Mainly Balatro and Factorio at the moment, after finishing Forza Horizon 5 (whatever finishing in that game means lol).
How does factorio work? Do you play with a magnifying glass?
Haha, well it is tiny, but you can zoom in with R2 + Dpad down if you want that for viewing details. Tbh, it works quite well for me, all the handy controller shortcuts and the initial binding configuration are pretty neat, too!
Dangerous Waters.
Very old style, bit clumsy on the controls, but incredibly tense with the gritty sonar stuff.
Been only playing the P-3C airplane so far, but there's also tons of submarines, a helicopter and a frigate.
It is so satisfying to find and torpedo a submarines after staring at sonar graphs and dropping buoys for a while. Love it! I'll be sharing an updated aircraft-oriented controls config when I'm happy with it, based on the one community config that was there, which was more sub-oriented.
Witcher 3, Just finished the main story. And boy, CDPR really nailed the story/ character writing in this game. Looking to grab "Hearts of stone" & "Blood and Wind" DLC next GOG sale.
What an amazing 50hr time sink!
Persona5Strikers. Got it last month with humblebundle's choice, and it's pretty good. My first ever persona game..
Did you have to use GE-proton to get it to run? I think that used to be a requirement, but I'm curious if it runs without it now.
I dont think so? Just downloaded and pressed play. Maybe it did use glorious eggroll's version but idk. will check.
Tape to Tape. It's a roguelite hockey game that has a big sense of humor.
Mostly CrossCode. A fun little sci-fi action puzzler that pays homage to the SNES era of games. It's similar to Spirit of Mana. Low power requirements, and it has a Linux-native version that works better than the Windows version (you need updated engine files if you play from itch.io).
I'm also playing a little bit of No Man's Sky, but just here and there; I'm mostly playing that on my desktop.
Do you play No Mans Sky alone or with friends? I picked it up for my deck but havent tried it out yet... Unfortunately one of the reasons why I have a deck is my PC can't handle some games
Alone. I don't currently have friends that play it, but I still have a good time. Works great on Deck, and you can even make use of HDR settings, if you have an OLED version.
I bought Vampire Survivors since it was slightly discounted and have only heard rave reviews about it.... I sank 7 hours in my first day lol!!
Picked up all the DLCs too. Imo worth the money to support the developer
I've played 60 hrs of Vampire Survivors in the last year since I got my SD OLED. Had the game platinumed before the latest DLC release. Just a ton of fun
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.
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.
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 :(
Honestly mostly been learning blender, I am sure sure nobody ever intended blender to be used on a handheld gaming system
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.
Frontier Pilot Simulator even though it doesn't work offline for some reason.
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.
Ready or Not. Awesome on steam deck
Really? How's the performance?
Very good, I'm getting 50+ fps on medium settings
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.
I'm a weird Deck gamer, in that I often start games and come back once in a while, which I never do on PC, where I try to finish one game at a time
- Death Crown
- Narita Boy
- Citizen Sleeper
- Dave the Diver
- Deep Rock Galactic Survivor
- 60 Parsecs!
- In Other Waters
- Race the Sun -Merchant of the Skies
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
Same here. No oxygen depletion, and go about tearing that thing apart slowly. One thing I haven't managed is to grab the bunny. I mean, I do grab it, but can't get it to appear in my quarters, it just sticks to my hand until I let go.
Oh, I think you have to grab it with x, like you do with parts and data
That lets you know all you need about how relaxed I play. I had no idea X could "pull" as much as push. Thanks so much, I'll do that again today.
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.
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.
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.
Yakuza Like a Dragon. Super fun and super silly, runs perfectly on Deck @40FPS but boy is it a battery hog.
@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.
Ys X Nordics. Tons of fun.
Had a great time with YS 8, been meaning to pick up 9 or 10 whenever they have a decent sale.
Like most Ys games, they're a trudge at first, and some graphical letdown, but they're still great stories with great characters. I remind myself to power through the beginning each Ys game and eventually find myself loving it.
