Spider-Man:Miles Morales. Hopefully by the time I beat it Spider-Man 2 will be on Steam and Deck Verified

Spider-Man is good too if you haven't played it yet. Runs well on the Steam Deck.
Spider-Man Remastered was indeed great! I beat it then went right to Miles Morales. It’s been a Spider-Man kick here haha!
I played it twice in a weekend, so be ready to wait
I've started a new playthrough of Fallout New Vegas. Never got round to finishing it last time, so hopefully will do now! So far I've added some stability mods and a new radio station. Anyone got any other mod recommendations?
For a long time I went down crazy modding rabbit holes for the fallout games, spending more time modding than actually playing. I finally decided to just pick a setup and stick with it so I could actually enjoy the game. I ended up following this guy's modlist which has a nice focus on the essentials.
My Steam Deck is a "Baba is me" machine right now, most of the time. It is a neat little puzzle game to play while sitting on the couch.
So frustrating at times! Some of the harder puzzles are ridiculously convoluted
This is so dumb, but:
The new Forza Motorsport has a system where you have to drive a car for like 3 hours before you’re able to upgrade all of the parts on it. Regardless of how many credits you have.
So I’ve been using xCloud to “play” Forza with all of the driving assists on—accelerating, braking, shifting, all of it—just to level up cars to the point I unlock all of the upgrades to that car. (Offline, of course. Not gonna mess up someone else’s game because of Microsoft’s weird ideas on progression.)
So “AFK racing” has been running on my Deck more than any other game this week.
Wow, that sounds awful. Reminds me of shitty mobile games.
Yeah, I guess they were going for “engagement” or whatever metrics look good to the C suite pinheads.
But the actual racing with a properly upgraded and tuned car feels really good! So I enjoy the actual racing, and let the computer do the grinding for me lol
Deck is currently being borrowed by my dad to play Zero Dawn, but last I had it, I was using it for Final Fantasy VII Intergrade.
Dave the diver, casual enough to play just before going to sleep.
Dragon's Dogma: Dark Arisen I just wanted to see how well it ran (decently enough, a few more stutters / slowdowns than I hoped but certainly playable) and now it has been the main game I've played for several weeks 😅 Game is fun :b
Spiritfarer, which looks like it’s related to Stardew Valley, but turns pretty damn dark at times. Also Baldur’s Gate 3, Stray and Hollow Knight.
BG3 really needs to be played plugged in as it eats battery like crazy and also helps with a bigger screen. At which point I might as well go down to the big computer.
Finally got around to playing Carrion. It's a great game for the deck and is a massive amount of fun.
Binding of isaac
Ni No Kuni II. It's a fun RPG that's easy to put down and come back to when you have time. The combat is fun too, though the voice overs are a bit distracting.
Tomb raider 2013. Doing solo at 100%
I hope to play some more Baldur's Gate III. I'll probably stream it from my main computer since the fan noise is so loud otherwise. It's been a while since tried to run it on the Steam Deck so there might have been some updates, gonna try it again! I'll probably make some progress in Stardew Valley and Hades too, both wonderful games for the Deck!
A friend got me into Honkai Star Rail, so that's been taking up most of my time.
Other than that, I've also been playing Black Mesa and Trolley Delayma which is a free little trolley problem game.
I'm still putting off Baldur's Gate 3 hoping for FSR 2 to be added, but with silence from the devs on when/if that's being added, I'll probably go ahead and start playing it soon.
How did you get HSR running on a Steam Deck?
There's a 3rd party launcher for it. They've asked people not to link it publicly, so I'll send you a DM.
Thank you!
Mine has mostly become a YouTube player for my kid. It also runs Roblox, and the occasional Counter-Strike 2.
Currently going through every Metroidvania Castlevania posterior to Symphony, went through the Advance Collection and had to resort to emulation for the NDS ones, currently on Portrait of Ruin. After that we'll see.
Just started playing Slime Rancher and it's a pretty fun relaxing game. I picked up Slime Rancher 2 as well but am waiting until I finish the first game to start playing it again.
Haven't used my Deck in a while, but yesterday I played Overwatch on it. New gf plays on console, so she was on Switch and I was on Deck. I'm not good at controller Overwatch but after a few games I felt like I wasn't a complete drag on our team at least.
Played most of COCOON during a recent airplane round-trip. Also started Pocket Mirror, I got an RPG Maker fever after playing Corpse Party.
still vampire survivors 😵💫
Trails into Reverie. Then onto Kuro No Kiseki.
Been rocking out with Songs of Syx, a rather fun little city builder/colony management/4X mashup. Gotta admit I’m getting back into strategy games with the touchpad lol
Still Baldur's Gate 3. And a little bit of Untitled Goose Game on the side.
Slowly getting through Lego Bricktales. Building on a flatscreen isn't as satisfying as the real thing, but it's a nice little game to play on Deck.
Hollow Knight.
I started playing it at the start of this week, and have been completely hooked into it.
What I find pleasantly surprising is that I gave the game a few chances over the years, but it just didn’t click. Perhaps as I was playing on a PS, and I find it very odd to play platformers and similar games on it.
Just finished shadow of Mordor yesterday and it was fun, and worked perfect on the deck. Today I started Darkwood, seems to be working reasonably well so far, although the run versus walk controls are a little clunky, but overall no big issues just an hour in to it
Baldur's Gate 3, mostly. But I've been playing Pathfinder Wrath of The Righteous when the others in the group I play with can't play.
Oh, and some Cities Skylines II here and there. Works reasonably well with the controller, but it's not perfect.
High on life since I don't get to play much but have a marginal stack of games to get through. Good game so far and very witty
Factorio and I just picked up a game called Outpath (similar to Forager, but in 3d! and other minor changes).
No Man's Sky for few months now.
Also started Hellblade, its very easy to get stuck in that game it seems
been playing West of loathing and shadows over loathing lately. Fun and stupid, nice to be able to play them on deck
Still Lonely Mountains: Downhill And newly bought Warhammer 40,000: Boltgun
