Can I hijack this to ask if anyone has been able to have animated game art without causing the interface to slow down and lag when you move through your library? I added animated art to 8 or so of my games, but the UI would frequently hang for a second or two as I was moving around. I had to take the animated artwork off, because it just wasn’t worth it. It looks so pretty though.
- Get Decky going on your Steam Deck, it works awesome and I have not had any big issues. The ones I use are: ProtonDB, Animation Changer, Storage Cleaner, VibrantDeck, Steam Grid DB, CSS Loader and Bluetooth. Adds many good things that I find useful. Get Decky and mess around to see what ones work best for you.
I had my OG 512 Deck for over a year, and never bothered putting Decky on it. I finally did it on my OLED the other day, and I absolutely love it. I’ve got HLTB, ProtonDB badges, Switch home screen, CSS Loader, and more. I’ve already spent an obscene amount of time just browsing all the custom artwork for games. I could not recommend Decky enough. Every Deck owner should be using it.
Which HDR option should we be taking for Cyberpunk?
Same. Got mine on Friday. Zero issues. I just need to finish moving over my Emudeck from my old Deck, and redownlod Battlenet and WoW and then I’m right back to where I was with the old Deck.
I love Skyrim, and enjoyed Fallout 3, but I just have zero interest in this game. I even installed it on Game Pass weeks ago to try streaming it to my Deck but can’t even bring myself to launch it. Everything I’ve ever read about it just screams mediocrity. I’m honestly deeply concerned for TES VI now.
You can easily play Gamepass games on the Deck, at home at least, if you have a gaming desktop (like I’d assume most Deck owners do). You just setup Moonlight/Sunshine, install Game Pass on your desktop, and stream your desktop to the Deck. It works flawlessly on every game I’ve tried so far. There’s zero input lag. The only way you can tell it isn’t actually running on the Deck is that the game looks/performs too well, your Deck fan doesn’t even turn on, and your battery lasts like 6 hours or more.
