Thank you for adding the link to the article!

It is true. Not all heroes wear capes. Thanks for saying what I was screaming.

Very informative and well documented and yet found it super entertaining. Thanks for the video link.

Dave the Diver & Factorio

Those two are the main drivers and the below are games I slot in once I feel like it’s becoming a grind

Vampire Survivors, XCOM: Chimera Squad, and Portals 2

I’m thinking something like AC: Syndicate or Metal Gear might also work as a change of pace. Anyone playing longer form narrative games on the Steam Deck?

Yep. Admittedly I couldn’t imagine an advanced player using the basic Xbox controller setup although I hear from the Switch players that it’s adequate. I could only play with the Steam Controller. It’s already verging on hard work playing it on a customizable multi button trackpad enabled controller that having limited controls would just break me.

And with the trackpad and back buttons and customizable controls it’s genuinely a treat to play. I don’t miss the keyboard/mouse. I even tracked down an old steam controller when I’m playing at home on the big screen.

Factorio. Godanmed Factorio ruining my life.

Same thing happened to me. I realized it was trek memes. Didn’t understand the relevance of Risa. Googled on memory alpha and found out. Had a good laugh at the joke as it were. Understood why there was no written out explanation of the naming. It’s part of the spirit and injokeness of the place.

The reason people are antagonistic is because it’s all coming across a bit entitled.

It’s just trek memes. Chill. You’re going to be ok man.
