Rules:
I snagged Marvel Midnight Suns two days ago and I am HOOKED. I love card builder roguelites and this game added another layer of interactivity with 3D positioning and environmental attacks.
I also adore the Persona style relationship sim going on. A big part of why I love the MCU is the personality and relationships between characters, so having the Persona r/ship sim going on is a perfect addition to the game!
Hades. Like 80 hours of Hades
Fallout 4. Its the first game I thought of when the Deck was announced and hoped it would be playable. I haven't been disappointed after 8 hrs on my Deck.
I bought it a week ago and had buggy dialogue, soft locks, etc. in the house and at the gate to the vault. It was insanely broken. A fresh reinstall did nothing. Ended up refunding and buying Fallout 3, which has been fun so far. No clue why 4 was just busted for me.
Too much farming simulator
Recently played Axiom Verge 1&2 and currently playing Hollow Knight.
Diablo and Dave the Diver!
For me it's been XCOM 2, and now Skyrim. As well as Elden Ring a bit.
I've been playing resident evil revelations 2. It's actually really good on the deck
Roots of Pacha (caveman style Stardew), Disgaea 5 and Octopath 2
Sorry for double post, can’t figure out how to delete
Half life 2 Stardew valley 64 roms
High on Life and Arkham Asylum. Also CS:Go but that's an everlasting game.
I tried csgo but found I was horrible on the deck, always been a mouse and keyboard gamer for me
Been playing Brotato and Traveler's Rest most recently, but really want to get back to Yakuza 0 and Spiritfarer.
I recently just bought Zuma Deluxe from the summer sale because of nostalgia. It's a bit tough to use the trackpad initially but you end up getting used to it. Other than that, I emulated Animal Crossing
Diablo 4! I’m really pleased with how well it runs.
Diablo 4 looks interesting, but $70 and microtransactions just rubs me the wrong way.
I’m really into it so the outlay is worth it for me, already clocked hundreds of hours since launch.
The cosmetics are egregiously expensive, but they’re only cosmetic so they are quite easy for me to completely ignore.
Fwiw, I didn't even know there are micro transactions, and I'm about 3/4 through the story line and having a great time
I finally got back to Tunic after a few months' break. Ended up finding a page and an item I had missed, and then it was smooth sailing to the next (second?) boss, which I found to be a super fun fight.
How does it run on Deck? I tried it briefly on Xbox thanks to Gamepass. The game looks lovely, the first hour or so was fun. It feels like a perfect deck game, but only if the performance is stable.
On a Remedy run. I finished Quantum Break two days ago and now on to Alan Wake. Next comes Control (maybe i need a small genre break in between )
Control was the first game I played on SD and it was phenomenal.
Recently I've been cruising though Sludge Life
Saw a recommendation for brotato on here, bough it before going on holiday and now I'm paying this instead of, I don't know, sightseeing and shit
Just finished Assassins Creed 2 and Brotherhood and I’m playing through Revelations for the first time
Docked: Final Fantasy XII: The Zodiac Age. Perfect for laying in bed, has a near auto-battle combat system between cutscenes that i can enjoy comfortably.
Undocked: Persona 2: Innocent Sin. I'm trying to get all the achievements via RetroAchievements and am at the point where it's just grinding so it works elegantly for those random chances I find to put some playtime in. I played through the story, which was great btw, mostly docked.
