Sorry, bit late on this one. Life’s been hectic.
Mainly Balatro and Factorio at the moment, after finishing Forza Horizon 5 (whatever finishing in that game means lol).
Dangerous Waters.
Very old style, bit clumsy on the controls, but incredibly tense with the gritty sonar stuff.
Been only playing the P-3C airplane so far, but there’s also tons of submarines, a helicopter and a frigate.
It is so satisfying to find and torpedo a submarines after staring at sonar graphs and dropping buoys for a while. Love it! I’ll be sharing an updated aircraft-oriented controls config when I’m happy with it, based on the one community config that was there, which was more sub-oriented.
Ocarina of Time. I didn’t grow up with the older games but I’m having fun so far. I’ll play the other titles afterward
Tape to Tape. It’s a roguelite hockey game that has a big sense of humor.
Persona5Strikers. Got it last month with humblebundle’s choice, and it’s pretty good. My first ever persona game…
Did you have to use GE-proton to get it to run? I think that used to be a requirement, but I’m curious if it runs without it now.
I dont think so? Just downloaded and pressed play. Maybe it did use glorious eggroll’s version but idk. will check.
Witcher 3, Just finished the main story. And boy, CDPR really nailed the story/ character writing in this game. Looking to grab “Hearts of stone” & “Blood and Wind” DLC next GOG sale.
What an amazing 50hr time sink!
Yakuza Like a Dragon. Super fun and super silly, runs perfectly on Deck @40FPS but boy is it a battery hog.
I picked up Persona 5 Royale during the sale for 30 bucks.
I was a huge fan of P4G on the PSVita.
P5R is so stylish and it does such a great job of speeding up so much of tedium by allowing fast travel to most places.
Everything feels so snappy, the soundtrack is killer, the gameplay is fun. Runs like a dream on the OLEDeck. I’ve been enjoying taking it slow and getting to know the characters. Just finished the first palace.
Frontier Pilot Simulator even though it doesn’t work offline for some reason.
I bought Vampire Survivors since it was slightly discounted and have only heard rave reviews about it… I sank 7 hours in my first day lol!!
Picked up all the DLCs too. Imo worth the money to support the developer
I’ve played 60 hrs of Vampire Survivors in the last year since I got my SD OLED. Had the game platinumed before the latest DLC release. Just a ton of fun
I have it on my tablet (Android), and I love it. It is so simple, but satisfying.
Hardspace: Shipbreaker. After a rough day of work, there’s something incredibly soothing about dismantling a spaceship over a couple of hours.
Me too! I’m playing it on the easiest mode so I can just not stress and enjoy the hygge of breaking down spaceships
Same here. No oxygen depletion, and go about tearing that thing apart slowly. One thing I haven’t managed is to grab the bunny. I mean, I do grab it, but can’t get it to appear in my quarters, it just sticks to my hand until I let go.
Oh, I think you have to grab it with x, like you do with parts and data
That lets you know all you need about how relaxed I play. I had no idea X could “pull” as much as push. Thanks so much, I’ll do that again today.
Mostly CrossCode. A fun little sci-fi action puzzler that pays homage to the SNES era of games. It’s similar to Spirit of Mana. Low power requirements, and it has a Linux-native version that works better than the Windows version (you need updated engine files if you play from itch.io).
I’m also playing a little bit of No Man’s Sky, but just here and there; I’m mostly playing that on my desktop.
Do you play No Mans Sky alone or with friends? I picked it up for my deck but havent tried it out yet… Unfortunately one of the reasons why I have a deck is my PC can’t handle some games
Alone. I don’t currently have friends that play it, but I still have a good time. Works great on Deck, and you can even make use of HDR settings, if you have an OLED version.
still cyberpunk. just started the phantom liberty stuff. man is that ever not stealth decker friendly.
Is it the Phantom Liberty part specifically that isn’t deck friendly? I replayed some of base cyberpunk on my OLED recently, and was really impressed by how well it runs now. I seem to remember performance being a lot worse when I tried it back on my original LCD deck.
The new content just has a bunch of parts where you are mobbed so if your playstyle is ninja decker and not the best up close and personal it can be tough. Its definately a bit different with a ton of parkour initially and many hidden item caches. I actually just got through the initial mission and now everything has opened up.
Wilmot Works It Out - much simpler than Wilmot’s Warehouse, an extremely enjoyable puzzle game.
I was about to ask how well the Wiimote works with the Deck.
Sea of Stars. 🌊✨
It’s a really well done, turn based style rpg.
Been enjoying it a lot.
It’s a good time for SNES spiritual successors!
I just started Chained Echoes, another snes-style rpg
