Not sure if this is heresy here or not, but I just bought an ASUS ROG Ally. It’ll be here Wednesday and if you guys wanna recommend me some games, do!

Haha, well maybe a bit heretical considering this declares itself to be the successor to steamdeck_linux and not even just steamdeck. Guess I wouldn't worry about it too much though.
Install Arch on it.
Yakuza 6. It can't reach 60 FPS, but if you cap it to 30 it's pretty stable and only needs like 15W, despite looking pretty nice. I'd want to play System Shock on the Deck, but the devs are too dumb to figure out how cloud saving works, so alas.
I'm just getting into RainWorld after completing Celeste.
How is that going for you?
Hearing a lot of mixed signals about the difficulty
Recently finished another play through of Rise of the Tomb Raider.
Started Shadow of the Tomb Raider, but went back to playing some older titles starting with Legend.
How does Legend play on the Deck? I've played the whole of the new trilogy and up to 3 of the old ones (all of them before I got the Deck). And I wanna get into that "middle trilogy" too, the Deck sounds like a nice fit for those games.

High on Life and Arkham Asylum. Also CS:Go but that's an everlasting game.

Just some Mk8 deluxe & Bloons TD6. Need to finish Jedi Fallen Order & Tears of the Kingdom, but mastering inside drift is too good to pass up lol
Completed:
- Broforce: fun but gets repetitive.
- Ori and the Will of the Wisps: great.
- The Stanley Parable: Ultra Deluxe: a worthy successor.
Currently playing:
- Celeste
- Baba is you
- Sonic all stars racing

Saw a recommendation for brotato on here, bough it before going on holiday and now I'm paying this instead of, I don't know, sightseeing and shit
For me it's been XCOM 2, and now Skyrim. As well as Elden Ring a bit.
Half life 2 Stardew valley 64 roms
I recently just bought Zuma Deluxe from the summer sale because of nostalgia. It's a bit tough to use the trackpad initially but you end up getting used to it. Other than that, I emulated Animal Crossing
Tons of Days Gone. So sick of open world games but this has consumed me
I finally got back to Tunic after a few months' break. Ended up finding a page and an item I had missed, and then it was smooth sailing to the next (second?) boss, which I found to be a super fun fight.
How does it run on Deck? I tried it briefly on Xbox thanks to Gamepass. The game looks lovely, the first hour or so was fun. It feels like a perfect deck game, but only if the performance is stable.

On a Remedy run. I finished Quantum Break two days ago and now on to Alan Wake. Next comes Control (maybe i need a small genre break in between )
Control was the first game I played on SD and it was phenomenal.
Diablo 4! I’m really pleased with how well it runs.
Diablo 4 looks interesting, but $70 and microtransactions just rubs me the wrong way.
Fwiw, I didn't even know there are micro transactions, and I'm about 3/4 through the story line and having a great time
I’m really into it so the outlay is worth it for me, already clocked hundreds of hours since launch.
The cosmetics are egregiously expensive, but they’re only cosmetic so they are quite easy for me to completely ignore.
Fallout 4. Its the first game I thought of when the Deck was announced and hoped it would be playable. I haven't been disappointed after 8 hrs on my Deck.

Just finished Assassins Creed 2 and Brotherhood and I’m playing through Revelations for the first time
Burnout paradise
I've been playing a lot of RedOut2 and Before We leave.
Recently I've been cruising though Sludge Life
Docked: Final Fantasy XII: The Zodiac Age. Perfect for laying in bed, has a near auto-battle combat system between cutscenes that i can enjoy comfortably.
Undocked: Persona 2: Innocent Sin. I'm trying to get all the achievements via RetroAchievements and am at the point where it's just grinding so it works elegantly for those random chances I find to put some playtime in. I played through the story, which was great btw, mostly docked.
Been playing Brotato and Traveler's Rest most recently, but really want to get back to Yakuza 0 and Spiritfarer.
