What’s your go-to game to “grind” on the Steam Deck? With the portability I imagine a lot of the community takes advantage of grinding levels/resources/materials/unlockables on games while away from their gaming setup.eam Deck allows me to chill in bed, on the couch, or away from my desk in general and still game.

Any suggestions?

    Been struggling trying to get into this. It’s so complicated but really my main issue that has me at a dead halt is that I don’t know how to get my characters to equip weapons. It doesn’t work.

        I played the tutorial and it’s just not working when they tell me to do it. Tried restarting it and even just making a non tutorial world but still not working. I can’t click on equip. When I do it doesn’t select the menu option but rather selects the ground underneath it or the weapon itself while deselecting the character.

      It took me like 10 tries, I’m currently not playing it. That’s how hard it is lol. I feel like the way to learn is just to play it with the intention of dying and starting over. Learn the controls with tutorials, but yes it is insanely hard to get into I think. I always end up dealing with some crazy fire situation and then everyone dies. It’s pretty difficult :(

      definitely would recommend some tutorials from their wiki, it’s great to get started and set up, from there you can start to intuitively control things a lot easier

        I did the tutorial multiple times and it is the part where it says equip the weapon that I get stuck. It just doesn’t work as they say it should. I can’t click the menu option to equip.

          I usually play on desktop with the steam deck but how you do it is you have to select the character you want to equip the weapon with and then bring up the context menu (as in right click) on the weapon while your character is selected (you can select them in the top bar if you can’t find them) and then one of the options on the weapon context menu will be equip.

      Understandable. It’s a complex game and some mechanics are not intuitive. I bought it one year ago, but got into it this summer, just because of my deck <3 And now, it’s my most played game on it.

      There is a tab down in the menu where you can assign which type of weapons, armor and cloth they are allowed to wear. If something is not allowed, they won’t touch it. Nevertheless, you can force it by selecting one of the pawns and right clicking the weapon and chose "equip ". If this doesn’t work, it must be a bug.

        That doesn’t work for me and idk why. I select them, and click equip but nothing happens. Tried restarting the worlds and such but still nothing. Maybe I need to reinstall.
