I’m really tempted to pick up Psychonauts 2 which is currently 90% off.

Zahille7,

Do yourself a favor and do it. It’s honestly an actual masterpiece of gaming imo.

kemsat,

I got it full price and it was worth it

Dezzorian,

Thank you for the heads up, been wanting to play this for quite a while. Absolutely loved the first game.

Haven’t bought yet but I’m thinking of getting Old School Rally. I played a few racing games that looked just like this when I was a child so the visuals are giving me intense nostalgia

Poop,

This game is fun! It’s still early access, but it is worth the regular price. There’s a decent amount of courses and the driving physics are fun. If you are talking about the old Colin McCrae games this will be your jam.

simple,

I played this one and wasn’t super impressed with it. It’s fine but the levels are very simple and don’t have that dangerous rally style to them. It felt more like you’re just driving on casual dirt roads.

Romkslrqusz,

I like this game a lot. Played the Colin McRae and Sega Rally games as a kid, this game captures that feeling.

Normally play rally sims in my sim pit, it’s nice to have something very casual to play on Steam Deck

Man I’m the same. I have a couple hours screen time after work but often I’m tired an just wanna read a book.

I’ve only just started gaming again after a twenty year gap so I’ve got a big wishlist. I get excited about games that I want to play, buy them on sale - and then don’t have time to play them.

I started gaming when pong and space invaders were cutting edge. There’s just so much cool stuff out there these days, damn we’re lucky, I just wish I had more playtime!

Oh, shit, there’s a sale?

store.steampowered.com

Hmmm… old games I already own, games I won’t bother downloading…

Epic Mickey Rebrushed for $30 isn’t bad.
Space Marines II for $47.99 needs a bigger discount…

DoucheBagMcSwag,

Space Marine II came out only a few months ago, expect a deeper discount mid '25.

Nothing yet, maybe the Vampire Survivors Castlevania DLC. Otherwise probably nothing and wait for the Winter Sale.

SplashJackson,

It’s pretty good!

Psychonauts 2, 90% off.

stardust,

Oh that’s a good deal and I’ve been waiting years for it to get cheap! Time to finally play it.

@bjoern_tantau@swg-empire.de avatar

I will probably buy Horizon Forbidden West for my son. Told him to wait until it is discounted. But 40 € is still very much the full price of many other games. And we already bought all the Christmas presents this year. Decisions decisions.

At least I’ve still got a few more days to decide.

@domi@lemmy.secnd.me avatar

FYI, it’s 35€ on green man gaming right now.

moody,

Not sure what the price is in Euros, but it’s also %41 off on Fanatical.

Hi it’s me your son!

I got a steam deck last spring, before that I’ve not done any gaming since I had a PS2 so I’ve got a good twenty years of games to catch up on. It’s a bit frustrating how crap I am at gaming, particularly with shooters. I’m trying some different things to try and figure out what I’m into. I recently finished bioshock, so I just bought bioshock infinite. Also alien isolation, Alan wake, resident evil, and Uncharted legacy of thieves collection. I don’t get a lot of screen time but I’ll find time to try em out and see what grabs me.

Since you have a Steam Deck, did you experiment with gyro and trackpad aim? I suck at controller aiming as well but that makes it so much easier.

Regrettable_incident,
@Regrettable_incident@lemmy.world avatar

Hmm no I haven’t. Thanks, maybe I should give it a try. I guess trackpad aim is just using the pads instead of the joystick? I’ve not used gyros at all, does that require tilting the device? Yeah I seem to be enjoying FPS games but I’m frustrated by how shit I am even on easy mode! I used to be good at unreal tournament way back but seems like games have come a long way since then and I’ve lost the knack.

I guess trackpad aim is just using the pads instead of the joystick?

You can combine as well. I usually use the stick on the left hand and the trackpad on the right one. You can also go back and forth while playing.

does that require tilting the device?

Yep, you can set it to activate only if your finger is resting on the right joystick. Very useful for precise movement, just bring the camera in an approximate direction with the stick and do the rest with the gyro control.

For the more popular games there’s usually a few community profiles you can download and try before messing with Steam Input yourself.

Regrettable_incident,
@Regrettable_incident@lemmy.world avatar

Hmm I’m not sure I like the idea of tilting the device - with the steam deck you’re tilting the screen too. Doesn’t that impact your view of the screen?

But I’m definitely gonna try your trackpad suggestion. Thanks, I’ll see how it goes. Do you use it in hectic situations - like doom etc? Or is it better for sniping and stuff where you have time to aim?

domi,
@domi@lemmy.secnd.me avatar

Doesn’t that impact your view of the screen?

Depends on the sensitivity you configure, usually you only tilt a few degress. I do prefer it on a Dualsense controller though with no display attached to the controller.

Do you use it in hectic situations - like doom etc? Or is it better for sniping and stuff where you have time to aim?

Usually for instances where I have time to aim. I have seen quite a few people who are really good with the trackpad but I’m more of a mouse or gyro control guy.

Trackpad rules in strategy games though.
