Stardew Valley stays on the list. I have it installed, but haven't played it much on my deck (other than to test mods). I have met other people with Decks who mostly play SDV, and it is a classic.

Monster Hunter: World, played that. Played it with my eldest who also has a Steam Deck. Runs pretty well, but there's a lot of text for smaller screens (and aging eyes).

Now Vampire Survivors, that game is great for the Steam Deck. Short, defined games. The sleep mode has never failed, and if it did, you are only loosing a ½ hour run at most.

Does sleep mode on the Steam Deck fail?

[–] Grimpen@lemmy.ca 1 points 2 years ago

Rarely. It has failed once for V:S for me from my recollection, and that was months ago. With the frequent SteamOS updates, it is likely that whatever rate edge case that caused it to lock up on wake has been fixed.

Thinking about it, I can't remember sleep/wake failing in a month or two…

This is the best summary I could come up with:

Recently Valve revealed the top Steam Deck games overall for 2023, but they only just posted up what the most-played were just for December 2023 which we have now.

They're all Steam links too so you can click and dive right in if a particular game jumps out at you:

The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Special Edition

What have you been playing recently on either Steam Deck or desktop Linux?

I am currently going through the original Alan Wake (I have zero idea what's going on…), and after that I plan to finally do a proper Fallout 4 play-through.

I decided to actually start going through some of my own library to play through games collecting dust and the Steam Deck is just magic for that.
