Playing Helldivers 2. My brother on the desktop on the living room TV. Me on the SteamDeck on the couch next to him. Playing co-op together.

    Yeah it doesn’t run great and I won’t be doing it often (I don’t like playing shooters with controllers anyway) but worked well enough for this particular use-case.

    The desktop was Linux also 😃

    E: to be clear, it ran very smooth at ~55FPS, with no frame drops, but with lots of jaggies. Icons are illegible even on my 75" TV.

      I’ve been playing it by streaming from my home PC using moonlight. runs well and the battery lasts a long time. still have the issue of trying to play helldivers with controller, but it’s better. and theoretically since it’s not doing the rendering you can hook up an external monitor plus m+k and it’ll still run well

          Moonlight on the deck, sunshine on the PC, tailscale for gloud gaming. Tailscale released a bash script for make the deck install very easy.

          I did it the other day for be able to enjoy HFW when not at home and it works much better that Steamlink.
