Right now, I’m playing the early access version of Baldurs Gate 3. I’m getting ready to put it down (frustrated: BG3 has the potential to be good, but without controller support, I’m getting really frustrated with the UI. ) and switch to Yakuza Like a Dragon.

What are you playing now and what are you looking forward to playing next?

I've had my Steam Deck since April of last year. I love it. I love the community that has formed supporting it. The last game I beat on it was Midnight Suns. Since I got my reservation for it in July 2021. I went from about 4 games on Steam. To over 140 games.

It's probably my primary console whenever possible.

Damn, that's a lot of new games!

How did you enjoy midnight suns? My interest kind of fizzled out after 10 or so hours. I got it because I love xcom but it can't quite scratch that itch so far.

I think the Persona/Fire Emblem social aspects are the weakest parts of the game. But I really loved the gameplay and strategy. I think the plot is okay. If you don't mind the comic book style of tacky in it. There is a lot to enjoy. But it's not innovative by any means. I consider it a solid 8.5/10 kind of game though. I think playing on a handheld helped.

I noticed the same behaviour when i got my Vive, you just buy so many games for your new toy

Well, what was nice about it I think is that a lot of games go on sale on Steam a lot. And if they aren't on sale on Steam. There is a decent chance they would be on sale on GMG or Gamebillet or some other seller like Humble with their bundles. So whatever games I re-purchased from console, was never ever full priced.
