The Steam Deck has completely revitalized my love of gaming. I have the newest Xbox as well with Gamepass but found myself going back to the same games from over a decade ago and I’d go through phases of playing regularly or not at all. On the Steam Deck I play a lot of indie games and I find my games on Fanatical (bundles) or Humble Bundle as well as Steam sales.

I haven’t even tried plugging the Steam Deck into a monitor/keyboard/mouse but that’s something I want to do eventually to try games that don’t work well on a gamepad.

I’m particularly fond of roguelite/rougelike (also love StS/FTL), deck building, RPG, and/or town builder type games. I also play some games via emulation (PS/PS2/Xbox/GBA) which can be a ton of fun especially with save/load states (don’t come for me, I don’t have the time to grind like did when I was younger playing these games for the first time).
