I probably contribute like half the hours Fallout 4 is getting, once you go through the pain of getting modding working how you want, it's so easy to sink another hundred or so hours into it.

Lil Steamie Decky is hauling ass with 200 plugins just fine (assuming you don't mind cranking everything to low settings, but you won't notice it much on that display)

I'm impressed that Cyberpunk is in the top 10 considering how much flack that game caught.

People spent 8 years molding their personality around that game. Even when it tried to kill people it couldn't kill the hype.

I've been toying with the idea of getting one of these but I like strategy games like HOI4, factorio, rimworld. Anyone have any experience with them on the Deck?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

They all work great! Favtorio is the hardest one to wrap your head around but controller support is very good if you want it.

I even play a ton of Dwarf Fortress on it all the time with zero control issues.

I played a ton of EU4 and it did just fine, didn't hit 60fps but really don't need that kind of performance on a map game. back buttons for hotkeys/zooming in/out. Left trackpad set up as a touch to swap between different map types. Can always dock to a monitor with mouse/keyboard or just pair a bluetooth mouse. :)
