Bought several to share through Family Beta, but the two for me were Bravely Default II and Catlateral Damage. Played the first two Bravely games on the DS, and the other game I got just looks like fun.
As for what I’m playing? Backlog 😅 When I’m in the mood for story rich I’m playing Death Stranding. When I’m in the mood for just something fun I’m playing Peglin.
Deep Rock Galactic: Survivor. Logged in at least 21 hours in it. It’s also at that price point where you feel indifferent if you don’t like it.
i’ve only bought one right before the steam sale but i have a bunch i’m considering later this week with payday. :)
before the steam sale i got secret of mana and i’ve been enjoying it so much (as someone who played the og so much at my friends house growing up)
i’m also considering final fantasy 13, final fantasy 12, two point campus/hospital, trials of mana, MAYBE jedi fallen order but it is an ea game so eehhh, fable, and tbh i’m thinking about the south park suite of games just for a dumb, stupid mindless steam deck game :)
it’s also not steam deck compatible but i’m also thinking about pro wrestling sim since i loved tew.
Started playing #BLUD, I’m only about ten minutes in because sleep got the better of me last night but it looks pretty good so far.
I got an OLED the other day and splurged hard during the summer sale.
I got Stray and Little Kitty, Big City to show off to my cat-loving GF, and for me I got Dave the Diver, Sifu, and Babu is You. Also picked up Hollow Knight for good measure, but have yet to start it. 9 Sols, Mullet Madjack, Warhammer Boltgun, Baldurs Gate 3, and Return of the Obra Dinn all on my wishlist.
I bought FH4 since they announced it’ll be delisted by the end of the year. I’ve previously played it a lot via gamepass, but despite the fact that it doesn’t have Cross-Progression with the Steam version I still bought it on Steam so I could play it on Steam deck. Medium settings run at 60fps!
Other than that my backlog is big enough that I will abstain from the sale. Recently finished The Werecleaner (short and funny free game) and Black Mesa. Now playing CrossCode, FEZ and Nightmare Kart.
FH4?
Forza Horizon 4 - I had to search to the acronym
Ah, thanks
Playing FH4 too, trying to get all the playlist related achievements before it’s too late 😋
One thing I’ve noticed is that you can’t be signed in from two places, so if you decide to play on desktop after playing on the deck, you need to sign in again…
I bought Baldur’s Gate 3, Deep Rock Galactic and Undertale.
Right now, I am trying to get into Mass Effect 3, but I think I need a little break from it after completing ME2.
The new season of DRG has suckered me back in, and some more of my friends just bought it as well. I hope you have a good time with it, it’s possibly my favorite game of all time.
I can’t be the only one who bought Animal Well
I bought it when it released and loved it, very cleverly designed and works perfectly on Steam Deck. Also just for fun, try swiping across the touchscreen…
Bought Everspace 2 (but on GOG) and so far it’s playing great, even though power consumption is still quite high. But it’s great for a session of about 1-2 hours, which I am fine with. Otherwise still playing wandering Village from the last sale and a bit of LotR RtM.
Bought Dicey Dungeons as a good one to play on Deck. I can run it with the TDP on the GPU set to 3w, which increases the battery lifespan impressively, while still running great! Plus the game itself lends itself well to the deck I’d say.
Great game, I’ve now bought it on 3 different platforms which is rare for me.
I bought Tunic and Crosscode.
I jumped straight into Tunic, and am having a great time. I recently finished Outer Wilds and was wanting another knowledge based progression game.
Did you also get recommended the “Metroid Brainia” video on YouTube a few days ago? https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=JA3UAYgd5Nw
I also just bought Tunic and Outer Wilds! Tunic is great so far
I did, but I haven’t actually watched it yet. I’ve been wanting to buy tunic/ow for years now.
Enjoy, both OW and Tunic are up there in my favourite games. Return of the Obra Dinn is another good one, if you didn’t play it already.
Chasing after that same high, I bought the newest versions of Myst and Riven, never played the originals. Quite stumped in the first level of Myst. I feel like I may enjoy Riven more, but gonna try and stick with Myst first.
Return of the Obra Dinn is on my list, but I haven’t played it yet. I did play through Forgotten City earlier this year, and it was really good.
I bought Reus 2 (A puzzle god game) at launch last month - game changer!
Finally a game that I enjoy playing on the deck and actually want to play after work on my commute etc. highly recommend it.
I picked this up last month, and it’s a blast.
I bought The Falconeer yesterday, haven’t played it yet, I’m looking at my wishlist and considering more options
I picked up quite a few games - Deathsmiles, DoDonPachi Resurrection, Mega Man X Legacy Collection, Mushihimesama, ProtoCorgi, Star Wars Galactic Battlegrounds Saga, TMNT Shredder’s Revenge and Ultrakill.
I’ve only played ProtoCorgi so far and I kinda love it - I mean, you’re a corgi, barking or shooting lasers at various enemies in space, what’s not to love?
I’ve already played most of the other games before and wanted to own them on Steam, except for Ultrakill (and I’m really looking forward to that one).
