In a recent episode of Digital Coffee, the host Brett Deister covered a range of topics related to gaming and technology. He began by discussing the new Razor Stream Controller X, which is a competitor to the Stream Deck. While the Razor version lacks some integrations and software features, it costs the same as the Stream Deck Mach Two at $150.

We can use a mod for The Last of Us Part One to enable first-person shooting, and even run Windows Eleven on the Steam Deck. He also discussed the future of Twitch under new leadership, acknowledging the platform's recent layoffs and competition from other platforms. It was suggested that creators should not solely rely on streaming but use other content strategies as well.

Highlights

• Razer's new Stream Deck competitor
• Diablo 4 makes some changes
• Last of Us Part 1 FPS mod
• Last of Us Part 1 review
• My bad experience with Blizzard customer service
