I’ve been replaying Dragon Quest 8 (PS2) on my Steam Deck, and it just fills me with joy. Except for the absolutely bonkers choices they hardcoded for buttons and camera movement. Ah, good times.

I’ve been suspicious that newer production lines for joysticks have been cutting costs in cheaper materials for a while now. I usually replace the joysticks when they drift, but I’m also quite comfortable to taking things apart and fixing them.
I remember my old PS2 controllers never drifted and that was back when I played hard on them every day after school. These days I hardly have time to play during the week, and they regularly go bad within a year or two.
Blizzard should’ve made a better game, then it wouldn’t matter which platform they release it on. Seriously, I’d rather play Immortal than 4.
I built one of these a couple weekends back and have been blissfully extracting ROMs from my cartridge collection since then. I love it so much, and it's a really solid design!
Exactly. I’m one of these gamers. I’m tired of souls-likes and rogue-likes, boomer shooters, gritty grimdark action dramas…
Like you said, life is hard and expects so much from me. I want games that feel like it’s okay to exist without having to try too hard or prove myself. Cozy is exactly the genre I want to be spending most of my gaming time in.
I would love a display upgrade to mostly just get better colors, but otherwise I’m pretty happy with my Steam Deck, yeah. I can’t blame them, much a smaller form factor or better display, or longer battery life or more power… It really is in a pretty sweet spot for most of that.
Thank you. Obviously “we would buy them if we could” is given; but just as obviously, this was just wishful thinking out loud.
No more than it was before the DLC release, no.
Wasn’t PoE exactly this, but for Diablo 3? Apparently the Diablo series just spawns community-built competitors each generation now?
Thank you for this. I had the same impression, and was starting to get annoyed; but if it comes with more features out the gate, then that’s nice!
So glad I found out about them a couple years back when the new Senua sequel announcement trailer hit and I just NEEDED to know more about that song they used.
I’m with you for 3DS. Vita was kind of a dead gen for me at the time—what are some of your favorites?
