Skyrim (two-handed Orc barbarian/bandit that despises magic, so goes out of his way to not use anything enchanted and kill magic users) and Fallout 3 for the first time to hold off my Starfield hype (on Series X)

Also bought a ton of rogue-likes this weekend from the sale - Hades, Risk of Rain 2, Slay the Spire, and Dead Cells. Never played Hades until now and it's amazing, of course. The rest I've played a bit, but not a ton for each of them, so it's fun getting into them all. I think these style games are some of the best for the Deck.

I snagged Marvel Midnight Suns two days ago and I am HOOKED. I love card builder roguelites and this game added another layer of interactivity with 3D positioning and environmental attacks.

I also adore the Persona style relationship sim going on. A big part of why I love the MCU is the personality and relationships between characters, so having the Persona r/ship sim going on is a perfect addition to the game!

Fallout 4. Its the first game I thought of when the Deck was announced and hoped it would be playable. I haven't been disappointed after 8 hrs on my Deck.

[–] oryx@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

I bought it a week ago and had buggy dialogue, soft locks, etc. in the house and at the gate to the vault. It was insanely broken. A fresh reinstall did nothing. Ended up refunding and buying Fallout 3, which has been fun so far. No clue why 4 was just busted for me.

Diablo and Dave the Diver!

[–] tom@feddit.nl 1 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Completed:

  • Broforce: fun but gets repetitive.
  • Ori and the Will of the Wisps: great.
  • The Stanley Parable: Ultra Deluxe: a worthy successor.

Currently playing:

  • Celeste
  • Baba is you
  • Sonic all stars racing

Not sure if this is heresy here or not, but I just bought an ASUS ROG Ally. It’ll be here Wednesday and if you guys wanna recommend me some games, do!

[–] 73ms@fosstodon.org 1 points 2 years ago

Haha, well maybe a bit heretical considering this declares itself to be the successor to steamdeck_linux and not even just steamdeck. Guess I wouldn't worry about it too much though.

Install Arch on it.

Yakuza 6. It can't reach 60 FPS, but if you cap it to 30 it's pretty stable and only needs like 15W, despite looking pretty nice. I'd want to play System Shock on the Deck, but the devs are too dumb to figure out how cloud saving works, so alas.

[–] gogosempai@programming.dev 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

High on Life and Arkham Asylum. Also CS:Go but that's an everlasting game.

Been playing Brotato and Traveler's Rest most recently, but really want to get back to Yakuza 0 and Spiritfarer.

Roots of Pacha (caveman style Stardew), Disgaea 5 and Octopath 2

Sorry for double post, can’t figure out how to delete

[–] Uvine_Umbra@partizle.com 1 points 2 years ago

Just some Mk8 deluxe & Bloons TD6. Need to finish Jedi Fallen Order & Tears of the Kingdom, but mastering inside drift is too good to pass up lol

[–] vlad76@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 years ago

For me it's been XCOM 2, and now Skyrim. As well as Elden Ring a bit.

[–] WeebLife@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

I've been playing resident evil revelations 2. It's actually really good on the deck

[–] pai_zosima@sopuli.xyz 1 points 2 years ago

Half life 2 Stardew valley 64 roms

[–] WarzoneOfDefecation@lemmy.one 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Friend recommended Halls of Torment because he knew I liked Vampire Survivors. Quite enjoying it so far, I think it improves VS in some ways and gives it a Diablo 1 aesthetic.

I've been playing a lot of RedOut2 and Before We leave.

[–] svncake@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

I recently just bought Zuma Deluxe from the summer sale because of nostalgia. It's a bit tough to use the trackpad initially but you end up getting used to it. Other than that, I emulated Animal Crossing

[–] notme@feddit.de 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

On a Remedy run. I finished Quantum Break two days ago and now on to Alan Wake. Next comes Control (maybe i need a small genre break in between )

[–] Peafield@programming.dev 1 points 2 years ago

Control was the first game I played on SD and it was phenomenal.

[–] pipariturbiini@sopuli.xyz 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I finally got back to Tunic after a few months' break. Ended up finding a page and an item I had missed, and then it was smooth sailing to the next (second?) boss, which I found to be a super fun fight.

[–] Biberkopf@feddit.de 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

How does it run on Deck? I tried it briefly on Xbox thanks to Gamepass. The game looks lovely, the first hour or so was fun. It feels like a perfect deck game, but only if the performance is stable.

Docked: Final Fantasy XII: The Zodiac Age. Perfect for laying in bed, has a near auto-battle combat system between cutscenes that i can enjoy comfortably.

Undocked: Persona 2: Innocent Sin. I'm trying to get all the achievements via RetroAchievements and am at the point where it's just grinding so it works elegantly for those random chances I find to put some playtime in. I played through the story, which was great btw, mostly docked.

[–] MildManneredPate@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago (3 children)

Diablo 4! I’m really pleased with how well it runs.

PS2 God of War 1&2 lately. Also some Cult of the Lamb and Don't Starve Together.

[–] Dragonmind@lemm.ee 1 points 2 years ago

Spark the Electric Jester 2/3 are sick af!

Protodroid Delta is super fun!

Hotshot racing is a blast from the past despite requiring being online to even start for no reason.

Battlebit Remastered, but I do have a work pc incase they introduce the new anti-cheat to protect servers from DDOS.

I'm also thinking of getting into Ridge Racer for the first time, but MAN the car turning is WEIRD. Makes me want to start NFS Underground.
