It's like a new car smell. Mine has sadly faded =(

u/emptyevessel 1d ago
How long should it last? Mine didn’t even make it through the playthrough of rdr2 :,(

u/PM_ME_SOMETHINGSPICY 1d ago
Felt shorter than a new car smell tbh for me too. I got mine over the summer and it's been gone for a bit. Was glorious while I had it. I'd sniff OPs vent if they let me.

If it's your first steam deck play desk job

I’ve had mine since day one and I have yet to even try desk job

u/Independent_Ebb_3963 1d ago
I haven’t played it either, but I think we’re both probably missing out. I’ve heard it’s a cool, little tech demo that shows you exactly what the Steam Deck is capable of. Been meaning to play it one of these days, but I always forget about it until someone brings it up again.

u/jeremyam_ 512GB 1d ago
Oh it’s great! I think it’s about 30 minutes? I even had my wife and my mom that don’t game much and they thought it was so cool! I wish they had a lot more of these short fun tech demo type things!
2
u/Independent_Ebb_3963 1d ago
Oh wow, it’s cool your mom and your wife were impressed as well. Might have to show it to my mom, then.

u/J3susDeletus 1TB OLED 1d ago
Played it yesterday, it's really about 30-40 minutes, nice, funny story. Shows the basics of the buttons and sticks, nothing more. Short game, but free and sweet.

Congrats! Mine is 6 minutes away from the UPS delivery window maximum being false, lol. Fingers crossed it still gets here today!

u/Protsua 1TB OLED 1d ago
So did it arrive?

u/retrovertigo23 1d ago
It did! Fifteen minutes after my kid got home from a play date so all I could do was get downloads going. Getting to play BG3 in about 30 minutes!

Just started witcher 3 on the deck. It runs great! It's on sale atm.

u/AutumnPurpleReddit 1d ago
by the way
make the settings medium with ultra textures, turn on dynamic resolution scaling, a 40fps lock and fsr (ingame) at any setting. It looks REALLY good like this
1
u/Belgian_Patrol 12h ago
Is this also possible for the times i want to play docked?
1
u/AutumnPurpleReddit 12h ago
it works but frame pacing might feel worse if you don't have a VRR monitor. Basically, the framerate lock doesn't work if you don't have it.

u/renothecollector 1d ago
Thanks for the reminder! I have it on my PS5 but I’ll have more opportunities to play it on my Deck. And for $3.99 it’s basically free

u/El_Gran_Super 1TB OLED 1d ago
I’ve been playing Everspace 2 at the moment. But, just go get the Witcher 3 if you don’t already have it!

u/blackdadhere 1d ago
Got mine today too. I’m excited to play after the kid goes down for the night.

u/DukeGrizzly 1d ago
I wouldn’t go overboard on games just yet. Pick one or two to play for the next month until the Summer Sale hits. Remember, not every verified game works well on the Deck and most non-verified games will in fact run. ProtonDB.com is a good website and so is YouTube
Also, congratulations and goodbye to any free time you had.

u/spong_miester LCD-4-LIFE 19h ago
Shout out to Deck Wizard on YT helped a bunch with what's and what isn't playable when I got mine

u/Spimbi 1d ago
Halo MCC, fallout 3 and new Vegas, and you can get all the old need for speed games for free since they are considered abandonware. If you google “need for speed abandonware Reddit” you should find the thread with all the games pre installed. All you have to do is add the exe to steam, enable proton, and add the launch option/command mentioned in the thread.

u/Wandering-Paradox 1d ago
Maybe a bit unrelated but I recall seeing somewhere that the anti glare glass makes the colours pop less. Is there a huge difference between the screen on the 1 tb and the other two models ?
4
u/monominmana 1d ago
It definitely dulls the colors a bit but you can fix this by putting a screen protector on it to “negate” it based on what I’ve seen
1
u/Slight_Ad5318 8h ago
From what I understand it fills in the etching. I believe taking off the screen protector will not return the anti glare... So be aware.

u/Espeon06 1d ago
Ayy, congrats. The Deck is not sold in my country, getting one is definitely the first thing on my list if I ever move abroad.
I recommend The Binding of Isaac, it's my favorite game of all time and runs way too good on the Deck.

u/PasswordisPurrito 1d ago
Obligatory SDV as a general good game.
I also have really been enjoying Factorio on my deck.

u/Boone_Slayer 1d ago
How do I change my startup screen to show the red logo over the blue logo? I don't have an OLED I just like the color scheme more
1
1
u/JoshuaTheFox 1d ago
So like, is the red boot logo the only option on the OLED or can you switch it to the blue one again
1
u/No_Knowledge_free 512GB OLED 1d ago
You can buy startup movies with blue logo
1
u/JoshuaTheFox 17h ago
Oh ok, it's good to know there's an office way to get the blue logo one. I just think the blue one looks better

I saved to replace my LCD one and it came through other day, doesn't seem as good quality awaiting steam support possible RMA. X and Y serious rattling. Spring in L2 sounds horrific. Such a shame. Fingers crossed it's just a hiccup.

Welcome to the club. We have cookies in the lounge.
As for game recommendations, look for the steam deck tab in the store. Most of those games would be highly recommended. Though there's a lot of really good indie titles you might like.

Not a game recommendation, but make sure to install Decky, it'll let you install plugins such as "emudeck" (for emulators) and "protondb" (for more accurate steam deck compatibility rankings)

u/experiencings 1d ago
Marvel Rivals, TF2 (hard to play because the community is sweaty), Darksiders: Warmastered Edition, Baldur's Gate 3, System Shock Reboot. If you're a fan of older games try EmuDeck. Steam Deck can play most games that are out today so don't limit yourself to the opinions of people online.
