I think it depends on the game. Personally I made lots of notes when playing Elden Ring since it was impossible to keep track of all the obscure open quests otherwise (especially before the NPC map markers update).
There are also plenty of games where you need to return to an area when you reach a certain level or have a certain item/ability. I don’t usually make notes to remind myself to do that but since it’s so accessible now I can see myself doing that.
they got rid of the overlay music player and replaced with a player that plays the soundtracks you bought, definitely the worst thing to have come out of this update
I don't know for sure it's a steam issue, but in the last few days my bluetooth controller (xb elite 2) has been very inconsistent about connecting to steam and any games launched from steam. jstest doesn't see any problem, but often Steam's Test Device Inputs won't get anything from it, or if it does, the game might not. One day it'll work, the next it won't without me having changed anything 🤷. Plugging in over USB gets rid of all issues.
Also, the new big picture mode on nvidia is very low framerate. Sub 10fps. It's not great.
