Fallout 4. Its the first game I thought of when the Deck was announced and hoped it would be playable. I haven't been disappointed after 8 hrs on my Deck.
I bought it a week ago and had buggy dialogue, soft locks, etc. in the house and at the gate to the vault. It was insanely broken. A fresh reinstall did nothing. Ended up refunding and buying Fallout 3, which has been fun so far. No clue why 4 was just busted for me.
Just finished replaying FFIX (moguri mod) and FF7 New Threat 2.0. Now I'm playing Cosmoteer and Dave the Diver
I picked up Ruined King and Midnight Suns at 50/60% off respectively. Haven't played MS yet, but ruined King is cool so far. I've never played league of legends so I know absolutely nothing about the characters, but the game play is solid. Similar to Battlechasers (same devs!) But a lot more refined and polished.
Been playing Death Stranding with Deck docked to TV and with a PS4 controller. Works like a charm.

Dying light. I bought it on sale years ago and couldn't really get into it. I think the combat just takes a while to get into. Plus, I don't think it's really meant for keyboard and mouse.
I love it on the deck. It runs great and looks amazing for an 8 yr old game.
GTA 5, world of tanks, simrail, NFS underground 2 and have dabbled with assetto corsa running on proton (little bit wack and doesnt run content manager yet)
Burnout paradise
Not sure if this is heresy here or not, but I just bought an ASUS ROG Ally. It’ll be here Wednesday and if you guys wanna recommend me some games, do!

Recently played Axiom Verge 1&2 and currently playing Hollow Knight.
American Truck Simulator. And I can't stop. I don't know why it's so enjoyable. I have a huge backlog of games to play, but instead I've got a load of Amonium Nitrate to haul to Barstow, CA.

Cassette beasts, daemon x machina, remnant from the ashes, caves of QUD, and various yuzu roms to see how they run (shockingly well).
I'm on an Ally, but similar stuff.
- Planet of Lana - It's Limbo but less depressing.
- Tinykin - A platformer with a dash of Pikmin. Like, a very small dash. Some reviews way overplay the Pikmin aspect. It's more of a collectathon platformer, and the Tinykin are more or less just abilities you need to collect in every level. There's no strategy and you're not at risk of losing them unnecessarily. There's enough to collect everything in every level. I loved the game, but it's not Pikmin.
- Pokemon Luminescent Platinum - It's a BDSP (specifically BD) mod that makes the games Platinum with some additional QoL stuff like a built in level cap so you don't get overpowered, additional moves and Pokemon, and just a ton of stuff. It's very good.
Persona 5 Royal
Diablo 4. I have actually played from 1-62 as a druid so far on Steam Deck and it's been a fantastic way to experience the game.
XCOM2 - trying to play anything to make the wait to Starfield bearable!
Edit: adding to this that it’s a HOG on the battery which blows my mind considering its not all that graphically impressive.
It's all the calculations xcom makes to ensure the move you made was the wrong move draining the battery 😁

Did you try manually setting the TDP? In Civ VI I set it to 7W (default graphics) and it has helped quite a bit.
I tried bringing frames down to 30 and messed a little with a custom game profile but I think I’ll have to drop graphics to medium or low for any real tangible difference. And that I’m just not willing to do! So it’s a couch outlet game for me at the moment. Fallout 4 uses less juice. Maybe it’s just poorly optimized?
Cassette beasts was a surprisingly fantastic pokemon clone. I'd take it over any pokemon game tbh.
Aside from that, my mainstays are:
- Dead Cells
- Hades
- Emulation
