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 use my deck daily. Anything that is super intensive I actually just stream from my PC upstairs to my deck / or TV downstairs using the deck. For native games I am currently playing Diablo IV, Eastward, and about to start XCOM 2 after finishing the first game entirely on deck earlier this year.

Some games through Steam I have played on Steam Deck(in no particular order): Cassette Beasts; Wizard of Legend; Skyrim; Tunic; Bugsnax. I have also played a few from Flathub through the Discover application. SuperTuxKart can be fun. Minecraft through Prism Launcher with a controller mod is decent enough, although I would prefer to have mouse and keyboard available.

Q1 decker here. Got mine back in April last year. Right now I'm playing the Crash Bandicaoot N. Sane trilogy, but I often use it for emulation. I finished Zelda Twilight Princess and Ori WotW a few weeks ago. Not sure what I'll play next. Whatever I fancy when I finish Crash (for the 3rd time).

I'm not so active with mine at the moment since I have a desktop computer, but back when I was recovering from a knee injury away from home, it was not just most of my gaming, but also my personal computer for most tasks, via a USB-C hub hooking it up to the keyboard and monitors I was using for work. I ended up completing a personal image editing project using GIMP installed in its desktop mode.

Playing Divinity Original Sin 2, great controls on steam deck.

I keep buying games, but I'm only playing death stranding 😅😅😅

Slay the Spire, American Truck Simulator, Bloons TD6, Deep Rock Galactic were games I had a good experience with.

I had a USBC Dongle and was also able to play games like TMNT Shredders Revenge, Out of Space, Moving Out, Plate Up and Overcooked with other people very easily by bringing it with me and extra controllers.

Another one here! Mostly playing Witcher 3 at the moment. And before that Disco Elysium.

Happy to be here. Vampire survivors for me, lol.

Wanna get into God of War, though

100% agree on the controller support for BG3. I tried playing it on the deck and it was just too cumbersome for me.

Recently, I was able to get Diablo IV to play using Lutris. That has been running incredibly good.

Other than that, lots of EmuDeck! I've started replaying Final Fantasy Tactics: War of the Lions with a patch that fixes up some issues with the base game.

Love the deck so much. You can just do so much with it.

Playing Persona 5 Strikers and constantly feeling withdrawal as I want to get to NEO:The World Ends With You after playing the DS original. Which I feel like is in the spirit of patient gaming, because while the game is like 2 years old, I got into this situation for playing a 15 year old game.

There are dozens of us! I’ve just been happy to get through my Steam backlog since my gaming PC died. I recently played Horizon ZD and am about to start Shovel Knight Pocket Dungeon

[–] GlenTheFrog@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 year ago

Love my Deck. Haven't been playing as much since I've been playing a lot of TOTK on Switch, but currently I'm finishing up P4G

[–] sirfig@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

As I don't own a playstation I am playing the horizon zero dawn game, it is quite good. I will probably then play the final fantasy remake.

[–] Mendamigo@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Alien Fireteam Elite! Runs very well on the Deck.

Playing Resident Evil 3 Remake right now. I'm amazed at the graphics and how smoothly it runs for me. First Resident Evil game I've played, and it is so so scary!

So far I'm enjoying it though. The darkness, the lights and fires make it look so pretty and atmospheric

Batman Arkham City, then I moved on to Arkham Knight but I streamed that from my desktop because it's more demanding. Now I'm trying to figure out what to play next. Maybe Jedi Fallen Order.

Raises hand playing God of War 2018. Think I’m going to play Bulletstorm next. Not enough time to play all the games I’d like to.

[–] TableBreaker@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

I had been playing hollow knight, but then I got yuzu and Zelda: tears of the kingdom. It's been awesome.

[–] Mars@beehaw.org 2 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Hey! I’m playing Yooka-Laylee, Skyrim and Moonlighter.

I’d really like to get good with FPSs on sticks, but seems to much for me, so I play Deathloop docked.

I’m currently playing Persona 5, it’s a good game. If you haven't already, play MGS:V it’s an incredible experience on the steam deck.

Currently playing Traveller’s Rest, it’s a little tavern, stardew-like game. Pretty fun but a little bare on the content at the moment.
