For the record RetroDECK also got Matrix instance as well. But Revolt have so far been more active then Matrix (even tho we had that one for a long time).

But I do agree with that Discord is not a replacement for forums. You should not use Discord as your primary information hub.

For us our own wiki is the master of information. If something relevant is said in Revolt / Discord / Matrix we will add it to the wiki, people should not need to register various accounts to access the information.

Github is also where we handle "real" issues, while Discord / Matrix / Revolt is helpful for community members helping other with minor issues or general banter.

One reason why forums died out was the need for direct engagement and a sense of active community belonging, that they simply did not offer.

We also did not create all of these spaces from the beginning. Some community members did it, like the subreddit. Then you have a choice either you create it and own it, or a fan will.

Bazzite, Aurora, Proxmox and Ubuntu Server.

The marketing was really weird. I tought it also was a Zelda / God of War heavy metal game. They showed tons of trailers with the first boss but little after that. But the entire game was an RTS game and I did complete but... But was a little disappointed.

We hope to one day in the far far future implement ares as well. As we know some people don't like RetroArch.

But we rather focus on new systems first before adding alternatives.

All we need is more developers xD

RetroDECK does not delete any save states, they should all be there under retrodeck/states/

There where some bugs in RetroArch we have addressed in 0.9.1b that might have caused the menu option to disappear in RetroArch.

How ever save states are not a safe long term saving method as cores or emulators updates they might break compability with old states.

Always use in-game saves as your default saving method and states as temporary backups.

RetroDECK (a emulation suite known for its use on the Steam Deck system) has had a recent update and sub-sequent blog post

Now that's a post!

We hope to have 0.9.1b out during next week 😅

I think you could rate mod packs that combine them later.

As I think it's the packs like Fear Nightfall that makes the horror shine

Would not consider myself a filmmaker at all. But I use it to make some tutorials that I record with OBS for a wiki.

I also use it to make quick and dirty skit shorts that I put on various platforms.

I have been to European theaters that are dine-in and smaller. You got maybe 30 comfortable seats and with tray tables. You order your food / beverages 60 minutes before the movie.

During those 60 minutes you can wait in the lounge and have a drink with an appertife.

When the commercials start the food is served, then the movie starts and everyone is enjoying their meal and movie.

When the half way point hit they pause the movie as days of yore and you get a 20 minute break for going to the toilet and order more things.

They also serve tea and coffee during that time for free.

The kicker is that the tickets are little bit cheaper then the traditional big theater and the experience is 10 times better and more intimite since it only takes 30 people in one saloon.

Toothless?

You can follow the effort here to squish the bug once and for all.

If you got the issue and want to send your logs etc check the comment a bit down

We will release 0.8.4b

As 0.8.3b did not fix the issue for all users we will do a minor patch of 0.8.4b that should move the folders correctly to retrodeck/ES-DE/ and force set the correct path in ES_Config.

The 0.8.0b branch is still on the old manifest and it is a bit unwieldy to debug and we are making changes to our testing routines and the tester user program.

In some more positive news for @everyone. As soon as we got this fixed we will post our blogpost for August detailing some of the work we have done during the summertime (the new manifest).

There is https://github.com/ShadowBlip/OpenGamepadUI/

As well.

RetroDECK uses ES-DE but don't support native games yet, so pure ES-DE is better for this.

It's the spot we choose on the empty canvas for the RetroDECK logo.

But as a DM myself I hope we can both coexist.

The RetroDECK Team loves D&D and TRPGs

How about Gitea?

I agree, mistakes and vulnerabilites happen in all software commercial and open. Now I can only speak for RetroDECK but, we also make mistakes and need to do minor patches to fix those.

I think Jorge and the team handled it as you should: Be transparent, inform on all channels they can and learn from your mistakes.

Me personally have full confidence in them.

Those that try to hide or shift blame of mistakes are a bigger red flag in my book.

Jorge, Kyle and the others over at ublue is doing a great job with their Fedora spins.

I run Bazzite on all my computers and if you got a full AMD system you can even get full gamemode running by installing the deck image. This in turn give you the best controller experience for games, as Desktop Steam got several issues with Steam Input valve have not fixed yet.

But not all credit should go to them for this but also ChimeraOS team, Nobara and others that are constantly working on an improved gaming experience on Linux.

When developing RetroDECK Steam Input profiles I mainly use the Steam Deck with SteamOS and Bazzite on my desktop to test them.

Depends on the context of the setting and the story. I mostly tend to allow all official PC races without any objection. I see an adventurer as an outlier of society and not the norm.

In the games I tend to run I either swing between everything is allowed or just one is allowed.

If I want to do an mini adventure about a goblin clan fighting a kobold incursion, then everyone is playing goblins.

Happy Birthday
