I had been playing hollow knight, but then I got yuzu and Zelda: tears of the kingdom. It's been awesome.

I've been using it to play a lot of nostalgic games I haven't gotten around to revisiting yet, recently Burnout 3, classic Minecraft, and PSP homebrew. I hope to continue that trend by filling in some RPGMaker games I really liked, but I've actually been using it more in desktop mode as a companion for my drawing tablet than for gaming lol
Steam Deck is great but I've been stuck on Tears of the Kingdom. Once I finish that, ill probably hop back on Hades or Signalis.
I'm playing through Far Cry 6, and it's running perfectly (Proton GE). I'm genuinely surprised by how good it works, even if that game chews my battery.
Here's one with freshly installed Emustation and the world of Retro Games at my disposal.
Aside from that: Witcher 3, 40k Boltgun, Hitman 3, Door Kickers: Action Squad.
LEGO Builder's Journey has been really fun, its a great game to play at night to wind down even though it's pretty short
Lots of emulated games, mostly. Retrodeck is kinda jank but when you figure it out it's such a convenient way of using most emulators you'll need.
May I ask, why did you go with Retrodeck instead of emudeck. Not judging or anything, just curious about the advantages.
I don't want the games all in my library. Retrodeck is one non-steam game addition in your library and then you launch it and all the emulated games are browsed through the retrodeck UI.
I'm trying to finish Yakuza 0. But christ this game is long. If the rest of the series is this bad I might have to pass on it. Great game but just...too much of everything.
It is a stop and smell the roses type of game. It has some of the best sidequests in gaming. they are quite long though. I hope the other games are as good as 0 and Like a Dragon.
I'm alternating between doom 2016 and divinity original sin. Doom was running really well and I was finally getting decent with aim assist off, but now it's crashing on a rune challenge consistently.
Dark Souls 2 with a very nice lighting mod. It's called DS2LightingEngine SOFTS. I played DS1 and DS3 but could never get into DS2, partly owing to the visuals which I really didn't like. Now it looks cool and I'm getting a few deaths in here and there on the deck.
I just finished Yakuza like a dragon on my deck. Some of the most fun I've had with a game in a long time.
I recommend checking out emudeck if you haven't. I've been using its emulators to replay a lot of old Pokemon games as well as some pokemon rom hacks. You can even run pokemon infinite fusions if you add it to steam from desktop and enable compatibility mode.
Other recommendations: Carrion - You are a mass of flesh and must consume.
Hollow Knight - One of my favorite games and my favorite metroidvania.
Lunacid - First person souls like game that hits a nostalgic spot.
A Hat in Time - Plays like a 3d Mario game.
Pizza Tower - Sonic meets a Wario game. Everything looks like it's drawn in MS Paint.
At the minute I'm playing Botw via cemu , warframe, Mario kart 8 via cemu, deus ex MD and just finished my second play through of portal 2. I still need to finish new super Mario bros 2 on citra
Next I want to get into metal gear solid 5 . I'm also looking forward to when Xenia improves as the 360 had some great games before it red ringed (press F to pay respects)
I love bloodstained, personally. Runs super well and the game is just a perfect fit for the deck.
It’s also amazing for emulation! Just about any traditional-controller game works like a charm. I’m going back and revisiting so many of the old GameCube and gameboy games
Diablo IV, Assassin's Creed Origins, Caves of Qud, No Man's Sky. Also a bit of roguelites like Isaac, Dead Cells, Vampire Survivors, and Brotato.
I'll probably try Zelda TOTK again soonish, because I wasn't able to get it to run correctly (or sometimes even at all. Reading the comments here, it looks like it improved.
My Steam Deck is mostly an indie/retro machine that I play while I'm vegging out in bed/on the couch at the end of the day. Lots of PS1 games and whatnot
- Hifi rush
- hades
- curse of the dead gods
- crash bandicoot 4
