All I did: Add installer as Steam Game. Press play to install. Add launcher as Steam Game. Press play to open the b.net client and install w/e game you intend to. In both cases also force use of proton experimental or else it won’t start.
Did you get the b.net installer and launcher mixed up? I did the same uphrade just 3 days ago, 1tb upgrade from 64gb. Diablo works fine for me from the new ssd. On my old 64gb I got them mixed up once and it was a headache to sort out.
I bought the same. It’s perfect.
You are fine for now. You will notice when storage starts to run out. Most important thing right now is understanding how everything works on Linux and the Deck specifically. How it handles shaders, why storage runs out even if you dont have games on the internal storage, etc.
Start looking into som videos about the deck. Download cryo utilities and follow that setup, you learn a lot and speed your Deck up while at it. Only suggestion coming from a fellow 64gb user is to not use more than maybe 8gb of storage for the extra “ram” you can create. You will run out of space. And don’t install any games directly on the Deck whatsoever. Only use that external storage.
When, or if, you start to run out. A 1tb sd instead of your 128gb could be the easiest option and requires 0 tinkering. I swapped the internal storage myself just about 3 days ago and it was super easy. But just getting a 1tb sd is probably best for most people anyway.
Welcome to the gang. Enjoy. Your purchase was a great one.
Diablo 2: Lord of Destruction. I just had to put it on the list.
Best way to not do anything!
Yeah this would be mine as well, but I would need a small upgrade. To actually remember checking the notes.
World of Warcraft. Estimate around 15 000 hours.
League of Legends. A tough one to estimate. Maybe around 3 000.
Then its Diablo 2 or Warcraft 3. No idea which one is left outside of my top 3 tbh.
Sorry for not sticking to your to options. But. If your brother have a Switch, why not considering a Switch Pro Controller? Works great on PC, on Steam Deck, and of course Switch. I’m loving mine for PC gaming.
Bloodborne is my first Fromsoft game as well. And by far my favourite. The setting, story, everything about the whole game just got under my skin. I love it more than any Zelda game I grew up with. It’s wierd. I pretty much can’t even get into any other Souls game. I don’t like em that much. I can’t even complete Elden Ring. But I love me some Bloodborne. Any other game with similar as style?
Yes but it requires a certain behave-ability. Everyone who wanna check knows it’s me now. It’s a bit scary.
I’m mostly playing Diablo 4, some Steam Games and a little Game Pass. Am I ok on Linux? How is performance compared to windows?
Yeah some topics are a bit tough with loads of communities spread across different instances/servers. But overall it’s alright.
I wonder what the first topic of Mondays meeting at Reddit HQ will be? And if the overall feeling is gonna be positive or negative? Oh I wonder.
Tried it out a long time ago. Leveled up a bit but realised I could spam one dungeon over and over and level real fast… and after that I felt lost and eventually quit. How is the controller support?
