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?

    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!

    Disco Elysium. Fantastic writing and pretty hilarious at times.

    It’s also pretty good as a portable PC when traveling too, so that’s nice.

    Celeste Strawberry Jam An absolute masterpiece that runs perfectly on the Deck

    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.

    Over the year I’ve finished Outer Wilds, Hades, PikuNiku, the second Ori game, and have been slowly getting through Elden Ring. Next is probably Tunic, but idk if it’s worth my time after playing through the first 2 hours.

    Nowadays I can’t use any other controller than the deck, so I sometimes link it with the pc just for that - I just can’t live without the gyro and the back buttons

    Currently playing BOTW, Stardew Valley, Cassette Beasts, and Shadow Tactics Blade of the Shogun (I have trouble focusing on one game at once.)

    Super excited for BG3 too, although I’m waiting for controller support with the full release first.

    I am currently playing Red Dead Redemption 2 on my deck, performs well enough (the major concern is the affect to the battery if playing handheld). Keyboard required for first time set-up (virtual keeb didn’t work).

    Others:

    No Man’s Sky - endless playability imo and was my go to when I purchased

    Planet Zoo - I haven’t actually played on deck yet, but I got my desktop setup where I only need to use the mouse, and plan to try the strategy on my deck.

    Dofromantik - this is a relaxed puzzle game that is very good on deck

    Podman - containerization is a game, and the deck is a Linux computer after all :)

    Steam Deck install base: less than 2 million

    Nintendo Switch install base: 125+ million

    But by all means let’s talk about Steam Deck.

    Here we go again…

    Been mostly playing ToTK on switch like some here, though I think I’ll have to give a few more attempts at P ranking some bosses in Pizza Tower soon, or perhaps try to 100% Hifi Rush
