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 just found out recently that "NBA Jam" (SNES) has a romhack online with updated rosters, so I've been reliving my childhood playing it. Aside from that, I'm a JRPG fan, so I started Terranigma (SNES) for the first time.

I'm having a great time playing The Saboteur on my Deck. It's not on Steam but if you buy it on GOG you can run it through Heroic Game Launcher's Steam integration. You can also run the EA App (yuck) version on Deck but it takes a little more doing, or emulate the PS3 version.

A criminally underrated open world game from 2009 where you play as an ornery Irish man fighting Nazis in occupied Paris. It's well written and acted and nails the aesthetic of the time and place. Plus it's just fun blowing shit up.

Also my friend got me Potion Craft which is cozy.

Raises hand playing God of War 2018. Think I’m going to play Bulletstorm next. Not enough time to play all the games I’d like to.

I'm not so active with mine at the moment since I have a desktop computer, but back when I was recovering from a knee injury away from home, it was not just most of my gaming, but also my personal computer for most tasks, via a USB-C hub hooking it up to the keyboard and monitors I was using for work. I ended up completing a personal image editing project using GIMP installed in its desktop mode.

Mostly playing Fallout 3 atm. Planning on finally finishing Skyrim on the deck as well. I've also played quite a bit of itch.io games on there lately.

Love my Deck! Currently having a lot of fun with Boltgun, having recently played original DOOM and DOOM II with the GzDOOM, and they're still amazing. Also trying to play X4, though it's a little bit crashy, seems to have memory leaks for days. Want to play Dredge soon.

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

Trying to work through my backlog. I've just started A Hat In Time and enjoying it so far.

[–] labhaoise@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 years ago

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.

[–] eXXXtraThicc@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

I've been playing Diablo 4 as well as modded Minecraft with my wife lately. I have tears of the kingdom installed to play next. Diablo and Minecraft run surprisingly well with little/no additional tinkering once the initial set up is done

✋ here. I've been playing mostly Zelda Tears of the Kingdom.

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

[–] unfazedbeaver@lemmy.one 2 points 2 years ago

Happy to be here. Vampire survivors for me, lol.

Wanna get into God of War, though

[–] DelvianSeek@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

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.

[–] Talus_Balls@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

Looking to get a steam deck as my next big purchase. Seems like the perfect gaming device for me

[–] alternativeninja@lemmy.sdf.org 2 points 2 years ago

Octopath travelers 2 and hifi rush.

[–] russmatney@slrpnk.net 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

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.

Alien Fireteam Elite! Runs very well on the Deck.

[–] BuboScandiacus@mander.xyz 2 points 2 years ago

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.

[–] sirfig@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

As I don't own a playstation I am playing the horizon zero dawn game, it is quite good. I will probably then play the final fantasy remake.

[–] Yreska@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I have mine but rarely know what to play on it, as my favorite games aren't comfortable to play on the deck - ie AoE, Endless Legend, Phasmophobia... This thread is going to be quite useful for me.
