Euro Truck Simulator 2 / American Truck Simulator for me.
Hell Divers 2. Used to be Mario Kart kind of, although I do get competitive there. Also Muse Dash.
Not sure about comfort… but I always find myself picking rocket league up on my steam deck for a few matches. Probably because it’s a bit mindless and lets my brain take a break by only reacting in the moment.
Toy Story 2 on the PS1
Final Fantasy XII & Fallout 3 [Steam/GOG]
Dwarf Fortress
Oldschool runescape
Hell yeah. I wish the Lemmy community was bigger for osrs.
Path of Exile, I just love the game so much.
For the last two years it’s been BG3.
Lately, it’s been Hell Divers. Used to be Mario Kart.
I can Hell Dive for hours if I’m feeling shitty or for just one mission if I just need a quick escape. I feel like I’ve gotten an insane amount of value out of it.
The Sly Cooper Trilogy. I still have them on PS2
Alpha Centauri.
I know I’m aging myself, but there has never been anything else like it. The depth, the narrative, the way the gameplay evolves. It’s a masterpiece.
Nice, and I fully agree: The best turn based 4x Civ I have played so far. Music, fractions and the story are all perfect. The factions play quite different and allow for diverse strategies to win. Surprised that there are not more copy-cats that try to pull it off.

- Street Fighter II in basically any edition. Was my entry point in fighting games and to this day it just feels ‘right’
- Street Fighter III, 3rd Strike (It is that good and to this day one of the highlights)
- Slay the Spire
- Contra (NES)
- Super Mario Brothers (NES) (What an utterly brilliant game)
- Castlevania 3 (NES)
- Vampyre Survivors (Ok, maybe just pure dopamine addiction)
- Sudoku
- Final Fantasy 1 Pixel Remaster
- XCOM
- Open X-COM
- Olli Olli
- rogue
- Tetris
- Into the breach … and Quake
If you’re into Street Fighter it’s worth checking out 6. Is the first one that really hooked me since SF2.
The tournament scene for the game is crazy as well. As much as I enjoy playing, just watching some of the high tier matchups on YouTube feels like when the best dudes at the arcade would clash back in the day.
Thanks, you are spot on: Playing Street Fighter 6 casually and even bought a SteamDeck to have a computer with enough power to run it. :-) For me it is the 3rd, after 3rd Strike (ha ;-)) which hooked me, although I have to confess Fightcarde and 3rd Strike are still peak Street Fighter for me. Street Fighter IV never ‘clicked’ for me, and I didn’t like the presentation of Street Fighter V at all.
Hope we run into each other in an online match, though I hail from Europe so we might not be in the same region.
Kingdom hearts, any one of them really. But 358/2 days is my favorite
Minecraft is the one I keep coming back to year after year. Throw in a massive automation based mod pack and I’m set for months until the save lags to the point of unplayability.
To help with lag for me I ran a server on a separate computer with some extra performance mods then played on my PC. It helps a little but still will eventually lag
