Bought several to share through Family Beta, but the two for me were Bravely Default II and Catlateral Damage. Played the first two Bravely games on the DS, and the other game I got just looks like fun.

As for what I'm playing? Backlog 😅 When I'm in the mood for story rich I'm playing Death Stranding. When I'm in the mood for just something fun I'm playing Peglin.

I'm using a pair of Corsair HS55 via Bluetooth without any issues. Got them on sale cheap-ish and I'm happy. Only used the mic when I've had it connected to my phone and been told there's no noticable difference between the headset mic and the phone mic.

Forza Horizon 4 - I had to search to the acronym

The developer of Slay the Princess is encouraging those who can't afford it to pirate the game as a new Markiplier video goes viral. in c/pcgaming@lemmy.ca

It's a great game. The devs seem really chill on their discord server. I highly suggest people try this game out even if visual novels aren't your usual genre of games.

New to manga. I've finished Death Note, Berserk, Assassination Classroom, and Attack on Titan. What should I read next? in c/manga@lemmy.ml

The Promised Neverland does drag a bit, but it does finally end.

Nauiscaa is one of my all time favorites, both the manga and the movie. My dad had the comic book store special order Nauiscaa for him as it came out translated into English. He finally let me read the whole thing back around 2000/2001. I think it just had it's 40th anniversary, so that may be why it's popping up again.

Memphis design for the colors and patterns, Y2K for the colorful translucent electronics, and Frutiger Aero for the GUIs.

I just bought myself a pair of parachute pants! They're not nearly as loud as the wind breaker suits of the 90s and early 00s, but I love them.

[Discussion] Do you still use your Steam Deck much? in c/steamdeck@sopuli.xyz

[–] SuzyQ@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 month ago

Almost daily. I have treatment resistant radial styloid tenosynovitis so when that flares up nothing is easy to play.

Initially the games were those on the lighter side, but now I've moved on to more graphically intensive games (sometimes having to tweak settings, sometimes not).

When I want a bigger screen I bust out the dock and set up the portable monitor I bought for it - and, depending on what I'm playing I'll either get out the mouse and keyboard or the controller.

I don't have a set space for my setup so having the ability to pack up everything is a huge plus.

I have the 512GB LCD model and recently put in a 1.5TB SD card and am loving being able to install bigger games. So far I haven't noticed any real lag vs it being installed on the internal SSD. That may be an option for you.

When funds allow I will be upgrading my internal SSD to a 2TB, but, for now, the SD card works fine

Portable monitor for steamdeck? (sh.itjust.works)

I am in need of some help. I'm trying to find a good portable monitor for my steamdeck. I don't need it to be huge, 12inches minimum, but I'm not having much luck with my own research. I would like low latency, high refresh rate, and colors as close to the same as on the og LCD deck (which is what I have).

I have the official dock, so it would need to be able to connect through that as well.

Thanks in advance for any help!

Yes, different instance account but same user. I link all my instance accounts on my profile page for transparency.

FINALLY after months of frustration I have figured it out - and it was with the help of my 8yo (8 year old [child]). 8yo is the 7yo from my first post. A birthday came and went while figuring this mess out.

I believe this was a fault of the Microsoft parental controls with Minecraft, and various Minecraft online spin-off games, and NOT Nintendo's.

8yo added 6yo as a Cross-platform friend using 6yo's Xbox gamertag on Minecraft on their tablet. Then we all went through the hand mom your switches so she can type this mess out for you and they added each other as friends. Problem solved?! Nope. Not quite yet. This was step one.

Step two was me going into the Xbox Family app on my phone, and changing the following settings:

Decide if [redacted] can add friends without your approval ✅ Allowed
Choose who [redacted] can communicate with on Xbox Live ✅ Everyone

Under Minecraft specifically

See and upload community creations: Decide whose community creations [redacted] can see. Blocking this may affect whether [redacted] can upload their own creations to games. ✅ Everyone
Clubs: This lets [redacted] create, join, and follow clubs for all allowed games, including Minecraft Realms. ✅ Allowed

I had already allowed the Minecraft multiplayer option before and that alone didn't work.

I also set up everyone as a favorite friend, and they can all play together across Minecraft, Minecraft Dungeons, and Minecraft Legends on their switches.

I feel like this process was way too convoluted. There may be some options I turned on that don't need to be on, but I'm including what I did specifically on the off chance that there's another frustrated parent out there with multiple kids wanting to play local multiplayer on Minecraft on their switches while logged into their Microsoft account.
