Went back to playing Luck be a Landlord.
Right now 9 sols
A lot of Rocket League! Additionally I’ve been having a pretty good time with Star Trucker.
Then recently I’ve been streaming Helldivers 2 from my PC to my Deck while it’s connected to the living room TV, which has been fun.
I just got a deck last week and I’m loving it so far. Been playing Castle Crashers again (here’s hoping the new update comes out soon!) as well as Baldur’s Gate 3 with my wife, which runs incredibly well surprisingly.
In my first month with the Deck, I have mostly played:
- Death Stranding
- Red Faction: Guerrilla
- GRID (2008)
And the hilarious tech demo of course!
I’m really happy with how well Death Stranding works and really see myself finishing it now that I can play it on commute. Love that game but it never fit my schedule (at the desk, I always played flight sims in VR or just a very quick shooter session).
Red Faction and GRID are easy enough on the battery, especially at 40 fps, and not too fussy about controls so they feel good with a controller (I felt a bit handicapped in Dirt Rally 2 and Project Cars 2).
In terms of emulation, I installed RetroDeck and tried Gran Turismo PSP but found that hard with the large stick and no analog controls for accelerate/brake Just putting some PS1 and PS2 games on it now, let’s see if those will be able to bump GRID and Red Faction from my frequented list:
- Metal Gear Solid 1,2 and 3
- Gran Turismo 4
Jusant is next on the list after Kingdom Come: Deliverance.
Super Mario All Stars, just to spite Nintendo.
I’m replaying through the Metroid Prime Trilogy again, primehack is amazing.
I should pick that up again. I remember getting stuck somewhere in the first one.
Nine Sols!
Who would’ve guessed a hand drawn 2D side scroller runs amazingly at 90Hz. That sound of parrying attacks coming out of deck’s speaker is just so satisfying.
Hell yeah. Been hanging out for getting this one.
Dave the Diver!
Ghost of Tsushima and Kingdom Come: Deliverance. I finished the main story of both games yesterday but now I’ve got DLC to play.
Haven’t been playing it much recently, but I’ve gotten to a point in Pokemon Unbreakable Ties where I’m stubbornly bashing my head against a wall to win a battle, so that’s off the table for a while.
And the only other games I’ve actually played recently are Yooka-Laylee (only 2 levels in due to exploration and a lot of goofing around), Baba Is You, and Dungeons & Degenerate Gamblers. But I’ve only been playing a little bit since I’ve been busy enough.
Thinking about buying one to play Project Zomboid on. Has anyone here done that? Happy with the experience?
ttyd switch, echoes of wisdom.
I told my friend when I got my Deck I wouldn’t just use it as an emulation device…yeah I mostly use it for PCSX2
Been playing through Midnight Club 3 Remix the last week
Currently I’m playing through Ready Or Not, the engine update and them adding FSR3.0 made the game playable at the best of times! However the Deck still freezes and crashes occasionally sadly.
