How many steam deck folks are here and what are you playing? (beehaw.org)

Right now, I’m playing the early access version of Baldurs Gate 3. I’m getting ready to put it down (frustrated: BG3 has the potential to be good, but without controller support, I’m getting really frustrated with the UI. ) and switch to Yakuza Like a Dragon.

What are you playing now and what are you looking forward to playing next?

Damn that's sad, I knew of the joy-con drift issue but the shoulder button issue is new to me. Wish there was some alternative I could think of to help besides new joy-cons which IIRC are pretty expensive. Sorry!. Steam deck hardware is awesome for what it's worth, very repairable, relatively cheap replacement parts, good performance for the price, and you can go very far down the rabbit-hole with software if you are into that sort of thing. Limited exclusively to switch emulation I wouldn't recommend it right now at least, but if you're looking for a more general handheld gaming platform it can't be beat IMO.

The joycons are pretty trash. I've never had a controller break on me in my life. I still have my next controllers. But both joy-cons are broken.
