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 don't use my steam deck all that much, just when traveling. The last thing I played on it was Warhammer 40k Mechanicus, and that plays wonderfully on it. Definitely recommended.

I've been playing through Mark of the Ninja Remastered. It works pretty well after you switch to Proton, as the native version has some bugs and crashes.

Before that, the previous game I played through on the Deck was A Short Hike, which is incredibly cute.

Right now I'm in a mix of Diablo IV, No Man's Sky and Brotato. They all play very well on the Deck!

How’s the performance and UX for Diablo 4. I’m very curious to know if the controls feel tight.

[–] megabucks@lemmy.ca 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I find it very tight. I opt to use the controller even when playing on PC.

[–] devilsgarage@beehaw.org 1 points 2 years ago

excellent! Thank you for the suggestion - I shall definitely add this to my list of games to play next. I have not yet experienced the Clan mode, including the chat and whisper options. I'm a bit worried that socializing might be a bit tricky on the deck because of the screen size.

I played WoW on the deck (in docked mode) and it worked great. Played WoW for the first time after 2 years pause, have been subscribed for 10 years before.

Besides that I played Yakuza Zero before that in handheld mode... didn't even finished it cause I put so much time in the side activities. Definitely recommend Yakuza Zero.

Here! Playing A Short Hike and loving it.

Very happy to be on the deck after so much switch time - feels like there are tons of steam games i’ve been ‘saving’ for years.

Just started Monster Hunter Rise. Played it on switch, wanted to get through sunbreak on the deck.

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

Project Warlock and Dead Cells at the moment. Chained Echoes as mentioned is great on deck also. Gonna give Dragon's Dogma a go in anticipation of 2.

I was playing GTAV, Deus Ex: Human Revolution and Final Fantasy Tactics PSP but the new Zelda dropped and I've put in like 70hrs already.

[–] GaryPonderosa@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

I've been using my steam deck mostly for older stuff that I bought and never got around to playing, like Hades and Dragons Dogma Dark Arisen.

I have been playing Frostpunk for the last couple of weeks. I'm into city-builders/micromanaging games, so it works for me. I finished two scenarios so far; three more to go.

Render96 the PC port of SM64 works amazing on it and only takes up 6W TDP, even with all the mental stuff going on when you enable chaos mode in the cheats.

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

✋ here. I've been playing mostly Zelda Tears of the Kingdom.

[–] man_teiv@feddit.it 1 points 2 years ago

I finally finished if after 100 hours. I'm taking a break (and waiting for master mode). It's such a beautiful game.

great. It was a little rough on release day, but the fact that it ran at all was surprising. Also stuttered for a little while at the start since it was compiling shaders. Now, for me anyway, all the kinks seem to have been worked out and it runs great. Better than some switch gameplay I've watched actually.

[–] natryamar@lemmy.fmhy.ml 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Ah nice I was tempted to switch over to my deck to play it but then I got bored and set it down. What kind of FPS do you get on it? 60 would be nice but im not crossing my fingers.

I had been playing hollow knight, but then I got yuzu and Zelda: tears of the kingdom. It's been awesome.

[–] iChukau@beehaw.org 1 points 2 years ago

The Steam Deck helps feed my FFXIV addiction.

[–] brotherballan@lemmy.one 1 points 2 years ago

I've been enjoying me some Assassin's Creed and Doom on my Deck. It's not the best experience, but definitely serviceable to kill some time when not on my PC.

[–] Venus@slrpnk.net 1 points 2 years ago (7 children)

Lots of emulated games, mostly. Retrodeck is kinda jank but when you figure it out it's such a convenient way of using most emulators you'll need.

Mostly playing Fallout 3 atm. Planning on finally finishing Skyrim on the deck as well. I've also played quite a bit of itch.io games on there lately.
