This may overlap a lot with the discussion on what people are buying during the Steam sale discussion, but here it is anyways.

        yeah, I’m in the last 1/3 of the game and it’s been really good. Getting used to the medieval script in dialogue bubbles took some time, but it’s definitely worth it.

    I spend hours setting up mods for games I’ve never played before so I can play the “best” version of it just to either get it working and play for a hell of a lot less time than I spent setting it up or giving up and going back to one of my comfort games.

    I bought Against the Storm a few weeks ago and that has taken most of my gaming time. Just bought Hogwarts Legacy from the sale, I’ll probably fire that up sometime soon.

      How do you deal with the janky text? I found it hard to learn the game with it all so aliased.

        For which game? I haven’t played Hogwarts yet but I just scaled up the UI for Against the Storm and have no issues reading the text.

          Ah, interesting - I meant against the storm, but I don’t think I’ve scaled the text! That might be my issue. Thank you!

    Nearly done with Metaphor ReFantizio, and also playing some Astalibra and FEAR.

    I recently found out that FEAR won’t run well on modern windows PCs, and installed it on my Deck to see if it ran better on linux. Turns out it runs fantastically, with the Deck able to outperform any windows machine. I intended to only test performance, but FEAR is one of my favorite shooters of all time and I quickly got suckered back in. So I guess I’m going to do a full playthrough now.

    Mad Max, snatched it for 2 bucks during the sale. Pretty good and chill game and well worth its price.

      Whoa. It runs on deck? I just finished it on desktop. Completionist wise it was such a burden and I wish it didn’t have any achievements. Hopefully your sand trip is awesome!

    I’m still mostly playing doom 2016.

    I had a twenty year break from gaming and I’ve been trying to catch up since I got the steam deck but I remain pretty crap. I’m playing doom on little bitch mode and still finding it a challenge. I’m about half way through, I don’t get a lot of gaming time.

    I keep starting other games but not getting into them. But I think I’m gonna give dishonoured a try too.

    Steam deck is probably the best machine I’ve bought in years.

    Warzone 2100. You gotta dl it through the steamos explorer, but its fantastic on the handheld once you configure the controls
