Need for Speed: Heat is a beautiful game with a great gameplay loop, but due to the Internet limits of Origin and the game itself, there are some pretty big compromises to make.
While the stuttering and ghosting can be a bit of a boon on Steam Deck, Kena: Bridge of Spirits was still very playable and I could easily see myself playing solely on the device.
If you are a fan of platformers, wonderful stories, or just enjoy good games, do not wait up on Celeste!
Hyper Demon is a trip that will be very hard to wake up from, especially when I can play it in bed with my Steam Deck.
Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice feels right at home on the Steam Deck and it is amazing how well it can run!
The pieces of an enjoyable experience are all here, but unfortunately, Soulstice save itself on the Deck just yet.
The Outbound Ghost is a wonderful game , but it has too many small issues that compound into a less than stellar experience on the Steam Deck.
Like a stark contrast to its predecessor, Nioh 2 - The Complete Edition is significantly more optimized and an incredible experience on the Steam Deck.
While there was some changes under the hood, Nioh does have the ability to run and when it does, it runs like a damn charm!
Potion Permit runs incredibly well on the Steam Deck out of the box. The recommended settings do add a bit of battery, but the game shines on its own, especially with the vibrancy plugin.
I wanted to like Metal Hellsinger, and I think it has a lot of potential, but the incredible soundtrack can't save this from the crashing and performance issues on Steam Deck.
While it could be more stable at 40 FPS, Judgment feels fantastic on the Deck so far!
