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?

I’m currently hooked on Diablo IV. It runs perfectly on the Deck, and has ended up being the place I play it the most now.

What I noticed on the desktop, and this might not be Linux specific, is that sometimes the framerate just goes to crap until you reset specific graphic settings. I typically uncheck & check smooth shadows as that's a quick one. At least they seem to fixed the general FPS degradation over long play times that was present in the beta events.

Lies of P demo. Been waiting on BG3 release, but might keep that to PC. Thinking of picking up Cassette Beasts.

My Steam Deck is mostly an indie/retro machine that I play while I'm vegging out in bed/on the couch at the end of the day. Lots of PS1 games and whatnot

Dark Souls 2 with a very nice lighting mod. It's called DS2LightingEngine SOFTS. I played DS1 and DS3 but could never get into DS2, partly owing to the visuals which I really didn't like. Now it looks cool and I'm getting a few deaths in here and there on the deck.

Just started Monster Hunter Rise. Played it on switch, wanted to get through sunbreak on the deck.

I have been playing Frostpunk for the last couple of weeks. I'm into city-builders/micromanaging games, so it works for me. I finished two scenarios so far; three more to go.

I've been using my steam deck mostly for older stuff that I bought and never got around to playing, like Hades and Dragons Dogma Dark Arisen.

[–] atfergs@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Project Warlock and Dead Cells at the moment. Chained Echoes as mentioned is great on deck also. Gonna give Dragon's Dogma a go in anticipation of 2.

I was playing GTAV, Deus Ex: Human Revolution and Final Fantasy Tactics PSP but the new Zelda dropped and I've put in like 70hrs already.

Render96 the PC port of SM64 works amazing on it and only takes up 6W TDP, even with all the mental stuff going on when you enable chaos mode in the cheats.

I've been enjoying me some Assassin's Creed and Doom on my Deck. It's not the best experience, but definitely serviceable to kill some time when not on my PC.

LEGO Builder's Journey has been really fun, its a great game to play at night to wind down even though it's pretty short

[–] Ticktok@lemmy.one 1 points 1 year ago (2 children)

✋ here. I've been playing mostly Zelda Tears of the Kingdom.

[–] man_teiv@feddit.it 1 points 1 year ago

I finally finished if after 100 hours. I'm taking a break (and waiting for master mode). It's such a beautiful game.

Looking to get a steam deck as my next big purchase. Seems like the perfect gaming device for me
