I don't like always online games.
Some years ago a friend asked me to play Diablo 3 together, so I bought it and tried it in singleplayer to get familiar with it, since that was the first time playing a Diablo game.
I got very hard lag - in a singleplayer session and lost the connection to the server several times.
It was such an awful experience that I couldn't bring myself to play it online anymore.
I love my Steam Deck and use it for smaller indie titles I can play for a short time through the week.
At the moment I play Flood of Light, which works pretty well despite being a game relying heavily on mouse controls.
And as a second: Super Panda Adventure. A surprisingly fun metroidvania.
Casette Beasts is next, already played about an hour, but I want to finish the others first.
Veloren looks really nice, never heard of it before.
I have several comfort games to put my mind at ease sometimes.
At least once a year it is Skyrim with mods to improve the scenery.
But I love playing the Atelier series too. Crafting and optimizing stuff in these games is great.
And then there are puzzle games like Baba is You where I often just close the game and think about solving the problems for a long time. Helps to keep your mind occupied.
Both Windows 11 and Arch Linux with KDE. I am using my PC mostly for gaming and drawing. Since almost all games in my steam library work without tinkering and Krita and Aseprite work like a charm I rarely use Windows 11 at the moment.
Some games I recommend:
Alina of the Arena: A roguelike deckbuilder game. It has turn based tactical battles. There are lots of cards and builds you can try, but there is a fair amount of randomness to it. So you have to go with what you get.
Unreal Life: A really strange, surreal adventure game with a talking traffic light. Great visuals and music.
YumeCore: Just a short little game where you beat up people in a hospital. Why? Why not?
Flood of Light: Great little game with pretty much one core mechanic (direct lights). The Engliah translation isn't the best, but I really liked the atmosphere.
Brotato: Is it a hidden gem? I don't really know, but it is a fun "Vampire Survivor"-like game and a huge time sink. Great shop mechanic and large amoint of characters and items.
