cloud minimises the impact of a loss. When I had a Nintendo Switch I was terrified of losing hundreds of hours of Dead Cells or Enter the Gungeon progress. Losing a Deck is obviously a financial loss (and the emotional attachment of someone special giving you yours), but at least there isn’t insult to add to the injury the way Nintendo would do.

Space cadet pinball can be installed on any system you have and is still a blast to play.

I got banned back in the day as well. They said I was cheating. Lost everything I had unlocked. Ditched the game right there.

The form factor advantage of the Switch comes from its trash controller. When I replaced with the the Hori split pad, the form factor was almost similar.

This is true for a lot of hero villain combos. Batman and Joker come to mind immediately.

I guess hitboxes aren’t weird anymore now that they’re more mainstream. Although I did make a custom layout that is unusual (if that’s your definition of weird).

All the cool kids hate Joycons.

Seriously though, I replaced them immediately and never took them out of the drawer again.

Most people online seem to feel quite strongly about it.

I’m quite strongly against it. I was really happy that my Nintendo Switch Hori controller didn’t have rumble, because then I didn’t have to bother turning it off in every game.

But then again I’m odd with a lot of things. I see no difference between 60Hz refresh and 120 Hz. High end speakers mean nothing to me. Movies are all the same to me in 4K or high quality 1080p. High settings in games add nothing for me over medium graphical settings. It works out really well for me. I can buy cheap electronics that I really enjoy.

The number is based on the 10% of Steam accounts visible publicly. And then they calculated based on current full retail price of the unplayed games. It’s a nonsense figure.

Is Skullgirls still alive? Is there much of a player base?

I used a Deck as my primary computer for 2 months while waiting for my PC parts to arrive. It worked out so well that I installed Linux on my PC when I finally put it together. The Deck’s hardware can struggle with heavy use, but it’s perfectly useable for daily requirements for me.

Streets of Rogue was a laugh, but it didn’t stick the way Gungeon did.

It took me months of play to finish my first Gungeon run. But once I beat a run, it became routine that pretty much every run got finished successfully. Although the extra bosses are really difficult, I didn’t get to grips with those.

I had written geberal detailed tips for Gungeon back in the day…but that’s all lost now since I scrubbed everything I had ever submitted to Reddit.

The potential for game breaking synergies and relative simplicity of movement/shooting in 4 cardinal directions makes for pretty fantastic gameplay.

BoI has taken a bit more of a back seat in my library since I discovered Enter the Gungeon.

I’m surprised that’s still in the most played games. Also Slay the Spire. They’re top quality games and I still play them. Just surprised there’s a long term wider audience.

Possibly. The very early part of the game is linear. Very quickly in this game you’ll find it impossible to look up a guide because it is so non-linear, and it is really difficult to judge where you are in the game because you might have done things in a completely different order. Generally, early bosses just take a bit of practice and pattern recognition, and tend not to be reliant on upgrades.
