    Oh darn. Since I have a Steam Deck I’ve been wishlisting games like a mad man. It’s going to hard to not buy new games. One of the reasons I got a Deck is that I want to clear out by backlog.

    Gonna be a though sale for my wallet. In the coming week I’m hospitalized 😂 so I need a few games to burn.

      Won’t be on sale, but if you like city builders or similar stuff, try Factorio! It looks a bit weird and anachronistic at first but BOY is that ever an addictive game!

      I already spent over 50 hours in it since I bought it several weeks ago. For comparison: I have about 200 hours in Cities: Skylines, one of my absolute favourite games ever!

    I’m hoping some of the Zacktronics games go on sale. I wasn’t able to play any of these before I got my deck last year and I’ve got some catching up to do.

      I love these games, but be careful - playing shenzenio on deck sounds awful because it has a lot of typing. Exopunk too. Infinifsctory and spacechem would be good though.

    I’ll be honest, I own so many games from the last sale that I’m probably going to sit this one out. I have something like 140 games, and of those the majority are on my backlog, so I won’t be running out any time soon.

    Hoping for a sale on Tunic. I picked it up on my Switch but honestly have been far happier with Deck performance of games I have on both platforms that I’d rather go through it on the Deck

        I was also shocked how much worse dead cells performed on the switch, kinda made me decide to stick with pc/deck for non exclusives now

          Interestingly I first played Dead Cells on switch and it seemed to run well, but that was a few years back at this point. Did an update tank performance or something?

            I noticed lots more “stutters” at random times than I ever saw on PC / Steam Deck. I moved it to onboard storage and that helped some but still played better on the Deck

            The opposite I’d say, there were some performance issues on release which were fixed a few weeks later.

        That’s honestly pretty impressive considering how minimalist the art style is. I played in on Steam Deck and it played flawlessly. Highly recommended.

    I don’t even know yet. I finally just got my Deck (showed up at my door yesterday) so it’s all a whole new world for me at the moment lol.

    Will happily take recommendations from people that have them to give, though!

      I enjoyed Brotato on the deck, it’s a very good pick up and play title that works well with the deck. Vampire survivor is also good, but it has performance issues on the deck by the late game.

      Final Fantasy X worked great on deck, so if it’s on sale and you like JRPGs I’d recommend it

        Cool, thank you! I’ve heard good things about Brotato and am definitely planning to check out both that and Vampire Survivors on Deck.

        FFX is one I wouldn’t have thought about - might be worth a try!

    Hopefully nothing I want goes on sale. I have to cut back on my spending.

    Although, I have $30 set aside for games every month, so you never know.

        It has been awhile since I last played it but I rememeber it ran really well on the deck.

        I think it’s great. Not quite as smooth or detailed as the copy I have on the PS5, but of course it’s not. Considering it’s running on a handheld and still looking very good when using video out with a larger screen, it’s worth getting.

    Probably can’t expect much of a sale since it’s still in early access, but Shadows of Doubt has captured my attention like few other games and I’m really looking for an excuse to pick it up.

      There’s nothing else like it, even in its current early access state. Can’t wait to see where they go with it.
