I like the idea of RetroDeck over EmuDeck, but a couple things hold me back.
Sure, but what about when you use a laptop on your… Lap?
On a couch, bed, bus, plane, train, waiting room chair, etc.
I dunno how people can knock the option. I can’t stand using a laptop without a touchscreen.
Quick interaction with small elements at distances across the screen? Absolutely I’m preferring poking the screen over the touchpad.
I would never drop the touchpad in favour of a touchscreen, but I feel it when the touchscreen is missing.
What’s with some really scary companies (Anduril, Palantir) cribbing their names from LOTR?
No, there’s a web installer than is run entirely on device.
Pluto is still hot shit.
Which is what I mean - any way you slice it, this has 2 inputs less than the Steam Deck (I haven’t looked for the number of grip buttons on this thing).
I don’t use all the input options on every single game, but there are plenty that I do (namely shooters like Deep Rock, Helldivers, etc and hotkey heavy RPGs like DA Inquisition)
ERP = erotic role play?
Dunno. Despite the swappable inputs, there is still no way to get trackpad + joystick + buttons/dpad at the same time.
What’s the story there?
Not enough social credits
So much for Nintendo’s previous naming conventions. I was really hoping for the New Super Nintendo Switch U.
Kinda wild to see his name pop up still, I had commissioned him for a piece nearly 15 years ago.
I switch over to desktop to install new games, but that isn’t strictly necessary - you could run Heroic in game mode and install from there.
Once a game is installed through Heroic it will automatically add a shortcut (I.e. Non-Steam game) to Steam. For the shortcut to be visible, however, the Steam client needs to be restarted. This is why I switch to desktop for all my installing needs then reboot in to game mode. When playing, I never need to leave game mode.
The easy way is with the Heroic Game Launcher. Log in to your GOG account and direct install.
Not entirely. Sony has been releasing games to PC.
How old are they?
I loved Tribes. The verticality, the freedom of movement, the timing of slow moving projectiles. It’s one of the few multiplayer FPS that I sunk time in to and got quite competent at.
The only other game to scratch the freedom of movement itch in the same way was AVP2, playing as the Alien (wall walking, pouncing across the map, etc) though obviously it didn’t have a lot of the same features.
Tribes is so far behind me that I don’t remember any of the people, servers, etc that I played on, but I do remember my nick: Guy In The Sky.
As others mentioned… Mods. I frequently played Renegades, but I believe HaVoC was my favourite.
Oh, and PlanetTribes/PlanetStarsiege? F.
Oh my goodness. Thank you, checking this out.
Still not enough a reason to connect my TV to the internet.
