I’m indifferent, could go either way. Also, should we do the draft closer to the season in case there are injuries during preseason? And do we have an even number of teams?
Looks like as of right now we have 8 teams which means a lot of talent will be on waivers. I’m ok either way as to if we wait or go ahead with the draft tonight.
 
If anyone goes for FIFA 23 please review. I don't trust the online reviews at all.

I may get it just to have an updated soccer game as an alternative to all the open world and other shit in my pile.

I haven't played FIFA since 21 and barely did anything with that version as it seemed meh compared to 19 and 20.

I’m waiting until it goes on sale in October/November like it always does. Still having a good time with ‘22 and I have a bunch of other stuff in the queue anyway.

I’m the same…21 sucked for me, still prefer my 2018 lol…
 
Anyone else still just playing RDR2 about 8 hours a week every week .. for the past few years?

No?

just me?

If I go back into that world, it will consume me again.

I recently got Spider-Man on the PC and I just can not get into this game.

Anyone have any recommendations for a PC game, something that I can pick up and not have to put too much time to progress?

Pathfinder Wrath of the Righteous is a decent turn based rpg game if that is your jam.

I tried Spider-Man as well on PS5 but couldn’t get into it. I’m actually having a hard time finding something to play right now… I can’t seem to get into anything after Horizon.
 
I got Windows and GamePass up and running on the Steam Deck, but I have to do some work yet to get the controllers working. There are guides out there, I just have to do it.

I’m an idiot and only drafted three defensemen. Thought I had taken someone else but I guess not. Now the waiver claims don’t process until the 13th so I think I’m starting the season off playing down a man :laugh:
Missed the first couple of picks but then finally figured it out. Had roll back the memory clock to make sure and have three goalies and two forwards and a dman on the bench.
 
Shaping up to be an interesting Black Friday. PC demand is down big……should see some great deals.

Cyberpower is already cutting prices….come on baby….I need a new rig!

I like the Steam Dock. Its specs are one gigabit Ethernet RJ-45 network port, an HDMI 2.0 port, a DisplayPort 1.4, and a USB C power delivery port. It also has three full USB 3.1 ports for peripherals.

It has an integrated 7" cable with a USB C cable on a 90-degree connector, to extend around back and then neatly plug into the SteamDeck's power port. Not so short that it stresses the cable, but also not with lots of extraneous cable length. It extends out at exactly the spot where you want to run it straight up and around the back of the Dock, right where the USB C power port is on the SteamDeck. Just long enough to connect and no more.

The dock comes with a USB C power cord, with a very small brick with a two-pronged wall plug.

The dock itself is tiny and very portable, 4.5" long x 2" wide x 1" tall. It is shaped like a stand that has a set of ports crammed into the back somehow. Very slick. It's made of nice material, and it has a little rubber strip in the cradle for the device to rest in, so you don't scratch the Deck. There is also a thin rubber layer on the underside, to avoid having the dock slide if placed on a smooth surface.

Are there other no-name brands out there for half the price? Sure. Most require you to go out and buy your own power delivery cable and wall adapter, often separately, though. You end up with extra costs and lots of annoying excess cables. Most have one or two USB 3 ports, but I've seen none that have three.

Those options are also usually built awkwardly, since they are made for laptops. They tend to be shaped like a dongle with the USB cable at the end. They generally don't have an integrated stand like this one. The Dock is pricier but a cleaner execution in most respects.
