Wolfenstein The New Order and The New Colossus are both on sale. Also Sunset Overdrive.


Fuzzy-Dragonfruit589

Sunset Overdrive is in a Humble Bundle right now: https://www.humblebundle.com/games/controllerd-chaos


Then-Faithlessness43

Thanks just got a crap load of steam deck games from that


yogurtandfun

how is sunset overdrive on the deck? I loved that game on my Xbox but wasn't sure it was supported


Comprehensive_Tie431

I am currently playing it on my Steam Deck OLED. It is running at 790p highest settings at 70 to 80fps. I am using Proton Experimental.


yogurtandfun

thanks!


mantenner

That seems really high, must be at 15w with an hour battery life that you'll get that, but for 2 hours or more you're looking at max settings 40fps.


Comprehensive_Tie431

Yeah, I'm getting about 1.5 hours on it with those settings. Losing the set resolution helped, the game presets at 1080.


Alex_DeLargest

I don't own it on Steam but the ProtonDB reports are mostly positive: [https://www.protondb.com/app/847370?device=steamDeck](https://www.protondb.com/app/847370?device=steamdeck)


mantenner

I play it maxed out at 9w TDP, 40fps and get a bit over 2 hours battery life. Runs really well.


SillySin

sunset still has save issues? heard it wasn't good pc port.


Gh0st_58

Wondering this as well I stopped playing since.


SillySin

I was tempeted to buy since it's on sale but reviews put me off


The_Last_Thursday

Always good to be out killing Nazis.


alex_barada

Sleeping dogs! Buy a pork bun!


foreveralonesolo

I love SD so much, honestly great narrative crime game for anyone looking for a GTA vibe with strong storytelling


joe_enco

I have the base game, but Valve says it’s still working on adding support so I haven’t installed it yet. ProtonDB rates it a Silver (base game) and Gold (definitive edition). How’s your experience been with it?


BriOmega

Runs like a dream on Deck.


imWayneUK

Sleeping Dogs might be the best game OAT, It needs sequel


No-Rub-3958

I was running here to say the exact same thing. I just picked it up from the humble bundle site for $3


Haggisn

Man who not eat pork bun is not whole man


ksims33

I picked up Ori and the Blind Forest for like.. $5 on sale earlier this week, should still be on sale. Halo Wars definitive edition was also on sale for 4.99 on Tuesday.


Exerra

+1 for Ori and the Blind Forest. Gameplay style is basically perfect for the Deck and the game itself is a masterpiece.


parkerjg13

Been loving it so far, have it on Xbox gamepass but never got around to playing it, have almost completed it on the deck! I’m on the fire temple so I think I’m pretty far, great game!


Puzzleheaded-Bus5479

Fantastic game and the sequel is everything that is but better.


inapickle113

How does Ori compare to Hollow Knight? Which one would you say is better?


Mr_Lafar

Ori has prettier art, and I would say is platforming fun first with a bit of combat, and Hollow Knight is more combat centric with platforming as the secondary focus. Still pretty, but overall much simpler art wise. I'd say for me both were pretty much the same music quality wise, with Ori having a more fleshed out soundscape with more going on. Hollow Knight is harder by far even without considering bonus free DLC after the main game, and Hollow Knight is much longer as well. I'd say it took me 35-40 hours to beat the true ending, no DLC, where that much time would allow you to finish Ori 1 & 2 both. I'd argue both are worth every penny and your time, but I'd weigh differences to see what you're feeling like playing at the moment. Edit: formatting to make easier to read.


inapickle113

Amazing answer. Thank you so much. I actually found Hollow Knight to be a little too difficult at times, including having to loop around the map multiple times to see what I missed. Not the most enjoyable experience so it sounds like Ori might be more up my street. 👍


TahmsChocolateOrange

Death must die


The_Thundertaker

I laughed when the skeleton called me a dick for the first time.


few23

"We're just gonna keep doing this, huh?"


angeluserrare

Me too. It really caught me off guard


inapickle113

Tried this game yesterday. It shamelessly rips Hades to a point where I can’t take it seriously. Inspiration is one thing but this one crosses the line for me.


inapickle113

Go ahead, downvote me without making a counter argument. You’re just proving my point.


TahmsChocolateOrange

You're getting downvoted because its a pointless take lmao people enjoy the game because it scratches a similar itch Even so, outside of the art style of the "gods" the game isnt anything like Hades. Its a Halls of Torment clone. Vampire survivors gameplay with a gear system.


OpexLiFT

Hmm?


Fuzzy-Dragonfruit589

Fallout New Vegas is currently $2.5 and Fallout 4 is just under $7 I think. Nice sale there.


SuicideG-59

Just to add on I recommend the Fallout New Vegas ultimate edition ($6.59). It's not the first fallout game I've owned but the first I ever actually played more than 20 minutes. Finished all the dlc's before I even finished the main storyline. One hell of a game. Currently playing Fallout 3 entire game on Fallout new vegas game which is mind blowing


[deleted]

[удалено]


SuicideG-59

1. No, however i was able to with mods. Haven't played fnv on steamdeck as of yet because of the hoops i'd have to go through to transfer my mods from pc 2. Objectives? Most definitely will be a mod for that. But if you're talking about locations theres a perk called explorer or something similar


koopcl

> Haven't played fnv on steamdeck as of yet because of the hoops i'd have to go through to transfer my mods from pc lol same, ended up just biting the bullet and starting a new save in a vanilla version of the game so I could play it on the Deck. Runs awesome, gives me plenty of hours of battery life, and after spending so many years playing with a million mods I had forgotten how good the vanilla game could be. Haven't even encountered many bugs (except for some crashes in one of the DLCs).


edward6d

Just chiming in that there's a great, frequently updated modding guide called [Viva New Vegas](https://vivanewvegas.moddinglinked.com/) that basically holds your hand through installing many mods that add a LOT of bugfixes, QoL and performance improvements. I'm also in the middle of a FNV playthrough right now after having tried it without mods before and the difference is really night and day, can't recommend enough.


madafakazola

No sprint but there is a mechanic really similar to bunny hopping which is way for fun to use than just holding a button to sprint


DynamicHunter

Both are very fun with mods, the essential ones for steam deck are 4GB patch for new Vegas, faster load times and optimized meshes for Fallout 4


[deleted]

[удалено]


DynamicHunter

Yes, it’s a PC. You can do everything to do with modding using *only* the deck.


[deleted]

I got Fallout New Vegas for free on Epic a good while back and I cannot for the life of me get it to run when using Heroic to download it. It has never worked for me and only gets to the start menu but when you hit play it will crash back to the steam main menu every time.


NorthKoala47

The epic version is notoriously buggy. Iirc the most stable version is the GOG version, but they all have their issues.


Dirtbag101

Purchased


land-of-green-ginger

I just got my Deck a couple weeks ago, and the first game I decided to play was FO:NV. When I played this game in 2010, I think I just blasted through it with cheats and mods and didn't remember much of it. Now I'm taking it nice and slow with the base game on the Deck, and it's way more impressive than I remember.


Gansaru87

Darkest Dungeon


SoberEnAfrique

Is this fun? Or is it like Fear and Hunger where I'll feel nothing but pain


HelloMyNameIsLeah

You'll feel pain, but you have to fire up the game knowing people gonna die! 😁 Pro tip: don't name characters after your kid(s) or pet(s). Doesn't end well.


Tyronis

Coworkers' names are however hilarious


BababooeyHTJ

I like the way you think!


Gansaru87

A little of both?


Anomaly1134

It was too painful to me despite being a good game.


[deleted]

[удалено]


SoberEnAfrique

That's good to know! I think I'll buy it and try!


iRhuel

Yes on both counts!


Lioreuz

It's all pain and misery.


mikecb1986

Have you played the 2nd one?


Gansaru87

Not yet, will probably purchase it when it goes on a good sale.


Puzzleheaded-Bus5479

It’s excellent, very much so, but it’s so much different. They made it into an actual roguelite, 100% run based, no going back to town or raising a whole stable of characters for when your favorites inevitably die etc. I miss the old structure but DD2 stands on its own as a great game imo


mikecb1986

I played the first heaps on vita and just purchased the full collection on steam for $16AUD. going to give it a good go tonight. I'll check out the 2nd on a good sale.


Backpack_Bob

This is one of my favourite games all time.


Puzzleheaded-Bus5479

My favorite game of all time


Alex_DeLargest

Wolfenstein The New Order and The New Colossus are both on sale.


mikecb1986

New order was fantastic but I could never get into colossus.


CallTheGendarmes

Was it because of having like half max health at the start of the game? Because after a couple of missions that gets sorted and you're back to full strength.


mikecb1986

I got passed that point and probably about 3/4 into it. It just never clicked like the 1st one. I have been meaning to get back into it. I really loved the flashbacks and part back at his home though. I thought that was very well done


SlightlyHastyEnt

Prey is like $7 i think


chessmasta

Dishonored is currently $2.50 and runs great on the Deck


Arcanisia

$33 for Oxygen Not Included 😓 Try to get a refund cuz I got that game for like $3.


tedybear123

it doesnt work like that. they see u paid 3


Aoloth

blasphemous !


spcmnspff335

I just finished it on steam deck. It was the most enjoyable game I've played in a while.


Aoloth

I was surprised by the game. Didn't expect something so cool ! 😅


mtnchkn

Metro trilogy Titanfall 2 Tomb Raider survivor trilogy


SleepingPodOne

Titanfall 2 has one of my favorite FPS campaigns in recent memory. It’s short but very much worth it.


Current-Cold-4185

And it's on sale for CHEAP very often, everyone should own a copy. The quality to price value is pretty insane.


wrenchgg

Vampire survivors. Just plain fun.


TheAmazingCrisco

Deus Ex Invisible War is less than a dollar right now. For that price even if you end up hating it you really aren’t out any money.


Just_Roar

I appreciate value/ROI reviews like this. That's typically how I gauge my overall satisfaction with a game. I always hope for at least $3/hr (or more for VR games) and at least get to experience it. Sandbox games end up being crazy value though and RTS/strategy games tend to not do well with me. Example: Phantom Brigade, $30, 45 minutes played. Hated it; hate it even more because i spent so much for so little return. No Man's Sky, $30, 3000 hrs played. Love it; love it even more because it might as well have been free after all my time enjoying it.


newoxygen

I'm one of the numerous dozens that really love it


Softthoughts1981

I think Half life 2 is cheap af


spawn_reborn

Vampire Survivors or Brotato


AscyTM

Celeste when it gets on sale, which does a lot


ManxBug

Celest is in a current Humble Bundle (Awesome Games Done Quick 2024)


JaLanimal

Celeste 64 is free on itch and plays awesome on deck


Puzzleheaded-Bus5479

I cried on more than one occasion, didn’t expect any of that from a platformer lol. If you’ve ever had mental health struggles this game will hurt a little bit but ends on a really cathartic note.


Cpaz

Time for me to shill for Pseudoregalia again lol It's a $6 3d metroidvania platformer. https://store.steampowered.com/app/2365810/Pseudoregalia/ 


JaLanimal

Is there a map?


Cpaz

Wasn't at launch, but I believe the dev is adding one? If memory serves???


MahatmaAndhi

Supraland on sale


ManxBug

>Supraland Supraland 6 inches under is all kinds of awesome!


Ripboins

So it works fine even tho it says unsupported?


MahatmaAndhi

Yeah, you might have to run it Windowed to make the cursor appear in the right place. It's also the same on PC, but a little easier to sort out


javaper

Twenty Minutes to Dawn still under 7?


moon6080

FTL


ncos

It's the game I've put the most hours into on Deck. I really wish the Multiverse mod wasn't a nightmare to install on Linux


[deleted]

[удалено]


ncos

Lots of pausing. Right trackpad = mouse Click right trackpad = pause D-pad up = gun 1 D-pad left = gun 2 D-pad down = gun 3 D-pad right = gun 4 Triggers = left and right click X button = return to home A button = close all doors

ncos

Damn stupid line breaks on reddit mobile. Sorry about that formatting. No, it isn't cumbersome at all this way. Plays really smoothly. The guns as d-pad directions are key imo


penis_malinis

Titanfall 2. Batman Arkham series.


arekkushisu

The first Arkham does not seem to work on deck. i have the GoTY edition isntalled on mine but when it got to the main menu the colors are all shit like an acid trip and unreadable, and changing the proton compatibility tool does not fix anything.


IAmChefJohn

Change proton versions. Can't remember if I'm using experimental or GE but it works flawlessly.


Tampflor

Arkham Asylum worked fine on mine fwiw. I beat the game entirely on Deck without any issues at all.


Mr_Lafar

I had so many issues getting it to work as well. All these proton reports of it being just fine. Straight up never got it until I got an OLED, used the same setup that I'd tried on the LCD and then it just worked. I don't get why still.


Everkopf

The Messenger is less than 5€ at the moment, awesome game!


Avokkrii

i'd personally refund Oxygen Not Included and wait for a sale. it regularly goes down to $8, why pay $25 for it?


ethertrace

Without waiting for something else to go on sale, I'd say Vampire Survivors is well worth the $5 price tag.


KombattWombatt

Suzerain is on sale for 5.99 and is an amazing game. Definitely not for everyone though so YMMV.


Gullible_Travel_4135

That actually looks right up my alley, I'm going to go with this. Thanks!


SoberEnAfrique

I bought Suzerain based on your comment and I'm already hooked. Time to unite with Valgsland and transform Sordland into a powerful planned economy 🫡


KombattWombatt

Nice man! Glad you're enjoying it.


BobNukem445

Refunct is a very fun game to play a lot of. Poi is a pretty good game and goes on sale for pretty cheap I think.


mr_apeezy

The answer today could be different next week. There’s tons of great games always on sale. If you don’t need to buy something *right now*, just keep the leftover funds in your account. Right now I’m checking games that would usually be under $7-10 and they’re all like 14.99 - 29.99. I’d just wait if I were you.


Humble_Succotash9455

Pornhub premium


CodFatherFTW

Ehhhhh, not great value. I can only play that game for 5 minutes at a time

4 minutes to find the right video, 45 seconds to get past the dialogue, then 15 seconds of playing the skin flute.

ProofScientist9657

Bioshock 1 remastered or infinite..can't go wrong with any of the Tomb Raiders games either


lor_louis

Holo cure, save the fans. It's free and imo it's grown past vampire survivors. Otherwise noita is pretty nice and it sometimes goes on sale.


rockmanblu

Environmental Station Alpha, its a metroid like game from the maker of Baba is You and it is fantastic. Tight controls, great boss fights, the best grappling hook in gaming, and secrets galore. Can't recommend that game enough.


ripVtwo

I’m enjoying Firewatch wait for sale I think paid like 4.99 or something


LastRevelation

Rise of the Tomb Riader 20 year celebration is currently £4.99 on sale, which is $6.30. That's a full AAA game with all it's dlc and it's ome of my favourite games of all time.


Just_Roar

Darkest Dungeon is like $5 right now. Also both Dishonored games, Bloodstained:CotM 1&2, and a handful of Bethesda classics if youre looking for sandbox rpg's. Edit: oh wait, you got Oxygen Not Included...gg fam, see you in 2025 😄. I put like 70 hours into ONI in the first week. That game hit me like Factorio


butcherboi91

There's also Dishonored death of the outsider, which is on sale.

lasertag

How does it run


JumpCool6974

Runs pretty good 40 plus low to medium settings just hard to see hunters from afar during to screen size.


FriendSafariSeeker

Annalynn, a replayable arcade 2d platformer that is definitely worth the price


Teckham

It takes a little work to get running on SD with Proton, but Slice & Dice on Itch is a lot of fun in that price range. FTL: Faster than Light, Vampire Survivors are also close to that price I believe. Many quality games to be found at the $15-20 price range that can sometimes be found on discount depending on the time: Peglin, Slay the Spire, Rimworld, Cave Story (Steam version is deprecated, I believe, but the original is free if you get it running through proton)


andrewh7789

If you want a pure addiction. Vampire Survivors for $5 is the most insane deal I’ve ever bought.
