I think another studio was handling a lot of it, so it may be less jank than a typical Bethesda game.
That's unfortunate, sorry to hear about your deck.
The game was a bit of a slow burn at first for me, but the more I've played the more I've gotten hooked by it. Now it's all I've thought about for days.
I can confirm I was able to watch 3 different videos in the Rumpus room over the past few days.
All the videos have worked for me on my OLED deck afaik, and recent patches mentioned fixing videos.
Japan in general has weird copyright/patent laws. For example the whole palworld patent lawsuits.
Good news is it probably won't affect people outside of Japan, except that it will stunt games/etc made in Japan.
There were hundreds of people who worked on the game, and the game itself went out of it's way to feature trans characters. I doubt there's a single AAA game or mass produced product out there that isn't partially owned by some individual who you don't want to support, so I think singling out hogwarts legacy in particular to boycott is kind of meaningless.
You could argue that by boycotting it you're sending a message, and just singling it out as an example, but the game already sold incredibly well and is a huge success. I don't think there's any reason at this point that someone who grew up enjoying harry potter and wants to play the game should feel bad about it. Seems silly to deny yourself something you might enjoy over some small change going to a billionaire you don't like.
Needs to be an official lemmy theme.
Looks like almost all of this update is focused on improving support for other handheld devices.
Awesome, glad to hear it!
Someone very recently was complaining about ubisoft not working on their deck, so ubisoft may have changed something.
Not an ideal solution, but if you have a working install for it you may be able to copy your prefix folder for the game to her deck.
Alternatively you might be able to install and get her set up on a windows PC, then copy the install folder from that. This will be trickier though since you'll need to probably copy install and config folders for both the game and ubisoft connect I'm guessing.
Great writeup as always!
The Project Hailstorm link isn't working for me, it's showing an app ID of 338 instead of 3388760 so I'm guessing it got cut off. It's an interesting looking game though, I'll be sure to check it out.
Currently I'm playing 1000xResist, and it's absolutely hooked me. I'm a sucker for games that that jump back and forth in time, showing me a very different future and a relatable past, leaving me to puzzle about what happened to cause the changes. Interesting world building or large scale mysteries like that tend to grab my interest much faster than character/story drama, so I really appreciate when a game hooks me that way as they set up everything else.

@everyone The Music Control plugin is delisted and should be uninstalled as it causes Steam BPM to "bootloop" in newer versions of Decky Loader such as the current pre-releases of 3.X.X. We also have users experiencing the same issue without that plugin installed so I would recommend manually deleting one plugin at a time to see which plugin is effecting you. You will need to delete any effected plugin(s) from
~/homebrew/plugins/(You will need to use sudo to delete the files, suggest using konsole and usingsudo rm -r /path/to/plugin). Pressing Ctrl+Alt+Semicolon on a USB keyboard connected to your deck should allow you to bypass the "bootloops" and delete the plugin. Best place for discussion is <#960284126701813770>. Best of luck!
Additionally the Decky recorder plugin can prevent you from being able to use desktop mode, just giving you a black screen instead (funnily enough having steam recording turned on can do the same thing), so it's also recommended to be uninstalled.
If you're affected by any of these issues, you will want to fix it using the console. You can bypass the loop by pressing Ctrl+alt+; and then try to enter desktop mode. If you can't get into desktop mode, you can switch to a terminal in game mode by pressing ctrl+alt+f5 once you're loaded into steam OS.
Once in a terminal, you can navigate to the plugin folder with the command cd ~/homebrew/plugin, use the command ls to see all the installed plugins, and then use sudo rm -r pluginfoldername to delete individual ones.
If removing plugins doesn't fix things for you, you can instead run curl -L https://github.com/SteamDeckHomebrew/decky-installer/releases/latest/download/uninstall.sh | sh to fully uninstall Decky loader and all plugins. Afterwards you can reinstall without the problematic plugins.
When you've finished running commands, you can type reboot to restart your deck.
If you're affected and having trouble getting it fixed, feel free to ask for help here or on the Decky discord server.
EDIT: We have an updated list of plugins that are breaking boot:
- DeckRoulette 1.1.3-0950f29
- GameView Music 1.1.0-1
- MicroSDeck 0.9.1-1 (see list below)
- MusicControl 1.1.5 (see list below)
- Network Info 1.0.1-13b914b
- Remote Play Whatever 1.0.0
- System Toolbox 1.0.2-1
Thankfully a new pre-release of Decky Loader came out this morning and claims to have fixed the issue.

I think part of Blue Prince for me is that I keep discovering additional layers of depth to it. They keep giving me reasons to go back and re-evaluate rooms, and I have a dozen different larger puzzles that I'm sorting out the details on as I go. I also appreciate the steady permanent improvements to the rooms and my base resources, and it's really cool whenever I find a new mechanic to abuse for easier future runs.
The storytelling is vague, I've "finished" the main objective of finding room 46 but the pieces of the story I've put together suggest there's a much more important conclusion to reach.
