Stellaris, Morrowind, and also started Danganronpa Ultra Despair Girls.
Stellaris - This one has a love/hate relationship. Playing with mods and its fun when I get to play, but the real annoyances are when other players keep pausing the game which slows gameplay to a literal crawl, and when Paradox changes literally everything for the worse in every update they put out.
Morrowind - An ole standby classic. This one literally never gets old.
Danganronpa - I liked Trigger Happy Havoc and Goodbye Despair, and started off liking Killing Harmony until about midway through and then actually really disliked the ending in that one. I only just started Ultra Despair Girls and the third person shooter gameplay is not what I was expecting, but it seems fun. The game is very clearly an ultra low budget game, and the art style of the 3D characters doesn’t quite match the more vibrant style I expect, they look more washed out. And the animations are a bit rough especially on character faces. But I am looking forward to seeing what Spike Chunsoft has cooked up in this one.

Cyberpunk 2077 - been on my backlog for a while, finally got to this and am having a blast
Last Epoch - big fan of ARPGs and was waiting for it to get out of early access,
V-Rising - played quite a bit over the last few months but am easing off since v1.0 is coming out and will mean wipe to everything
Motor Town, I am hopelessly obsessed because I am an easy mark. Give me a game with realistic driving mechanics and tire grip modeling that doesn’t force me to go around in circles on a closed race track but rather lets me roam around an open world doing taxi jobs and other stuff and I will become utterly obsessed.
Especially on my steam deck the fact that I can just jump in and out of playing or set my car to autopilot and put the steam deck down while I do other stuff… it is the perfect chill cozy game for me because I can interface with the game any way I want from chill autopilot jobs to pushing 120mph while trying to weave through traffic and keep the car on the road.
It doesn’t run amazing on the steam deck, but it runs well enough the benefits of being able to walk around/chill on the couch while playing outweigh the occasional performance hiccups.
The best way I can describe Motor Town is like if old school Top Gear made a driving game where you can absolutely drive around like it’s Euro Truck Simulator and follow the rules, or you can throw a monster engine into a vehicle and drive it like an utter fucking madman. There are vehicles all the way from sports cars to dump trucks to tow trucks to 18 wheelers so when you get bored of one driving style you can just jump in a different category of vehicle and mix it up.
I’ve been trying The Darkest Dungeon but it’s a bit too complex to learn on Steam Deck.
Mostly Saints Row: The Third Remastered. I had a hankering, and it’s scratching the itch for me.
