The Mass Effect trilogy is so great and the Legendary Edition is perfect on Steam Deck. You can even lower the TDP to improve battery life and still get good graphics.
I rep’ayed them a few months ago and I was real’y impressed by the scale of it.
To be honnest, Mass Effect is some kind of Cyberpunk 2077 with better gameplay and story.
People don’t like the third one, but for me it was the best one.
Sounds crazy to me that people aren’t shutting down their computers when not using them. For me it’s like turning off the light off in a room you’re leaving. I can still hear the voice of my mum giving me a lecture about not wasting energy and I’m thankful for this.
It’s such a small gesture and it can already improve your carbon footprint a tiny bit.
The only exception is when I’m downloading a game or backing up my computer.
That was an interesting read, thanks!
Oh, thanks for the deep analyse.
I guess I might play these games one day then🤞
I played all of them until Double Agent.
I remember really enjoying the part where you were doing spy missions in your QG in double agent and the way you had an objective with your organisation and another one with your agency.
I don’t know why I never played the following ones, but now I don’t think I could enjoy certain political aspects of the story where the americans (the government, not the people) are the good guys…
Yes but most of the Steam Deck owners are probably not into games with really high requirements.
And, for those who are, it’s great to be able to play demanding games with cheap (for now) hardware.
Probably, but I guess we should boycott these and choose a model with our wallets.
The only good side is that devs will have to optimize and do more with less or focus less on graphics.
Well from what I saw in Gardiner’s review of the video, Linus was encouraging people to use Linux.
Oh yes you’re right, but then let’s say that a lot of great games were published by EA.
Oh yeah I forgot this one. I enjoyed it too.
Heroic is fine enough for me except that I would want it to have background downloads on Steam Deck and better achievements integration.
If we get this, I don’t need anything official from GOG even if more official Linux support is always welcome😇
I wish I also had screenshots of my desktops from back in the days. It would reflect my own evolution.
I’m happy to see that your experience was troublefree, but I wouldn’t want people to think that Linux is always smooth sailing as it clearly isn’t always the case.
To be honest, even if I love my Steam Deck and my other computers, nothing beats a Playstation when it comes to easy gaming.
It runs great on Steam Deck and, according to what I read, you just have a manipulation to do if you want to play offline. Although it wasn’t annoying enough for me to do it as I could just played using my phonés hotspot when not at home.
You should definitely play it if you get it for cheap.
Proton DB is great for such questions.
I’m starting the Metro series instead of you then. Enjoying 2033 even if characters and storytelling is a bit stereotypical for now.
I checked and both Heroic and Firefox are using MB/s so at least the indicated speeds are different. Leaving the Deck on would be really annoying as it would mean not playing any other game at the same time, but I’ll try downloading on another computer I can just leave turned on. I’ll see how much time I need to download just one game. Apparently Wolfenstein would take under 5.5 hour according to Heroic…
I just think it’s annoying that if you turn off your computer the download resumes from 0% on Heroic…
I think it’s MB/s and I ain’t sure about Firefox.
The thing is that downloading the offline installers allows me to not do it all at once as through Heroic I’d need so many hours and turning the Deck off makes me start from 0 again.
But I’d love to just download through Heroic😇
Yeah I also found this on github and then tried to play with the workers (don’t what that is).
They were set to max and then I changed the numbers without seeing anything special…
Although I didn’t reboot between changes as Heroic never instructed me too…
I fully agree! In Mass Effect 3 you really feel like a part of the crew!
In the others too but a tad less. Still walking around the ship has always been a pleasure that I haven’t really found in any other game.
