If I'd get a dime every time I read "... with a twist". :dizzy:

Broken Sword 5 - the Serpent's Curse gets spruced up, works on Steam Deck

I guess there's not much to be said about it. If you're into point and click, you already got it. If not, you wouldn't buy it.

Always nice to see such late updates, though.

Steam Deck gets a quieter fan again, and louder volume in the latest updates

Did I get that right, there's devices with too loud fans (hardware wise) and other ones - so it's a matter of luck at the moment what you'd get?

Here's how to take better quality screenshots on the Steam Deck

Quoting: JelloThe problem is I can't hold you to that. So many people have these really bad takes online. It always turns out wrong and I can't do anything about it. I will probably remember this 3-4 years later and be like didn't someone have this really bad take about a steam deck 2 never coming and be scratching my head where that bad take was.
Have a reminder with KAlarm. Once did this for talking to someone about semething 10 years in the future. (Already expired now.)

But yes, I feel you about prophets online.

There should be a "Patreon Linking" link in your User CP.
Thanks! Didn't read far enough. :unsure:

PS: To Be honest, I still don't understand all of it. If you're not automatically matched, you can set your supporter mail address, if that doesn't work, you can manually link - but the manual link text suggests that automatic linking is not yet working? Or not being reliable yet?

Deck Builders Round Up

From the heading, I really thought this would be a round-up of people building a new version of their game for Steam Deck. :D

Please Fix The Road will have an official version just for pirates
14 May 2022 at 5:30 pm UTC

I'm not sure it's useful to make the pirate's version different, apart from a buy option. It could make the version appeal to some people.

Steam Deck gets some quick fixes, main Steam Client update with Deck Verified Collections

To have a collection for each?
My manager would ask: "But where's the customer's benefit?" :)

I agree to the rest: Give us SELE erm... boolean operators.

Currently you cannot set it to just Playable titles.
I'm unsure why I would want to do that, though?

"Give me perfect" and "give me good (including perfect)" seem like the most interesting choices if you are looking for something to play on Deck...
I even have untested shown. That made me start playing The Coma, which is a perfect fit for the deck even though it is still untested.
I get that, too, but why would I want Playable without Verified?
