Started Night in the Woods tonight. I’m a patient gamer. I enjoy the graphics, but 30 minutes is not enough for me to make to my mind about it.

Bouncing between Cyberpunk 2077 and Helldivers 2

Mostly Silksong. When I get tired of getting my ass handed to me, Ballionaire or Sackboy.

Finished Saints Row 2 last week (played 3 and 4 on the Switch a year ago) and now picked up Saints Row 2022. And despite it showing up as “Unsupported” on the store page, it runs great on Steam Deck.

I’m bouncing between several games right now:

• Trails in the Sky First Chapter - the trails series is one I’ve always wanted to get into, so the recent remake of the first game seemed like a great place to start. Runs great on deck. Unfortunately they’re trying a new publisher (Gung-ho) for this version of the game, and they didn’t discount the game for regional pricing making it too expensive for many countries. Russia was one of the only countries with typical regional pricing, but after people pointed that out, Gung-ho decided to remove it from same in Russia rather than adjust pricing elsewhere. It’s a great game from a great developer, and it feels like some controversy over the publisher’s handling of the game is greatly hurting how it performs. It has a pretty lengthy (~10 hours) demo to try, if you’re interested.

• Sonic Racing Crossworlds - MKW was kinda disappointing (and also not on the Deck). Crosswords has been really fun actually and is scratching that itch. Runs really well on the deck, the only negative is it requires Internet when first launched (after that initial check you can go offline and still play single player or split screen multiplayer though).

• Cloverpit - this is from the same devs as Yellow Taxi Goes Vroom, which is why I picked it up. It’s basically slot machine Balatro, with a horror theme (you’re locked in a room, have to earn money through gambling to make deadline amounts, miss the deadline and the floor opens dropping you to your death). Apparently the launch has been very successful (300k copies sold in 3 days), with a lot of YouTubers covering it.

I’ve been diving into Sundered & it is fantastic. I really like the vibe of the game.

Hades 2, finally out of early access and enjoying the storyline and the new polish

Finally got into Tunic, even though I have had it for a while. Also playing Strange Horticulture, Diablo II Resurrected, Diablo IV, Balatro(can’t get away from that joker!!!), Loop Hero, and some switch emulation.

Hi-Fi Rush. It runs great.

Lords of the Fallen at the moment. It is nice :)

I had been playing BG3, but the latest updates have made it go to crap on my deck, so no more. Right now I am playing Core Keeper, Balatro, Loop Hero, and some emulations.
