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?

Lots of emulated games, mostly. Retrodeck is kinda jank but when you figure it out it's such a convenient way of using most emulators you'll need.

May I ask, why did you go with Retrodeck instead of emudeck. Not judging or anything, just curious about the advantages.

[–] Venus 1 points 1 year ago (2 children)

I don't want the games all in my library. Retrodeck is one non-steam game addition in your library and then you launch it and all the emulated games are browsed through the retrodeck UI.

That’s how emudeck works too so it seems like they’re mostly the same. I did see that retro deck is working on getting online gaming working which would definitely get me to switch.

I get it. Fair enought. Altough you don't have to add the games to your library through Emudeck. You can mannage that through the desktop app.

Try Emudeck. You can use an extension in their app to add your games directly to steam.

That's, uh, literally the exact thing I explicitly said I don't want to do

oh you didn't say that in this thread though so I didn't know
