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?

Im currently swapping between playing Rimworld, and Tape to Tape.

Tape to Tape is a hockey rogue lite that playes like classic nhl games with a bit of Mario Strikers.

How is Rimworld on the deck? I've seen that it's supposed to be "Verified" but it seems like a game with so much mouse-based activity that it would be really annoying to try to do on the deck.

Also, how does it handle mods? Because I may have... one or two... hundred.

Not the OC, but I personally wasn't fond of trying to play it on the Steam Deck. The UI just really lends itself to mouse and keyboard IMO.

I'm sure you could get comfortable playing on the Steam Deck with time, but there's definitely going to be an adjustment period.

As for mods, I probably don't have nearly as many as you installed, but it worked perfectly fine with the 5-6 mods I was using.

Yeah, that was my take as well. I tried playing for like 10 minutes and just the amount I was having to use the little thumb trackpad to do stuff seemed like way more pain than it was worth.
