Duty fees on steam decks now!

Getting hit with a 114$ duty fee to pay before delivery, wasn’t always that way, Canadian here.

Wouldn’t of ordered one if I knew that ;(

EDIT:

Just to clarify, yes I’m aware of the import fee which is the tax of my province, this is NOT what I’m talking about.

FedEx contacted me today, three days after my purchase to tell me I must pay this duty fee before it’s sent to me.

I was messing around with Decky and made a small plugin to check battery health. Might be useful for someone else.

It's very simple just displays health percentage (based on full vs design capacity),

No fancy features yet I mainly made it for myself to quickly check on things inside Gaming Mode.

Planning to maybe add cycle count, temp, or charge rate later if I can find reliable data for those.

Let me know if anything breaks or if there’s a feature you’d want!

Also... I did notice the KDE battery health menu after I started working on this

moraroy thought it would be cool of him to push his religion into his plugin and have it spam you with religious christian scripture if you have it open. Not sure what the point of it is except to fulfil his own desire to convert others without their consent. Doesn't belong in a plugin.

I already have a 32 inch 1440p 144Hz monitor, and it is a god send for steam deck gaming! I can play at 720p or 1440p, FSR seems to work well from 900p and integer scaling still produces a large enough image for me.

I'm currently playing metro 2033 redux at 900p (letterboxed at 20 inches), and it looks close to how 1440p looks while remaining above 90fps at medium settings. Fsr seems to tank the frame rate, so I'm just going to play letterboxed which I'm fine with due to the large screen. I'm glad I got this monitor I have because no other display in my house can make the steam deck look and run this well.

Here's an updated starter guide for setting up emulation on the Steam Deck using a handy tool called EmuDeck. This will download, install, and configure all of your emulators at once -- and you can integrate your favorite retro games directly in your SteamOS interface.

Are there any, and if there are what are they? Im talking about the games that you tried and immediately noped out of playing them cause of the steam deck "joysticks", if thats what you could call them. Im still not sure how to refer to them...

I was looking at buying Blue Prince and when I came to the subreddit looking for reviews/bug reports, pretty much everything is from a month ago. It looks like people were having a few different issues with it, so I was wondering how it plays now and if it truly is playable.

Title ^

I’m new to this handheld industry and steam in general. I mainly game on Xbox and ps5. After watching numerous videos and reading threads it seems a majority of people mod their SD. Does anyone just use their SD as a simple pick up and play with steam games?

I’m getting my SD before Friday and I plan to hopefully just use it as a play and go system. I have my laptop I can use for anything else (remote play, cloud gaming)

Currently playing Final Fantasy Tactics, The Lion War Mod using Duckstation and it's awesome! The joy of playing a 25+ year old game on a PlayStation 1 emulator using a Playstation 4 controller while on the toilet or sitting on my couch with my newborn is my version of the future. We made it!

How are you feeling after owning the steam deck for however long?

Is the Deck the end all be all system? Absolutely not, its power and docking performance leaves much to be desired, but thanks to the deck my steam library has surpassed my Xbox library I’ve been building since the 360 era. Speaking of Xbox I’m not too positive about its future so my steam library passing it up doesn’t make me feel too bad.

What’s your game plan for future of gaming? Are you full team Steam now? I’ve even built my own powerful gaming pc because of it, I’m just trying to convince my friends to jump ship.

Do you have some reccomendations for chill games I can play during long workshops and meetings when I work from home? During my working week I have time to play roughly 5 hours but I need to listen, so it can't be too distracting or too many cutscenes as I can not listen to 100% what is happening.

Previously Enjoyed Games: Baldurs Gate 3, Souls games, Minecraft, Sifu, Death Stranding, Divinitiy Original Sin 2

Preferred Genres: RPGs, sandbox games that are not too overwhelming with mechanics, + I'm open to try any genre which is not roguelike (I'm a relatively new gamer so didn't try everything yet).

Budget: no constraints

Other Notes: Please no farming games like Stardew Valley or the usually mentioned roguelites (Slay the Spire, Balatro, Hades...I played these all) as I never get hooked by these for more than 10 hours. Idk why...I wish I would love roguelikes as everyone else lol

And yes I still finish my work so don't worry about that! :P

Hey all, I hope this is allowed. I am starting chemo next week and looking for games that don't require an insane amount of thought, but also have meaningful progression to play during chemo the upcoming months. I generally enjoy RPGs/strategy games, but worried some of my normals might be too hard. Not looking for like an Elden Ring or something that requires a lot of dexterity. I redownloaded Midnight Suns, and have that prepped and ready, but some of those fights might get too hard pending brain fog, and there's so so so much talking between them. I have Vampire Survivors queue'd up as well, but that's a lot of movement. Hopefully nothing with an insane amount of reading, even tho I like a good story. I was considering Crashlands? Also need something that can pause at any moment without issues as I might be interrupted at any time. Any other good suggestions?

Previously Enjoyed Games: Midnight Suns, Vampire Survivors, used to do a lot of MMOs, Final Fantasies, Hogwarts Legacy etc.

  • Preferred Genres: Love RPGs, but mostly games that have meaningful progression, I really like seeing things progress.
  • Budget: Probably fine with whatever here, want to queue up multiple things so I have a good backlog ready.
  • Other Notes: TLDR: Meaningful progression, runs great on deck, not too complicated due to chemo brain fog, pause at any moment.

Thanks for any and all help!

Some posts have kicked off megathreads by how repetitive the posts are.
