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?
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.
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.
Not a steamdeck user but a linux pc gamer so solidarity. Currently playing RE2 and Like a dragon Ishin.
Celeste Strawberry Jam
An absolute masterpiece that runs perfectly on the Deck
Yeah, baby! Somebody point me in the direction of another Steam Deck subre-… Channel?
I’ve been playing lots of Street Fighter 6, but also Metroidvania indies. Currently playing through They Always Run and it’s pretty much pixel 2d Mandalorian and it’s pretty damn cool!
Horizon Zero Dawn. Had it on PS4 and didn’t get far. Having a Deck changes everything.
After religiously following the order number tracking efforts on the Steam Deck subreddit (finally got mine May '22) it’s been my ‘clearing the backlog whilst sitting with the significant other’ device…heavily punctuated with Vampire Survivors and, lately, Diablo 4. It’s a great little roguelike device – stuff like Cult of the Lamb, Spelunky 2, and Rogue Legacy 2 – that I can just play for a few minutes wherever the Heck I’d like.
I still find it like holding black magic. I’m a software engineer, and I understand how it works, but playing a Windows port of a PS4 game (like Horizon) in Linux in my hands is something I don’t think I’ll ever not be impressed by!
Vampire Survivors for a while. Lately I just finished up a run through of Pokemon Red and just got started on a run of Pokemon Silver.
Stardew Valley works nicely with the Steam Deck, though with all the mods it literally takes 10 minutes to load. On the plus side though, the suspend feature basically let’s me just keep the game running for days.
Recently: Skyrim yet again, Portal 2
Currently: Horizon Zero Dawn, Wreckfest, Emulators
Next: Probably Cyberpunk. I started it a few months ago, but have been playing Horizon instead.
Diablo 4, runs pretty decent.
I’ve been playing Diablo IV since it came out! Runs surprisingly well.
I’m currently really into playing Mount & Blade Bannerlord on the Steam Deck, but I use it for just about everything these days. Between my whole Steam library and emulators that can play all the games I grew up with, it’s like having my whole gaming lifetime in a tiny portable machine.
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.
