I’m enjoying Marvel Midnight Suns. It has very fun combat tactics, I probably should turn up the difficulty but I love flinging soldier at each other.
I just wish it turned down the social elements a little bit. The game feels like it was a fan fiction dream of its writers and so you spend time going to a book club with Blade or having your supporting comments rejected by turbo-grump Captain Marvel. It’s also hard to absorb drama behind a premise such as “People can get perma-hypnotized.”
To clear my backlog a bit I recently played Little Kitty, Big City, Smushi Come Home and now Paper Trails. Currently more on the ‘cosy train’ of games. I think Little Kitty, Big City was the first game I played on the Deck that implements the Steam Input API.
Need for Speed Heat. I forgot how much fun the NFS games could be. Plus it looks gorgeous both docked and undocked.
I’m also working my way through the Yakuza series, about ⅔ through Kiwami 2 at the moment.
NFS Heat is my favorite one. Good soundtrack, and the different track types and gameplay between day and night really keeps it interesting.
Satisfactory runs great on the deck, takes a bit of doing to get the control scheme working well. It’s a serious time sink though. Loads to do. Currently moving from my starter factory to my first mega factory.
Did you publish your control scheme on steam input I haven’t found any that are steam deck focused that really work?

Check this the update 8 is what I used and changed some configuration to suit my tastes
This is great thanks
No problem
The Talos principle 2. I liked the first one but this one is so much better.
It runs great on SD except I would prefer some text to be larger. It is readable it’s just a bit uncomfortable for my eyes.
I’ve found the deck magnification shortcut to be unhelpful when I’ve used it - often because the resolution of the text isn’t high enough for it to look legible when blown up.
So far just subnautica. I have never played it before, but it definitely fits the handheld + couch vibe more than the keyboard and mouse one.
I’ve fired up What Remains of Edith Finch and handed it to my teenaged niece. That seems to be going well.
I’m playing some Unicorn Overlord, it took a while to kick in but now I’m totally hooked.
The usual balatro with some skyrim and euro truck simulator on the side.
Right now i’m looking for some management game, because euro truck does not scratch the itch enough.
Have you gotten Greece yet? I just started driving it this week after speed running the winter challenge lol
Nope, it’s actually my first “playthrough” and i do not have a world of truck account. Do you think it’s worth it if i’m a beginner?
Yeah, I like using the online contacts when I can’t find an offline contract for the destination I want
Then maybe i’ll give it a try! Thank you for the suggestion
Mother 3 fan translation, gives me 7 hours of battery :) always loved Earthbound so it’s nice to finally play the “sequel”
Bit late to the party but slay the spire and dredge
I decided to stop playing Mario and Luigi Superstar Saga because the game became too tedious and I wasn’t having as much fun with it. A shame because I loved M&L Dream Team and wanted to start from its roots.
Now currently playing Sea of Stars and Hades.
path of exile 2, campaign and maps up to tier 5 ran fine so far :)
also bought the soul reaver remake, but path of exile 2 ran fine so far…
Glad to hear it. I have been holding off on PoE2 since I almost exclusively play on my Deck and have heard some mixed things.
vulkan renderer, everything on low, fsr, no dynamic resolution.
i am playing a grenade throwing merc, framerate was mostly stable @ 30fps but i can see how a summoner build or some of thos crazy walking firework simulators people turn there chars into might be to much for the deck.
higher tier maps might also be tough as they contain more rare monster, with more effects, but i don’t know how many people even interact with that kind of content, iam certainly far away from it playing without trading.
I recently started Bombrush Cyberfunk and I’m enjoying it. The combat isn’t great, and the music doesn’t work as well as the original JSR soundtrack, but otherwise it’s really good and I recommend it.
I’ve been swept up by Palworld. I started my own server up for my partner, myself and some of my friends. My partner and I played most of last night waiting for the ball to drop. I may have gone a little overboard trying to breed the perfect Pals.
