Previously Enjoyed Games:

Portal 2, Half-Life 2, Baldur's Gate 3, Slay the Spire, Disco Elysium.

Preferred Genres:

I enjoy story-driven games, immersive sims, RPGs, strategy, roguelikes, and puzzle games.

Narrative-heavy games with great worldbuilding are my jam.

Budget:

No strict budget, but I appreciate games with a lot of replayability or good deals.

Other Notes:

I'm new to the Steam Deck (it was a surprise gift from my wife), and I'm looking for games that work well in handheld mode.

Performance-wise, I’m currently playing Baldur's Gate 3 on low settings (everything around 40-50 FPS) and Portal 2 on medium-high settings (around 60 FPS) with SteamOS’s default settings. I’d love to find more games that have similar performance or games that look amazing while being efficient on the Deck’s battery.

Would love suggestions for:

  • Games with great performance at 30-60 FPS on medium settings.
  • Indie games or hidden gems that run well on Steam Deck without draining the battery.

Thanks in advance! I’m excited to dive deeper into the Deck experience. Looking forward to your recommendations!

How are you?

Do any of you use the Steam deck as a PC in addition to gaming on it? I'm wondering if we can use it as a PC in everyday life, to work, study, watch movies and series, etc. Does anyone have experience with this that they can share?

I see a lot of people worried about battery health, performance, thinking any small thing needs RMA...

Just play it. Turn off performance overlay, stop looking the battery health indicator and trying to find problems. If something is wrong with your deck, you WILL notice. It's good to take care of your system, but don't obsess over it.

i know this seems like another post of “what should i play” well… it is. but i’m looking for a hyper specific game.

previously enjoyed games: terraria escape from tarkov old schools runescape rust project zomboid monster hunter: world

preferred genres: survival base building character progression

budget: if its worth the price i’ll pay.

other notes:

project zomboid has the best atmosphere, i just am not interested at the moment for it. but love everything about it.

i like the base building and adventure in terraria but don’t like it on the deck.

i like the loot sorting of escape from tarkov with the hideout and flea market as well.

i don’t like hand holding and to figure out things.

i like the concept of rim world but just can’t get into it.

i love grinding. im a big old school runescape guy but not really looking for that on the deck either. but i really enjoy the loot drops achievements and being able to get new armor or finally boss.

any odd recommendations given these details? i’m also trying to stray away from arpgs like diablo, poe, grim dawn.

help meeee

Previously Enjoyed Games: FF 1-10, Sea of Stars, Chrono Trigger, Breath of Fire

Preferred Genres: Fantasy, Medieval Fantasy, Strategy

Budget: No constraints

Other Notes: Looking for modern graphics, not retro. Solid depth. Interesting gearing and build outs. Considering Baldur's Gate 3 but not sure I want to go down the DND path. The more depth the better. No anime. High fantasy is better. Steampunk could be ok. Trying to avoid action stuff and too much twitch gameplay. Kinda just wanna chill, have baseball on my TV, and ignore it because I am engrossed in strategy or a killer story.

Original Title: I'm a solo indie dev and I'm making a game, and I want it to be playable on Steam Deck. I want to know requirements other Steam Deck owners want to see when playing a game on it. (eg. minimum FPS requirement)
