Welcome to r/SteamDeck, the subreddit for Valve's handheld computer.

I mostly love single player games. I had PS4, PS5 and used PS2 when I was a kid. Steam deck made me come back playing games again. I have been a game dev since 10 years but missed playing games regularly. Deck made it so convenient and I went back and tried all my favorite games again( skyrim, witcher 3, sleeping dogs, gta 5, god of war series). Can't believe this thing can run Ragnarok and costed me only $300.

So I wanna get a steam deck but only if my ps5 progress on games is on the steam deck vise versa so just wondering if that’s the case

I found there can be some issues getting the touchpads, and PS button to work for Playstation remote play using Chiaki4Deck/Chiaki-NG. I created a little video guide that can hopefully help out.

Steam Deck Chiaki - PS5 Touchpad, Gyro, PS Home Button Setup | Stellar Blade Remote Play Controls

Gyro
- GYRO BEHAVIOR: As Joystick
- Gyro Activation Buttons: L2
- Send to Joystick: Right Joystick

I‘ve seen someone say you can get the java edition on it, but i don’t know if it’s true. I really don’t want to change anything on the deck tho. I just want to keep it as it is, if possible.

Am i doing something wrong? Lol. Everytime there's a game with an auto HDR on, screen is just always darker. I need to turn it off everytime.

Did they restock the 64gb or 512gb at any point today? I got a sale notification at like 3am via my wishlist but didn’t check until just now

And does anyone have an idea if it will restock again or is it toast?

Wondering if the winter sale ever commonly restocks either

I just updated my deck before going to go hangout with a friend at a restaurant. But every time i try to play a game it says "Downloading Content" forever, even when i turn on airplane mode. What's going on?

Dredge is included in Amazon Prime Gaming's free December games, gives a GOG code that you can then import easily with the heroic launcher. I had been debating picking it up during this steam sale but then saw this today!

Hey just a heads up I just sadly had to return my OLED white limited edition on Black Friday. It hasn’t been processed/received yet. And idk what they plan to do with it. But slight chance it pops back into the website once it does in the following two weeks. So hold off on buying from a reseller just yet.

I can’t promise they will because I don’t know what they do in these scenarios. But I doubt they’d pre-sell it before I officially dropped it off in case I changed my mind before the 2 weeks was up. And I had only turned it on (no dead pixels) so I know there was nothing wrong and was brand new so I doubt they’d simply trash it or waste the resources to change the shell and buttons for no reason.

So this is my PSA for y’all. It was dropped off last weekend so keep an eye out.

After installing latest system update, has anyone experienced an issue of Hogwarts Legacy unable to launch? I’ve tried using the latest version of Proton GE but no success.

My friends want to do a modded run of Divinity but I'm using my Steam Deck and I'm not used to running mods. Separate launchers frustrate me. Does anyone have any experience in this and could offer some words of wisdom. My friend keeps telling me things with zero explanation and it makes me feel like my dad when he tried to help 8 year old me with my homework by yelling at me and asking me why I'm crying.

I know originally BG3 was optimized okay. But with more patches has performance on the deck smoothed out even more? Are the later acts more stable?

Basically what the title says. Factory new after picking a fully charged Deck (green LED) the battery was sitting at 99%, absolutely never 100%.

I just picked my Deck (was on sleep mode) with green LED and after waking from sleep it was sitting at 95%.

Is this normal or is my battery defective?

Kept browsing steam Store until my hands landed on this masterpiece, I'm at first 10min and the world looks stunning, first time ever playing the game, any tips ?

Things I gotta know about before my first run,

Also is there anyway to skip the intro to the universe that stutter for some reason on entering the world.

For the sake of variety; i have no interest in modern iterations of the big 3; tekken, mortal kombat or street fighter.

I would definitely buy something like MvC2 or Third Strike but im not sure if those games are available on the deck or if they have active multiplayer

Looking to pick up a deck builder game, and see these two as the most frequently recommended. Curious if anyone would recommend one over the other?

I see Monster Train does have multiplayer, although not sure everyone’s experiences with it.

Multiplayer does interest me, but it is not the deciding factor.

Would love to hear any thoughts

Every time I go to by something on my steamdeck I get an infinite loading screen, if I restart my deck it’s fine and I can go through with the purchase but I would have to restart if I turned my deck off.

Any help would be appreciated?

i wanted to use my Beat Studio Buds on my steam deck, but unfortunately it makes a crackling sound every few seconds. anyone know how to fix this?

Hi! I have a hard time deciding which one to buy from these 3 games and would be thankful for any critics and reviews:

• Hogwarts Legacy
• Uncharted: Legacy of Thieves Collection
• Resident Evil 4

My favourite games are RDR2, Detroit Become Human, Skyrim, Last of Us 1&2 and Fallout 4. Overall I like many open world, simulation, RPG and adventure games.

From one day to another this happened. I was playing fine last night and then I went to turn it on today and this happened

Hello,

I'm kinda newish to messing with Steam deck and was wondering which one of these is best for use on steam deck. I primarily want to use the one with most compatibility with Epic games but also that will take up less space. I heard Junkstore was really good and integrated really well so I'm leaning most towards that one. At the same time I hear nonsteamlaunchers can be used to put on netflix and streaming services. I hear emudeck which I already have can be used for streaming services as well.

Any opinions on this?

Hi, i cant see how to connect my realme buds to the steamdeck. I try to see them in steam deck bluetooth page after clicking the pair button on the buds case and nothing shows up.

Any tutorial or its not posible?

I Cannot use the Rokid max more than 20min with the Steam Deck. It is a new pair of glasses. I returned the First one because of the Same Problem. I Need to take it out and replug in. My Steak Deck usb-c Port works Fine with a hub and a display. I tried with the viture hub and a battery charger and same problem. I Play and the screen is gone. I will later try with an iPhone 15 and Samsung s23. But with the First pair i had the Same Problem. I will try another usbc cable… thanks for the help! Do I Need to remove the « Screen saver »? After 15-20min with the charger or without the charge? ( sorry I dont know the option in english…) it is to shutdown the Display when it is Not used… thanks for the help.

Donyou Guys have a steamdeck and a gaming PC? If so, when do you use the steamdeck? I’m considering a steamdeck but I’m not sure when I’m going to use it, cause I have a good gaming pc

Use GE-proton. You can see the cut scenes on story mode only with GE

Has anyone seen this message on steam deck after enabling cloud saves? This is when launching retroarch in game mode. Can't read what it says to try and fix it. Thanks!!

Is it possible to claim it on the steamdeck? Will it remain in my library also when I will unsuscribe from amazon prime?

I cant seam to get Space Marine Anniversary Edition to run, It just stops loading and returns the play button. Any help please? I also have verified files and it keeps saying there is one failed file to validate. I have uninstalled and reinstalled about 5 times and nothing.
