I love how you have the cat game dead center for everyone to notice

[–] ResponsibilityOk3272@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

Great now you have space for MW3 AND Baldurs Gate 3.

"One of these things is not like the others."

[–] TheAntiHero412@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

Yah look at Goat Sim with its no icon.

[–] cti0323@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

Right? Why does Goat Simulator not have an Icon?

[–] lalala253@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

You'd think OP has the decency to at least put it in the corner

He thought we wouldn’t notice

Man I wish I had the money to get a 4tb gen 4 m.2 nvme SSD. My main computer is super limited with the 512gb

[–] FlowAffect@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

A 2tb m2 ssd costs like 100 bucks.

[–] junglenation88@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

I mean…. Clearly a 1TB would serve you quite well and they’re really not that expensive.

[–] aapbaba@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

512gb should be enough for Magic Pussy Chapter 1 though, so I don't really see your problem.

[–] crisvirus@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Nice try Asus, still not buying it.

[–] junglenation88@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago (3 children)

Can this thing even play games on the road or is it just meant to be some fancy handheld to be used only on wifi?

[–] Kalanan@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

It can, of course it depends what you are playing, but you can have a few hours on 2d games.

[–] iBliizy@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

Are you asking if it plays games natively or streamed? If you are, it plays natively. Battery life will depend on what you are playing and settings.

[–] Zahz@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

Bought one and installed ChimeraOS on it. Makes it more into a steamdeck than a laptop without a keyboard.

I think getting a steamdeck is a better option, unless you really really want to play some demanding games. Setting up TDP controls and some other features you might want from a console makes having some linux knowledge a enormous help.

Holy shit, there it is, Dino D-Day!

[–] No_Salary_4715@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

A true masterpiece of a game right there

[–] andym554@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

What a mess ;-)

[–] cyanitblau@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

That clusterfuck of a desktop brings me back to 2002.

[–] strategic_thinking@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

i had a feeling there was going to be one hidden in there…

[–] willy_valor@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

Yeah. This is just weird.

[–] daddywheremilk@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago (2 children)

bro, can you tell us more about the Magic pussy chapter 1 ?

[–] rikman81@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

I't a pussy and it's magic, what more do you need to know?

[–] FF_1983@alien.top 0 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Chapter 2 was way better IMO . They get to the part where...

[–] Smittit@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

Magic butthole?

[–] Melbuf@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

ya know you can uncheck the "put icon on desktop" button right?

[–] Malamandre6@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

I want to install all the games in the world and have an endless battery and internet

[–] itsapotatosalad@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

Windows really needs to hurry up with a handheld mode, once it’s a bit more user friendly I’m all over the Ally.

[–] highbme@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

Is that blue tint just the photo?

[–] zerominusfiftyplus@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago (1 children)

I really have to wonder about people who still enable icons on their desktop. It's such an inconvenient and chaotic way to launch things. I guess the iPhone mentality has made it persist to computers because those laughable things don't have a decent program launcher.

[–] camdawg54@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

Android user and desktop background enjoyer here, very confused about your comment

[–] Aok_al@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

You don't really play Siege on this do you?

[–] kinlopunim@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

How do people upgrade and keep the OS? Is yhere an expansion port or a way to install the OS on the new drive?

[–] Hustla58@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

I zoomed directly in the middle. I’m a cat person too.

[–] MyBodyIsAPortaPotty@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

What is this thing?

[–] AbLincoln1863@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

I would still say I have nothing to play

[–] joost00719@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

Except you will only play Runescape and ignore all other games

[–] Highlandcoo@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

Man this is some retro stuff on here. Magic Pussy 1 is a classic. But I prefer their later work.

[–] EthernetCables@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

I could have all these installed and still have nothing to play

[–] DocShady@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

How are you liking the ally? Why did you choose it over the steam deck. Thinking of getting one myself and am genuinely curious

[–] Wild-Ambassador5061@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

What in the fuck is Magic Pussy Chapter 1...
