My favorite was the first Talos Principle, TP2 is also great, but the suspense in the story of 1 was so much I found it hard to put the game down (My Steam year in review shows I played it for 37 days straight). The puzzles in TP1 were also harder (TP2 had hard optional puzzles but the story was so long that I lost all will to do even 1 more puzzle by the game end, plus there's no fast travel to those optional puzzles)
I didn't like Titanfall 2 on the Steam Deck, the game is fine, but FPS games just dont work for me with joysticks.
I'd recommend flickstick +gyro for fps games, there's a definite learning curve but it's the only way I've found that is at all comparable to playing with a mouse.
Have been experimenting with this using the steam controller, but the learning curve is really high. Haven't been close to dock+keyb+mouse level of dexterity.
It's fun though. Really hope it works out in the end.
I’m surprised to hear you didn’t like TF2. If you’ve never played FPS on sticks I guess that makes sense, but TF2 has the best-feeling sensitivity curve of any game I’ve ever played on the sticks
