I didn’t see it recommended here yet, but my suggestion is Dead Cells. It’s a 2D game not made by FromSoft but it has a very similar feel.

People who don’t care are allowed to comment, that’s it.

I heard cassette beasts is providing some direct competition but it wasn’t nearly as successful.

While I get your point, Linux has improved to almost 4% this year. In addition, all these people using Steam decks are on Linux, they just might not even know it. I think that’s a great thing, but Windows isn’t going anywhere. Office suite runs too many businesses and makes Microsoft too much money.

I’m playing Risk of Rain Returns and having a great time with it. I’d love to see how it feels on a Steam Deck, since it seems like a perfect game for that. Still haven’t had a successful run solo but the journey is what matters.

Sometimes fitting in Super Mario Wonder when I’m feeling whimsical. It’s really fresh and the one off mechanics that pop up are really entertaining.

I’m also getting into Slay the Spire for my lunch break game every now and then. Boy howdy is this a great game. My current run was a near bust as I discarded a core card of my deck by accident. I suspect I would have been better off, but I’m still trudging through haha.

Taking some lighter games at the moment but very much looking forward to picking up Metro Last Light and V Rising as my winter games this year. Hoping they’ll be good ones since my gaming sessions will be decimated next year when my daughter is born!

You can test controller support on your PC and see how you like it. It’s pretty good in my opinion!

The Metro series is incredible for this. You have to press a button to check how many bullets are left, or how much oxygen is in your current canister. All kinds of awesome stuff in a bleak, rich world.
