      On the Steam Deck? I had actually expected much worse from an UE5 title.

      That said, we ain’t bringing down no Rocketeers or Vaporizers on them Decks.

        Ah, it’s only the Queen/Harvesters and Matriarch maps I avoid as the Deck really starts chugging on those matches. It’s a bit annoying since they’re endgame content (I’ve been playing pretty much since release and still haven’t crafted a single legendary weapon, lol) but after tinkering with the settings, I can usually lock in a pretty stable 35 FPS otherwise.

        Best of luck out there, Raider!

    Started Dishonored 2 on Deck. It flows better than 1, maybe because I know what to expect and how the game plays. Kind of dived into 1 with the expectation of playing it like a FPS. Waiting for my Frame, am on the reservation queue since the lottery. Having daydreams of playing the game in VR, that would be so cool, seems like a perfect VR game. Theoratically, there could be a way, but Linux support and especially Frame support doesn’t seem to be there yet. But as long as I can’t buy the Frame I keep daydreaming anyways.

      I couldn’t get far in Dishonored 2 on my Steam deck: text was too small and jagged, both in menus and in-game trivia, like books, letters, etc. Otherwise a great title, yeah, with much smoother combat than the first game - not that the first game’s combat is bad, though!

        Have you tried the Deck lense? I can read the text just fine, but before starting, I got a popup, that there’s a button combo to use a lense, to better read stuff.

          Oh right!

          I actually use it all the time in Starminer: have it bound on left trackpad touch, and the trackpad itself be a whole screen mouse region. I guess a game like Dishonored 2 just doesn’t lend itself to the lense every now and then, so I didn’t even think about it.

          I also have the left trackpad dedicated to movement in Dishonored 2, but now that I think of it, maybe layers or chords will do the trick.

          Thanks for the reminder! Maybe I’ll actually do my second playthrough on the Steam Deck!

    Fucking Noita. I have a ton of games on the deck but my fingers seem only able to launch Noita. I need a 12 step program…

      I asked the other club members and we took a vote. They said if have a Steam Controller and you’re still using it - you can be an associate member only. That basically limits you to two Half-Life 3 jokes a day and posting about how “my wallet hurts” or similar to 4 times a year. Otherwise - welcome to the club!

    On the Machine I have been playing couch co-op Minecraft Dungeons II (streamed from my windows machine since it doesn’t currently support Linux). On the Frame I have finally been playing through Chants of Sennaar, I was also playing through Minecraft Dungeons I on the Frame (which isn’t technically Frame verified but I was able to get like 30 FPS at 1080p on that game).
