Stray

Binding of Isaac Rebirth

Disco Elysium

Dark Souls Remastered (don't think it was even on sale, but I have never played a souls game and was told this was a good place to start)

Basically a bunch of big hits that I never got around to. I'm starting with Stray, it's relaxing and fun. I played a little Dark Souls, but I need to come back to that when I have more time to focus.

I was also looking at Death must Die. I played the shit out of Vampire Survivors, and I've heard DMD is more of the same.

Last big StamDeck game for me was Hades 2. Loved the original and 2 was just as fun. I know it's not fully complete, but I unlocked everything available and upgraded most of the gear all the way. I can't wait for the full release.

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.

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.

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.

Backpack Battles. It's an inventory management based auto-battler. Chill game and I like spatial puzzle a lot.
The game uses the Godot engine and it runs great on the deck. The UI is very smooth and thoughtfully designed.
A neat thing about the battle system is that it's fully asynchronous. No matchmaking delay and it even works offline. I believe it works by preloading a number of opponent-builds at the beginning of the run.

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.

Balatro and Balatro. It's so good

Psychonauts 2. Was a huge fan of the original on PS2 and I can't believe it's taken me years to try the sequel. The animation, level design, and writing are all at the level of quality and creativity that I wanted to see videogames progress to some day when I was a kid. This is a playable DreamWorks film.

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.

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.

Fallout 76. Got hooked after watching the show and went through the previous 3d games back to back. Also bought Undertale but haven't fully committed to that one yet.

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.

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.

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.

Yellow Taxi Goes Vroom

I can't be the only one who bought Animal Well

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 bought The Falconeer yesterday, haven't played it yet, I'm looking at my wishlist and considering more options

So far just Juno: New Origins

I've been mostly playing:

• Noita
• Deep Rock Galactic
• Oxygen Not Included

Will pick up Juno when I get a chance to play when I'm not dead tired.

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).

I bought Balatro, Neon White, GRIS, Rollerdrome, and Pentiment. They're all under $15 CAD and I've sunk a few hours into Balatro already

King Hearts Final Mix (the entire collection)
It Takes Two
V Rising

I bought two games:

• The farmer was replaced - a simple Idle game, where you need to use a Python like code to automate a farming drone with farming hat that is doing the farming for you and the complexity of the tasks is increasing progressively. This game is in early access and has no discount but the price is 7€, so hardly breaking the bank.
• European Truck Simulator 2 - because it was just 2€ and it looks chill, even though I am not much into car racing games.

I'm finally playing Elex on my steam deck (started like three times on my stationary PC, but never came close to finish). So I bought Elex 2.
