I hope to play some more Baldur’s Gate III. I’ll probably stream it from my main computer since the fan noise is so loud otherwise. It’s been a while since tried to run it on the Steam Deck so there might have been some updates, gonna try it again! I’ll probably make some progress in Stardew Valley and Hades too, both wonderful games for the Deck!
A friend got me into Honkai Star Rail, so that’s been taking up most of my time.
Other than that, I’ve also been playing Black Mesa and Trolley Delayma which is a free little trolley problem game.
I’m still putting off Baldur’s Gate 3 hoping for FSR 2 to be added, but with silence from the devs on when/if that’s being added, I’ll probably go ahead and start playing it soon.
The new Forza Motorsport has a system where you have to drive a car for like 3 hours before you’re able to upgrade all of the parts on it. Regardless of how many credits you have.
So I’ve been using xCloud to “play” Forza with all of the driving assists on—accelerating, braking, shifting, all of it—just to level up cars to the point I unlock all of the upgrades to that car. (Offline, of course. Not gonna mess up someone else’s game because of Microsoft’s weird ideas on progression.)
So “AFK racing” has been running on my Deck more than any other game this week.
Just finished shadow of Mordor yesterday and it was fun, and worked perfect on the deck. Today I started Darkwood, seems to be working reasonably well so far, although the run versus walk controls are a little clunky, but overall no big issues just an hour in to it
Haven’t used my Deck in a while, but yesterday I played Overwatch on it. New gf plays on console, so she was on Switch and I was on Deck. I’m not good at controller Overwatch but after a few games I felt like I wasn’t a complete drag on our team at least.
I started playing it at the start of this week, and have been completely hooked into it.
What I find pleasantly surprising is that I gave the game a few chances over the years, but it just didn’t click. Perhaps as I was playing on a PS, and I find it very odd to play platformers and similar games on it.

been playing West of loathing and shadows over loathing lately. Fun and stupid, nice to be able to play them on deck

Played most of COCOON during a recent airplane round-trip. Also started Pocket Mirror, I got an RPG Maker fever after playing Corpse Party.

Deck is currently being borrowed by my dad to play Zero Dawn, but last I had it, I was using it for Final Fantasy VII Intergrade.
Trails into Reverie. Then onto Kuro No Kiseki.
Tomb raider 2013. Doing solo at 100%

Baldur’s Gate 3, mostly. But I’ve been playing Pathfinder Wrath of The Righteous when the others in the group I play with can’t play.
Oh, and some Cities Skylines II here and there. Works reasonably well with the controller, but it’s not perfect.
Replaying Spider-man and Miles Morales in preparation for SM2 on the PS5

Hollow Knight.

No Man’s Sky for few months now.
Also started Hellblade, its very easy to get stuck in that game it seems
I had to break myself away from No Man’s Sky after about 100 hours or so, felt like it would completely consume me.
Not as “bad” as rimworld, unlike nms that game requires attention all the time, and is even more addicting to me :D
literally got in the way of normal life and created temporary issues
