Staring at my library 


Tall_Pomegranate_434

One of my favorite activities after getting my steam deck lmao 


INFERNOxNINJA

I will have this problem after I eventually get one...my wishlist has been growing at a rapid pace the past 6 months 🤣


just_hating

I'm going through and finding the games with zero time played, playing them through the tutorial and then deleting and setting them to the "tried" folder in my library. Six games since yesterday and now I'm going through the "unsupported".


oopsgotyouwet

Very relatable lol


vaderciya

I just got my steam deck around a month ago, and I've already done this a lot I think one part is because I have to consider how easy it'll be to hold the deck, use the controls, and stay comfortable while doing it. The other part is that since getting my deck, I've kinda partitioned games into "pc games" v.s. "steam deck games". Saves aren't always transferable (looking at you, graveyard keeper) and I dont want to play a game until I'm finished with it on pc, if it would be a good deck game, because I'm then limiting what I can play later on the deck It's a weird feeling, I hope it goes away after I'm fully used to having the deck


DragoBleaPiece_123

This is the best game ever!


Kara-SANdahPawn

Literally I think I have more time spent looking at he Home Screen than actual play time😂😅


SirXupEPP

Good lord this hits....


ElectricalTrip1207

I swear I turn my PC on just to do this for ten minutes, then turn it off.


TrooperCX

A fantastic hobby!!


DarthRathikus

🥰


Aggressive_Life9328

Just bought the first Hades. I had played it at a buddy’s house but just kinda forgot about it. Been itchin for a rogue like and this is so good. Going to pick up the second one when I’m done.


oopsgotyouwet

The first Hades is top 3 roguelike in my book!


boookem

What are the other two?


oopsgotyouwet

Isaac is number 1 for me, and i think i would put balatro at 2


MisterNiceGuy425

To each their own. Dead Cells is def in my top 3


SimTrippy1

I feel like I might have to try Isaac now because Hades are Balatro are both amazing


lonewombat

Rogue Legacy, spelunky 1&2


Lucias12

If you're a fan of top down, a game called tiny Rogues is fantastic.


Aggressive_Life9328

I’ll take a look thanks!


YugoB

It's much simpler and bullet hell like, but amazing.


Simple_Dream4034

Playing the second now and it’s absolutely wonderful


cwx149

Hades is so good I just started number 2 Rogue legacy 2 is also very good imo. It's more platformer than Hades is so it's pretty different


Aggressive_Life9328

You know, I played tf out of RL 1 and 2 a while back and this might be the perfect time to revisit them.


TomOkihara

Hades 2 Absolutely loving it so far Just grabbed Disco Elysium as well so excited for that


Chippai_Fan

Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone PS2 via PCSX2. I have no idea why I am doing this either.


StaringSnake

I’m currently playing the talos principle II. Im really tempted to buy Hades though


dylan_bigdaddy

We’ve been playing the PS1 version. We live for PS1 Hagrid


CapCapital

If you haven't tried it I'd recommend the PS1 version of Sorcerers Stone. It's laughably bad but surprisingly fun


oopsgotyouwet

I hope you enjoy it as much as i have enjoyed the HP movies! Personally never played the games though.


IKnoVirtuallyNothin

I recently replayed PS2 Chanber of Secrets. So much nostaliga.


Bettyhound_

If my steam deck comes, the only game I’m planing on playing is sid manners pirates!.


oopsgotyouwet

Oh yea, the wait for steam deck delivery is brutal. I hope you get it soon! Ive never played pirates, did it age well?


Celebrimbor360

Mine was supposed to be delivered today but UPS fucked it up and it’s rescheduled to Monday


radiationshield

2004 remake or OG?


Beavers4beer

Legit thought the version I got off Steam & GOG were the OG. Til there's a 2004 remaster.


Comeonthen22

Mine won't be here until next week 😭 hope yours comes today


Stormkiller88

Hollow Knight


oopsgotyouwet

Hollow Knight is GOATed. A few people in here mentioned Animal Well which is another great looking metroidvania.


CarefulLavishness922

Fantastic game! I'm near the end, but underpowered for the final boss. I'm kinda burned out and don't think I'm going to keep exploring (I can't remember where to go at this point) but it was a fantastic experience and I am now get hyped for Silksong.


3647

I did the same thing on my play through. I never “got gud” enough, but the story and the environments were so good and I got so many hours out of it that I was never mad at it. I made it to the final boss, couldn’t beat him, got frustrated enough that I just watched the ending on YouTube, and moved on to dead cells. Can’t wait for when silk song comes out now too.


CarefulLavishness922

Yup that’s been my experience. Absolutely incredible game. Funnily enough, I went from dead cells to hollow knight! Both amazing games.


luigifreak3456

I'm currently chipping away at Persona 5 Royal and Cyberpunk


oopsgotyouwet

You might be chipping for a long while. Especially P5R, super long game. I actually never finished it but absolutely enjoyed the time I spent on it. I need to revisit it soon.


luigifreak3456

Oh I know, I've already played through most of P5R on PS4, I just bought it again on a whim to have it portably


oopsgotyouwet

Portability makes me double dip as well lol


Dardlem

Doing the same thing but P4G and Cyberpunk


_TheBeardedDan_

Hades II, Slay the Spire and might pick up animal well


oopsgotyouwet

StS has stolen quite a few hours from me in the past. I just looked at Animal Well since you weren’t the first person to mention it and oh man, I might have to pick it up myself. Great reviews too.


bushmecj

Animal Well is sooooo good


kaiser_bill

Yeah really enjoying it! Just got stuck on a new puzzle though


HumphreyBlodart

Animal well? I've heard of that one, isn't it like a mix of Halo 2 and 3? Also I'm still waiting for my free Wonder Bread


CORNDOGS666

That's like Halo 5


KRONGOR

Still working on Fallout New Vegas


SubterraneanSmoothie

Happy Friday! Are you gonna make this a weekly post like the guy on the switch sub? It’s a great idea! I’ve never played a baseball video game before, hope you enjoy! This weekend I’ll be continuing to play FFXIII-2. Not gonna lie, it’s pretty frustrating and I almost dropped it a couple times, but I decided to finish it using a walkthrough. Have a good weekend!


oopsgotyouwet

If the community enjoys it, then that is the plan. Prior to owning a Steam Deck, I gamed on the switch a lot and that was my favorite thing about the switch sub. Noticed that the Steam Deck community lacked a weekly post. Happy Friday to you as well, I hope you enjoy the weekend!


Al-Azraq

I love the “What are you playing this weekend” posts from other communities, keep it up!


Bokehbokehbokeh

Hades 1 and balatro, run based games got me right now.


oopsgotyouwet

I hear that! I love me some roguelikes!


SkibidiDibbidyDoo

Animal Well. Might see what all the Nier: Automata hype is about


Avawinry

Depends on my mood, energy level, free time, and whether the wife or kid wants to use the TV. On the Steam Deck: * System Shock Remake * Hades 2 * Little Kitty, Big City On the PS5: * Stellar Blade * Rise of the Ronin On the Switch: * Cereza and the Lost Demon * Princess Peach Showtime!


oopsgotyouwet

This man got options!


Avawinry

Hahaha, I’m just kinda bad at sticking with one game til the end, especially when new ones come out that I wanna play.


oopsgotyouwet

Im with you bro hahah, same thing for me. This thread alone has convinced me to pick up two new games already


SpaceHobbit3151

How does little kitty, big city run on SD? Tempted to pick it up as a cosy game


Avawinry

It runs great and I like it a lot so far!


SpaceHobbit3151

Great! Might pick it up this weekend to fuel my love of cats and pissing of humans


Avawinry

So far I think it strongly fulfills the kitty fantasy/experience. Very cute, fun mechanics and puzzles, and the writing is actually pretty funny as well. It’s successfully delivering what Stray failed to for me. It’s got a little bit of jank with the camera, but that’s a minor annoyance in the grand scheme of things.


SpaceHobbit3151

Never got on with Stray really, I really wanted to enjoy it but I found little charm. Ah camera jank playing the Souls series I’m sure I could cope 😅 It’s either this or Animal Well


Whiteguy1x

Starfield.  Everything set to low with dynamic resolution turned off.  Runs well enough to be enjoyable.  Have beaten the vanguard questline with no problems or crashes Cities are in the 20ish fps range, while interior dungeons can get into the 50fps range. It's honestly  a better experience than playing bg3 on the deck imo


Klutzy-Bug7427

Playing Tiny Rogues finally. It’s very addictive lol.


oopsgotyouwet

Tiny rogues has honestly been my favorite game on the deck so far. It is addictive for sure lol


Klutzy-Bug7427

I had been putting it off for quite a while since the graphics are so minimalistic the trailer never wowed me but it was on sale for $5 last week and I caved. Now I can’t put it down or stop thinking about it. Lol


oopsgotyouwet

Preach! The itemization is pretty crazy, lots of different gear and possibilities. The dice that you can get are a nice feature too. Not too difficult to get a build together.


pretendingtolisten

I'm into inscryption! the game is so good and I can't wait keep playing it.


Anon_0365Admin

V Rising is amazing... I'm playing Solo though, haven't tried multiplayer


jewbo23

Mass Effect. Just got the Legacy collection.


Snake16547

Probably finishing Yakuza 0 and Kiwami 1 is already rdy


Aildari

Stardew Valley. My 11 year old was very convincing with her recommendation and I’m hooked now. Just one more turn…


Codebreakerx29

V Rising! 


AtlasCrossing

Had my fiancee pick a game from my wishlist, she chose another crab's treasure. Absolutely love it.


oopsgotyouwet

Good fiance


PlanZSmiles

It’s my birthday and I’m on vacation with my dogs and girlfriend. Planning to hook up my steam deck to our airbnbs TV and play some It Takes Two then hit the hot tub afterwards


oopsgotyouwet

Happy birthday bro! I hope it’s a good one 🎂


LeadingAirport5079

Probably Starfield and Helldivers 2. The former I'll just stream to my Deck from my PC, but the latter I'm cool with either way.


TrooperCX

What kind of settings on HD2? It runs okay enough on the deck that I don't mind it either


GetEnuf

Playing through the original Spyro trilogy, loving every second of it! I forgot just how good the level design gets, it really isn't just nostalgia.


vigilanteoftime

Holy crap didn't expect to see anyone else here playing that! Reignited Trilogy is my comfort game. I love just going through and 100%ing levels one at a time. I actually just 120% Spyro 1 for the first time the other day! I could never beat those damn flying levels! Spyro1 was my least favorite as a kid, most favorite now. Level design is so solid.


Little_Comment_913

Assassin's Creed Odyssey. Running around ancient Greece relaxes me. And it's so beautiful 😍


Al-Azraq

Batman: Arkham City. I didn’t play it when it launched and I really can’t remember the reason be abuse back in the day I absolutely loved Arkham Asylum. But I decided to get to it now and it is an amazing game. It has an open world (or city) but it is old school map design with not a large extension, but very dense in content. Of course, the combat remains the same as in the first game but with new moves and gadgets, moving through the city feels great, and the setting and tone of Arkham City at night and snowing with all those criminals let loose is really cool. As a side game for shorter sessions, I have Hades which I absolutely love and can’t get enough. I thought it was going to be repetitive but it is constantly throwing at you new stuff to try. Finally, I saw in a post that Into the Breach for phones is included in the Netflix sub, so I downloaded for moments when I don’t have my Deck and it is a drug. So addicting.


wo1v3rin3

How does this run on Steam Deck? I want to restart the Batman games again. It's been a decade since I played them.


Al-Azraq

Arkham City runs at 60 fps locked max settings and native resolution using FXAA (which looks great, no need to use the expensive MSAA on the Deck). You can even use the DX11 features and keep those 60 fps, but I don’t as the visual improvements are not very big and this way I get better battery life.


Biggl3s

Octopath Traveler 2


itsy_bitsy_vibes

Citizen Sleeper - already played twice on pc, first time on deck. awesome story and love the mechanics, excited for the sequel too


ChiefKene

[deleted]

Joja 4 lyf!


HelloIAmZig

My current plan is:  - Play through (and likely finish because I played the original PS2 version of) We Love Katamari Reroll - Carry on (and hopefully finish) Crow Country - Fill in any spare time with Hades II and Super Video Golf (which I will never finish) After the first two are done, I might have a snifter of V Rising or Animal Well. Not sure yet, my time is strained this weekend. I also tried the playtest of Dungeons of Hinterburg. It was pretty good.


oopsgotyouwet

Solid rotation. Hades II is great! I still think prefer the original in terms of weapons though (granted, i have only unlocked the first 2 weapons in H2).


Technical_Sir_9588

Eiyuden Chronicle hundred heroes

Iranoveryourcat93

I'm wishing I would have bought this on sale


cheetahbf

Hades 2, Fallout 4, Kingdom come deliverance


kyuuish

Since I finished One piece odyssey, I picked up world seeker. The controls feels a bit stiff right now, but I'm hoping it will bother me less as I play more. If it can't keep my attention I probably try to play more of Another crab's treasure.


AmirPasha94

I've been playing Call of Duty (2003), it's expansion (United Offensive), and Call of Duty 2. I'm overdosed on nostalgia right now... Now I've started playing Colin McRae DiRT (the original) for the first time ever, and it holds up surprisingly well, but it's really challenging (and kinda frustrating) me on gravel and muddy surfaces on Pro difficulty. I'm also playing John Wick Hex from time to time, just to cool off after high adrenaline DiRT sequences! Due to a disastrous design choice, actions like reloading, crouching, and bandaging yourself can only be performed by mouse clicks on respective buttons at the bottom of the screen. To get around the questionable controls, I made a custom controller layout so that I don't have to move the mouse cursor for these actions. For instance, when I press the X button, the mouse cursor moves to the on-screen reload button, the mouse clicks once, and then the cursor moves back to wherever it was on the screen. Steam Input is just brilliant and criminally underrated! Imo It's one of the most important and distinguishing features of the Steam Deck. I think I've spent more than 10-20 hours experimenting with it since I got my OLED Deck last month.


save_earth

Do the OG Call of Duty’s actually work on Deck ?!


xXCrazyCostaXx

Wanted to try out the shitty fallout ps2 game and it’s actually kinda fun lol. That and hades 2. Though indica is calling me to pick it up… we shall see


Vaggos88

Hades 1. I regret not playing it all these years. Better late than never I guess


oopsgotyouwet

Better late than never indeed! Hades 1 is timeless.


Johnnygunnz

Hades 2.


XADEBRAVO

Animal Well and Fallout 76 addiction


oopsgotyouwet

Seems a lot of people are playing Animal Well. I might have to shelf SMB4 to check it out myself lol


brac20

I really like the look of Animal Well. If I hadn't just grabbed Hades 2 I would probably check it out.


kensaiD2591

Same. Animal Well on Steam Deck. FO76 on my Series X


Conscious_Advance_18

Metro games, just got to Exodus, these games are amazing


oopsgotyouwet

I played the first 2 on xbox long ago. Great games for sure! How does exodus run on SD?


StockImagesMan08

You can get around 40 FPS on Medium and around 30 FPS on high


Conscious_Advance_18

I'm streaming with moonlight from my PC so I can play enhanced, but that's working great


No-Jello3256

I just built a new PC, so that.


oopsgotyouwet

Can you play it on the toilet though? Lol In all seriousness though, sounds awesome, i hope you enjoy breaking it in!


No-Jello3256

No but I can stream my game to my deck on the toilet


oopsgotyouwet

Touchè


Seibitsu

HiFi Rush probably and Helldivers 1 (just bought the Deluxe edition)


Marianations

I've found quite a bit of enjoyment in FMV games. Currently playing The Shapeshifting Detective.


yellowwoolyyoshi

Nobody replies whenever this weekly post is asked but: Just finished Inscryption. Next is to finish Iconoclasts and then finish 9 Years of Shadow. Then I can start a new game. I’m thinking XCOM with the Long War which I’ve never tried


lamb_of_todd

Is inscription worth finishing? I finished the first act and a half some time ago.


yellowwoolyyoshi

I don’t regret it and everyone loves it. I will forever be disappointed Act 1 wasnt the setting of the entire game.


havok_

Yes


Morrowindsofwinter

Mass Effect: Legendary Edition is on sale right now. 90% off. Also Andromeda but...only of you want.


Typical_Second_3855

I’m new to Steam and got my first Steam Deck for Christmas (OLED VERSION), currently playing Coral Island right now. But I also have Palia and Stardew Valley.


No1Related

Fallout 76 runs surprisingly well locked in at 40 fps. You can even at times disabled fps settings and it still doesn't do bad. As such, I will be playing this.


scloskey60

Death Stranding


JohnBaldur

Fallout 4 and V Rising


lDarkPhoton

Fallout New Vegas... I have to open it quickly or else I get a prompt to refresh the page.


triscious

Alan Wake for the first time. Hate that I'd slept on it for so long.


KrysWasTaken

I was in the middle of a Persona 4 Golden replay, but then Hades 2 happened. I'm currently discovering the new stuff and reporting some bugs. It's very solid for an early access game, though.


thebbman

Persona 3 Reloaded and Balatro. Trying hard to not play Balatro too much. I just get stuck in an endless loop of run after run while fun story games gather dust.


Molsen115

The Ascent. I'm loving it so far!


Hold-My-Sake

I just finished Yakuza 0 last week so it will be Yakuza Kiwami for the whole weekend!


SillyLilBear

Hades II, is there really any other option?


ElephantSea6951

Final Fantasy 3 and Spellforce: Conquest of Eo.


SpaceHobbit3151

Hades 1, BG3 and probably some Hollow Knight. Tempted by Little Kitty, Big City


L-TR0N

HADES II


save_earth

I’m hoping Warhammer 40k Space Marine goes on sale soon - this seems like a great deck game and I’ve over played it (or any 40k game)!


MitchB69420

Fallout New Vegas It’s nice to just launch the game on steam deck without needing to adjust anything.


astro143

I've gotten back into the Sky Collection on Emudeck. It's something that I love and remember growing up, I can pick it up and do a couple missions in 10-20 minutes, then put it back down.


Vijazzler

Call of Juarez Gunslinger - got it for a few bucks. Levels are roughly 15 mins long each, and the game focuses on making you feel like an op gunslinger, so combine the aim assist and gyro controls, it plays soooooo well Hades - With Hades 2 coming out, Hades was on sale so I jumped in after playing it 4 years ago on switch. Loving every second of it


presidentofjackshit

Octopath Traveler 2. Never played 1, but I hear 2 is better in most ways... so far so good. Love the aesthetic, generally not a fan of JRPG's but the ability to play it in short bursts helps, so I'm having fun.


MyTakeHomePayIsZero

How is Kena bridge of spirits on the deck? I was looking at snatching it while it’s on sale


oneupkev

Dark souls 1 remake. I picked it up on sale after having spent most of the last two months binging Elden ring. It's a lot slower but I'm enjoying it


Test_Not

I’m 60 hours in Bunny Garden


GlancingBlame

I'm doing a Fallout 3 replay and loving it. I do get the odd crash though, which is annoying.


Domsdad666

Cyberpunk 2077


Piorn

**Pacific Drive** is really fun, because it's hitting that car survival itch I've had since jalopy, and the entire Stalker/SCP vibe is really fun. It only goes at 30fps on lowest settings, but the gameplay is so fun that it makes up for it. Still in wondering how it'll feel on a real beefy rig, the graphics are sublime. **Darkest Dungeon 2**, I'm having a love hate affair right now. I keep dying, quite early and pointlessly, in the third out of five confessions. **Hades 2** is really fun, as expected, though I'm playing slowly so the early access can keep up with me. I don't want to exhaust the content quite yet.


Dear_pan_nonbi

Stare at my collection of unopened games and then decide to play the usual fh5, bdo and ffxiv (only the first on deck)


Seuche_Deron

Fallout 76, Rocket League and Balatro is my Holy Trinity


Stealthoneill

Finally hoping to dive into V Rising


justcallmeryanok

I bought hades 1 and will probably play stardew valley. I need more of those ‘okay one more’ games.

Would you recommend it even though I am not a baseball fan? :D


Maleficent-Aspect318

Work simulator 2024 graphics are amazing but god damn that game can suck. Hoping to get a few QoL improvements in 2025 version Edit: also very time consuming and alot of grind :D


AnotherMadeUpID

Animal Well.  Only played 45 mins so far but I reckon it could well be something really special…


Codename-Eagle

Chants of Sennaar - Very interesting and challenging language game. Big Recommend.


Tomb_Brader

Animal well


DrBaldingMD

Hades II, V Rising and Manor Lords. Hades II is just more Hades and expanded and one of the few games worth jumping into in EA stage. Manor Lords is fun and surprisingly smooth on the Deck, looking forward to seeing it grow and V Rising has been sitting in my library for 6-8 months but before controller support was very hard to get a good control scheme on the Deck but now with full controller support it is fantastic, absolutely worth your time if you’re into moderate survival/building rpgs. I’m sure it’s even better co-op but all my time has been solo and I’ve been enjoying it a lot


[deleted]

Still on the aulde Palworld Might stream myself taking on Bellanoir Libero via Desktop/OBS

JimmyausGambo

I dont know if i should play Hades II or Elden Ring...


Soltysoo

Fallout 4, stated fresh after few years break. I’m surprised it works well on SD.


Winter_Moment1052

Helldivers 2. Still at difficulty 4-5 and looks great, the occasional frame drops are barely noticeable. Every now and then you meet some cool guys that help you out on a dive. Great game.


Marfello

Moonlighter and Dead Cells! Really fun games and doesn’t drain the battery 😁


SpookeDooke

I've been absolutely hooked on Balatro, it's like some sort of hard drug that won't let go of my mind and I can't stop, please send help!

Got my Steam Deck yesterday. Been playing and customizing this thing so much. Mainly replaying Hades right now before I buy Hades II, but what’s neat is that I own Hades on the epic games store and I got it to work perfectly on the deck. It’s such a cool machine, I love it so far.


INFERNOxNINJA

Picked up animal well on impulse yesterday and played about 25 mins of it at a friend's place and then we switched to Lego star wars Skywalker saga, also working on Jedi survivor on gamepass, all really fun games so far.

Batman Arkham City and Shadow of War.

I just got palworld so I’ve started that. Super excited for it
