Sorry, what's this got to do with Sony?

Yeah, I didn't like the shape/feel of the stock sticks either. I never really had any problems with sick drift or anything, but I also didn't actually own the system for very long either.

To remedy this, I had actually bought some stick caps from skull & co (per recommendations from people on here actually) and they were quite excellent.

Personally, I didn't like physically holding the steam deck. In my opinion, it's much too heavy/bulky and even with a high quality comfort grip It just wasn't working for me. Ultimately, I ended up going with an Ayn Odin 2 instead and I've been enjoying my portable/lounging game time much more now. I do miss the ability to play my steam library though. Even though I can still do this with streaming, I just don't like streaming games as much. Other than the weight/size/ergonomics, which most people seem to be just fine with, the only other thing I'd mention is that steam's UI is buggy as hell when you're browsing around the store. I ended up doing most of my browsing on desktop as a result.

All that being said, you can't deny the draw of it. Even though it wasn't for me personally, I still like the system and I'd still recommend it to pretty much anybody. There's a reason Steam Deck is the champ.

Also, look up retro game corp if you aren't familiar. He just released a video today called 'dude, just get a steam deck'

Nice ingenuity!

[–] technomad@slrpnk.net 1 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Nice. Still your design, or did you go with aftermarket?

Man, that first one is really cool. What is it?

[–] technomad@slrpnk.net 3 points 7 months ago (1 children)

I feel like if it drops that much in one year, it's probably a pretty shit game anyway right?

[–] technomad@slrpnk.net 4 points 7 months ago

Ha! That's good shit. Thanks buddy :)

It's probably just intentional conflation, but then again, that might be giving too much credit.
