Or from the car or in bed under the covers.
VR desktop streamers, do the same thing but optionally in multimonitor 4k and don’t have to look at our hands the whole time. Also can play on a recliner comfortably. My neck is in so much better shape since I started using my VR headset to stream instead of a phone or other handheld. Plus the screens are 20 feet away, nice on the eyes. And still take up 80 degrees of my field of view. Not sure what effective size that makes them, but it’s bigger and nicer looking than a theatre screen.
Disgusting. I have never and will never use my phone or a gaming console in the bathroom. I go to the bathroom, and then fucking leave. I’ll never understand sitting there forever.
I take it you don’t have kids.
Taking 10 or 15 minutes to “shit” is a much needed break. Especially when there’s another parent home (or the kids are old enough) and you can shut the door.
Then there’s the old “boss makes a dollar I make a dime” adage…
So glad for you to have properly functioning bowels. You’re among the lucky ones and should just be grateful and shut the fuck up
I envy your guts. I wish mine were as good as yours.
Imo the most iconic and representative of the best place for steam deck is while traveling.
8 hour flight? Do I have my deck?
Careful, if you spend 8 hours playing with your deck you might go blind
Been PC gaming on the couch for years now, either using a controller, trackball and 75% keyboard or a steam controller. Mouse pads are for work only as far as I’m concerned.
me doing all 3 in bed
Doing toilet?!
Please friend, do the
needfultoilet.
What do you use your phone for then?
No, wait, I don’t want to know.
I feel attacked (currently scrolling from the toilet)
I need to take a shit and I’m sad I can’t take my game with me (I don’t have a steam deck).
Buy a phone controller (like Razer Kishi or Razer Junglecat) and use some streaming technology to play your PC games on phone. My favourite is Sunshine/Moonlight combo, but Steam Link might work as well for you.
Just use steam (or ps/xb) remote play
(Upvoting from toilet)
(currently scrolling from the throne) Fixed that for you
LMAO
THE PORCELAIN THRONE!
I did not come to sit and wonder
I have come to SHIT LIKE THUNDER!
Bold of you to assume I didn’t build my battlestation around the shitter.
If you go to the bathroom you’re not playing Battlefield
As a lifelong PC gamer, I plug in my PC wherever I want it. It’s currently plugged into my TV…
…Gathering dust while I sit in front of it using my steam deck
“We play on the throne”
You people use the backbuttons?
On most games yes, a typical example is I bind them to the thumbstck buttons, because using them wares down the thumsticks faster
All the time
Always, when a game tries to force me to use a stick-click to sprint or I need to perform an action with ABXY while turning via right stick/pad.
Their positioning is sadly uncomfortable for me, since I do enjoy the ones on my modded ps5 controller.
There’s bumpers you can add to raise up the back paddles. I wonder if those might help.
I’ve been begging for such buttons since fucking 2009, and everyone laughed at me for wanting customizable controls.
Look who’s laughing now. (it’s me, with my mouse and keyboard and lack of friends and I never need to touch a controller again!)
Steam Input is amazing, and something that I feel doesn’t get nearly as much credit as it deserves. You can literally make anything do anything. You can even create on-screen rotary menus and shit.
I can stream my PS5 to my Steam Deck, and use the gyro to aim in an first person game. Like, really fucking easily. I set it up so if I’m playing Chiaki4Deck and press one of the back buttons, it swaps between gyro on and gyro off.
I saw a comment on Lemmy a while back where someone said they hated steam input and I just didn’t understand what possible issue anyone could ever have with it.
Mobile players do it on the go. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
