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’ve been playing Spiritfarer and Forza Horizon 4 on mine as of late.
Playing Cyberpunk and Ace Combat.
As a toddler+newborn dad I flat out need the option of playing on TV or in bed, and instantly flipping on or off.
I honestly never dreamed of something like this when I grew up gaming on Windows 95+. Can’t wait 'til I can game with my sons.
Not the same games but exact same vibe. Need to be able to turn it off literally minutes after I start. Can’t wait to game with the kids. I want them to be older already but also not yet.
Careful what you wish for. All my kids play is the Roblox SDK to design train games lol. Ok I guess we do rock the occasional Mario Cart 😁
I have been playing a lot of BotW and DRG on it. Playing BotW on it is amazing, for DRG or mainly any shooter on it there is the problem of me not being used to aim with the gyro properly yet.
Usually Indies, a lot of slay the spire recently, but I’ve just started Street Fighter VI.
Tempted by System Shock next cos I never played the original.
Steam Deck is great but I’ve been stuck on Tears of the Kingdom. Once I finish that, ill probably hop back on Hades or Signalis.
Recently just finished the base difficulty story mode of Furi (amazing game highly recommended) and the lightning boss in Zelda tears of the kingdom.
is TOTK running ok?
Depends where, sky islands / the majority of the map runs locked 30fps (ignoring sharer compilation), but bigger towns like gerudo drops it to mid 20s, and the lightning boss dropped it to low 20s. Still playable but not a great experience in those instances.
I have 400 steam games, a Series X, a PS5, a Switch OLED, a gaming PC, but I spend most of my time playing Brotato on my Steam Deck.
Playing the game I’m developing
What kinda game is it?
Hey had some trouble replying, it is a space RPG
LEGO Builder’s Journey has been really fun, its a great game to play at night to wind down even though it’s pretty short
Last game I played on it, yesterday, was Just Cause 3. It’s… not great. The game just doesn’t run consistently enough and is too CPU heavy.
I recently played Red Dead Redemption 2 on it, that was great. Surprisingly so. I’m playing Skyrim now. I’ve had the game for years but never took the time to properly get into it. I beat the main quest and messed with mods back in the day but that’s it.
Now, I’m playing it vanilla and I want to just go deep into the game, completely ignoring the main quest, I don’t want to be the hero, if the universe needs saving, it can find someone else. Khajiit have caves to explore and stuff. Oh and the new Survival Mode is neat!
Playing Divinity Original Sin 2, great controls on steam deck.
So good and such a great game for the deck.
I love how simple it is to play games on the Steam Deck The user interface is straight-forward, like it is with the other gaming consoles
PRO TIP: Turn Off the FPS Counter, you get to enjoy the game you are playing MORE
Never.
Had mine since launch, been chilling playing P5R recently.
Jak II emulated. Hard as hell, but really fun.
You might want to keep an eye on OpenGoal. It’s a decompilation of the original engine. This allows you to run Jak 1 natively, and they’re working on porting Jak 2 as well. This can also result in higher performance, better graphics and more :)
I’m a huge fan of Thiers. Just had the urge to play Jak 2 now after finishing Jak and Daxter with OpenGoal. Hopefully 3 will be decompiled before I have the urge again.
Good to hear! I actually still haven’t really played it, although I set it up on my system. I got the urge to play more platforms, including Jak, after I finally beat one of my favorite childhood games, Rayman 2 The Great Escape, a few months ago.
I have one, but borrowed it to my neighbor to try it out and see if he wants to purchase one. :)
I don’t play on it often honestly, but I mainly use it if I’m going to bed and don’t want to sleep, flying, visiting in laws, or want to play controller games. It’s console lite for me.
I played Brotato on it for way too many hours.
It’s pretty much the same for me, basically only use it when I’m to lazy to sit infront of the pc or I’m simply just not at home.
I do have to admit the syncing over Steam works amazingly, I can stop playing on my pc sit on the couch and my latest save is already on there.
It does work really well, but doesn’t sync when you’re playing offline and want that to go back to your desktop or want the hours to show up. :(
I had a similar problem when trying to sync non-steam games, then I stumbled upon syncthing. I’m hosting it on my Pi, so it would sync for me even when I’m offline, but being at a different place is an issue then.
