My wife and I don’t need steam decks, my wife and I don’t need steam decks…
Edited to add: bought two >_>
Do you want one? Will you use it? Could that money bring you more happiness in the long run used in some other way?
These are the kinds of questions I ask myself before spending >$50, usually prevents me from regret.
Steam has a Top 100 on Steam Deck list that highlights some great games: https://store.steampowered.com/sale/decktop100
It’s also worth checking out http://gg.deals/ and http://www.isthereanydeal.com to make sure you’re getting the best deal.
Going to let things gel in my head a bit, but I’m pretty sure I will get:
- Uncharted
- Cassette Beasts
- Persona 5
I generally don’t bite on games until they hit $35 or so. Waiting for Spiderman and Returnal to go lower. There’s a bunch of smaller games I’ve been contemplating for a while that I will pick through when I get around to buying stuff, might get one or two extras.
Time to get Boltgun. Wish it was a little cheaper but that’s ok
This was my purchase too. I’ve been really into the boomer shooter renaissance that’s been going on.
Also got the hammer watch four pack for me and some friends.
I made a long list of recommendations at !patientgamers@sh.itjust.works
I’m so far behind on my games backlog, but I’m sure I’ll buy something. Steamdeck is on sale and well worth the money.
I picked up the Yakuza Collection. I played 0 on PS4 and loved it, but never got around to the others. It’s one of the few games where I spent the time to complete side quests and mini games and actually enjoyed doing it.
Also got The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky - I’ve heard good things about the Legend of Heroes series, and want to start at the beginning.
I’ve been very tempted to try Steins;Gate and Stray, but I’m not likely to get around to them until the next sale so will probably just leave them until then.
High on Life seems like a good, fun piece, now for 50% off. Considering it is still fairly recent (December 2022 release) and well rated, not a bad deal at all in my eyes.

Anyway, I am going for Hogwarts Legacy. I was holding back until they introduce some patch fixes, and now I can even save some sweet cash.
Absolutely loved High on Life. Started it not expecting much but it was on game pass so I wasn’t going to lose anything. Ended up barely being able to put it down.
You need to not mind Justin Roiland and that kind of humour because it’s literally the entire game.
Completely stupid fun game.
RimWorld and High on Life both have my eye. Praying for my wallet that’s the only damage I do this year
Rimworld is fantastic if that genre of game interests you.
Dwarf Fortress is also on sale if you want something a little more intense and clunky, the QOL changes for the Steam version modernize it quite a bit.
