I see so many people talking about using their deck to play games while others are watching TV with their partners or whatever. But I just can’t do it. I hate not hearing the sound effects, music, voice acting when playing a game, and I tend to find myself not using the deck as often as I would like as a result.

Am I just weird?

Took this walking to work the other day

Hi folks! Picked up Pillars of Eternity and am planning to play through it on my Steam Deck during a recovery period in hospital. This is my first CRPG style game, and I am pretty new when it comes to fantasy settings as I have typically been more into Sci-Fi and shooters.

Is the White March DLC worth getting? Or should I play the base game and then if I actually really enjoy the game, add the DLC into the mix at the end game? I am seeing some conflicting reports.

I have already spent my meager budget in the Steam sale (surgery has wiped my savings) so I am wondering if I stretch to grab this. I see PoE 2 is also on a deep discount, but I think I will have to wait for that one.

Hey PCGaming folks! I don't know what happened this year, maybe reaching my mid-thirties finally unlocked the "dad game" part of my brain, and I started to all of a sudden get super into tactics games, after only having a passing interest in them my entire life.

Tactics games have been fun, but I want to sort of branch out and play some strategy games. 4X games like Civ have gone right over my head, but a friend said that Total War: Warhammer III would be up my alley.

I have had a look at it, and it does look pretty cool. But is this a good starting place for someone who is completely new to the strategy genre? Outside of the original Red Alert that I played when I was like 8 and just liked watching tanks going BOOM, I am basically a strategy baby and need some guidance!

So the recent bad news about Overwatch 2’s PvE cancellation was really disappointing, but honestly it kinda just reminded me that I hadn’t played OW2 in a long while, so I decided to jump in and just play some games.

Queue times for Ranked Any Role is 8-15 mins. Even Quick Play Any Role is giving me queue times of 5+ mins.

I’m in Japan but that also usually means I can get games in Australia and Korea. At launch I was getting games in seconds. Now it just kinda feels dead.

They just launched the new season too, which begs the question if I was silly enough to buy the Battlepass… how could I even go about completing it.

I understand the Blizzard hate here, but I would also be quite sad to see the game just disappear and not have further development to improve it. Is this just a my region problem, or is this common globally?
