Hm, maybe that’s a problem with the instance you’re on? Mine loads fine.

What problems are you facing on the website exactly? I’m just accessing my instance’s website via Safari and it works pretty okay. I’d just recommend opening threads in a new tab, perhaps.

There isn’t really an alternative to Mlem at present, so the only thing you can do is to make due with it for now and / or use the website. I mainly use the website at present because Mlem doesn’t have a compact mode.

Fallout mostly. It’s all just so grey and boring and not fun at all. If I want to see a wasteland I can just go outside /s

Same experience as you with D4. Fun game but the always-on requirement is a tad annoying. Not deal-breaking for me, but I have had my fair share of rubber-banding on my SteamDeck, especially with Bluetooth headphones connected. D2R worked well offline, why not have an offline mode here?

Maybe because of nostalgia, but I will always come back to the Fable 1 and 2 OSTs. Especially Fable 1. Bowerstone especially I love.

Absolutely! Currently running Diablo 4 on the SteamDeck using Proton Experimental. Runs perfectly on medium-high settings at 45-50 fps. It’s insane how far we’ve come. When I first started using Linux over ten years ago, running Windows games was nigh-impossible. And Valve finally released their Steam client for Linux, the selection of games was … very limited.

I’ve heard lots of good things about Chained Echoes, a recently released JRPG in the style of those older NES / SNES games. Might be up your alley. Runs natively on Linux afaik.

I get a solid 45-50 fps in most areas and I set most things to high. Only a few select things like fog and shadow quality I set to low. It ran fine even out of the box. I would recommend using AMD FSR 2 in quality mode (from the in-game menu, not the SteamDeck internal FSR) for a somewhat more stable experience. Mind you I am pretty early on in the game (level 15), so maybe late-game performance is worse.

Diablo 4 has been a blast and runs great on the Deck! Battery life isn’t all that great but it’s also a non-issue mostly as you need an active Internet connection to play anyway. So it’s not like I’d be playing on the go.
