I've been gaming on Linux for umm about ten years? Before that it was on FreeBSD and before that, it was on Atari ST. It feels so weird to finally be playing the same games as everyone else. Thanks Steam Deckers.
If anyone wants to spin up a private server and host some kind of game, I'll join your world! 7dtd is dropping a new release tomorrow.
Gunfire Reborn, Black Book, and Minecraft. Excited to go finish BL3 and Tiny Tina's on it soon
I would like to know who is running SteamOS and how Proton is working for you.
It has become my Dinkum machine. So great to have a system you can just suspend and pick back up again. Aside from that I've been playing Cult of the Lamb on it. The deck seems to be the perfect fit for indie games.
Playing Persona 5 Strikers and constantly feeling withdrawal as I want to get to NEO:The World Ends With You after playing the DS original. Which I feel like is in the spirit of patient gaming, because while the game is like 2 years old, I got into this situation for playing a 15 year old game.
Happy to be here. Vampire survivors for me, lol.
Wanna get into God of War, though
anybody with a deck tried modded minecraft? if i get one and it works i’ll probably end up having another one of those month-long minecraft phases haha
Love mine. Mostly been playing Descenders and rubber duck simulator
I pre-ordered the Deck way back on day 1 with the expectation that it would be a good emulation handheld, non-demanding indies, and Civ VI device, and that any modern gaming it ends up doing besides that would be gravy.
Proton turned out to be far more compatible than I ever imagined.
Still, I mostly do emulation, indies, and low-graphic strategy games, because anything with serious visuals, I don't want to play on handheld. But it is great to be able to continue whatever strategy or RPG savegame I've got going when I travel.
The steam decks power is just slightly lower than my desktop. I am still using an rx 470 4gb, so I think I would be so happy with a steam deck. I am not really playing anything too demanding anyway.
Playing Resident Evil 3 Remake right now. I'm amazed at the graphics and how smoothly it runs for me. First Resident Evil game I've played, and it is so so scary!
So far I'm enjoying it though. The darkness, the lights and fires make it look so pretty and atmospheric
I am! I'm actually playing the Elder Scrolls Online via moonlight streaming.
Currently playing FF7 remake which has been wonderful. Moving on to Metroid Prime 2 next.
Alien Fireteam Elite! Runs very well on the Deck.
I use my deck daily. Anything that is super intensive I actually just stream from my PC upstairs to my deck / or TV downstairs using the deck. For native games I am currently playing Diablo IV, Eastward, and about to start XCOM 2 after finishing the first game entirely on deck earlier this year.
I like to dock the Steam Deck for couch coop. Go to games include Overcooked, Boomerang Fu and Lovers in a Dangerous Space Time.
I’m currently playing Persona 5, it’s a good game. If you haven't already, play MGS:V it’s an incredible experience on the steam deck.
Slay the Spire, American Truck Simulator, Bloons TD6, Deep Rock Galactic were games I had a good experience with.
I had a USBC Dongle and was also able to play games like TMNT Shredders Revenge, Out of Space, Moving Out, Plate Up and Overcooked with other people very easily by bringing it with me and extra controllers.
Vampire Survivors, and Pico-8 games via Emudeck. Once I'm bored of those I plan to spend a bit more time with Snowrunner. I've never really got into it, but it looks like my sort of game.
Here! Playing A Short Hike and loving it.
Very happy to be on the deck after so much switch time - feels like there are tons of steam games i’ve been ‘saving’ for years.
I absolutely love my steam deck. I’m an old WoW player and I currently play on TurtleWoW since classic isn’t really for me & I hate the guilt of paying for a monthly sub when my life is very sporadic with gaming time. It’s PERFECT for before bedtime in bed gaming before wife & I go to sleep.
Right now I'm in a mix of Diablo IV, No Man's Sky and Brotato. They all play very well on the Deck!
Currently playing Traveller’s Rest, it’s a little tavern, stardew-like game. Pretty fun but a little bare on the content at the moment.
I’ve been playing Diablo 4 on it the last couple of days. Before that was Death Stranding.
I don't use my steam deck all that much, just when traveling. The last thing I played on it was Warhammer 40k Mechanicus, and that plays wonderfully on it. Definitely recommended.
I just got off a huge Hades kick. Currently I'm working through Doom 2016 again, and I'm planning Doom Eternal next since I just got the DLC. After that is probably Cyberpunk 2077. I bought it on release and dropped it after a couple weeks, so I'm excited to see how it plays now with a couple years of updates, and also because the expansion is coming.
I’ve been playing Freeways and Graveyard Keeper on my steam deck, and I’m glad the controls feels tight.
Currently playing through Halo Reach. I've never played the series before, and so far I'm really liking it. Even though it is marked as playable, the only slight slowdown was signing into Microsoft, which wasn't too bad even.
