Been playing some minecraft java editiom, since the 1.20 update just dropped.

Hades, Returnal, and Hi-Fi Rush at the moment.
I think Hades is exactly what the SD was made for.
Finished Witcher 3 main quest in Steam Deck (the font is so small on Deck)
Now got consumed by The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom
Blasphemous
Same, I was playing Death Stranding but I paused it because I'm hooked by Blasphemous.
Diablo 4! I just can’t put it down!
Into the breach. Such a simple yet perfectly thought out game, which you can easily sink a lot of hours into. It's also cheap.
I just bought it, and am absolutely loving the art style and gameplay. I'm excited to see how the mechanics get more complex as I progress. 1.5 hours in and I'm hooked!
Also, got the recommendation to buy it from the fediverse so that makes it even a bit more sweet!
Drakenguard 3 on rpcs3 I'm pretty impressed at how well it runs. I only had to change one audio setting to fix some crackling issues.
Also Pokemon infinite fusion when I'm looking for something more chill
What's drakenguard and what's pokemon infinite? lol I'm out of the loop
edit: I see drakenguard is a Nier predecessor game
Pokemon infinite is just a fanmade Pokemon game, it's got nothing to do with Nintendo and runs on PC natively. It looks and plays closer to Pokemon leaf green but with new mechanics and story
Magic Arena and a lot of WH40K Space Marine. The latter works pretty good and I noticed the servers are still online! Played some good old exterminate yesterday.
Also Zacharia Pinball in-between.
BotW currently (gotta finish that before TotK), with some breaks for SnowRunner. I need to get back into Elden Ring before I forget how to play!
Monster Hunter Rise, Underhero, and I just bought Halo MCC for my first ever Halo playthrough.
You're in for a treat. MCC is good fun
I’ve been playing through Horizon Zero Dawn! Cryotools really helped stabilize the frame rate and I’ve been enjoying the crap out of it. I’m level 40 right now with about 25 hours in.
I was playing Fire Emblem Engage (Lunatic/Classic difficulty), but then I started replaying Disco Elysium and got hooked on that one all over again. I was pleasantly surprised by how well it controls on the Deck -- great way to kill time on the train!
I've been interested in trying Disco Elysium, good to know that it runs well on the Deck! You mentioned playing on the train - is it a good game to play in short bursts?
You can definitely play it in bits if you're able to follow the game log. It keeps track of all the conversations and bits that you need to remember.
There's no action in the game, so there's nothing you can't just put down and pick up later, as long as you can remember what you were in the process of doing or where you were going.
I don't have time for longer SD sessions so I only play like once or twice a week now, but halfway through Persona 5 Strikers (with the audio bug on Proton, sadly) and I REALLY want to finish so I can get to NEO: The World Ends With You, ever since I beat the DS original. ...I end up procrastinating work with Youtube instead. Actually, for the past year or two, playing games feels like I'm being productive, comparative to scrolling online.
Horizon Zero Dawn. Almost through the main story.
I was having that crash almost every time i put the system to sleep. Are you not experiencing that?
Sometimes, but definitely not every time
Just got started on My Time at Sandrock after the cozy/family friendly games sales. It runs at a stable 30 FPS so far & I'm enjoying the game. Once SoS:aWL releases later this month, I'll be switching over though.
recently finished Demon’s Souls on ps3 emulator, it’s originally a 30fps game so it ran just fine on steam deck!
Been playing Deep Rock Galactic on the deck. Also finished up RimWorld recently, which actually worked pretty well on the deck.
I just started a Terraria play through to play with the mod "starlight river", it's still early but really impressive so far
What's that mod about? Maybe I should play it again
It adds a lot of stuff that isn't exactly Terraria styled, including boss fights with their own set arenas

Edit: it's still Alpha, expect bugs also AFAIK nothings post hardmode yet
Sweet ty!
Oxygen not included
You play ONI on the Steam Deck? Does it work well?
I've played that also and it honestly does super well.
I have been playing Alan Wake remastered
Trying to get through all the games in that universe before Alan Wake 2 releases.
Dicey Dungeons, Streets of Rogue, Enter The Gungeon (its default controls are kinda weird though); I played Cassette Beasts for about 10 hours but then I got bored.
+1 for Dicey Dungeons. Playing it on the Steam Deck might actually be the ideal format, too. I don't think I could have cleared the Witch campaign at all if I hadn't broken that up into dozens of micro-sessions.
One thing I will lament, however, is the Steam Deck's current poor support for Bluetooth headphones. Being forced to resync headphones constantly forces me to play on mute most of the time, but it's practically a crime against fun to play without the Dicey Dungeons soundtrack.
I keep dedicated wired headphones for my Nintendo Switch and Steamdeck. As usual bluetooth ones for phones and tablets.
If you get a pair of bt headphones exclusively for the deck, they seem to stay paired in my experience.
As in, the headphones are only paired to the deck and nothing else.
But yeah, wired is still easier in 2023 :(
new vegas, and a truly dope hockey roguelike (yes, you read that right) called tape to tape
Taking a break from hunting achievements in Hollow Knight and starting to get into Horizon Zero Dawn which I bought last Steam sale. The battery sure seemed to last a lot longer while playing Hollow Knight...
Diablo 4, Cassette Beasts, Skull, Boneraiser Minions, Skull, Blasphemous, WoW Classic Hardcore.
Most of it on the steam deck. ClassicHC on desktop because of the stakes.
No Man's Sky is my first deck game. Haven't had enough time to get too far, found it tough to slip away long enough to play for decent chunks of time.
Car Mechanic Simulator 2021, and No Man's Sky.
How is Car Mechanic on the Deck?
Works pretty smooth in my opinion. About the only noticeable change I see from desktop is it automatically moves to the next bolt when mounting or unmounting a part. Repairing parts and salvaging scrap is just slightly more difficult in my opinion, but that could just be a 'me' issue coming from keyboard/mouse and not use to controllers.
I'm currently playing Pokemon Renegade Platinum on Retrodeck.
I got Humble Choice, so I'll try Ghostwire and Grime.
Ghostwire is unplayably low fps sadly, even at the lowest settings
