    I dislike you still can't sort your Steam wishlist on the Steam Deck (without a mod, that is), & in spite of many other missing Steam footage on the Steam Deck, I still absolutely adore Steam outright. 💯

      How do I get this mod? It’s so frustrating that you can only sort it in desktop mode and not in gaming mode.

      @@chrishoward8500 I believe it's part of the Decky Loader system of mods, which is relatively easy to install, then you can sort your wishlist just like on Steam.

      @@gdot1803 Good point.
      To be more clear, you can get Decky Loader & then a mod within it to sort your wishlist the same way you could on Steam but on your Steam Deck, including by price, for example, which is super helpful for sales.

      I didn't even notice that! But glad it's not enough of a fault to keep you away from the platform entirely :p

    My favourite Steam feature: transfer games from one HDD to another, so you don't have to re-download them.

      GAH I mean to mention that and totally forgot! Which is weird because I literally just had....Left 4 Dead 2 do that I think?

    Steam is really easy to customize and navigate, although I'm not super used to the Big Screen Mode. I just haven't used it that much, and I'll always stay with the normal mode just by habit. I used to spend some time back in the earlier days to customize everything to my liking and then realized that it was a waste of time as it's rare that I socialize on that platform so nobody looks at my profile anyway lol! I'll spend that time gaming instead! Great video and keep up the good work!

      I think Big Screen Mode looks pretty slick, I just rarely use it when I'm on desktop ya know? Bwahaha I like to pretty mine up from time to time but yeah, I see what you mean. Appreciate it dude! :D

    Also - loving the sound quality of the new mic. Just a suggestion though, how about placing it on the other side so it doesn’t block the video monitor in the backdrop. I noticed some your videos usually showcase games you present on that monitor which I always thought was a nice touch

    • @YourPlayer2
      @YourPlayer2  3 місяці тому +1

      Glad to hear you like the new sound, AF! I'm a little limited on mic placement at the moment, but I'll see if I can find a better solution in the future! And definitely glad that those little details don't go unnoticed :D

    One feature that I am still holding out for is the option to skip age verification. I recall a few years back there was an option to skip, but no longer seems to work. Thanks for sharing your tips on other key features of the UI.

    • @YourPlayer2
      @YourPlayer2  3 місяці тому +1

      Oh yeah, that would be nice. I hadn't really considered how much time I spend on that screen- might be worth a video in its own right :p Thanks as always for the kindness and hanging out dude :)

    That new mic is vast upgrade, very crisp.
    I've always been super fond of how Steam handles soundtracks I've bought. I absolutely love soundtracks so having super quick access is great, also appreciate that they don't (seemingly) use any kind of DRM for them, too, so I'm not limited on where/how I listen to them. Though I have been wanting them to offer WAV's or FLAC's alongside the MP3's they use currently. GOG does it and it's super nice.

    • @YourPlayer2
      @YourPlayer2  3 місяці тому +1

      Thanks a bunch dude! I don't listen to a lot of soundtracks on Steam but I'll give it a whirl to see since I think I do have one or two floating around. Cool that there's no DRM to mess with.

    Wow I'm really shocked they gave you a refund for MGS despite being over the playtime. I've had a few situations that I tried something similar and it has never worked for me.

    • @YourPlayer2
      @YourPlayer2  3 місяці тому +2

      Dude right? I was pretty surprised since I figured they'd be super strict about it. But I guess since a collection of games naturally would take more time to explore than a single title maybe that's why they were a bit more lenient? Either way I'm not complaining!

    Hey Josh, speaking of Emulators, yesterday I Downloaded Xbox 360 Emulator with 3 Games: Forza Horizon, Forza Horizon 2 and Red Dead Redemption but every time I try to play F.H.2 I have a lot of Lag and the Emulator crashes, this is why I hate Emulators. :( Luckily I have those Games for Xbox 360 and One, it's just a matter of plugging both consoles but right now I'm too busy playing/recording PS2/PS3/PS4 Games. Off topic: Today I watched a video on UA-cam about a possible Red Dead Redemption Remastered PC version but it was just a rumor (hopefully it's true).

    • @YourPlayer2
      @YourPlayer2  3 місяці тому

      Oh very cool! Sorry to hear about the lag though- kinda rough for a Forza game :p At least you have the originals to fallback on! I sure wouldn't mine myself, though I still need to finish Red Dead 2!

    Next Fest has made me realise I wish there were timers on demos so we know which ones will stay up after Next Fest finishes and which ones won’t. Or when a dev wants to take a demo down, maybe have it where it stays up for a few more days with a timer so that we know what is leaving soon and can prioritise those demos. I have over 120 demos from my wishlisted games alone. And it would allow me to play more of them with such a simple feature, as I could plan better.

    • @YourPlayer2
      @YourPlayer2  3 місяці тому

      Oh, that'd be a nice feature for sure! I hadn't grabbed any demos through it just yet so that's a little lost on me but it makes sense. I feel ya on planning though- too many games to play and sometimes it's a chore just prioritizing which game I wanna wrap up!
