This may overlap a lot with the discussion on what people are buying during the Steam sale discussion, but here it is anyways.

    I’m still mostly playing doom 2016.

    I had a twenty year break from gaming and I’ve been trying to catch up since I got the steam deck but I remain pretty crap. I’m playing doom on little bitch mode and still finding it a challenge. I’m about half way through, I don’t get a lot of gaming time.

    I keep starting other games but not getting into them. But I think I’m gonna give dishonoured a try too.

    Steam deck is probably the best machine I’ve bought in years.

    Warzone 2100. You gotta dl it through the steamos explorer, but its fantastic on the handheld once you configure the controls

    I spend hours setting up mods for games I’ve never played before so I can play the “best” version of it just to either get it working and play for a hell of a lot less time than I spent setting it up or giving up and going back to one of my comfort games.

    Mad Max, snatched it for 2 bucks during the sale. Pretty good and chill game and well worth its price.

      Whoa. It runs on deck? I just finished it on desktop. Completionist wise it was such a burden and I wish it didn’t have any achievements. Hopefully your sand trip is awesome!

    After finally upgrading to a 1TB ssd yesterday, I can finally splurge on some bigger games.

    So right now I’m mostly playing vampire survivors

      I get what you’re saying, but the sentence order definitely sounds like you needed to upgrade to 1TB of storage in order to play bigger games like Vampire Survivors.

    Tunic. This game is beautiful and sessions on a full battery can last a while without charging. Highly recommend.

      This one is such a banger. Look up guides on how to parry consistently if the game didn’t explain it well enough. It’s crucial to the enjoyment of the game, yet it is explained oh so poorly.

    Mouthwashing, which I should finish tonight, Selaco - this one required a bit of tweaking but can mostly hold 60 now - and Balatro.

    Monster Hunter: World + Iceborne was on sale so I snagged it and I’ve enjoyed it quite a bit. Runs just fine on the deck and even though the game is clearly intended for multiplayer it works totally fine as a solo game.

    The main issue I had with the game is that there’s no pause button (as mentioned, it’s a game oriented towards multiplayer) which isn’t really compatible with my current life but with Decky Loader and the Pause Game plugin installed I can easily pause the game mid-quest without worrying about failing the time limit.
