Gaming

Usually Indies, a lot of slay the spire recently, but I've just started Street Fighter VI.

Tempted by System Shock next cos I never played the original.

Steam Deck best tech purchase for me in a long time. Don’t judge me too much but I’ve been playing Disney Speedstorm between TotK sessions.

Disco Elysium. Fantastic writing and pretty hilarious at times.

It's also pretty good as a portable PC when traveling too, so that's nice.

Celeste Strawberry Jam

An absolute masterpiece that runs perfectly on the Deck

Not a steamdeck user but a linux pc gamer so solidarity. Currently playing RE2 and Like a dragon Ishin.

Stardew Valley works nicely with the Steam Deck, though with all the mods it literally takes 10 minutes to load. On the plus side though, the suspend feature basically let's me just keep the game running for days.

I have 400 steam games, a Series X, a PS5, a Switch OLED, a gaming PC, but I spend most of my time playing Brotato on my Steam Deck.

Vampire Survivors for a while. Lately I just finished up a run through of Pokemon Red and just got started on a run of Pokemon Silver.

HiFi rush and Dinkum (coop w/ the fam).

Yeah, baby! Somebody point me in the direction of another Steam Deck subre-... Channel?

I've been playing lots of Street Fighter 6, but also Metroidvania indies. Currently playing through They Always Run and it's pretty much pixel 2d Mandalorian and it's pretty damn cool!

After religiously following the order number tracking efforts on the Steam Deck subreddit (finally got mine May '22) it's been my 'clearing the backlog whilst sitting with the significant other' device...heavily punctuated with Vampire Survivors and, lately, Diablo 4. It's a great little roguelike device -- stuff like Cult of the Lamb, Spelunky 2, and Rogue Legacy 2 -- that I can just play for a few minutes wherever the Heck I'd like.

I still find it like holding black magic. I'm a software engineer, and I understand how it works, but playing a Windows port of a PS4 game (like Horizon) in Linux in my hands is something I don't think I'll ever not be impressed by!

It's mostly all ToTK, all the time here, but on the Deck, it's the System Shock remake. Runs very nicely, but the controller support is so so & I haven't spent the time setting up a config map yet.

Horizon Zero Dawn. Had it on PS4 and didn't get far. Having a Deck changes everything.

I've actually set my Deck up with a wireless keyboard and mouse and a monitor and spend a lot of time using it in desktop mode. The "real" gaming PC is still around, but it's a fallback. So I'm arguably playing Beehaw on it right now, but I just alt-tabbed away from Overload to do this. I'll play Guild Wars 2 on it for a while tomorrow..

Been playing TOTK and FF13

Playing Cyberpunk and Ace Combat.

As a toddler+newborn dad I flat out need the option of playing on TV or in bed, and instantly flipping on or off.

I honestly never dreamed of something like this when I grew up gaming on Windows 95+. Can't wait 'til I can game with my sons.

I've been playing Lone Fungus from the recent metroidvania humble bundle, it's alright? Takes a lot from other games, Hollow Knight in particular, and mostly doesn't live up to its inspirations, but is still fun enough. Very easy to binge and it has a bunch of areas/bosses so it's not really repetitive or slow at all. Like a 6/10 so far, but if you've played nearly everything in the genre like I have it's fun enough

I have been playing a lot of BotW and DRG on it. Playing BotW on it is amazing, for DRG or mainly any shooter on it there is the problem of me not being used to aim with the gyro properly yet.

I'm here, but I've been playing TotK on switch as of late. I was actually playing Metroid Prime: Remastered on the deck before that.

I mostly play older games because I'm a bit of a patient gamer. Here are some I'm playing:

• Yakuza 2 - kinda stalled on it, but it runs fantastically on SD; looking forward to finishing the rest of the series
• Okami HD - not sure if it's a SD issue or the game is weird, but it controls weird; still having fun with it
• Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky - stalled out a bit, but I'll get back to it
• Nier Replicant - fantastic experience, I'm looking forward to Automata

And games I'm looking forward to:

• Mass Effect Legendary - never played the originals, so it'll be a treat, but I'm not looking forward to the massive 100GB download
• Alan Wake, Control, and new Alan Wake - haven't played any, so it'll be a treat
• Mount & Blade Bannerlord - interested in how the controls will map; I haven't played this yet, but I have played the original on PC
• tons of smaller indie games - I've played a ton and I still have a ton in my library

Diablo 4, runs pretty decent.

Been mostly playing ToTK on switch like some here, though I think I'll have to give a few more attempts at P ranking some bosses in Pizza Tower soon, or perhaps try to 100% Hifi Rush

currently we <3 katamari reroll which is such a perfect fit on the platform it almost hurts

Just got Tony Hawk 1+2. Is literally perfect for the Deck!

Yes, I am playing Dredge right now. I am also playing papers please, which is obviously easier with mouse but it works good enough. I am also playing the first Ori game and Tetris sometimes. I played tails of iron too which is great fun.

I have one, but borrowed it to my neighbor to try it out and see if he wants to purchase one. :)

I don't play on it often honestly, but I mainly use it if I'm going to bed and don't want to sleep, flying, visiting in laws, or want to play controller games. It's console lite for me.

I played Brotato on it for way too many hours.

I played through Disco Elysium recently and it does surprisingly well for a small screen.

TOTK! Runs great via some of the latest Yuzu updates.

Also Pizza Tower and a bit of PGA 2K21 here and there.

I've been playing Spiritfarer and Forza Horizon 4 on mine as of late.

I'm still not sure if I want to get the Steam Deck, I play portable games on my Switch and while I miss out on having all my Steam library and stuff, I just can't seem to reasonably justify buying one

HIya! I jump around a lot but today I started playing Warhammer 40K Space Marine again in preparation for the release of the sequel. Before that I'm working through Daemon x Machina to scratch the Armored Core itch I have waiting for AC6.

I've just beaten Control, it's pretty weird, but still a fun game. Worked on the deck without any issues and configuration. Next I'll play Horizon Zero Dawn.

I was looking to scratch the FromSoft itch after Elden Ring finally converted me into a lover of those games.

I bought Sekiro on my deck and got crack cocaine addicted to it. Plays GREAT. Also recently finished Celeste on there which is a game I see myself going back to again and again.

Recently: Skyrim yet again, Portal 2

Currently: Horizon Zero Dawn, Wreckfest, Emulators

Next: Probably Cyberpunk. I started it a few months ago, but have been playing Horizon instead.

I’ve been playing Diablo IV since it came out! Runs surprisingly well.

I've been playing a lot of Diablo IV - runs super smooth at 45FPS with very little tweaking. The controls feel great too, especially if you've ever played Diablo 3 on a controller.

Other than that, I've installed Decky and have been tweaking the system to my liking with the CSS Loader plugin. Highly recommend giving it a look!

My recent obsession has been getting heavily modded Bethesda games running on the deck. Currently playing a version of Oblivion that has only ever been seen by me. I couldn't even get Oblivion running with 10 mods a decade ago but with the newer tools it's running on linux with almost 200. It's been fun.

Diablo 4 runs very well on the SteamDeck and has annihilated my free time

I've been playing Celeste on the Steam Deck. Really good game and its a replay, since previously I had done it on the Switch.

Decker here. Have not touched it in a while since TOTK, but I've been playing emulated titles mostly on it and Civilization VI.

Looking forward to actually continue with Yakuza 0 because of the Like A Dragon hype lately! Also got some Humble Choice games I gotta try, like Windjammers 2. Really need to start getting that backlog down a bit.

Old school RuneScape- don't play this game, it sucks and I have an addiction

Yuzu emulator - playing the Luminescent platinum romhack of BDSP. Having a great time, it's an excellent romhack so far.

Mechabellum - the only good auto chess style game I've played, and it's really good. Doesn't quite run well enough on the deck for my liking so I just stream from my PC in the other room

Diablo 4 for me! Amazing performance, it can even run on Ultra but battery is sucked dry within 45 minutes

Yakuza Like a Dragon is my current game, it's been great. I like a lot of things about the Yakuza games in general, but the combat never really worked for me. The combat in this one is so much better imo,

I want a steam deck so badly. In the mean time I’m paying my switch.

But I really want to play disco elysium. I know it’s available for the switch, but it pays terribly compared to the pc.

Loving my steam deck but sadly don’t get a lot of time to play even on something so portable. I’ve been fooling with Cozy Grove lately, though!
