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 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.

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’ve been playing quite a bit of Morrowind.

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

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

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

Link's Awakening on my spare time. I've also spent several hours modding Skyrim, eager to see how that turns out

Stardew valley, mini motorways, Mario kart 8 and subnautica.

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!

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.

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!

I've just this evening started playing Hogwarts Legacy. Spent most of my time tweaking it to get it to run as well as I think it can do.

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.

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

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.

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

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.

Control, after finishing quantum break and Alan wake before.

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

Only just got my Deck. Still in the process of doing upgrades and mods. But while I have been testing my overclock and cooling mods and whatnot, I have put a few hours into Elden Ring and it's awesome on the Deck. The load times are insanely fast compared to my actual high-end gaming laptop. Looking forward to starting a new save on the Deck, after I have everything setup the way I want it. Waiting on a 2tb ssd to replace the 1tb that I just put in the a few days ago. Need to get that swap done before I can finish the cooling mod.

I've also put a couple of hours into the Demon Slayer game while testing. That game runs at a locked 60 fps, and plays amazingly.

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.

Steamworld Heist and Olli Olli World. They fit what I want to play on the Deck: bite sized, good for lounging, a little more simple than what I want to play when I'm sitting at my desktop.

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

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

Evoland II

Shadow of Mordor

Finally working on The Long Dark.

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

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

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!

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

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.

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.

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.

Just finished up Assassin's Creed 2 - my all-time favorite game but first time playing since I had my Xbox 360. I remembered the free-running/parkour being a bit finicky but this time around it was just infuriating. Also had a hard time with some of the controls being bound correctly (navigating the map being the worst offender). I still recommend the game because the campaign, the modern day story, and the historical conspiracies sub-plot are just too good IMO. I just also found a good chunk of my time spent yelling at Ezio to jump where I wanted him to go.

Started up Dinkum for some casual play - just have an hour or so played but seems to be good so far. Not sure how much I'll play of it - I get kind of bored with this style of game. Looking for some pointers with getting started. (Same thing happened with Stardew Valley for me)

Spyro Reignited has been really fun to pickup for quick play sessions. I do get more stutters than I'd expect on the Deck when loading levels. Think my graphics are all set to medium so prob need to tinker to get those smoothed out. Definitely recommend this game though.

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.

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.

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.

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

darkest dungeon, mechanicus, the dishonnered series, witcher, ff7 crisis remaster, smash bros, random pokemon hacks, deus ex hr

Cities Skylines cause I'm hyped for C:S2. Also started and finished Layers of Fear 2, great game!

High on Life, runs ok on medium to high settings locked at 30 FPS, definitely enjoyable

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.

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.

Finished The Last of Us Part 1 today. Now working on my Animal Crossing island 🏝️

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.

Horizon Zero Dawn, Super Hexagon and Hollow Knight. I tend to play Hollow Knight more often because Horizon Zero Dawn really drains the battery.

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.

Skul The Hero Slayer Horizon Turbo Chase

Working my way through the first few Resident Evil games. Currently playing the second remake one.

The Last Epoch, Pacer and Legend Bowl.

Just finished Monster Sanctuary. Moving onto Super Robot Wars 30

Red dead redempion 2, Doom Eternal, Team fortress 2

Diablo 4

Graveyard Keeper

Halls of Torment

AC Odyssey

Rise of the Triad, and always have a Civ VI game in flight

Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice and Super Mario Galaxy 2

Emulating Final Fantasy X. It plays really well, especially with save states and 2x speed.

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.

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

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.

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.

I did limbo, guacemelee, inside. I started a cyberpunk game too, but switched to platform then.

Stardew Valley and Halls of Torment

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.

Red Dead Redemption 2

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!

Just finished up Diablo 4 and now I'm playing Dave the Diver.

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!

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.

None. I got it so my partner could play video games on the couch with me while I'm smackin moblins in Hyrula.
