Steam Deck

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

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.

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.

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

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

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.

Finally working on The Long Dark.

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

Shadow of Mordor

Stardew Valley and Halls of Torment

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!

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

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.

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.

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

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 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 🏝️
