Sorry, bit late on this one. Life’s been hectic.
@Fubarberry I’ve been playing Half-Life docked with a steam controller and its been fantastic. The steam controller is so good for fps games.
Dave the Diver. I was playing a pirated copy through October, it was a lot of fun so when it went on sale last week I bought it.
Sea of Stars. 🌊✨
It’s a really well done, turn based style rpg.
Been enjoying it a lot.
It’s a good time for SNES spiritual successors!
I just started Chained Echoes, another snes-style rpg
I’m itching for the co-op update to do a second play through with my gf.
Honestly mostly been learning blender, I am sure sure nobody ever intended blender to be used on a handheld gaming system but that is the beauty of the steam deck right?
Also been playing some everdell.
Coincidentally I had just downloaded Apex to start playing with a friend :(

I’m interested in the “how”
Just install blender from the discover app on the steam desktop, add it to steam as a non-steam game and you can launch it as you would any other game.
As for controls I prefer joysticks + gyro, but that is just me.
I purchased a new monitor and video card right before rockstar pull their stunt with gta v. They arrived the day after I was locked out of gta online. So I feel your pain.
I’ve been playing The Axis Unseen. Framerate can be a bit rough at times, but some patches fixed the worst of it and made it playable.
Hardspace: Shipbreaker. After a rough day of work, there’s something incredibly soothing about dismantling a spaceship over a couple of hours.
Me too! I’m playing it on the easiest mode so I can just not stress and enjoy the hygge of breaking down spaceships
Haven’t been playing much on it since I haven’t felt like playing because college, but the last few times I have, I was busy dragging myself to play Fallout New Vegas to some day finally complete a run for the first time in any fallout game. Otherwise, I don’t think I’ve played any other games.
@Fubarberry War Robots. This shit really got me hooked as of late.
Just finished the visual novel ISLAND, read on the Deck for the most part.
Next in line would be finally continuing with Pocket Mirror. Afterwards, looking forward to buying Dredge.
Visions of Mana. I’m almost at the end and I have been putting off beating it because then I will be sad.
Tried it on the Deck in TV mode, but the frame rates dropped so much during boss fights / class strikes I went back to finishing it on PC. I guess on the small screen I could have dropped the settings further, but on TV that was really hard on the eyes. Which is sad, as I mainly got the deck as a “switch but for pc games”. Guess it’ll mostly only work for pixel art games etc. for me.
I picked up Persona 5 Royale during the sale for 30 bucks.
I was a huge fan of P4G on the PSVita.
P5R is so stylish and it does such a great job of speeding up so much of tedium by allowing fast travel to most places.
Everything feels so snappy, the soundtrack is killer, the gameplay is fun. Runs like a dream on the OLEDeck. I’ve been enjoying taking it slow and getting to know the characters. Just finished the first palace.
Vampire Survivors, Wreckfest, Slay the Princess, Hue.
Windblown plays really well on the SD. Developed by Motion Twin, same folks behind Dead Cells. Rogue-like that plays similar to Hades but has some persistent upgrades like Dead Cells.
I’ve been playing a whole lot of Metaphor ReFantizio, and highly recommend it.
I enjoy the persona games, but I actually do like a fantasy setting more than the modern day setting of persona. I also find some of Persona’s mechanics make the game more tedious than it should be (You have to equip a matching persona before spending your time with someone socially, and you have to get the right conversation responses or spend multiple time slots building social points), and Metaphor gets rid of those points of frustration. The road trip aspect is really fun too, overall I’m having a great time with it.
still cyberpunk. just started the phantom liberty stuff. man is that ever not stealth decker friendly.
Is it the Phantom Liberty part specifically that isn’t deck friendly? I replayed some of base cyberpunk on my OLED recently, and was really impressed by how well it runs now. I seem to remember performance being a lot worse when I tried it back on my original LCD deck.
The new content just has a bunch of parts where you are mobbed so if your playstyle is ninja decker and not the best up close and personal it can be tough. Its definately a bit different with a ton of parkour initially and many hidden item caches. I actually just got through the initial mission and now everything has opened up.
