The BEST Steam Deck Plugins I've Found So Far!

[@MrShotgunWaffles]

I've had my Steam Deck for a few months now and didn't realize how easy using plugins was. Very informative video.

[@midasgamespace]

So easy and useful too!

[@AkuAku695]

You're a top 5 steam deck content provider on this site, keep it up fam

[@MarcoMaslowsky]

yep

[@orlandocalder1645]

Yes, for sure

[@mehere3013]

hes the only creator on this site lol

[@franz014]

Hes the best because DAMN just look at those MASSIVE biceps

[@TheTekSone]

I already had the same plug-ins as you except for 5...so because of you, I downloaded Decky Recorder, Game Theme Music, Pause Games, and Storage Cleaner. I cannot use Controller Tools because I use an XBOX Elite Series 2 controller. Plug-ins I want to recommend are: *AutoFlatpaks* - to manage, notify, and automatically update flatpaks from game mode without having to go to desktop mode to update them. *DeckRoulette* - to navigate to a random game in your library or a Steam Collection for those days when you suffer 'choice paralysis'.

[@ghost-type]

VibrantDeck is my personal favorite. It makes the colors pop so much more.

[@midasgamespace]

Absolutely it does!

[@rajgill7576]

They have a saturation slider native now you don't need vibrant deck anymore

[@jacobdoesgamin]

@@rajgill7576 how do you gain access to that?

[@oladipupodurotimi4754]

It's still in the main beta channel. Valve haven't officially released it. It's even better than vibrantdeck imo.

[@ghost-type]

@@oladipupodurotimi4754 Once that's released, I'll be sure to utilized that. If it's better, then that can only mean good things.

[@DudeRobot]

Storage Cleaner is a MUST HAVE for users with low internal memory decks. Shader cache and compatdata builds up over time and takes a choke hold on the internal drive. Being able to clean it right there in gaming mode is so convenient! Great video!

[@rogert250]

Really good overview man, on the point! Its really the best video I saw for plugins and you also have shortly described ups and downs. I like the way you are creating your videos and your creating your own style for us. Its really perfect. Thanks bro.

[@midasgamespace]

Thank you as well! 😊

[@blbprime11]

Pause game plug in sounds amazing!!!! I love Elden Ring but most of the time when I play on my deck it's because I'm watching my 2 year old son. And he does not care if I'm in the middle of a boss fight 😂

[@hiltsaber]

I have watch countless of videos plugins for the steam deck and by far you have been the most helpful not only with your explanation of what they do but also with the user friendly delivery. Def will share with my friends. Keep up the good work.

[@midasgamespace]

I appreciate that! Thanks for watching :)

[@Excal123]

Just got a steam deck and wow! I didnt know how cool and useful these steam plugins could be. Im loving the new arthero UI looks so clean. And the time to beat plugin is gaming changing thanks!

[@midasgamespace]

They come is very handy!

[@MJosephJr]

Great video! I would suggest the Roulette plug-in. That one is great when you don’t know what game to play, it picks a random game you own for you.

[@patbateman69420]

Didn't think I could get anything else out of videos like this, but I clicked just in case, and it definitely helped. Thank you, sir!

[@bachatas809]

Steam deck it’s getting better and better each day 💪🙏

[@midasgamespace]

Yessir! Love how much we can customize it

[@ExzelisGaming]

My personal favourite themes on CSS Loader are Avatar Customization Suite (choose Round Edge option), Darken Unfocused Games & DellyVolume. They are so simple yet make such a big difference on the Steam Deck. 😆

[@V1perLowK3Y]

100k finally! Congrats my friend, keep it up

[@midasgamespace]

Thank you!! I appreciate the support more than you know 🙏🏾🙌🏾

[@pankajkutum9707]

Love from India❤

[@gustavinus]

Deleting the shader cache will make the games run slower until it repopulates the caches. May also get some stutters here an there. So, it is nice to have the option, but should not be done for games you are still playing frequently.

[@midasgamespace]

Great info! :)

[@gustavinus]

@@midasgamespace Great channel =]

[@BadAssBlackOverlord]

Yo great comment lol. Definitely makes sense too.

[@JDabz96]

Havnt seen your steam deck content before, its top tier! You got a new sub forsure! I had most of these but storage cleaner i had no idea about, thats huge, thank you so much! And im sorry but could you go into more detail on how pause games works, like what the switches do? Other than pause the game when you click it i mean.

[@xxMattyIcexx]

Those UGREEN cables are some of my favorite, I need to order more!

[@blastv110]

I had no idea there was a storage/cache cleaner in decky loader. I've been using cache killer for the last month or two. Thank you for mentioning that.

[@thekidako]

Another great video! You are my go to guy for the steam deck. Keep it up Midas!!

[@midasgamespace]

Much love! 🙌🏾

[@AdamSlovinsky]

installed all of them... this is huge! thanks for the content... subscribed for future videos

[@midasgamespace]

No problem! Happy to have you around. More to come my man!

[@falcon20485]

Can't find deck settings as of this date. Was looking forward to sharing settings, but all other tools super useful

[@MrHitStick757]

this is big time bro, checking all of these out right now. it’s crazy cause i looking for some “jailbreak” type of tweaks for the steam deck. appreciate you fam 💯

[@midasgamespace]

I got you bro! 🤛🏾

[@mattiophillips6738]

Mines on the way, I can’t wait to start downloading these plugins 🎉🎉🎉🎉

[@RVK87]

Great overview of the plugins and delivery of the info. Lot of these plugins I had no idea existed

[@MrFloryn88]

Thank you very much for this video. I can't believe how much some plug-ins can transform my Deck. The vibrant one is a masterpiece as I love Oled screens. You're the best. Please post another video if you find something new.

[@NPCLiam]

This is such a rad list - so many dope QoL plugins.

[@KarimJovian]

Really would have liked to see what you had for art hero turned on to have the game cards big and hero clean like this along with the rounded edges

[@alexanderivarson856]

I made that remote play art youre using 💙 good video broski

[@archie7288]

Bro can't wait for the steam os 3.5 🤒🚀

[@slyfox607]

i would like to recognize the gains man… you look big bro!

[@Chill_Phactor]

Awesome plugin list! I had VibrantDeck, but added most of the other ones you mentioned as I was unaware.

[@K2e0n0n0y]

As a PS5 gamer I'm shocked. All those configurations is insane. Right out of the box I feel like the possibilities are nuts but with the right plug ins it's getting even more ridiculous.

[@mr.bigmangames]

Nice vid thanks! saved. maybe i will get a deck someday and use your vid)

[@Harvey2Tall]

Love that skin on your deck! Just found this channel, doing great man. New sub!

Dang man youre jacked. I gotta get on your level.

[@BigDeal0716]

I came into this video not really interested in plugins, I felt that I didn’t need any and actually hadn’t done any research on what almost any of them do just because I felt they were unnecessary. After watching the video im actually very interested in ProtonDB badges and Deck Settings Thank you, I’ll be checking them both out shortly

[@midasgamespace]

Glad you found a couple you like! ::

@@midasgamespace I installed CSS Loader, I already had a Fallout Pipboy boot video and now I found a Pipboy theme, so full on Pipboy steam deck Thanks!

[@donniedarko4497]

@@midasgamespace I like vibrant Deck, set to 140. To my eyes it makes it as good as an OLED and is absolutely gorgeous. Also power tools has 💯 required settings need to get emulation working correctly such as SMT off and GPU governor at 1000mhz. Without it, Wii U and switch runs at least 25 percent worse.

First time in the channel! By the way I LOVE That custom skin you have on your steam deck!!! is it difficult to install?

Thanks and not at all! One of the fastest installs you can do for the SD. Make sure to use a heat gun/hair dryer to soften up the corners/edges so it looks clean
