Haven't seen a post like this recently so I thought I'd start the conversation !

I'm close to finishing Wario Land 3 (emulated GBC), which was the game of my childhood, I'm surprised of how tricky some levels are.

I also started playing The Eternal Cylinder but it's quite a demanding game so I'm thinking of playing it on PC instead

I'm playing two games at the moment:

Yet another run in Nier: Automata, second playthrough, first time on steam deck. It runs surprisingly well.

Stardew valley. For steam deck it's a killer game - 8-9 hours on a battery, perfect for resting.

I also have Snowrunner and Vampire Survivors as my go to games.

Nier: Automata, first time in steam deck. It runs surprisingly well.

It's a story that's been told here before, but one of the major projects that makes the Steam Deck work (DXVK, which converts DirectX in Vulkan for Proton) was made because a guy really wanted to play Nier Automata on linux.

It’s one of the games I missed when it came out and it’s on my backlog for a while. Good to know it runs well on the deck!
