Can't recommend The Last of Us for Steam Deck.

Hard crash reboots multiple times, and performance in some areas even with everything on Low is below 30FPS.

@gamingonlinux In fairness, God of War still does that for me on a regular basis (on Windows), but everyone gushed over that. 😂

@gamingonlinux i really really really appreciate u giving ur "reviews" or news/disclaimers on new game releases n how they perform, etc. from the perspective of a stock experience. i don't doubt there are people who do not do that, which can result to misinformation.

Jonathan

@gamingonlinux I have the original on the PS3 and still haven't played it. I need to dust it off

Shader building for The Last of Us on Steam Deck looks like it takes at least 1 hour on the main menu.

@gamingonlinux Yep, took 36 minutes on a Desktop with Ryzen 5900X...

@gamingonlinux That's painful. And reminds me how long it was waiting 5 minutes for a game to load from a cassette tape when I was a kid!

Liam @ GamingOnLinux 🐧🎮

One of me Steam Decks is doing that thing were it just won't stay asleep...or shutdown. Keeps loading back up. Quite frustrating.

@gamingonlinux How many do you have at this point? And more importantly - have you tried standing up a k8s cluster out of them? :)

@gamingonlinux
I ran into this and searched everywhere for a solution. No joke, I saw a random comment from someone on Reddit saying to remove the MicroSD card and then reinsert it. I did that and the problem went away. I don't know exactly what loop the SteamDeck got into involving the MicroSD card, but doing that got it to stop. SteamDeck sleeps and shutsdown fine now.

Looks like Valve updated Proton Hotfix for The Last of Us and set it as the default for Steam Deck

#SteamDeck #Linux

@gamingonlinux I noticed this happening since Dota recently removed OpenGL mode and went all Vulkan, which is my first experience with a Vulkan game. For me it gives slightly better FPS than OpenGL mode but it eats gigabytes of extra RAM even after closing everything. Relieved to hear it's being worked on!

@gamingonlinux Seeing that they removed "-oldbigpicture", does that mean they finally fixed linux nvidia performance for the new one?

topi

@gamingonlinux Have to check if they mean the broken Far Cry 2 uninstall with this one.

@gamingonlinux and yet there will still be people refusing to move over because “it’s twitter! There’s nothing like it!” 🙄🙄

Gamers: Valve are allergic to the number 3!

SteamOS 3 existing: 😭

@gamingonlinux maybe the original SteamOS3 was cancelled, just for luck?

davibu

@gamingonlinux
Also the first Steamplay Version used Proton 3 😋, but I guess they never released a Proton 1 or 2.

doragasu

@gamingonlinux SteamOS aside, they perpetuate the joke themselves. For example in their VR game "The Lab", in the robot repair minigame, there is a telephone with the number 3 erased...

@gamingonlinux set as an open world game in Morocco? Doesn't really go with the scenario based style of the first two...

Juancho

@gamingonlinux I think there is a posibility that it is a horde mode like Call of Duty Zombies.

njamster :godot:

@gamingonlinux "I have to admit, I'm pretty sure I scrolled away from this on Steam the first time it came up, thinking it didn't look like much." Same here! 😂 But (for an alpha) it's actually really neat! I've already sunk more hours into the demo than I'm willing to admit. 😅

Also #MadeWithGodot :)

Just a reminder that preloading on Steam Deck is a bad idea if you have good internet. Unpacking speed is really really slow for big games.

Benjamin

@gamingonlinux ... Uh, what even is preloading? I don't recall enabling or disabling it.

*Edit. OoOOOOh. Yeah haven't used it yet. But we on australia internet so....

Rafii

@gamingonlinux I mean that depends, for example even tho you have a fast internet at home, you may not be at home for some days and may want to preload beforehand. It's an option for those who needs it

YesBait

@gamingonlinux Oh hey somebody proving great content, making him get followers, very noice! 😁​

I’ve held onto this for a long time but it is finally time to say it: I did not care for Garrus in Mass Effect.

@gamingonlinux I might agree with you, but I was too busy hating Ashley Williams to even think about Garrus.

Ceremus :t_blink:

@gamingonlinux The clever part of ME1 is almost all the characters are reflections of what kind of character you decide your Shepard should be.

Do side with Ashley's viewpoint and be "humans first" because of previous conflicts with Turians? Or do you take Kaiden's POV, that humans can't be trusted to wield power responsibly, having grown up in an alliance camp that trained child soldiers.

Garrus is simply the Lawful vs. Renegade viewpoint character in the equation.

@gamingonlinux finally got into champ and the first game I played, immediately someone being toxic and throwing the whole game because of one mistake :')

jmichalicek

@gamingonlinux I play that game with my daughter. I have no clue how people manage to be so obviously skilled and accurate.

Liam @ GamingOnLinux 🐧🎮

I have a gaming problem where I am super competitive and also super terrible at any online game 🥲🥲🥲

@gamingonlinux one of my nephews after watching me play the crash bandicoot remaster for maybe 20 mins said to me, very somberly and sincerely, "why do you likes games when you are so bad at them?"
