You know you could do that since forever with a laptop, yeah?
Laptop gamers are having LAN parties every single day.
Even though I have multiple desktops, I couldn't live without the flexibility of gaming wherever I want. It becomes so much more social if the person you are playing with sits next to you.
But good on you that you discovered the wonderfulness that is LAN. (yeah I know it is online, you get what I am saying)
Cool with regard to the Steam Deck, but ugh, Helldivers 2 is sooo pay-to-win...
Helldivers actually has the least intrusive monetization model i've ever seen, please stfu if you haven't actually played the game. You people are damaging the industry.
Pay 2 win? Where? Genuine question. Played it for 40h after launch, never once felt like paying money?
You're paying with your time in the queue
Haven't seen a queue in ages tbh. Weak argument, not to mention that it doesn't make any sense whatsoever
How is co-op mode?
That's badass!
Clean your camera lens
They aren't nudes, chill
Doesn’t matter; finished anyways /s
Own your brand, get that /s the fuck outta here
You right
have you ever even seen a nude
What are you, a cop?
Depeneds, do you have any nudes?
I'm so happy Valve pushed the Steam deck the way they did. Didn't expect many games, let alone, Helldivers 2 to run on Linux but it runs first try. No tinkering, nothing.
My brother in Christ, how did couch co-op on steam deck take this long to become an idea? Did you think they would need a steam deck as well in order for it to work? Did you never consider the steam deck's biggest selling point (mobility)?
This is some low-bar NoStupidQuestions level shit. Downvote me for being mean if you must but anyone reading this knows I'm right.
The most use my steam deck has had is playing guild wars 2 couch coop style with a friend. I have a wireless mouse and keyboard* and it's been fun.
* Actually 3 keyboards because the company shipped the wrong one twice. I'm keyboard rich.
My partner and I are playing through Bokuro this way, and it's so much fun :D
