Jimboxy Posted July 16, 2021 Share Posted July 16, 2021 I just placed a pre order, no big deal. I didn't see when I can expect it. I probably won't see it through realistically. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DANGERMAN Posted October 19, 2021 Share Posted October 19, 2021 Quote Valve is reviewing the entire Steam catalog on Deck. After each game is reviewed, it is categorized for its level of compatibility of Steam Deck. You’ll see these categories on Steam, when you’re browsing your library or shopping for games on Deck. Four categories of Deck compatibility VERIFIED The game works great on Steam Deck, right out of the box. PLAYABLE The game may require some manual tweaking by the user to play*. UNSUPPORTED The game is currently not functional on Steam Deck. UNKNOWN We haven't checked this game for compatibility yet. Short version rather than me pasting the whole page. Valve are testing the whole Steam library to see if it works on Steam Deck (to a point, I suspect some of the more obscure dodgy stuff is getting ignored), and will mark it accordingly. Green tick means it fully works, yellow ! means it works but you might have to fiddle with some things like downloading controller profiles (like the Steam Controller did), ? they haven't tested it yet, and a no entry sign it doesn't work, pretty much designated for VR games If you want more detail you can go to the Steam page for the game and it will have more, as shown below https://www.steamdeck.com/en/verified Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nag Posted October 19, 2021 Share Posted October 19, 2021 It's the first time I've ever really paid attention to this thing... that controls layout looks really uncomfortable to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DANGERMAN Posted October 19, 2021 Share Posted October 19, 2021 supposedly, because it's quite thick, it's better than it looks. I guess we'll find out in a couple of months, mine isn't due until Q2 next year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nag Posted October 19, 2021 Share Posted October 19, 2021 I guess I just presumed they would be on the bottom of the device... hopefully it's more comfortable than it looks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spatular Posted October 19, 2021 Share Posted October 19, 2021 the steam controller is really comfy to hold so hopefully that's a good sign, although i've never played a game with it. did you guys see the mini teardown valve did? i still can't decide if i want one, and if so what size (get a 64 and upgrade it?), i don't really trust the emulation layer stuff so would install windows on it.

merman1974 Posted December 3, 2021 Share Posted December 3, 2021 Valve have stated that games released through Steam won’t be exclusive to the Deck - they have to play on a PC as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mfnick Posted January 26, 2022 Share Posted January 26, 2022 Sort Persona 4 out or it’s a no buy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DANGERMAN Posted January 26, 2022 Share Posted January 26, 2022 apparently (I read this in a comments section), the issue with Persona 4 is the cut scenes are in some weird codec. Valve are supposed to be working on a universal converter, so by release it should be working, although Feb 25th is sooner than I expected. I suppose at least by the time I get mine it will be sorted Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mfnick Posted January 26, 2022 Share Posted January 26, 2022 Yea that’s what I read too. Ive got one pre-ordered but I doubt I’m in the first batch. But genuinely P4 is one of the main reasons I want it so if they can’t get that working, & depending on first hands on impressions, it may be a deal breaker for me. At launch anyway.

one-armed dwarf Posted January 26, 2022 Share Posted January 26, 2022 Given the nature of it I would say there'll be some sort of open source solution to it as well, some mod which replaces the cutscenes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nabby9 Posted January 27, 2022 Share Posted January 27, 2022 Yeah I think I read that there's already a solution in Linux for codecs so there might already be a work around available, will be interesting to see how easy it is to get other stores working as well. Apparently it's just Gamepass which you can't get working on Linux so that promising as well. I'm sure once people get there hands on them things will move quite quickly.

DisturbedSwan Posted January 27, 2022 Author Share Posted January 27, 2022 Reserved mine last night, not sure if I'll go through with it when I eventually get allotted one (not expecting anytime before September) but it looks like a nifty bit of kit at the moment and will be cheaper than a Gaming Laptop for something I can play on the couch when the missus is watching TV in the evenings. As for Persona 4, get a Vita you chumps. 😂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

one-armed dwarf Posted February 4, 2022 Share Posted February 4, 2022 I looked on reddit and apparently there is a fork of proton you can install to get P4 working. This is it. Lots of steps, but that's linux gaming for ya https://github.com/GloriousEggroll/proton-ge-custom In the meantime, it's unlikely the game will work unless Atlus do some work I think as it's due to windows codecs not working on linux. So it's as much a copy right problem as it is technical probably. edit DM says valve are doing something about it, but who knows when it comes out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mfnick Posted February 4, 2022 Share Posted February 4, 2022 Fuck that, I’m not messing about that much. It should just work, that’s what Valve were advertising when they announced it. Ah well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
