      Cool, I was actually going to comment about that. It just sounds like a vocal pattern from you moving around while you talk, which i get. I do it, what I ended up doing was switching to a wider pickup pattern with my microphone and tune the noise gating for it as i moved around and talked. Introduces some more chances for background interference though

    When i bought my steam deck back in late april it was the best purchase decision ive ever made for any electronic device ever. Especially for gaming. Playing amazing PC games in handheld is a dream and it's also a huge emulator powerhouse. one the main reasons i bought it was because of emulation. It hasn't disappointed at all

    I got my Steam Deck OLED about a month and half ago, and it pretty much replaced my Switch. I’ve been playing the crap out of Horizon Zero Dawn, Outer Worlds, and the Final Fantasy Pixel Remasters. I’m definitely going to have to get Sea of Stars when it’s on sale at some point, since Chrono Trigger is one of my favorite RPGs of all time. Thanks!

But i been able to sneak my steam deck on the couch while hanging out or before bed backlog and even though it don't run great space marines 2 with some buddies been fun little device.

    • @anndre_wilson

    If I can make a suggestion, you mic was a little off in this video, it kept getting quiet and then back to normal, sounded like you were moving far away from the mic, but great video. Just ordered my deck yesterday

    • @anndre_wilson
      @anndre_wilson  7 днів тому

      I appreciate the suggestion! I didn't really notice it in post but now I def do - ill keep that noted tho
      also super excited for you to get your deck !!

      It's pumping due to bad compressor settings. Not sure if it's pre or post processing. If it's post, it's something he can play with after the fact.

    I have both and both are great. It really depends on what you personally think you'll use more.
    I used the ROG more as a desktop substitute for beefier games and the stram deck is my casual, low power carry around.

    • @anndre_wilson
      @anndre_wilson  38 хвилин тому

      do you lean towards both equally or more or less one of them

    Have got my hands on both LCD and OLED, have to say OLED is totally worth it. Beautiful screen, way better temp and fan noise, noticeable performance improvement and last but not least, the battery life.

    • @anndre_wilson
      @anndre_wilson  6 днів тому

      The screen is one of my favourite things - the rich contrast of the colours and such are very nice

    I was in the market for an ally. But i saw it on sale. £290 for the 512 version, i had to grab it quick. And good thing i did because it went oos immediately after.
    I managed to use the credit i had paid for the preorder. I opted against it, but ive been away from gaming for so long. I hope this can bring me back. Building a pc a few years ago didnt, but my main issue is sitting on a desk after working a deskjob

    • @anndre_wilson
      @anndre_wilson  6 днів тому

      I RESONATE with this so much in the sense of not wanting to continue sitting at the desk after hours
      Handheld is perfect for that

    It’s worth it if you don’t have a lot of money. You are losing out on features & horsepower but in a you get what you pay for world it’s fine. just don’t buy the 64 GB steam deck. You will end up with that entire SSD filled with junk files even if you never install a game on it. It doesn’t matter if you try to use sd cards. The 64 GB steam deck cannot function & should be taken off the market.

    • @anndre_wilson
      @anndre_wilson  6 днів тому

      Yeah 64 GB’s is wild because you can’t do much

    Ally X way better I am not giving up this thing. When steamdeck is gonna get more competitive in terms of hardware, maybe I will buy one and install an OS that won't hold me into one ecosystem only. We want 1080p OLED + VRR and yeah better performance, same or better as AllyX and people will buy it. There is no excuse to have the same perf as ally X since new apu is out btw.
