Just finished replaying FFIX (moguri mod) and FF7 New Threat 2.0. Now I'm playing Cosmoteer and Dave the Diver

Diablo 4. I have actually played from 1-62 as a druid so far on Steam Deck and it's been a fantastic way to experience the game.
Dying light. I bought it on sale years ago and couldn't really get into it. I think the combat just takes a while to get into. Plus, I don't think it's really meant for keyboard and mouse.
I love it on the deck. It runs great and looks amazing for an 8 yr old game.
Non-stop Diablols for me or StS if I can’t guarantee an hour or can’t get online. Diablo IV runs perfectly.
Skyrim (two-handed Orc barbarian/bandit that despises magic, so goes out of his way to not use anything enchanted and kill magic users) and Fallout 3 for the first time to hold off my Starfield hype (on Series X)
Also bought a ton of rogue-likes this weekend from the sale - Hades, Risk of Rain 2, Slay the Spire, and Dead Cells. Never played Hades until now and it's amazing, of course. The rest I've played a bit, but not a ton for each of them, so it's fun getting into them all. I think these style games are some of the best for the Deck.
Friend recommended Halls of Torment because he knew I liked Vampire Survivors. Quite enjoying it so far, I think it improves VS in some ways and gives it a Diablo 1 aesthetic.
Mostly easy going and lighthearted games: Omno, Lil Gator Game, FAR: Lone Sails, Alba: a wildlife adventure, Lego Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga, Art of Rally. Next: Planet of Lana.
Tons of Days Gone. So sick of open world games but this has consumed me
Tears of the Kingdom and Brotato.
I picked up Library of Ruina for the summer sale. My God what have I gotten myself into?
On a Remedy run. I finished Quantum Break two days ago and now on to Alan Wake. Next comes Control (maybe i need a small genre break in between )
Control was the first game I played on SD and it was phenomenal.
I finally got back to Tunic after a few months' break. Ended up finding a page and an item I had missed, and then it was smooth sailing to the next (second?) boss, which I found to be a super fun fight.
How does it run on Deck? I tried it briefly on Xbox thanks to Gamepass. The game looks lovely, the first hour or so was fun. It feels like a perfect deck game, but only if the performance is stable.
I recently just bought Zuma Deluxe from the summer sale because of nostalgia. It's a bit tough to use the trackpad initially but you end up getting used to it. Other than that, I emulated Animal Crossing
Been playing Brotato and Traveler's Rest most recently, but really want to get back to Yakuza 0 and Spiritfarer.
High on Life and Arkham Asylum. Also CS:Go but that's an everlasting game.
Roots of Pacha (caveman style Stardew), Disgaea 5 and Octopath 2
Sorry for double post, can’t figure out how to delete
Tunic
Brotato
Anno Mutationem
I'm loving bringing party games with me, been introducing a lot of folks to Stick Fight, Jackbox, Death Road to Canada, Broforce, and Lovers in a Dangerous Spacetime
Rocket League through heroic games launcher
D4. It runs so smooth on it.
PS2 God of War 1&2 lately. Also some Cult of the Lamb and Don't Starve Together.
Cassette beasts was a surprisingly fantastic pokemon clone. I'd take it over any pokemon game tbh.
Aside from that, my mainstays are:
- Dead Cells
- Hades
- Emulation
Circuit Superstars and Cook, Serve, Delicious!
Circuit Superstars and Cook, Serve, Delicious!
Sun Haven has been a lot of fun, controls can get a little weird though.
I've been playing resident evil revelations 2. It's actually really good on the deck
Played through most of the System Shock remake, currently playing through Deus Ex (the original).
FFVII & Voidigo
Just finished horizon zero dawn, now playing Metroid prime remastered
Summer Sale! Just picked up Castle Crashers, Sable, Grounded and Tunic... Oh, and the freebie demo of En Garde!
I'm on an Ally, but similar stuff.
- Planet of Lana - It's Limbo but less depressing.
- Tinykin - A platformer with a dash of Pikmin. Like, a very small dash. Some reviews way overplay the Pikmin aspect. It's more of a collectathon platformer, and the Tinykin are more or less just abilities you need to collect in every level. There's no strategy and you're not at risk of losing them unnecessarily. There's enough to collect everything in every level. I loved the game, but it's not Pikmin.
- Pokemon Luminescent Platinum - It's a BDSP (specifically BD) mod that makes the games Platinum with some additional QoL stuff like a built in level cap so you don't get overpowered, additional moves and Pokemon, and just a ton of stuff. It's very good.
