For me, definitely older and indie (old and new). I don't get a lot of time these days to sit at my PC. Using my steam deck primarily these days is part of the reason I'm playing older games, but seriously I have a problem with steam/gog/name a storefront/ backlogs. I have so many games already, great time to review what I bought because of hype but never played.

Yeah that whole conundrum, if you have the money to buy new games you don't have the time to play them, if you had the time, you wouldn't have the money to buy them.
