Thanks for the feedback everyone! I really thought you got to *be* the plastic duck. I appreciate your help, because I wasn’t expecting a glorified screensaver.

Placid Plastic Duck Simulator Steam Deck Compatibility

Placid Plastic Duck Simulator Steam Deck Compatibility - Lemmy.world

So I’ve been looking for a nice relaxing and/or easy game. Placid Plastic Duck simulator is now on sale. Steam says it’s Playable, but it isn’t listed as having controller support. Does anybody have experience with this game on Deck? Does it require keyboard mapping? Is there a community layout? Other not really game specific questions I wouldn’t mind an answer for: - Is there a way to check for community layouts for a game without owning it? - Does buying a game that doesn’t have a demo and then refunding it because its compatibility isn’t great count against me in some way? The refunds policy seems to mention something about abuse, but without a demo I have no other way of knowing. - Any recommendations for relaxing games that are great on Deck? Journey was okay, but didn’t capture my attention. I loved RiME. Best wishes and thanks in advance!

Apollo was six years old when it died. Bean is not even six months. Report issues as you find them (like you have), and be patient.

You keep saying this but haven’t posted logs showing their side of the conversation. I’ve had my difficulties reaching someone who wasn’t just copy and pasting prewritten responses from a script, but the way you’re avoiding answering peoples questions is suspicious.

Roy, is that you…?

Apple will sell you a laptop with dead pixels on the screen and refuse to replace it unless a certain minimum number are dead. I was furious.

Honest question, is there a good default config available somewhere or is what apt install fail2ban does good to go? All the tutorials I’ve found have left it to the reader to configure their own rules.

Tutorials on how to use and install the legal side of emulators are allowed, it’s when you encroach on copyright that things become questionable.

Do not post links to sources of copyrighted materials.

Pictures of your Deck running software only released on other systems are questionable. My biggest problem with /r/steamdeck is how it made me feel like I joined a bad faith community by buying the device.

It is important to note there are a handful of moderators and we discuss as a group before we take action. I am not the only voice, so you may opt to wait for others to comment.

I’m just so tired of the LOOK WHAT I CAN STEAL attitude of /r/steamdeck

I don’t know why that is, I was having trouble too. It’s just a link to Steve’s comment that says iPad before Android.
