What games are your currently plaything through on your deck? Would you recommend them to other players?

A healthy mix of:
- Borderlands 1. Still getting used to playing fps on a controller. But flickstick+gyro sure helps.
- Brotato
- 20 Minutes Till Dawn
ETA: also, I should put some more time in Tunic.
Shadow of Mordor
Blasphemous right now. Plays excel·lent bar some issues with resolution. Changing resolution can result in the game freezing when doing an attack, and it keeps happening even if you relaunch the game. I found somewhere that shutting off and on the deck solves it, and it’s true.
As for gameplay having downed three bosses (+ the tutorial one at the start), it’s fun! Maybe too cryptic for my taste, I’ve had to open a guide a couple of times. But the gameplay it’s tight and challenging.
Rain World, gotta 100% the game.
Rise of the Triad, and always have a Civ VI game in flight
Diablo 4
Graveyard Keeper
Halls of Torment
I got mine recently and have been playing a little bit of a lot of different stuff, but the thing I’ve put the most hours into has been Midnight Suns. I did not expect a Marvel game to my new favorite turn-based tactics deckbuilder, lol.
The stupid open world collectible part blows chunks, but the actual core gameplay is shockingly fun, if not perfectly tuned the way some deckbuilders are. The extremely weird lightweight high school dating sim / bioware relationship management aspect is very odd but produces some extremely funny interactions at times.
Path of Exile. It’s been great on the Steam Deck and I’m going through the last few days of this league. Once that finishes I’ll start putting a lot more time into Street Fighter 6 (with the compact portable hitbox controller I made) and some Eldest Souls on the side.
@Fubarberry I recently started Hyperlight Drifter. Great game so far, but its pretty difficult.
Just finished Monster Sanctuary. Moving onto Super Robot Wars 30
I just started Bioshock 2 Remastered. It runs surprisingly well.
Why surprisingly?
There’s been a few recent remasters that weren’t optimized well, but this one runs at 40 fps with no adjustments. I was expecting 30-35 at best.
Grim Fandango! The Steam Deck is perfect for finally tackling my backlog of older games. Also finished 198X recently which was short but good.
198X seems cool. I tend to play lots of older games on my deck too, mostly old DOS/Windows releases which can run with Wine/Proton or Dosbox for me.
Yep, it’s a great throwback for sure.
Thps3 and pikmin 3.
Although I’m likely to buy baldursg gate 3 in a couple days once I’ve heard how it holds up
I got THPS 1+2 on epic and heroic. It’s so beautiful.
I didnt think it was available on pc since I couldn’t find it on steam. I guess I have to figure out getting heroic set up now :)
I just played Spider-Man Remastered. Had a blast. Thought I might get motion sick swinging around, but it wasn’t an issue at all.
A smaller screen probably helps reduce the chance of motion sickness.
