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?
Blasphemous
Same, I was playing Death Stranding but I paused it because I’m hooked by Blasphemous.
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.
Been playing some minecraft java editiom, since the 1.20 update just dropped.
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.
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…
Finished Witcher 3 main quest in Steam Deck (the font is so small on Deck)
Now got consumed by The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom
Monster Hunter Rise, Underhero, and I just bought Halo MCC for my first ever Halo playthrough.
You’re in for a treat. MCC is good fun
Hades, Returnal, and Hi-Fi Rush at the moment.
I think Hades is exactly what the SD was made for.
Oxygen not included
You play ONI on the Steam Deck? Does it work well?
I play it on Ubuntu with proton and it works perfectly well. It very very rarely crashes.
I’ve played that also and it honestly does super well.
I just started a Terraria play through to play with the mod “starlight river”, it’s still early but really impressive so far
What’s that mod about? Maybe I should play it again
It adds a lot of stuff that isn’t exactly Terraria styled, including boss fights with their own set arenas

Edit: it’s still Alpha, expect bugs also AFAIK nothings post hardmode yet
Sweet ty!
I have been playing Alan Wake remastered
Trying to get through all the games in that universe before Alan Wake 2 releases.
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.
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!
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!
