For me I’m currently trying to push my way through elden ring. But gosh it sure gets hard half way through, especially underleveled and offline. I need to find that mimic summon.

Other than that, cycling through local coop games like PlateUp. Any suggestions?

      Same, I was playing Death Stranding but I paused it because I’m hooked by Blasphemous.

    Taking a break from hunting achievements in Hollow Knight and starting to get into Horizon Zero Dawn which I bought last Steam sale. The battery sure seemed to last a lot longer while playing Hollow Knight…

    Dicey Dungeons, Streets of Rogue, Enter The Gungeon (its default controls are kinda weird though); I played Cassette Beasts for about 10 hours but then I got bored.

      +1 for Dicey Dungeons. Playing it on the Steam Deck might actually be the ideal format, too. I don’t think I could have cleared the Witch campaign at all if I hadn’t broken that up into dozens of micro-sessions.

      One thing I will lament, however, is the Steam Deck’s current poor support for Bluetooth headphones. Being forced to resync headphones constantly forces me to play on mute most of the time, but it’s practically a crime against fun to play without the Dicey Dungeons soundtrack.

        I keep dedicated wired headphones for my Nintendo Switch and Steamdeck. As usual bluetooth ones for phones and tablets.

        If you get a pair of bt headphones exclusively for the deck, they seem to stay paired in my experience.

        As in, the headphones are only paired to the deck and nothing else.

        But yeah, wired is still easier in 2023 :(

      I was going to say I remember remapping the blanks to one button in EtG and also moving the map button around, but on SD, the back buttons must be great, since most of my playtime was before I got mine.

    I’ve been playing through Horizon Zero Dawn! Cryotools really helped stabilize the frame rate and I’ve been enjoying the crap out of it. I’m level 40 right now with about 25 hours in.

    Hades, Returnal, and Hi-Fi Rush at the moment.

    I think Hades is exactly what the SD was made for.

    Into the breach. Such a simple yet perfectly thought out game, which you can easily sink a lot of hours into. It’s also cheap.

      I just bought it, and am absolutely loving the art style and gameplay. I’m excited to see how the mechanics get more complex as I progress. 1.5 hours in and I’m hooked!

      Also, got the recommendation to buy it from the fediverse so that makes it even a bit more sweet!

    Been playing Deep Rock Galactic on the deck. Also finished up RimWorld recently, which actually worked pretty well on the deck.

    Right now I’m half way through Final Fantasy VII Remake. I never played the original but have always heard good things about it. I unfortunately already know the big plot point about a certain character but so far I’m invested in the story!

    I don’t have time for longer SD sessions so I only play like once or twice a week now, but halfway through Persona 5 Strikers (with the audio bug on Proton, sadly) and I REALLY want to finish so I can get to NEO: The World Ends With You, ever since I beat the DS original. …I end up procrastinating work with Youtube instead. Actually, for the past year or two, playing games feels like I’m being productive, comparative to scrolling online.
