It was ok. It felt like it needed something. The basic ship was clunky feeling to fly and the weapons felt mediocre. The enemies didn’t feel fun to fight either. But it was fun with my friends. But I think that was spending time with them more than the game was. I walked away from the game not disliking it, but not having any particular interest in playing any more of it.

_spiffy@lemmy.cato Games@lemmy.world•SteamOS 3 finally released by Valve for other handheldEnglish2·1 month agoPretty much. If it works for the steam deck it should work for the desktop. There are some exceptions for some brand new games. But if you want to wait a week or two for new releases usually it’s fine.

_spiffy@lemmy.cato Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•How has standing or standing-sitting vs sitting while working affected your life?English5·1 month agoI have a sit/stand desk and it’s great. I feel like my posture has improved and being on my feet all day bothers me less. I really want to get a small treadmill so I can walk and work. That would be the dream.

I’m loving it. But most of the people I talk to were put off by eternal. It’s more of that Soni can get people not picking it up for it’s very expensive cost currently.
_spiffy@lemmy.cato Gaming@lemmy.ml•I can't believe we get a free game with the new doom soundtrack.English1·1 month agoPeople are upset about doom. I’m enjoying it, the engine is crazy cool and I love how badass I feel playing it. I get that it’s not a super long game, but I’m ok with that. I like just hopping in, murdering demons and being badass for short periods of time.

_spiffy@lemmy.cato Steam Deck@sopuli.xyz•Has the Deck turned *off* any other Steam users?English17·2 months agoI have set up a steam family and created accounts for my kids. Other than only having one copy of some games or games not supporting family sharing it’s been great. I have control over the games they can see in their libraries and we can all play different or the same game with enough licenses at the same time. We often play valheim together.
I would put one on mine.

I’ve had multiple instances where games performed better on Wayland than on x.
My wife and I have been sharing finances and everything forever. But many people don’t and it really feels like it’s because they half know it’s not going to work out. So they just don’t bother committing.
I honestly can’t think of a damned thing I’m weirdly good at. Maybe that’s my super power. Extreme averageness.
_spiffy@lemmy.cato Steam Deck@sopuli.xyz•Market research firm International Data Corporation estimated that between 3.7 and 4 million Steam Deck had been sold by the third anniversary of the device in February 2025.English1·3 months agoThe LCD one is 512GB which hasn’t been an issue for them so far. They mostly just play valheim and portal/portal2, sticky business and snakeybus. I figure once they get older they will have access to more games and will need more space. But I’m hoping at that point they are involved financially in the purchase so they will have some control over what they get.
I love my Kobo Clara. I’ve read more in the past few years of ownership than I did the 10 years before. Plus I have a calibre-web server that it syncs with so I don’t have to manually move things over.
