Steam Deck

So I started (and finished...ish) Hollow Knight. I got the first ending and I was planning on going back for the true ending but now I'm a little out of it, I'm actually not sure I want to go back in and experience the game at its most difficult. I had a real good time, but the difficulty spike is supposed to be pretty huge and that's not why I went to that game.

Also been playing Death Must Die which is a Hades-meets-Vampire-Survivor game. It's in early access but it's absolutely hitting the right spot. I'm probably going to jump off for now though, I don't want to exhaust my time with the game before it's out.

Finally, I've just picked up the poker game that everyone is currently playing (I can't remember the name) called Baletro....maybe

And Deep Rock Galactic: Survivors because apparently I like these Auto-shooter things.

Playing a lot of Brotato (just got addicted) and Olli Olli World (I love me a good skateboarding game and bonus points for the styling).

I do want to put more time into You Suck at Parking. It's a fun little puzzle driving game.

Art of Rally is also cool if I just want to relax

Ocarina of Time, for the very first time, via Ship of Harkinian. Just completed the Forest Temple and having a great time! And since it's Linux native it plays exceptionally well.

Finally picked up Dead Cells from the current sale. I play a lot of roguelikes/lites but never been much into Castlevania type stuff so started out skeptical. But a few hours into it I find myself enjoying it more and more. It feels good to get better at it which is a key ingredient for great games.

The game is perfect for the deck, gentle on the battery, works great at the screen resolution, excellent controller support.

Finally bit the bullet and bought Baldur's Gate 3. It runs great (I've limited it to 30 fps) but the battery is draining fast.

I just finished another Cyberpunk game called Sanibi, I highly recommend it, it’s freaking amazing. I don’t know which other cyberpunk game I can play with great stories (already done Katana Zero) so I bought Celeste but I’m almost at the top of the mountain already.

So I continued my play through of BGIII and I had a blast!

Last Epoch - on a gen 1 SD it runs great. Set for 40 fps, medium details, about 2 hours of battery life. Levelling my first character, a Falconer. It's an offline char for now because of the server issues, but it's fine, since I'm not planning multiplayer anytime soon, first I want to enjoy the story and learn all the mechanics without distractions.

The game is really good, and looks beautiful. Maybe the only negative is the default controller layout is not perfect, but nothing critical. With a little fine tuning it works like a charm.

Talos Principle 2! Loved the first one, am having a blast so far diving in.

Also, PictoPix, a fun little Picross game.

Still playing the best steam deck game ever: HALLS OF TORMENT!

It Takes Two with the fiancé - thinking about what other coop games to play

Balatro is my new obsession. Runs great. I'm using the touchpad for mouse input.

Been playing a lot of Deep Rock Galatic! The deck is surprising good at handling FPS games. And the performance is very good.( mostly 60fps @10 watt. Gpu pinned 1100Mhz)

Played a lot less single player game than I expected tho.

Slowly trying to finish A Good Snowman Is Hard To Build (https://store.steampowered.com/app/316610/A_Good_Snowman_Is_Hard_To_Build/), I've always been bad at puzzle games but I still love torturing myself

I'm making progress on DRG Survivor (https://store.steampowered.com/app/2321470/Deep_Rock_Galactic_Survivor/) but I'm scared of finishing it too fast and burning out before it officially releases out of early access

Whenever I have time I really enjoy exploring the world of Sable (https://store.steampowered.com/app/757310/Sable/), it runs really really well, love the art direction

Just beat Twilight Princess HD and got everything. Now restarting it in hero mode. I have no idea how I'm going to fare in the cave of ordeals. I barely made it in regular mode.

I've been playing Ziggurat 2, which I picked up in a Fanatical bundle that I think is still going? It's my second FPS on the Deck, but Super Hot isn't in real time, so this is the first time I'm struggling with aiming accurately at speed. It's hard!

I have gyro controls enabled to help with fine-tuning aiming, but I'm really struggling. I just realized as I'm typing this that I haven't tried touch controls for aiming, though... I'm an idiot. I keep forgetting the touch pads exist. That will probably be a lot better!

I also played Luck be a Landlord. The first run I lost, but in the second run I already beat the game so hard that endless mode has absolutely no challenge since I scale faster than the endless mode difficulty increases. I can't really recommend it for that reason, especially since there's absolutely no challenge once you've figured out a strategy and get your combo pieces.

And more Stardew Valley. I'm in Spring of Year 2 for the first time. I'm thinking of going for Perfection in the file, now, since most of the game is incredibly easy now with sprinklers and the greenhouse. Then I might start over with mods if I'm still not tired of the game.

Still playing LAD: Infinite Wealth as my primary game.

Deep Rock Galactic: Survivor is also getting a lot of playtime though, probably the most fun I've had with a survivors type game.

I picked up Armored Core VI in the recent sale, I've been enjoying it a lot more than I anticipated. Being able to switch up everything in the build after dying then trying again makes the failure fun.

Been playing some genshin impact on my deck lately

Gotta get that Deep Rock Galactic anniversary hat.

Tried to get back to Valheim, but so far it hasn't sunk.

Enjoyed Easy Red 2 surprisingly mutch. You can run it on Steam Deck with max NPC count. Real meat grinding battles. AI has some room for improvement, but it doesn't ruin it.

Still Vampire Survivors 🙈
and sometimes rocket league with the kid

I've been on a rogue-like kick for awhile now. I have to say, Alina of the Arena is a pretty good one. Plays great on deck.

I've finished Firewatch and started Bayonetta.

Finished system shock remastered, started pacific drive, but I think I'll play it on the pc (bigger screen needed for the immersion)

Hades. Was grinding on that sucker for weeks. Finally got to the start of the final battle the last of my life. Got scared haven't picked it up for fear of going down, way down. I'm not very good at this game. I keep hearing people completing a full run within 30 tries. For me, it's like 30,000. I know this run was just a lucky fluke as the runs before it I kept dying on the threshold to the exit if Tartarus.

Mini motorways. Very chill game

Toto, and civ 6!

Been playing En Guarde, great fun little game but kinda short. Going back through the second play through to collect all the achievements.
