Right now, I’m playing the early access version of Baldurs Gate 3. I’m getting ready to put it down (frustrated: BG3 has the potential to be good, but without controller support, I’m getting really frustrated with the UI. ) and switch to Yakuza Like a Dragon.
What are you playing now and what are you looking forward to playing next?
Dave The Diver!
Last game I played on it, yesterday, was Just Cause 3. It’s… not great. The game just doesn’t run consistently enough and is too CPU heavy.
I recently played Red Dead Redemption 2 on it, that was great. Surprisingly so. I’m playing Skyrim now. I’ve had the game for years but never took the time to properly get into it. I beat the main quest and messed with mods back in the day but that’s it.
Now, I’m playing it vanilla and I want to just go deep into the game, completely ignoring the main quest, I don’t want to be the hero, if the universe needs saving, it can find someone else. Khajiit have caves to explore and stuff. Oh and the new Survival Mode is neat!
If you haven’t played sleeping dogs, it’s one of the biggest underrated games and runs Amazing on the deck
Horizon Zero Dawn. Had it on PS4 and didn’t get far. Having a Deck changes everything.
Is gyro aiming feasible on deck? I wanted to try out horizon but it’s clunky on a k+m and aiming on a controller is hard for me.
HZD is the only game I’ve played on deck so far where the gyro aiming works as joystick. I was completely blown away, I’ve never been able to use gyro as anything but as mouse before, and I’ve been doing gyro aiming on steam controller for years.
Disco Elysium. Fantastic writing and pretty hilarious at times.
It’s also pretty good as a portable PC when traveling too, so that’s nice.
Steam Deck best tech purchase for me in a long time. Don’t judge me too much but I’ve been playing Disney Speedstorm between TotK sessions.
Yeah! It’s such a perfect device. So easy to stuff it in a backpack and just bring it out whenever. It’s honestly everything I’ve ever wanted the switch to be
Usually Indies, a lot of slay the spire recently, but I’ve just started Street Fighter VI.
Tempted by System Shock next cos I never played the original.
Not a steamdeck user but a linux pc gamer so solidarity. Currently playing RE2 and Like a dragon Ishin.
Mostly play indie top-down retro stuff like Core Keeper, but the occasional bout of Halo MCC/Infinite, RDR2, Wasteland 3, and a few others.
If the new Battlebit release anti-cheat functions properly under Proton then I’ll be picking that up.
Mostly point and click adventures. Harvey’s New Eyes is my favorite among those I’ve finished for now
TOTK! Runs great via some of the latest Yuzu updates.
Also Pizza Tower and a bit of PGA 2K21 here and there.
I have 400 steam games, a Series X, a PS5, a Switch OLED, a gaming PC, but I spend most of my time playing Brotato on my Steam Deck.
Playing Cyberpunk and Ace Combat.
As a toddler+newborn dad I flat out need the option of playing on TV or in bed, and instantly flipping on or off.
I honestly never dreamed of something like this when I grew up gaming on Windows 95+. Can’t wait 'til I can game with my sons.
Not the same games but exact same vibe. Need to be able to turn it off literally minutes after I start. Can’t wait to game with the kids. I want them to be older already but also not yet.
Careful what you wish for. All my kids play is the Roblox SDK to design train games lol. Ok I guess we do rock the occasional Mario Cart 😁
Been playing BOTW but also XCOM 2 and the roguelike deckbuilders bundle from Humble Bundle recently. Loving the steamdeck so much.
how is Botw performing?
I am playing TOTK and it’s pretty decent. 30FPS 95% of the time.
Breath of the Wild and Guild Wars 2! Amazing Deck experiences. Forza 5, too, but it’s so dang buggy…
