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?

Slayers X, this is a funny meta boomer shooter made by one of the characters of Hypnospace Outlaw, Hypnospace Outlaw is also great to play on the Deck.

I got mine last July, and it’s quickly become my favorite “console” of all time. Rn I’m playing Fallout New Vegas and emulating some older Monster Hunter games.

I recently played through the entire Yakuza franchise on it too.

I’ve been playing Prey, loving it so far. After that I want to get back into Witcher 3

Oh yeah. Witcher 3…it’s been a minute since I played that. I don’t know how well I’d be using the deck for it though since I find the device a bit big for my hands. Reaching all the controls is a challenge for me. But I do have it on steam. It would be totally worthy to fire it up on my deck and see.

Plays great on the deck for me (some small text UI issues) but runs lovely overall.

Been playing a lot of the Resident Evil 4 remake, and Stalker Anomaly. The gyro controls for aiming are amazing.

I just recently got my Steam Deck and I’ve been playing through GTA IV, as when I bought it my PC ran it like garbage and by the time I got a decent PC, GTA V was the new hot thing. It’s been an amazing experience so far, and after I’m finished with this I’ll probably jump into Red Dead Redemption 2.

Got mine a couple months ago, my most played games so far are Doom 2016, Doom Eternal, Monster Train, Isaac and Enter the Gungeon.
Some others I like that play well on the deck with good controller support: Crypt of the Necrodancer, Spelunky, Cluster Truck, Baba is You, Hades, Hotline Miami 1 & 2, Mark of the Ninja, Steamworld Heist and of course Vampire Survivors.
Previous thread for some more ideas.

I absolutely love the steam deck. I bounce around games, the most recent new release I played was Hogwarts Legacy. More recently I've been using it as like background occupation to listen to podcasts and have been playing euro truck sim 2 and American truck sim. It's also gotten me back into Elite: Dangerous so I should probably finish that exploration route I had set up. I also very almost finished Celeste (like I'm on the final level), so I should probably go back and finish that. Like I said, I bounce around lol.

Playing next I'm not really sure, I bought KSP2 on launch day but wasn't really able to run it, but the new updates seem to have majorly improved performance so I'll try that when I next feel like it.

Love the Steam Deck. I’m able to play so much more than I did before. Currently playing Persona 5 Royal and I’m really enjoying it. I’ll be at it for a while so I don’t know what’s next. Maybe Octopath Traveler 2 or Persona 4 Golden.

I'm currently playing totk on my Deck, looking forward to Diablo 4 once I get done with it. I basically use my Deck every day, it's a great way to sit on the couch cuddled up to my wife while she plays on the Switch or such

I’m over 100 hours into AC Odyssey. Took some fiddling to get it stable and working but runs flawlessly now!

[–] devilsgarage@beehaw.org 1 points 1 year ago

Such a fun game! I should have got that for steam deck instead of my console - would have been fun playing it on long trips

[–] zerkrazus@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

I want to get one, but don't have one yet, unfortunately. A bit out of my price range at the moment.

[–] Demondice@beehaw.org 1 points 1 year ago

Vampire Survivors, and Pico-8 games via Emudeck. Once I'm bored of those I plan to spend a bit more time with Snowrunner. I've never really got into it, but it looks like my sort of game.
