This may overlap a lot with the discussion on what people are buying during the Steam sale discussion, but here it is anyways.

After finally upgrading to a 1TB ssd yesterday, I can finally splurge on some bigger games.

So right now I'm mostly playing vampire survivors

[–] Fubarberry@sopuli.xyz 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I get what you're saying, but the sentence order definitely sounds like you needed to upgrade to 1TB of storage in order to play bigger games like Vampire Survivors.

it was a little bit intended as the joke (although a true one)

Tunic. This game is beautiful and sessions on a full battery can last a while without charging. Highly recommend.

This game evoked a feeling of wonder and discovery that I’ve rarely felt since childhood

The Witcher 3 two DLCs, now that I finished the base game.

[–] Water_Melon_boy@lemmy.zip 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Hell yeah! Both DLC are so cheap on GOG during black Friday .

[–] TheHobbyist@lemmy.zip 2 points 1 month ago

Yeah, even the bundle of the base game together with both dlc is a steal.

Playing Pentiment right now

Bluey: The Videogame. Worked past the resolution issues, the control issues, and now it is great fun with the 4 year old.

I broke down and bought Baldur's Gate 3. I really tried to like it, but I did not.

So now I bought Horizon: Forbidden West, but the Deck can't play it, so I'm playing that on my desktop.

[–] dan1101@lemm.ee 5 points 1 month ago

My most played games continue to be Stardew Valley, Brawlhalla, Superflight, Just Cause 3, and Puyo Puyo Tetris.

[–] DireTech@lemm.ee 4 points 1 month ago

Fallout New Vegas with Viva Las Vegas. Plays great.

[–] any1th3r3@lemmy.ca 4 points 1 month ago

Mouthwashing, which I should finish tonight, Selaco - this one required a bit of tweaking but can mostly hold 60 now - and Balatro.

[–] partiallycyber@ttrpg.network 4 points 1 month ago

Monster Hunter: World + Iceborne was on sale so I snagged it and I've enjoyed it quite a bit. Runs just fine on the deck and even though the game is clearly intended for multiplayer it works totally fine as a solo game.

The main issue I had with the game is that there's no pause button (as mentioned, it's a game oriented towards multiplayer) which isn't really compatible with my current life but with Decky Loader and the Pause Game plugin installed I can easily pause the game mid-quest without worrying about failing the time limit.

Nearly done with Metaphor ReFantizio, and also playing some Astalibra and FEAR.

I recently found out that FEAR won't run well on modern windows PCs, and installed it on my Deck to see if it ran better on linux. Turns out it runs fantastically, with the Deck able to outperform any windows machine. I intended to only test performance, but FEAR is one of my favorite shooters of all time and I quickly got suckered back in. So I guess I'm going to do a full playthrough now.

Currently Metal Gear Rising.

[–] AdamBomb@lemmy.sdf.org 2 points 1 month ago

This one is such a banger. Look up guides on how to parry consistently if the game didn’t explain it well enough. It’s crucial to the enjoyment of the game, yet it is explained oh so poorly.

Space Marine 1, A Good Snowman is Hard to Build, Slay the Spire, Cross Code, and Droplitz.

Castlevania Dominus Collection. I don't know how I ever beat the games way back when, now I have to rewind during boss fights a lot. Got bored with Dawn of Sorrow as it dragged on towards the True Ending, really enjoying Portrait of Ruin. Johnathan's mobility combined with Charlotte's "fuck you and everyone around you" make such a great team.

Tomb raider GOTY through the heroic launcher.
