@@nismo4x4n Agreed, include a short cable that can be replaced if it gets damaged. Otherwise this is almost exactly what I've been looking for from a dock. Already have the JSAUX protective gear for the Steam Deck and I'd give it a 4.5/5 overall. Fit is good, just a little loose around the charging port and led which makes it hard to see the charging state and plug in the USB-C cable. Deck still fits in the original SD clam shell case with the rubber grip/protector/kickstand combo.

Crazy to think that the PS4 already emulator runs faster than the PS3 one (even though the cell processor is understandably HELL to emulate). Makes you wonder if it'll be better to play PS4 ports of PS3 games on ShadPS4 rather than on RPCS3.
@@JonIler That's not particularly the reason. All three consoles of that generation used the PowerPC platform. The cell processor has really proven to be a pain to properly emulate and map to this now standard architecture. Notice that the games giving the biggest problems are the ones that really utilized the cell processors most unique features.
@JonIler Sounds great can't wait for more powerful android handheld to come out next year. I want to play PS4, Wii U through *Cemu* emulator on a handheld console rather than taking Wii U everywhere with me which is big bulky and has huge screen with the bulky console. Can't wait for future of handheld on android I can't wait for Steam Deck 2 my OLED is my go to device for me now!
It's not that crazy really, the hardware in the PS4 isn't that different from PC hardware, it's mostly PC hardware at different spec levels and with its own api calls. In theory, that should be much easier on the hardware to emulate compared to say the PS3 which the architecture is very different. If this is the case for the PS4, it should also be the case for the PS5 and the last two gens of Xbox consoles, being as they are more or less PC's at different spec levels and api calls, in fact, the Xbox might be easier because of DirectX.
Bloodborne on PC, the forbidden fruit. I personally love the new deck review feature. Big kudos to Valve for implementing that, now we just need a section to more easily share graphic configs! And man Concord has to be the biggest failure in a hot minute, I doubt they are going to last the year at this point. Might just be better to cut their losses and try again with something else.
What would have happened if Epic positioned itself as a consumer friendly company and tried to attract customers with great features and innovation, instead of dismissing them as stupid trend chasers and trying to make them buy games on EGS with paid-for exclusives that otherwise would have remained available to everyone. We will never know.
We absolutely will never know, because Epic’s entire business model seems to be “spurn the customer, focus on the supplier” which is completely backwards for a STOREFRONT.
@@illegalalien6542 I get it, they made billions off of Forntnite players, but that's a very specific demographic.

Dude I am right there with ya. It feels like such an honor to see the real time progression of both Bloodborne and PS4 emulation as a whole. Mix that with the ability to enjoy it on a Steam Deck, and the future is looking bright. Can’t wait to see more! Great video man!
The hate for Concord has absolutely nothing to do with why it’s failing, nonsensical, or not. Many games have had a circle of people to hate them and still went on to be highly successful. One of a few other reasons is the fact that it’s a copy and paste $40 game of other games that are free to play. To pull that off, you need to motivate buyers by showing what you’re bringing to the table that’s new.
I'm a big fan of single-player games.. I don't have any friends that game and don't want to play with people I don't know. I used to love Destiny, but it's gotten so advanced and having a fireteam is mandatory to progress, so I gave up on it.
Bloodborne and Gravity Rush 1+2: The duo of games that are stuck in PS Purgatory Once both of these are on PC and the Deck thanks to fan efforts, we’ll finally feast.
Steam Deck aside, the PC itself continues to be the best gaming platform. This makes me want to see Valve release a heavily subsidised home console (with specs around the PS5 level), running on Steam OS of course, which can also be used for wireless PCVR. This would lower the barrier to affordable PC and PCVR gaming.
@slothzilla33-p1xYes, we all remember Steam Machines, but Valve didn't actually release a subsidised 1st party Steam Machine of their own. Steam OS also did exist back then, but Proton didn't, so it relied on having actual native Linux ports, of which there were few at the time. The Steam Deck is subsidised, where basically they sell the device at loss or at a minimal profit, and make it up thanks to Steam software purchases. They would ideally do a similar strategy with a home console. In regards to upgradability, I completely agree. I would like it at least have eGPU support, so they could sell a base console with PS5'ish specs and then you could add a crazy rtx 4090 eGPU to it, which may probably be a bit overkill and bottlenecked, it depends. It would certainly boost the eGPU market though, that's for sure!
Sony refuses to unlock bloodbornes framerate on the ps5 even tho it's been proven to be just 1 line of code, so I'm excited about possibly playing it in 60 fps with this emulator 🙌

also the reason why people don't call it a souls like is because it isn't trying to be a souls like and it's an RPG. People are forgetting there's a huge difference between an RPG and Souls like. The levels, narration, world design and ddifficulty doesn't make it one.
Sadly I can't play Wukong on my deck. Somehow I always get "Assertion failed" Wine error when the games goes to load the shaders on first launch. Verified all files, changed the proton version and all, still nothing :(
When it launches, make sure to choose "Compatibility Mode". If you didn't pick that you can change it in the game properties. That should get it to load, and it runs fine on low settings. You may also wanna make sure it's installed locally, I didn't install Wukong on my microsd in fear of issues like this
Don't bother at the moment. It runs like ass on the deck. You can get it to 30-45 fps but the graphics will be very very bad. Recommend waiting until optimization patches
You love to see it. Sony took so long with this remake/remaster that they lost their demand. They must have felt so smug keeping a decade-old game exclusive to their consoles. This is what happens when the consumer has no reasonable way to purchase your product. Someone else does your job instead, and you lose the money that you could have made if you had just made your product easily available in the first place.
I disagree with the protondb take. It's still way more convenient to see at a glance compatibility for things already in your library. Great video though! Thanks for the updates
13:10 Meanwhile Epic's store and launcher hasn't CHANGED in the last 5+ years. As both a consumer and developer using UnrealEngine, the store and launcher has long been Epic's biggest weak point.
That's not really true, the cell processor is really powerful but it's not very comparable to modern desktop components. As it's basically useless for anything other than parallel computing, which is useful for super computing, well was useful. But there is a reason the PS3 isn't being used for super computers anymore. The hardware is from 2006 and has serious limitations. A majority of the limitations was the huge and obtuse level of work required to get it to do anything at all. Let alone good performance, getting it to just run something was quite an achievement for a programmer. However that theoretical performance benefit was lost years ago due to age, newer hardware that we have now is simply better, more power efficient, scalable, backwards compatible and doesn't require a fundamentally new level of programming skill just to get it to work.
@@emerson-biggons7078 Yep, it's a decent cpu for the time but was hard to work with and was so different then other cpu's which makes it more complicated to emulate and more demanding. On paper, the last two gens of consoles should be much easier to emulate being as they are more or less PC's at different spec levels and their own api calls, but until we actually see emulators and see how demanding they are, which might be a lot less demanding than how emulators normally are, but so far, we've not see it yet, well at least not until now, which I honestly thought would happen sooner being as the last two gens of consoles are more or less PC's, packaged as a console.
Emulating and correcting Gran Turismo 7 to have unlimited automatic real time replay saves, additional telemetry data inclusion and proper spectating will be fantastic
Two problems with the Steam Deck review badge being based on play time. 1) You won't see reviews from people who enjoyed the game on desktop but didn't on the Deck. Filtering reviews will show biased results, as those who disliked the experience on Deck probably won't have much play time on Deck. 2) Steam only tracks play time when you're online. Reviewers who mostly play the Steam Deck on-the-go probably won't be badged as "played on Deck" even if that was their primary device. I commute on the subway; Steam's total playtime for me in BG3 is less than half of what my save file in-game says my playtime has been. Because most of it was on the Deck, without wi-fi.
Wild to say Vale is chasing a trend for making another game in a genre they invented lmao. When Overwatch first came out my first impression was “oh it’s kinda like TF2”
Wukong isn’t even a souls-lite let alone a soulslike. It’s straight up just an action rpg with levels and skill points. Your stats go up when you level up regardless of what you decide to put your skill points into. Basic rpg stuff. And will is just the currency you use to get upgrades and equipment.
finally i will play bloodborne. the game was so slow on my old Ps4 back then, in some parts when i turned corners the areas were not loading in for like 30 sec and so on. on Pc this would be no issue
Crazy to think that we're already making plenty of progress with PS4 emulation, and I knew that Bloodborne would be the white whale for any PS4 emu devs. If 2 months was able to bring us from janky color-broken title screen to playable-enough (yet glitchy) Cleric Beast fight, a year's time and more will definitely yield some amazing results. I think the PS4 game I'd particularly want to play the most besides Bloodborne would be The Last Guardian, so here's hoping that's also on the to-do list!
Honestly I think Concord would have done well with a FtP mode. At this time there are a bunch of hero shooters that have lived and died in its development time and to price it at $40 is... Not very smart.
I always wondered if we would see with the last two gens of consoles more or less being PC hardware that emulating them could be very different than emulating other platforms in the sense that the overheads could be far less because as you say, it's translating the different calls from each other, it might even be possible to outright compile the games to PC x86, reducing overheads further. On paper, these emulators could be some of the lightest around in terms how much stronger hardware is needed to emulate, but we'll have to wait and see how that pans out in real gaming on these emulators. If this does work out like many hope, the same principle would like work for the PS5 and all the as well as the Xbox consoles over the last two gens being as the hardware is far closer to what you are emulating so there are likely a lot of tricks and optimisations that can be done to reduce overheads far more than could possibly be done with other emulators that the hardware is so different. We'll have to wait and see how it all pans out and the irony is, the same could work the other way around for PC games running on consoles, or at least future consoles that have the grunt to handle them.
also worth mentioning that a lot of the advancements done after george got the game to display in game graphics were done by community members writing hacks that disable the glitched motion blur and chromatic abberation, among some other fixes. ive seen people use reshade to mimick bloodbornes lighting as best as they can in the state its in right now and it looks so good. hell, ive even seen people play the game at 200fps. i cant wait for george to figure out the lighting and crashes. once thats done i imagine the community can do a lot with the game. i mean apart from the crashes, bloodborne is already practically playable. not saying its a great experience at this point but if you really wanted to, you could probably play through the game.
I've been able to play Wukong with little to no problems, I'm actually impressed with it. I've heard of a dlss mod I wanna try since the performance gets better with that.
Bloodborne doesn't have problems with code like people think it is just a stupid rumour you literally can put the code in AI fixer, and it gives you everything back . The problem was there are no studio free to work on Bd Fromsoftware refused because ER and their ongoing next project , Bluepoint busy working on new game and they will work on Bloodborne soon.
I do believe that PS4 emulation Is going to be more stable and optimal than PS3 emulation, considering how the architetture of the PS4 Is so similiar to a PC in opposition to the PS3 which was so particular for its time.
It already _is_ possible. The Steam Deck is nothing more than a tiny PC with limited performance, so if it works on a regular PC, it will on the Steam Deck.
I hope Epic Games can carve their own path as well. I don’t buy their timed exclusives so I’d like for them to do something worthwhile to stand apart from Steam and be worth also having installed.
At this point I think Sony is allergic to Ws Won't port Bloodborne Tried to kill Helldiver's Not only made, but released Concord They just can't stop taking Ls
Was it not running on another emulator with minor improvements over the last few months? Maybe it was always shad? Bloodborne looks scary yet amazing. Slowly has carpet into my list
The PS4 like the 5 has an AMD CPU so in Theory getting Emulating working should take shorter time than the RPCS3 took which had a Cell Processor instead of a CPU.
@@FanTheDeck you're welcome. the song in the beginning is pretty cool, but the song starting 5:30 that goes on until around 11 minutes in is just confusing and uncomfortable to listen to. i think there's one song after that starting after 11 minutes and that one's just kinda meh and a non-event
I wish I could code, and was tech savvy so I can get a steam deck and put emulators on it. 😭 I would literally pay somebody money if I had someone near me to set it up with some emulators on it.

@FanTheDeck Again demonstrating that you're an absolute Chad in the Steam Deck community. 😊 I swear I've been following you since before the SD's release, but did you have a different channel name? Also, this is kinda of random, but since jsaux is your sponsor...is there anyway you could get a suggestion for a product to them? 😅 I've been looking around at USB switches so that I can use the same mouse/keyboard between my docked SD and my main PC, but I just keep thinking that if my jsaux dock was *also* a USB switch with the 1-button dongle (similar to the UGREEN USB switches), it would be absolutely perfect. And if there was a model with the slot for an SSD (and if the stand portion was made to accommodate my jsaux Modcase), I'd be in heaven. As Valve continues to work on SteamOS I'm leaning more towards using Linux as a daily driver. The ability to easily switch back and forth between the SD and my Windows PC using a dock/switch combo would be an instant buy for me. Anyhoo, just thought I'd throw it out there. Thanks!
I'll pass it along! I happen to use a KVM switch with my dock and yeah it's kinda painful to have so many cables to and fro lol (and thank you for the kind words!! Once upon a time, I was "whats on deck")

On paper, the last two gens of consoles should be much easier to emulate being as they are more or less PC's at different spec levels and their own api calls, but until we actually see emulators and see how demanding they are, which might be a lot less demanding than how emulators normally are, but so far, we've not see it yet, well at least not until now, which I honestly thought would happen sooner being as the last two gens of consoles are more or less PC's, packaged as a console.
No it's not lmao
@@emerson-biggons7078 Pretty sure he was joking. I doubt anybody thinks the PS3 is stronger than modern CPUs.
Emulating and correcting Gran Turismo 7 to have unlimited automatic real time replay saves, additional telemetry data inclusion and proper spectating will be fantastic
when they release steam os for all hardware its finished with windows. it will take a while but i will finally make the switch
Two problems with the Steam Deck review badge being based on play time.
1) You won't see reviews from people who enjoyed the game on desktop but didn't on the Deck. Filtering reviews will show biased results, as those who disliked the experience on Deck probably won't have much play time on Deck.
2) Steam only tracks play time when you're online. Reviewers who mostly play the Steam Deck on-the-go probably won't be badged as "played on Deck" even if that was their primary device. I commute on the subway; Steam's total playtime for me in BG3 is less than half of what my save file in-game says my playtime has been. Because most of it was on the Deck, without wi-fi.
9:48 I probably wouldn't call it nonsensical but sure, let's go with that
I might finally be able to play bloodborne. omg I've never played it before
Wild to say Vale is chasing a trend for making another game in a genre they invented lmao. When Overwatch first came out my first impression was “oh it’s kinda like TF2”
I didn't say Valve was chasing a trend here fwiw. I said that of Concord.
he was talking about concord buddy
The new review feature is sick. Most of my reviews should have the icon.
Wukong isn’t even a souls-lite let alone a soulslike. It’s straight up just an action rpg with levels and skill points. Your stats go up when you level up regardless of what you decide to put your skill points into. Basic rpg stuff. And will is just the currency you use to get upgrades and equipment.
finally i will play bloodborne. the game was so slow on my old Ps4 back then, in some parts when i turned corners the areas were not loading in for like 30 sec and so on. on Pc this would be no issue
Crazy to think that we're already making plenty of progress with PS4 emulation, and I knew that Bloodborne would be the white whale for any PS4 emu devs. If 2 months was able to bring us from janky color-broken title screen to playable-enough (yet glitchy) Cleric Beast fight, a year's time and more will definitely yield some amazing results.
I think the PS4 game I'd particularly want to play the most besides Bloodborne would be The Last Guardian, so here's hoping that's also on the to-do list!
Jesus, that makes me consider getting a healthy used steamdeck to tide me over until mhwilds.
Cant wait to play drive club on my pc
August 18th... Pretty crazy for me since that's the exact day I turned 30.
Shift up bringing Stellar Blade to PC is awesome news! There's still potential to ruin it by Sony with their sign in requirement!
can't believe that with this speed we might get a fully functional bloodborne on pc at the end of 2024/mid 2025
How sweet it would be to play newer NHL games on the steam deck. I would even be happy with NHL Legacy on an Xbox 360 emulator
Would be nice if they had a Penguin icon too for people who played on Linux. Both would indicate better deck compatibility.
Keep it up 👍
Honestly I think Concord would have done well with a FtP mode. At this time there are a bunch of hero shooters that have lived and died in its development time and to price it at $40 is... Not very smart.
Installed Deadlock but have not had time to play it yet. Already purchased Squirrel with a gun, can't wait to play it
back tehn 2000 every one was like how when i showed ps1 psx running on my pc lol
I always wondered if we would see with the last two gens of consoles more or less being PC hardware that emulating them could be very different than emulating other platforms in the sense that the overheads could be far less because as you say, it's translating the different calls from each other, it might even be possible to outright compile the games to PC x86, reducing overheads further.
On paper, these emulators could be some of the lightest around in terms how much stronger hardware is needed to emulate, but we'll have to wait and see how that pans out in real gaming on these emulators.
If this does work out like many hope, the same principle would like work for the PS5 and all the as well as the Xbox consoles over the last two gens being as the hardware is far closer to what you are emulating so there are likely a lot of tricks and optimisations that can be done to reduce overheads far more than could possibly be done with other emulators that the hardware is so different.
We'll have to wait and see how it all pans out and the irony is, the same could work the other way around for PC games running on consoles, or at least future consoles that have the grunt to handle them.
Amazing
20:41 this guy is asking to get sued/dmca'd, but i apreciate the creativity lol
So for those who don't know blood born runs flawlessly on the steam deck with the PlayStation plus app.
also worth mentioning that a lot of the advancements done after george got the game to display in game graphics were done by community members writing hacks that disable the glitched motion blur and chromatic abberation, among some other fixes. ive seen people use reshade to mimick bloodbornes lighting as best as they can in the state its in right now and it looks so good. hell, ive even seen people play the game at 200fps. i cant wait for george to figure out the lighting and crashes. once thats done i imagine the community can do a lot with the game. i mean apart from the crashes, bloodborne is already practically playable. not saying its a great experience at this point but if you really wanted to, you could probably play through the game.
I've been able to play Wukong with little to no problems, I'm actually impressed with it. I've heard of a dlss mod I wanna try since the performance gets better with that.
9:51 im playing on a 10 year old cpu and an rx 6650 xt and i havent had any performance issue once
love ChadPS4.
There is no way in hell the steam deck is gonna run this at a playable level. But for pcs with good enough specs this is still very huge news.
Bloodborne doesn't have problems with code like people think it is just a stupid rumour you literally can put the code in AI fixer, and it gives you everything back .
The problem was there are no studio free to work on Bd Fromsoftware refused because ER and their ongoing next project , Bluepoint busy working on new game and they will work on Bloodborne soon.
I do believe that PS4 emulation Is going to be more stable and optimal than PS3 emulation, considering how the architetture of the PS4 Is so similiar to a PC in opposition to the PS3 which was so particular for its time.
Bloodborne on the Deck? I’ll believe it when I see it.
It already _is_ possible. The Steam Deck is nothing more than a tiny PC with limited performance, so if it works on a regular PC, it will on the Steam Deck.
It will never happen
I hope Epic Games can carve their own path as well. I don’t buy their timed exclusives so I’d like for them to do something worthwhile to stand apart from Steam and be worth also having installed.
19:30 I see numb hands all time! Big no, holding hands above heart will give you "ants" and numb hands in a minute :/
ProtonDB is still very useful for the people for whom it was originally intended: Linux users.
Totally agree
At this point I think Sony is allergic to Ws
Won't port Bloodborne
Tried to kill Helldiver's
Not only made, but released Concord
They just can't stop taking Ls
The Gaming Pillow is a missed mark. I challenge you to do better than a nursing pillow to support your arms
Was it not running on another emulator with minor improvements over the last few months? Maybe it was always shad? Bloodborne looks scary yet amazing. Slowly has carpet into my list
Let's goooooo!
I can’t wait for Gravity Rush 2 😭😭😭
I can't wait to play bloodborne on my steam deck!
im definitally getting Stellar Blade on PC day one
HELLLLL YEAHS
The PS4 like the 5 has an AMD CPU so in Theory getting Emulating working should take shorter time than the RPCS3 took which had a Cell Processor instead of a CPU.
Red action buttons look cool !
bud you need to change the background music it's just kinda weird and confusing
i know nobody complained but like. i bet no one's praising it either
That's good feedback. I'll work on it. Are there parts that are better than others?
@@FanTheDeck you're welcome. the song in the beginning is pretty cool, but the song starting 5:30 that goes on until around 11 minutes in is just confusing and uncomfortable to listen to. i think there's one song after that starting after 11 minutes and that one's just kinda meh and a non-event
@@cheater00 Ok got it. Thanks so much for going through that. I'll adjust in the future.
@@FanTheDeck hey bud yw i hope people have the most fun watching your vids
I only saw this with og PSX emulation in 98 -2000 lol
It's amazing that PS4 is easier to emulate than PS3
Randy tsk tsk. Valve is doing something right bud. Epic needs to join the deck or get left out 😂
Wukong is basically god of war. It's not really souls like
Out of all the good stuff in here, the craziest thing is that person only played two and a half hours to review a game. What the hell?
I wish I could code, and was tech savvy so I can get a steam deck and put emulators on it. 😭 I would literally pay somebody money if I had someone near me to set it up with some emulators on it. I don't even own a PC so I can follow RUclips videos showing me how to do it. I'm stuck on freaking consoles where you have to pay top dollar for everything. I'm so sick of it.
Balatro + Witcher + Dave +++ you must be going crazy now 😅
LOL you saw that!????? I can't wait to play. Damn day job is keeping me from my boo.
@@FanTheDeck tell me about it. This thing called work, wife, kids… I just want to be a little boy again and play all night! Shhhh don’t tell my wife 🤣
@FanTheDeck Again demonstrating that you're an absolute Chad in the Steam Deck community. 😊 I swear I've been following you since before the SD's release, but did you have a different channel name?
Also, this is kinda of random, but since jsaux is your sponsor...is there anyway you could get a suggestion for a product to them? 😅
I've been looking around at USB switches so that I can use the same mouse/keyboard between my docked SD and my main PC, but I just keep thinking that if my jsaux dock was *also* a USB switch with the 1-button dongle (similar to the UGREEN USB switches), it would be absolutely perfect. And if there was a model with the slot for an SSD (and if the stand portion was made to accommodate my jsaux Modcase), I'd be in heaven.
As Valve continues to work on SteamOS I'm leaning more towards using Linux as a daily driver. The ability to easily switch back and forth between the SD and my Windows PC using a dock/switch combo would be an instant buy for me.
Anyhoo, just thought I'd throw it out there. Thanks!
I'll pass it along! I happen to use a KVM switch with my dock and yeah it's kinda painful to have so many cables to and fro lol
(and thank you for the kind words!! Once upon a time, I was "whats on deck")
Blood borne 2 confirmed
Maybe they need to figure out how much porting it to pc would have cost give him half and publish it on steam and get money send residuals to moder.
Kinda sad to find out that deadlock matchmaking is unavailable for the steam deck
I disagree that fans in general are excited for borderlands 4
More like Chad PS4
Damn! Am I the only one , if I get a free game in Epic games store I like, I ended up up buying it on Steam?
And the cultists rejoice lol. Y'all crack me up
13:11 LOL
EY YO LETS GO!!!
