Just scrapped an XCOM 2 ironman campaign because I realized I'm not legendary material. A squad of 4 with basic weapons vs 12-14 enemies that need at least two shots in a small room.

Fallout 4. Been wandering around the wasteland and helping settlements in need.

Somehow I had missed that Bannerlord has come to consoles, been waiting for this one a long time.

Sequels often disappoint, but so far this one strikes a great balance between keeping what made the original fun, incorporating new ideas, and adding a ton of quality of life features that fix what made the original a bit frustrating.

Obviously porting this kind of game to a controller is a huge task, and over all they did a good job. Some of the map and menu navigation is a bit clunky, but in almost every way it's better than warband.

Looking forward to never being able to finish this one either.

Picked up Anno 1800 to play with a friend. It's been really fun so far.

Minishoot Adventures. A cross between Zelda and a Bullet Hell. Honestly, great fun and perfect for the Steam Deck. I've had a hard time putting it down. Shame about the name tho :)

Zelda/bullet hell sounds like an unlikely combination! I’ll have to look it up and check it out.

Yep, Hellda!

I have been playing a lot of Operation Harsh Doorstop, a free multiplayer shooter with realistic combat and vehicles. Recently the game has really started to come together into a fun experience (and it runs decent on my steam deck).
