What games are you playing?

My graphics card and cpu can’t handle these highly animated 3d rendering hd-environments. Plus. My nerves go completely berserk, and I might just go out on to the street and begin harming innocent people.

So I rest with this kind of thing:

LA Times crossword. Easy on Monday, gets progressively harder until the widow maker on Sunday.

These are the most graphically instensive games I play.

True, but battery life isn’t really a concern to me…
at home it’s usually plugged in or nearby a charger,
and when i’m taking the train to work, i always have a 25000 mah powerbank with me that supports 45W quickcharging…

On older titles the battery life is great actually…
Been playing Oblivion with a bunch of mods, and it only draws about 7-8 Watts then, giving me a battery life of nearly 6 hours.

I finally got Oblvion Script Extender to work on the deck!
installed NorthernUI, so the game finally has proper gamepad support now

Speaking of Oblivion, I have been planning to restart Skyrim for a long time but I wonder what kind of hell is to get mods running on linux? :grimacing: I prefer my skyrim allmost vanilla-like experience but I need at least skyUI and unofficial patch running :thinking:

i used SteamTinkerLaunch, and from there i installed Vortex Mod Manager…

My guess is skyUI uses Skyrim Script Extender?
I only got Oblivion Script Extender to work, by installing it on a vanilla oblivion install on windows, and then transferring over the complete installation from Windows to Linux…

(well, i did get it to work in desktop mode initialy, but it wouldn’t work when launched from the SteamDeck UI, so this workaround might not be necessary for you)

Yeah I read about STL and I think I test it with MO2 :slightly_smiling_face: Script extender was easy → I just copy/pasted it inside the game dir and that did the trick.

Should be a walk in the park then :slight_smile:

Well it took some time but it is working now :exploding_head: MO2 was pain to get running because installer needed innoextract package and it was documented only in github discussion

Vortex worked out of box but I did not get Sky UI run with it

So in case of lobotomy: To get MO2 running with Arch:

Install Steamtinkerlaunch: yay -S steamtinkerlaunch
Install innoextract: sudo pacman -S innoextract (Don’t try to install MO2 before this!)
Install MO2: steamtinkerlaunch mo2 install

Nobody Saves The World, finally got a controller today for my computer so it’ll be a lot easier playing some of these games now.

Welp, XCOM2 ran for a bit on my notebook and now it is not. A $13 mistake that I learned. I also haven’t been able to get Heroes of the Storm to work. I’m batting a 1000! :laughing:

The lesson learned? I will need to check Can I Run It? or PC Game Benchmark website before I purchase a Steam game to make sure it can run!

Thus I went back to my Steam library and dusted off Faster Than Light (FTL). I got to Sector 3 until the whole crew perished. Also, don’t attack giant spiders!

I have been playing Final Fantasy 9 on the switch. I had played it years ago on the PS2(the ps1 version) but I had bought it forever ago on the switch during a sale and wanted to play it again. It is one of my favorite Final Fantasy games next to 6, 7 and 10.

I’ve been playing Elden Ring. I definitely enjoy that it runs on linux.
