I don’t want a beefier Steam Deck 2. I want a Steam Deck Mini that fits in my pocket and runs my favorite 2D indie games.
Two years ago, one of my favorite games made some very minor cosmetic tweaks, and that was enough to attract a horde of post-Gamergaters crying that this is the downfall of western civilization. Two years later, the board for that game is still under seige by trolls that have rendered it unusable for anyone who actually wants to talk about the game. Every now and then a Valve mod will lock one thread, and then the trolls just make another and it continues.
I want to see The Year of the Linux Desktop™ as much as anyone else on this platform, but I think you’re living in a bubble if you believe there’s any universe in which this could suddenly dethrone Windows.
It’ll carve out a good niche for itself, but that’s really all it will be.


Ephebophile (noun): A pedophile with a thesaurus.
I’m hoping ARM support could pave the way for a Steam Deck Mini next. I bought a Miyoo Mini Plus two years ago and put far more time into it than I ever did my Deck, which honestly just kinda gathers dust now.
I don’t need specs, I just need something that fits in my pocket and runs my favorite 2D indie games.


My impression of the original Steam Controller was that it was designed for games I don’t want to play on controller, at the expense of being terrible for games I do want to play on controller.
I don’t think they even can manufacture at a scale anywhere close to the big three. Like with the Steam Deck, it’ll be a great product for a niche audience, but the numbers will be limited in comparison. No chance of taking over the industry.
Steam Forums are one of the worst unmoderated hellholes on the internet. It pains me that Valve keeps letting this shit keep happening.
Lemmy, especially its developers
I will forever swear by the 8BitDo Pro 2
The only thing keeping me off of Wayland is the fact that OBS window capture forces me to manually reselect every window every time.


Announced in 1997, released in 2000. Might’ve seemed like a lot at the time, but barely a footnote by today’s standards.


CoH’s control scheme requires both hands, so I can’t recommend it to OP. But I’ll also have to say that I have the opposite opinion, CoH was good for a casual playthrough but wasn’t something I could sink several hundred hours into like the original. The overworld made runs much longer and much more repetitive since a lot of it is always the same.


Anything turn-based, especially mouse-driven titles. Slay the Spire, Chess, Riichi Mahjong, Balatro, etc.
Puyo Puyo Champions has a one-handed preset in its controller options. Do note that if you want to play online, only Switch is active since that’s where Japan is, I can’t recommend the game on other platforms.
Kirby Air Ride uses only one button + analog stick, and any button works, so you can use L. Would have to be left hand for the original, but the sequel coming out later this month has a detailed accessibility menu, which I bet will include right-handed settings.
Crypt of the Necrodancer is designed to be playable with just four arrows, in case anyone wanted to play it on a DDR mat. Which also means you can play with arrow keys or WASD.
Rhythm Doctor is actually just one button.
Rhythm Heaven Fever uses only A and B. Rhythm Heaven DS uses only stylus. The rest of the series uses d-pad as well though, so those are less playable.
Come to think of it, any DS game that only uses stylus.
Assuming this is for a team game, predator-prey relationships create interesting dynamics where teammates have to protect each other from their counters, while also aiming to create situations where they can isolate a countered opponent to press the advantage.
In a 1v1 game though, you do want panel 2. It would be very bad if Street Fighter was decided by playing rock-paper-scissors on the character select screen.
If I’m commenting on an article, I’m not just talking to the person who posted the article here. So it doesn’t really matter who posted it.
Wow who would’ve thought that listening to voters’ concerns about the economy, acknowledging their fears, and promising real change to address the most important issues facing them would be a viable way to win elections!
It’s the funniest possible explanation, therefore it must be the truth.
