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?

Minecraft and RetroArch

I'm trying to learn Magic the Gathering on the steam deck, but damn I'm getting my butt kicked. If anyone knows how to learn it I'm all ears.

I have rainworld on my list to play next, for now I'm mostly on Tunic.

I am! I go through phases of playing it, and at the moment all of my attention is elsewhere (namely, TotK on Switch) - but, once I'm done with that I expect that I'll go back to my ridiculous backlog, and Apex Legends.

System shock! The remake is really good and worth a look for anyone who was into the BioShock games

[–] FlashMobOfOne@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

Not a steamdeck user, but I got the itch to do a Bioshock Infinite replay a week ago. I'm halfway through and it's my third. I'm about to enter Finkton, so the game's about to get even more emotional. :)

I'm a mix between emulated games and various roguelikes - D4 and WoW work really well too (though WoW is a bit of a headache to set up a good functional UI).

[–] Sat@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

I'm playing Yamafuda and maybe will try the system shock remake.

I've heard the controller support is awful there though.

I've been playing a ridiculous amount of Persona 5 Royal lately. When I'm not playing it, I've been playing Brotato.

I have a Steam Deck but I'm not really using it enough. It's a great device but my gaming PC is just so much better. I use the Steam Deck when I'm travelling, but that's about it really.

I love how simple it is to play games on the Steam Deck The user interface is straight-forward, like it is with the other gaming consoles

PRO TIP: Turn Off the FPS Counter, you get to enjoy the game you are playing MORE

Currently working my way through botw. I know it's old at this point but I have never played before. Also cyberpunk 2077. I started and never finished. I want to be ready for the dlc that is coming out soon

Beat TOTK on Switch, now replaying on Yuzu on Steam Deck

[–] Phen@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 years ago

Does it run well on your Steam Deck?

Are you using any specific settings or did it run well out of the box, so to say?

[–] hannes3120@feddit.de 1 points 2 years ago

I'm using it almost exclusively during commuting between my hometown and my girlfriend's current city (nearly 4h) for which the deck is an absolute godsent

Played through the Sherlock Holmes games and now am playing the Ace Attorney games (for which the Deck is probably a bit overpowered but so what).

Not a huge fan of fast-paced games on the deck since I have a pretty good PC at home with a 144hz 1440p monitor which I really miss with games like Else Ring or (especially) Rocket League

[–] Holzkohlen@feddit.de 1 points 2 years ago

Mostly point and click adventures. Harvey's New Eyes is my favorite among those I've finished for now

[–] TenSlot85@lemmy.ml 1 points 2 years ago

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.

[–] void@fedia.io 1 points 2 years ago

SteamDeck is GREAT for light roguelikes. They are often designed with controller in mind and are light on the battery.

I've been playing

  • Dead Cells
  • Hades
  • Slay the Spire
  • Skul
  • Undermine
  • Vampire Survivors

All great on Deck

[–] NoPolToday@beehaw.org 1 points 2 years ago

I'm playing through Far Cry 6, and it's running perfectly (Proton GE). I'm genuinely surprised by how good it works, even if that game chews my battery.
