I’ve demoed a couple of other apps like this but the subscription turned me off. Nice that this one is a flat purchase price! Wishlisting for now.

The account is still up and viewable for me. US.

It’s great to see more games adopting this.

Virtual Desktop is a little pricey but I’d buy it again in a heartbeat. Would love if they supported Linux though

Interesting you mention that, the actual patch notes indicate BLE won’t work with LCD. Though, the wording makes it seem like there’s a chance that could change in the future?

Known issue: Bluetooth LE based controllers are not currently compatible with bluetooth wake on LCD models

Bluetooth to wake was a significant part of why I upgraded to OLED lol (before you judge me, a friend had offered to buy my original). But I’m glad it’s coming to the LCD model now too.

And Plasma 6! Finally!

Sharing Jason Schreier’s take from bluesky:

Pleased to report that I love Avowed, the latest RPG from Obsidian. I expected strong writing and combat, but what’s surprised me (and kept me wanting more even after 40 hours) is the exploration. Everywhere you turn there’s a secret or treasure or rooftop to climb — it’s dense and full of life.

I’m a little surprised reading some of these reviews but I suspect that Avowed could wind up like Fallout: New Vegas, where there’s a vast gap between the critical reception and overall player consensus

Yakuza 0 was my first and still has a special place in my heart. However, the new games with Ichiban have also been great. Slowly working my way through Infinite Wealth right now, but there’s just so much to do (I spent days just doing Dondoko island).

More people need to check out the Judgment games as well.

I do a fair amount of streaming from my Windows PC. Your thoughts are correct, if you sleep your Deck it just breaks the connection, the game still continues to run on the host PC.

I’ve had a few glitches but your experience sounds a lot worse. Maybe a bad unit? I’d try HDMI as well just to rule out displayport being an issue

You’re right, while there are advantages to hosting a pds, it doesn’t seem you can run a fully fledged instance at this time

Great, you can host your own instance!

Is there a good alternative to this? Using one app for Blue sky, mastodon, and even Lemmy sounds cool

Yeah if you just finished your first playthrough it might be a little soon for the Final Draft. I beat it a few months ago and just finished the DLC a week or so ago, so I think it’s a good time for me. I bet you could just watch the cutscenes or differences on YouTube though.

I actually haven’t played the Max Payne games, but I’ve heard good things. I think there’s a remake of those rumored, so I’m probably going to wait and go check out Quantum Break next!

If it helps you decide, the Night Springs DLC is technically a prequel to AW2 but more or less standalone. The DLC is also pretty short with 3 separate chapters that are just a couple hours long total, and locations are reused from the base game. I believe there were supposed to be a couple extra chapters that got scrapped (partially due to James McCaffrey’s passing). That being said, I did enjoy it and think the third episode in particular was pretty interesting.

I’m currently playing The Final Draft. Totally agree, I think AW2 is a masterpiece and has sold me as a big fan of Sam Lake and his work. I liked the first game (and loved Control), but the sequel is a lot more fun than the first gameplay-wise.

After I finish the Final Draft, I will have to play Quantum Break. I think a Max Payne remake is rumored, so hopefully that will see light not long after. I have already played Control and it’s DLCs multiple times and can’t wait for that sequel.

I’d recommend Suyu instead of Yuzu, it’s based on the latest early-access build before Yuzu was shut down

Personally, I just use it in a web browser for ad-hoc file uploads. If you’re looking for regular syncing though, supposedly rclone works. https://docs.s3drive.app/setup/providers/#usernamepassword-setup

I actually hadn’t noticed it’s not there for mobile, but there’s search in the desktop view of the website

I’m on Stable, but there must have been a hot fix. I’m able to play online now without the anti-cheat triggering
