Steam Deck

Path of Exile. It's been great on the Steam Deck and I'm going through the last few days of this league. Once that finishes I'll start putting a lot more time into Street Fighter 6 (with the compact portable hitbox controller I made) and some Eldest Souls on the side.

Diablo and Dave the Diver

Just finished Doom 2016. Runs smooth as silk, and the controls are great. Just starting Hollow Knight now.

I've been playing a lot of No Man's Sky, but just picked up Shadows of Doubt and have been having a blast with that.

Shadows of Doubt has a weird bug ~~where loading into the initial menu takes several minutes instead of a few seconds.~~ Edit: Update came out today that fixed this! Haven't figured out why yet, but the developer is working on a fix and the game runs pretty decently outside of that. Using a community control scheme is recommended because the default controller scheme leaves something to be desired.

I have a Diablo 4 addiction. It runs surprisingly well on my Deck. Only problem is it requires the internet, so I can't play it anywhere outside of the house.

Just started Witcher 3. Had no idea what I was missing.

Dave the diver. Game keeps so surprising me, its so good! 30 hours in and it feels like i just started, works flawless on the deck aswell.

I’ve been playing quite a bit of Morrowind.

Grim Fandango! The Steam Deck is perfect for finally tackling my backlog of older games. Also finished 198X recently which was short but good.

I'm hoping to get a chance to start Elden Ring and Middle Earth Shadow of War this weekend

Finished Dave the Diver, loved it!

Now playing Halls of Torment, have played and finished Vampire Hunters, HOT is a bit different, I miss the swinging music of VH. that said it's fun to figure out and explore HOT.

Played again The Outer Worlds and DLCs a couple weeks back and preferred the deck experience over my first play-through on the XBox. Currently playing High on Life and I'm not really convinced, way to linear and controls are... not really optimal.

All time favorite: No Man's Sky, Stardew Valley, Witcher3

Track mania. It’s a little addictive. Though I’m not good enough to participate in the online events, yet.

Blasphemous right now. Plays excel·lent bar some issues with resolution. Changing resolution can result in the game freezing when doing an attack, and it keeps happening even if you relaunch the game. I found somewhere that shutting off and on the deck solves it, and it's true.

As for gameplay having downed three bosses (+ the tutorial one at the start), it's fun! Maybe too cryptic for my taste, I've had to open a guide a couple of times. But the gameplay it's tight and challenging.

I can't stop playing brotato. I say I'll do one more then another hour passes.

Sacred RPG black edition, finding the community keyboard layout surprisingly easy to use, I'm almost ready to say I wish the keyboard would go to the touchpads in game instead of bringing up the keyboard overlay to enter text.

Inscryption, but I'm not sure how much more I can inflict on myself, starting over continually is just so frustrating, especially when the early game options are so few and I can easily see a loss coming.

One of these days I'll get around up red dead redemption 2 or the Witcher 3, I've got about an hour into both of them.

Mini metro and mini motorways, as well as dwarf romantik, such great ways to lull into slumber.

I recently went full m+kb and have been playing 4x games, age of wonders 3, civ 5 and 6, and Warhammer Total war 2, they all run great on the deck!

Like a Dragon: Ishin!

Being able to pause and resume at any time and from wherever I'm taking my steam deck has been fantastic for the whole Yakuza series. It has kind of become my dedicated Yakuza machine, lol.

Lost judgment will be next!

Kentucky Route Zero, quite a mythical experience I would say.

I lately I’ve been playing elden ring since I got it on sale but before that I mostly used it to emulate a bunch of older titles. Love the consoles versatility

A healthy mix of:

• Borderlands 1. Still getting used to playing fps on a controller. But flickstick+gyro sure helps.
• Brotato
• 20 Minutes Till Dawn

ETA: also, I should put some more time in Tunic.

I've been on a Binding of Isaac binge. I thought that I had my fill with it over the years but the deck has really put a new life into it. It's a perfect fit. And I am finding myself playing it again even on the desktop. I thought that I wasn't gonna need Repentence but I guess I will have to get it now.

Barony! It just had a big update release yesterday, part of which was a UI overhaul that made it much more playable with a controller. Runs flawlessly on the Deck with compatability set to Proton mode; prior to the update I had issues running the default native Linux version (text and textures were garbled) but have not tried on the new patch.

It is a roguelike that feels more like actual Rogue or Nethack than anything I have played in a while and has great co-op support. I was having lots of fun learning the game before the update and am excited to spend more time with it, if the voxel-y graphics are not a turn off I definitely recommend it! Works well for shorter play sessions.

I am somewhat of a patient gamer so I tend to focus on few years old games.

Currently playing Valkyria Chronicles which works pretty well on deck ( I hate how finicky accurate aiming is ). Non-interactive visual novel storytelling and turn based combat puzzles works really well for short periodic gaming moments.

Just finished Salt & Sanctuary and the remastered Grim Fandango. Both great on deck and good games overall

Just finished Lone Fungus and started Haiku the Robot. Both great little 2D metroidvanias.

Thanks to the Baldur’s Gate 3 hype, decided to finally jump into a CRPG and went with Divinity Original Sin 2 DE after trying Pillars of Eternity DE. I tried before, but didn’t have the right mindset.

Loving DOS2 now!

Been playing the guardians of the Galaxy game on it. It's a blast

Dead cells
Got it in the summer sales and the deck is a great way to play it

I just started Bioshock 2 Remastered. It runs surprisingly well.

Evoland II

Tales of Phantasia, Far Cry 4, Control, Divinity 2, Final Fantasy Pixel Remaster.

Final Fantasy Pixel Remaster is like, the 4th version of FF1 I've played and the most polished. Would definitely recommend.

I like the setting of Far Cry 4, but I think I was more engaged by Far Cry 3's story.

Divinity 2 is way different than any other game in the series, being a 3rd person action RPG. It's ok. Nothing to write home about.

Tales of Phantasia I'm playing the PS1 version translated from Japanese. It's the first game in the long running Tails series, and is absolutely wonderful. I'm near the end and just found out that the best version is the PSP copy that comes bundled in Tales of Phantasia X Nakiri Dungeon, the sequel, and has full voice acting(albeit in Japanese). The only version that made it to the states is the far inferior GBA version, which I own a physical copy of, but I am currently WAY further than I ever got on GBA.

Control is absolutely one of the best games I've ever played. Thr rich lore, superb game play, relatively glitch free, full sense of progression, metroidvania-like in its design, plenty of side quests, diversions, and collectibles. 10/10

Just finished Lil Gator Game which was such a charming little game. The writing was great and the achievements were even painless to wrap up after I rolled credits. Super cute and cozy, do recommend.

Otherwise, still chugging along on Octopath Traveler II which is a big improvement over the first game imo. Between a willingness to play with the camera angles, more flexible story structures, and some good QOL, this is definitely a much more enjoyable experience for me than the first.

Stardew Valley and Halls of Torment

Nova Drift is a great asteroids rogue like.

Castlevania IV from the advance collection (and it's frustrating AF) trying to do all of the classic castlevanias but I may hang this one up and move on. I feel like I spend more time fighting the controls than the platforming.

About two hours into Chained Echos after finishing Cosmic Star Heroine. I always have to have a jrpg going.

@Fubarberry I recently started Hyperlight Drifter. Great game so far, but its pretty difficult.

Shadow of Mordor

Just finished Death Stranding. It's mostly great but somehow crashed a fair bit halfway through the game. No issues or whatsoever in early and late to end game.

Mixolumia.

I haven't been playing much lately, and when I do sit down to play I don't feel like putting a ton of effort into anything. Mixolumia is easy to pick up and put down.

Thps3 and pikmin 3.

Although I'm likely to buy baldursg gate 3 in a couple days once I've heard how it holds up

Finally working on The Long Dark.

I've been absolutely slamming Persona 5 Royal. I've ran into a couple odd hard freezes with the game, but I'm about 60 hours in at this point so it clearly hasn't stopped me.

Would absolutely recommend!

Just finished Earthbound, now Mother 3.

Yakuza 0, and God of War as well.

Mother 3 is a bit different from Earthbound, I am not sure i would recommend it to everyone. Yakuza 0 is a great game though.

I just finished Tohu, Kraken academy and Killer Paradise.

Killer Paradise was really cool. All success unlocked.

Kraken Academy was good but the loop is a little boring and the plot easy to guess. Some jokes were funny. All success unlocked too.

Tohu was good despite easy puzzle and very short.

I’m going for Remnant from the ashes, and trying to push a little more into ghostwire tokyo, and i’m tempted by Disco Elysium on the Humble Choice this month.

Also i will try grime, and waiting to be with friends to coop on fury unleashed.

I'm finishing spider-man and will start miles morales after that

Been playing a bit of Close Combat 3: The Russian Front. Picked it up from the summer sale and I've been wanting to try this series for as long as I've known about it (I think I read about CC2 in a gaming mag when it was new). Fun game but not the easiest to get running and nobody seems to be playing the games in this series with Deck of even a controller so I didn't really find any controller mapping for it. WNot a huge issue since the game is fairly easy to control even with just a mouse.

I tend to play lots of strategy games and such that usually rely on the mouse quite a bit, the deck is such a great device for this use case.
