It impacts you financially and the time lost in setting up bazzite. Your family misses you.
Isn't bazzite like really straightforward to set up? I only did it on a thinkpad, not a deck though.
Your family needs to replace that 2tb with 500gb and then you’ll be all set!
Children render frames incredibly slowly, and usually in crayon. I can't imagine between that and lack of necessary math skills you wouldn't get better performance by replacing the family with additional steamdecks of any storage capacity.
What does the 500 Gb model have to do with anything?
I think that OP is providing all details they think might be relevant, so whether they a little confused or not they got the spirit and I appreciate it.
I was under the impression each model performed differently, that's why I specified the model. It clearly doesn't, so eh. Sorry. Didnt think it was that upsetting
You're doing great lol. Back in my helpdesk days I loved talking to people who overshared to be helpful.
Nothing? I just think maybe it performs better with more space? Who cares tbh
No, not really. Of course if you are using a disk that's full you're going to have issues but as long as you have 16Gb free the performance will largely be the same for gaming.
I believe OP is either a child, or perhaps trolling.
Read that username and tell me that isn't an Xbox live gamertag from 2008.
Oh nice. Excuse me if I made a mistake in thinking each model performed differently. It clearly doesn't matter, I made an honest mistake. Apparantly it's a big deal here so by all means keep talking shit.
That's not really how it works. It'll load quicker than on the 64 GB eMMC model, but that's due to different technologies and nothing to do with storage space.
I guess OP believes that the disc size has a link with the Deck's performance? 🤔
I mean, the 64 Gb emmc does have lower performance on load times which could pose problems on certain games beyond just lengthening loading times, but NMS isn't one of these games.
It’s crazy how this company turned a disaster into a success. They asked for patience to deliver on promises, provided transparency, then actually delivered.
So, so many companies should be taking notes.
Yeah, and in a weird way it makes me feel safer about buying future games from them. I know that no matter what state their future games launch in, that they'll keep working on them until they're good. If NMS had come out in better shape, I wouldn't have that confidence that they'll stand behind a failure until it's fixed.
It’s even more incredible if you consider what they came from, Joe Danger, to a large game. Being a fan of Joe Danger I didn’t fall for the hype, as it seemed way too ambitious of a game. And then? It’s 8 years of free updates adding content even beyond what was initially promised.
Aside from the over promising at the beginning, or rushing the game launch depending on how you want to see it, it’s really great stuff. I cannot think of any other game starting as overwhelming negative, forcing Sony to work proper refund systems, to absolutely beloved by everyone.
Thanks for this! I was definitely curious about how it would run.
And thank you for not mocking my mistake about mentioning the model!
