Steam Deck

Need for Speed Heat. I forgot how much fun the NFS games could be. Plus it looks gorgeous both docked and undocked.

I'm also working my way through the Yakuza series, about ⅔ through Kiwami 2 at the moment.

Satisfactory runs great on the deck, takes a bit of doing to get the control scheme working well. It's a serious time sink though. Loads to do. Currently moving from my starter factory to my first mega factory.

So far just subnautica. I have never played it before, but it definitely fits the handheld + couch vibe more than the keyboard and mouse one.

The Talos principle 2. I liked the first one but this one is so much better.

It runs great on SD except I would prefer some text to be larger. It is readable it's just a bit uncomfortable for my eyes.

I'm playing some Unicorn Overlord, it took a while to kick in but now I'm totally hooked.

The usual balatro with some skyrim and euro truck simulator on the side.

Right now i'm looking for some management game, because euro truck does not scratch the itch enough.

I've fired up What Remains of Edith Finch and handed it to my teenaged niece. That seems to be going well.

I've been swept up by Palworld. I started my own server up for my partner, myself and some of my friends. My partner and I played most of last night waiting for the ball to drop. I may have gone a little overboard trying to breed the perfect Pals.

Heroes of Hammerwatch, Windblown, and Risk of Rain 2

Been nice since the SO also has a steam deck now.

Started playing Spiritfarer and UFO50 in the last couple weeks and will likely play them into the beginning of 2025.

I’m enjoying Marvel Midnight Suns. It has very fun combat tactics, I probably should turn up the difficulty but I love flinging soldier at each other.

I just wish it turned down the social elements a little bit. The game feels like it was a fan fiction dream of its writers and so you spend time going to a book club with Blade or having your supporting comments rejected by turbo-grump Captain Marvel. It’s also hard to absorb drama behind a premise such as “People can get perma-hypnotized.”

path of exile 2, campaign and maps up to tier 5 ran fine so far :)

also bought the soul reaver remake, but path of exile 2 ran fine so far...

To clear my backlog a bit I recently played Little Kitty, Big City, Smushi Come Home and now Paper Trails. Currently more on the 'cosy train' of games. I think Little Kitty, Big City was the first game I played on the Deck that implements the Steam Input API.

Helldiver's 2, witcher 3, and hades.

My 11 year old brother was told he can’t beat DOOM Eternal on Ultra Nightmare (1 life mode) given only 100 hours of playtime. I told him there’s absolutely no chance he can do that if he’s on Xbox or PS, and to prove it to him I’ve been letting him try on my Steam Deck which is essentially a console controller++

Credit where it’s due, he’s great with the thumbsticks but he’s changed difficulty from Nightmare to Ultra Violence a few too many times to instill any confidence that he could do this lol

Mother 3 fan translation, gives me 7 hours of battery :) always loved Earthbound so it's nice to finally play the "sequel"

I decided to stop playing Mario and Luigi Superstar Saga because the game became too tedious and I wasn’t having as much fun with it. A shame because I loved M&L Dream Team and wanted to start from its roots.

Now currently playing Sea of Stars and Hades.

I recently started Bombrush Cyberfunk and I'm enjoying it. The combat isn't great, and the music doesn't work as well as the original JSR soundtrack, but otherwise it's really good and I recommend it.

Bit late to the party but slay the spire and dredge

holding space for rebirth 😊

Sonic x Shadow Generations. Loving the Shadow portion so far. Feels like Sonic Adventure stages

My wife and I are squandering the power of our gaming devices by just playing Balatro on them 24/7. She’s on the Deck, I’m streaming from my PC to my Retroid.

Helldivers 2, Belatro and bg3

Finishing up Lies of P. Debating what to play next. I picked up a few things during holiday sales and giveaways and might play one of those games. Thinking of doing Pathfinder: Kingmaker. Might do Path of Exile 2 though since someone else here said it's been running fine on their Deck.

I bought the deck so I could play modded games on the go, and its been great for that! Lately I've been playing PlateUp with mods like Fry That, a difficult chicken wing themed menu that will test your ability to manage your kitchen pot stack.

Last games I played were Life is Strange: Double Exposure and after that the phenomenal The Excavation of Hob's Barrow.

Currently I'm playing through Diablo 2 again.

I Am Future: Cozy Apocalypse Survival

Really chill game.

• Skald: Against the Black Priory
• Mud Runners

The Akham trilogy, I'm playing Akham City at the moment with the HD texture pack.

NEVA. SIFU is up next, got it free a couple days ago! Been mostly playing on desktop lately though (FFXVI)

I've been playing CP2077 again with the new patch. I also got God of War: Ragnarök for Christmas, so I've been playing that as well.

Second play through of crosscode. This time, with the inflated damage glitch applied (option from new game plus)

Curse of the Golden Idol + DLCs

haven't really started anything new and I may have mentioned this before but its been years and sorta a big deal for me but I finally did an ending in both cyberpunk and elden ring. I actually completed the dlcs before the normal endings.

Inscyption, dredge, ufo50, hades

Isles of Sea and Sky, Logiart Grimoire and Persona 3 Reload.

All feel like they've been made for deck. Great games, too.
