Especially since one of the best features is basically unmentioned. Turn on your steam deck and before you sign in for the first time, you can boot straight to the desktop. Just wish there was a toggle in Plasma to boot to desktop by default.
For all intents and purposes, you don’t need to log into steam to play games on the steam deck which is honestly shocking where most new hardware basically requires you to agree to sign in to begin using your device.
Looking at you Windows 11
Another bonus: Many very good open source games can be added to SteamDeck by:
Some suggestions: Luanti, Empty Epsilon, Free Civ, Tux Racer, most retro emulators.
I might be slightly biased, but I can also recommend OpenMW for Deck.
Cataclysm: Dark Days Ahead
Hotkey the apocalypse game would be interesting on a steam deck. I wonder if anyone has attempted to map keys to the steam deck.
Heh. CDDA is pretty intense, but I’m a huge fan of how it handles inventory.
The inventory system is great, I tend to find myself going too deep into organizing my stuff, it’s an enjoyable system.
Yeah… There are a lot of things I really like about the game, but every time I’ve tried playing, I get outside the initial starting point (after filling my pockets with frozen meat and shit lol), it gets kind of meh imo… I do like how you can use a smart phone (or flip phone) and it can even act as a flashlight
I have heard good things about some of the mods/variations
I was hugely impressed by how well Caves of Qud handles controller support. Definitely worth a look if you’re interested in how these types of games can maintain access to do many different functions.
Add anything with sonic in the name. Like SRB2:Persona.
