Valve please take the docked expierence more serious for steam deck 2. Give us a dock with egpu and expandable storage. A steam controller 2 wouldn't hurt either.
Yeah, as it stands now the dock experience is an afterthought. Great for those who don't own a PC but it could be better for all users.
Didn't the dock just get a firmware upgrade that can enable fps on your monitors? I haven't seen this talked about hardly at all with it's most recent update. And can't you put an m.2 into it? Oh wait that's a different aftermarket dock dang.
I use the deck docked a lot, sea of thieves first then pop it out and into hades in bed while my son sleeps next to me.
Beautiful life.
Valve's dock should be the premium expierence. It does no better than a $20 amazon dock. If it had a built in egpu and expandable storage, the steam deck could actually be a real alternative to a gaming console or a decktop pc. Even if it cost as much as another steamdeck, I'd still buy it.
I mean damn . People just want everything. Maybe that’s not what they were going for. Maybe they were going for portable, handheld gaming pc. And just threw a 🍒 on top with the dock. People just aren’t satisfied no matter what a company does. I’m new to pc but that’s one thing I’ve noticed about the “pc” community. Is that not all but there’s always some spoiled cats who are never satisfied.
Week 3 with no coffee was a breeze. Glad I’m not addicted to caffeine anymore my anxiety was through the roof and I wasn’t sleeping well. Still love seeing people enjoying it such as yourself! Great cup!
I love making coffee so much. Did Tea for a year and that was great but missed this process
Waiting for the sumner to buy one, steamdeck has so much value, just playing while relaxing in bed with the dog and wife is priceless
I'd recommend getting one new. I've ran into some software issues.. buggines that I wish wasn't there. I'd feel more confident in its performance if it were new. Still that did save a few bucks! The OLED version is the superior model now anyway. I wish I would have waited for that one. But both I'm sure rock pretty hard!❤😮🎉
not gonna lie came for the tech, locked in when i saw the coffee
portable poppas. What a line
You can play alot of Final Fantasy 14 on the free trial and you can go through the story completely single player if you want to!
Thank you for another cup Julien. ☕
4:54 Anyone else thought that was their own eyes and not the focus?!
I believe you can make an espresso using aeropress, no idea how lol.
I just puchased a sage bambino plus
Been watching the final fantasy play streams, check out the Golden Sun games on Game Boy advance. My favorite JRPG of all time and the games that introduced me to the genre and made me fall in love with it.
Great video.
I mainly use the dock to charge and as a stand while running updates on the device. I am using the DP instead of HDMI (though it makes no difference) and my monitors will enter sleep mode if the source isn't detected in a few seconds making the initial docking experience awful on Deck. Coupled with the fact that my original LCD Deck could not find my keyboard in Bluetooth mode I was constantly removing my receivers from my gaming PC. It just became pointless, if you have a PC specifically for gaming just setup Big Picture Mode to boot upon start up. I do see the practicality of the Deck if that's the only device but having a PC it became more of a headache for me. The ability move from PC to Deck in seconds with no manual save management makes the experience so much better.
Which 8bitdo pro 2 controller uses a wireless dongle? The link you included is for the Bluetooth version.
Aeropress is unmatched in ease of use, portability, and quality of output… kinda like the steam deck/switch load out
Watching this video from my docked Steam Deck in desktop mode with mouse and keyboard plugged in.
heck yea man
Whats up JD! I really love these kind of videos when you talk about your gear. Im not sure if you have ever done one but would love to see a similar video, but about your streaming gear, capture cards and so on. Other than that, keep it up brother, great stuff as always!
Dude! Nice Aeropress! I've been eyeballing them since they came out.
they are amazing
I’ve got that hades startup too lol so clean
Its so sick!
I was in the market for a keyboard and mouse. Thanks for the recommendation
I'm only here for the aeropress. Looks great.
just kidding great video as always sir.
I watched Linus rank many different consoles and there were six consoles that made S-tier…
Super NES
Switch
Xbox 360
PlayStation
PlayStation 2
PlayStation 4
I actually wouldn’t argue with that although I would take off Xbox 360 and might put PS4 on A-tier. Between that six, my all-time favorite is PS1. I played it the longest (1996-2002). I beat the most games from that library. I was ages 15-21. Again, I’m a December baby. I was a sophomore in high school when I first got a PS1 back on Sept 2, 1996 (Labor Day).
By the time PS2 came out, I was working and had a gf that I was sorta growing out of playing video games the same way I grew out of wrestling by age 11-12. While I did love my PS2 and it did have the best overall library from the 6th gen, I also found it a bit overrated. Kutaragi overhyped the specs. It at times looked worse than Dreamcast. Emotion Engine, my ass! I didn’t think PlayStation gave us a real Emotion Engine until PS3 and PS4.
Among that six S-tier consoles, the library I can replay over and over is from Super Nintendo as we called it back then. Not (snes which rhymes with mess). And it’s mainly thanks to Super Mario World and 2D fighting games like SF2: Turbo and MK2. The controllers remains one of the best and most comfortable of all-time. This was peak 2D era back in the 4th gen.
While Super NES is the most replayable for me with arguably one of the greatest gaming libraries ever and at least among all Nintendo systems, I actually believe the Switch is Nintendo’s greatest product. The Switch has close to 11,000 games. I don’t know how Nintendo can ever top the Switch? More power doesn’t mean the successor will be better. Look at PS5.
Would having more power also delay AAA titles? Wouldn’t that mean bigger budgets and longer development time? Again, look at the PS5. It’s turning 4 near the end of this year and it feels the 9th gen is a lost generation when it comes to games. The experiences aren’t any different. It’s just prettier graphics and that’s it. Nintendo tends to also have a W-L pattern…
NES: W
Super NES: W
Nintendo 64: L (compared to PS1)
GameCube: L
Wii: W
Wii U: L
Switch W
I was playing Mario Kart 8 Deluxe the other day, and I started thinking, how the hell is Nintendo going to top that game? I think MK8 is the perfect Mario Kart game. We had Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom separated by 6 years. How different were they from each other? How much improvement did TotK have over BotW? Felt like more of the same. What if Switch 2 is also more of the same?
I will give this to Nintendo, they are the greatest gaming company to ever exist. Now I’m not some Nintendo fanboy who loves everything they do. I’m not into Pokémon or Zelda. I saw a poll from Julien yesterday and Zelda beat Final Fantasy 71% to 29%. I’m on the FF side just like I prefer PSP over DS and Vita over 3DS. But Nintendo knows how to make fun games.
Take the Wii U for example. That’s the worst console ever by Nintendo. But games like Super Mario 3D World and Mario Kart 8 did start from there. BotW was originally designed for that system like Twilight Princess was for GameCube. As big of a sales flop Wii U was, it still had a better library than most other consoles.
Here’s another example. You know what’s my favorite console to emulate on the Steam Deck? The Wii! The right touchpad helps! I think Wii is underrated because gamers hated that motion control crap while the GameCube is becoming slightly overrated thanks to 90s babies’ childhood nostalgia for it. The Wii does technically play GCN games. It’s basically GameCube Pro with motion controls. Who knew the Wii would be my favorite console to emulate on the Steam Deck?
I didn’t love the Wii when I had it and it was a launch day Wii. It quickly collected dust after I beat Twilight Princess and I got bored of Wii Sports pretty fast after a week. I see all these TH-camrs talking about another Chinese handheld and people asking if it can play PS2 and GameCube? Why no mention of the Wii? Dolphin can emulate both. My 10 Wii games on the Steam Deck…
Donkey Kong Country Returns
Kirby’s Return to Dreamland
Klonoa
Mario Kart Wii
New Super Mario Bros. Wii
Sonic Colors
Sonic Riders: Zero Gravity
Super Mario Galaxy
Super Mario Galaxy 2
The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess
I have Muramusa: The Demon Blade on my Vita, so I didn’t download it for my Deck. Muramusa played perfectly on my Z Flip 3 when I had it. Too bad I don’t own a handheld with OLED, but my Z Flip 3 does have OLED, so I may play it there again.
GameCube gave us more Link while Wii gave us more Mario who I prefer. And Twilight Princess remains my favorite Zelda game ever. It’s the only Zelda game I’ve beaten. I do prefer Double Dash over MK Wii although the latter is growing on me since it has way more tracks. I still can’t stand Super Mario Sunshine. The F.L.U.D.D. crap still plays clunky for me.
GCN did have F-Zero GX and my favorite sports game ever: NBA Street Vol. 2. I have the ROM for both GCN and Xbox. The latter was the one I actually owned. The physical copy is somewhere at my dad’s apartment. I tend to play the GCN version more because Dolphin doesn’t drain battery as fast and it’s the far better developed emulator than Xemu. Xemu would make my Deck hot after 15 minutes and then the game would start to lag.
More people should give more love to the Wii. It was ranked higher than the GCN in Linus’ tier. Wii was in A-tier while GCN was in B-tier. GCN only sold 21M and was actually considered a disappointment. Miyamoto said it. But emulation and nostalgia plays a part with revisionist history. It’s like 90s babies loving the SW Prequels and they think Hayden is a great actor. My generation would say, HELL NO! And we’re the same age as Hayden.
If I can include handhelds to put on Linus’ tiers, I would put Steam Deck as S-tier. It can play Super NES, PS1, and PS2 perfectly and all upscaled. It can emulate several more consoles including my favorite F-tier console: Atari Jaguar. It can emulate Switch and has close to the power of the base PS4 and has games like FF7 Remake, God of War (2018), Uncharted 4, MGS5, and so on, and so on.
Julien is correct. You only need Steam and Nintendo to fulfill your gaming needs. And did you hear the recent news coming from Square Enix? They’re trying to break away from their PS5 exclusivity. I hope this speeds up FF7 Rebirth to come to Steam as soon as next year. But I’m hearing from RGT 85 that he didn’t love Rebirth. Shawn said he loved Remake but not Rebirth. He thought Rebirth had too much padding.
1. Steam Deck
2. Nintendo Switch
Those are your GOATs and the only handhelds you need in your life. Well, until their successors comes out. I’d include PS Vita but it’s not required. I prefer the PS2 version of FFX and God of War than the Vita ports. GoW on PS2 ran at 60 fps while the Vita is only at 30. You don’t need an Odin 2, Anbernic, or Retroid. Deck and Switch is all you will ever need.
I was almost going to buy a RG405M for only $100 last weekend but decided not to. What’s the point? The 4:3 aspect ratio? The smaller form factor? My Z Flip 3 and Deck can emulate all those systems the Anbernic can do. While the RG405M can’t emulate Xbox and Wii. Those Chinese handhelds have awful resale value being they’re obscure brands. I rarely trust things I buy from AliExpress. I bought hats and tees that didn’t come out right.
I do at times bring my Switch Lite if I know I will use all the battery life from my Deck because I can play FF7 Remake for more than 2 hours in a day. And the Switch Lite is much quicker to charge in my car. How come people trash the Lite so much? It has a real d-pad and I need it for my Genesis and Street Fighter II compilations. I think the Lite is amazing to pack all that power in that smaller size barely longer, taller, and heavier than a Vita.
The reason why I didn’t care for the GBA, DS, and 3DS is I always found them underpowered. It really wasn’t until the Switch when Nintendo finally put more beef in their hardware thanks to Nvidia. I wanted console-like graphics and we didn’t get that from Nintendo until 2017. And Switch actually had L2/R2 triggers that the Vita lacked and two analog sticks. Joy-Cons did sacrifice a d-pad. It came back for the Lite, but it’s d-pad is mid.
I’m tired of playing old games. Hence, why zero interest with an Odin 2. I want to play AAA games I missed during the last 15+ years and Steam Deck provides that. Forget Super NES, Switch, PS1, PS2, and PS4 as S-tier when Steam Deck surpasses them all as the one to rule them all. It’s the greatest gaming device ever made.
Great video bro! 🫶
I still like Nintendo Switch more
Yeah but they dont play the same games
Well 😊 they can caugh caugh yuzu caugh.
To me, they are equally as good. Switch = Xenoblade and Physical, Steam Deck Trails in the Sky, Cold Steel I and II, & FFXIV. What other lacks the other has but no one can go wrong with the Switch.
@@hutchings2023I thought we couldn’t use yuzu anymore
@@tehgusbus2716you can't download the original version eazy peezy from the yuzu site. There are alternatives and backups and if you already had it installed you're good. It still works. Yuzu just can't keep taking payments and running the website. Personally I think Nintendo should utilize the talents and software for their own devices, since they threatened yuzu and seized their code. Emulation is way too powerful to be ignored and not implemented into current or upcoming hardware/consoles. If they don't do it, we'll just do it better and their sales will continue to decline and they can watch us play in higher fps, better mods, user made textures, etc and having a superior experience than what they are producing mainstream. 😮😂❤
U Breyer stop drinking all that coffee n get some sleep. U like hella tired
