Love my Deck. Haven't been playing as much since I've been playing a lot of TOTK on Switch, but currently I'm finishing up P4G

Another one here! Mostly playing Witcher 3 at the moment. And before that Disco Elysium.
100% agree on the controller support for BG3. I tried playing it on the deck and it was just too cumbersome for me.
Recently, I was able to get Diablo IV to play using Lutris. That has been running incredibly good.
Other than that, lots of EmuDeck! I've started replaying Final Fantasy Tactics: War of the Lions with a patch that fixes up some issues with the base game.
Love the deck so much. You can just do so much with it.
Vampire Survivors, Halls of Torment, Time Wasters, Diablo 4, Cult of the Lamb. I prefer 2D games, the controls are a lot easier - I'm not used to controllers :) I also have to finish Octopath Traveller so I can play the sequel.
Vampire Survivors is such a blast on steam deck!
How does it handle all of the onscreen effects with all the powerups?
It’s sitting behind my laptop. I bring it all the time and hardly play. Mostly think it’s the fact I depend on more sleep now that I have three little ones haha!
I was playing Hogwarts on it last! That and Dredge are good.
I’ve been playing Freeways and Graveyard Keeper on my steam deck, snd I’m glad the controls feels tight.
Not played it on my deck yet, but I heard a LOT about Hades being amazing on Deck... I bought it the other day and played it a stupid amount over the weekend on my desktop in glorious 240FPS. Apparently it runs at a locked 60 on Deck!
Gunfire Reborn, Black Book, and Minecraft. Excited to go finish BL3 and Tiny Tina's on it soon
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.
Octopath travelers 2 and hifi rush.
Last game I played on it, yesterday, was Just Cause 3. It's.. not great. The game just doesn't run consistently enough and is too CPU heavy.
I recently played Red Dead Redemption 2 on it, that was great. Surprisingly so. I'm playing Skyrim now. I've had the game for years but never took the time to properly get into it. I beat the main quest and messed with mods back in the day but that's it.
Now, I'm playing it vanilla and I want to just go deep into the game, completely ignoring the main quest, I don't want to be the hero, if the universe needs saving, it can find someone else. Khajiit have caves to explore and stuff. Oh and the new Survival Mode is neat!
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.
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 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.
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
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.
Divinity Original Sin 2.
Fantastic game, plays great. Only about 35 hours in and I'm blown away. Dialogue choices matter, puzzles and problems can be solved in numerous ways with all sorts of unique interactions. I've barely scratched the surface too
Nothing at the moment on the Steam Deck, still working my way through Tears of the Kingdom on Switch.
Before TOTK I was going back and forth between the recent Sackboy: A Big Adventure port and Pedestrian. Before that I played through the Spider-Man and Miles Morales ports as well.
Not to mention all the various emulation I've setup and been experimenting with, I can't even remember all the games I was testing out there, dozens of them!
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.
I'm playing Doki Doki Literature Club mainly to see why there are all the disclaimers about disturbing content.
Currently playing Jedi: Fallen Order and Stardew Valley. Good to have som casual gaming for casual times and some narrative AAA for when i have a bit more time on my hands :)
