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
Stardew Valley and Halls of Torment
I got the Deck from Summer Sale and since then I've been playing:
- Horizon Zero Dawn
- Been waiting to play this one for years, but haven't had Playstation since PS2 or proper desktop PC in years. SD fulfilled all my expectations, never getting a desktop PC anymore!
- Halls of Torment
- Enjoyed Vampire Survivors on Xbox, enjoying this one
- Hogwarts Legacy
- Seems really "meh", so played only couple of hours.
With the release of Book of Hours just around the corner, I dug out Cultist Simulator again. It runs well enough on the Steam Deck, but it needs mouse input (-> touchpads), and sometimes it flickers (this seems to be related to autosaves).
Overall it works well enough on the Deck so that it's fun to play. The flickering is annoying though.
Just finished up Diablo 4 and now I'm playing Dave the Diver.
High on Life!
I play way too much FFXIV on mine, but been playing Baba is You, FFIX, Muse Dash, Downwell, Powerwash Sim, Slime Rancher 2 as well... I'm stoked that it plays the Lies of P demo pretty well!
I'm currently playing Batman Arkam Knight after buying at a huge discount last week. It works flawlessly on Deck and it looks gorgeous even on the small screen, the game is also great fun; absolutely recommended!
Just started Elden Ring for the first time a few days back. First game I played where I was generally blown away how well it runs and looks for a handheld PC.
Rain World, gotta 100% the game.
I'm currently playing 7 Days to Die. I'm late to the game but with the new Alpha 21 update it runs pretty well on the Deck. I had to rework some of the bindings and set the loader to Vulkan compatibility but I'm getting a consistent 45 to 60 fps in all but the most crowded cities. Haven't gone past my 3rd horde night so I'm not sure how the masses are going to cripple the game. Having a lot of fun though.
I just beat and got 100% achievements in Ender Lilies. Solid metroidvania.
darkest dungeon, mechanicus, the dishonnered series, witcher, ff7 crisis remaster, smash bros, random pokemon hacks, deus ex hr
I did limbo, guacemelee, inside. I started a cyberpunk game too, but switched to platform then.
Emulating Final Fantasy X. It plays really well, especially with save states and 2x speed.
So, I got some games from the sale and slowly started playing them a little...
Slay the Spire seems to be quite liked, but it's not really my thing. Beat the game with three of the four characters I have access to and it still hasn't really "clicked". If somebody could explain to me what makes this game so (supposedly) great, maybe I'd be able to appreciate it a little better?
I also got Redout 2, because I really enjoyed the first part and thought the second should be at least as good. So far I like it, seems like a graphics upgrade and some gameplay enhancements from the first part. However, with ai assist disabled, the difficulty curve seems to be brutally steep. Also, even though I have only played like 8 tutorials and 3 campaign tracks so far, I have already had some issues with clipping through the course after jumps, which might turn into a rather annoying trait if it remains an issue. Still, would recommend. It's a beautiful antigravity racer with terrific "car" mechanics.
Apart from that, I got the gog version of Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri running (although the videos don't work). It's kind of my comfort game which I keep returning to.
It's been mostly Diablo 4 for me, but I'm also playing a ton of Picross via Yuzu. While I own these games on Switch, I really much more prefer the feel of Steam Deck in my hands.
Working my way through the first few Resident Evil games. Currently playing the second remake one.
I got mine recently and have been playing a little bit of a lot of different stuff, but the thing I've put the most hours into has been Midnight Suns. I did not expect a Marvel game to my new favorite turn-based tactics deckbuilder, lol.
The stupid open world collectible part blows chunks, but the actual core gameplay is shockingly fun, if not perfectly tuned the way some deckbuilders are. The extremely weird lightweight high school dating sim / bioware relationship management aspect is very odd but produces some extremely funny interactions at times.
High on Life, runs ok on medium to high settings locked at 30 FPS, definitely enjoyable
I just played Spider-Man Remastered. Had a blast. Thought I might get motion sick swinging around, but it wasn't an issue at all.
Finished The Last of Us Part 1 today. Now working on my Animal Crossing island 🏝️
I’ve been playing a handful of games:
-
Demon’s Tilt: an excellent pinball game that runs great on the Deck. Also, the pixel art is very nice.
-
Hades: a great roguelike, finishing the last few side quests now.
-
Void Scrappers: a fun little survivors-like. Cheap and addictive.
-
Cassette Beasts: similar to Pokémon, if Pokémon had actually innovated in the last few years. Awesome mechanics, and all the battles are doubles matches.
Days Gone. Looks good, runs well, fun game. Almost at 60 hours so far but end is in sight. Got a few in mind after I finish but not quite decided yet.
Red Dead Redemption 2
Currently playing FFXIV and Pumpkin Jack. I'm also testing out Space Engineers. I'm surprised it works.
Skul The Hero Slayer Horizon Turbo Chase
The Last Epoch, Pacer and Legend Bowl.
Just finished Monster Sanctuary. Moving onto Super Robot Wars 30
