My Steam library basically only consists of Witcher 3 and Spiritfarer. I also was gifted a Humble Bundle game for Batman Arkham Knight.

I’m debating on getting Elden Ring and Cyberpunk (both without DLC).

Marvel’s Spider-Man and FF7 Interograde also look like a good value right now for 40 bucks total.

Edit, ended up doing the following:

Becoming a Steam Family member with my dad and buying the following.

  • FFVII Retrograde
  • Mass Effect Legendary
  • Divinity 1 and 2
  • Caveblazers
  • Portal 2
  • Hollow Knight

I also set up emudeck and transferred all my GBA, GBC, and GCN games that I have ROMS for.

Monster Hunter Rise is great on handhelds like the Deck.

Dragon Quest XI is one of the best JRPGs I ever played, and it has an extensive demo (about 10-15 hours) that lets you transfer your save game to the full game.
Problem is the save transfer didn't work on Linux last time I checked about 2 years ago. Maybe Valve fixed this since. Otherwise if you have a Windows PC you could transfer the save game there, but keep in mind you won't be able to download the demo anymore once you've purchased the game.

Welcome to the joys of Steam OS!
