Sorry this is so late, I honestly thought I had made one already for this month.

    I beat the final boss on in Ninja Gaiden: Ragebound the other night. Great game.

    Since I was apparently in the mood for punishing games, I fired up Furi. I bounced off it pretty hard when I first got it (I really suck at parrying), but I’ve beat the first fight and it’s starting to click. Very cool game.

    Don’t think I noticed in Hollow Knight, but there is definitely less input lag for the Proton/Windows version of Silksong when docked.

    Pacific Drive!

    The game got patched quite a few times and now it can hit a stable 30 (most of the time)(there will be dip into 25fps when things start exploding or under heavy acid rain).

    Despite having to turn all graphical settings to the lowest, the sound effect and environmental eerieness still did a great job creating the atmosphere.

    Overall, a drive or two on the deck feels awsome. And when you got bored, just put it to sleep and drive a real car.

      Pacific drive, is it like a roguelike and a collectathon game rolled into one?

      I keep trying to figure out if its for me and it seems not quite a horror game and not quite linear or open world. It seems sorta like a game that never ends with little upgrades until you run out and i might be wrong.

        The story is linear, but the gameplay can be less linear if you choose to mess around.

        The map is basically a large area with many “zones” interconnected. You’ll have a desired zone to go to(by story requirement or upgrade collection), and you are free to route your drive there however you like(avoiding bad weather, choose zones with gas stations…).

        As for how a round end, think of extraction games. You’ve collected a lot of parts for your next run, now you get out of there via the game’s extraction mechanic (This part is most fun since the game turn the heat up), you will end up safe’n sound in the garage if you succeed. Failing a run is rare on normal difficulty, you will keep ~ 40% of your loot in a failed run.

        Each run is quite lengthy, you can pause & save mid-run in game. So if you want something that can just kill time, this game will do just that.

    I bought the original Hollow Knight after the great reception of Silksong. Needed a game to play on my recent flight.

    I have never played a platformer like this since I was a child and played Super Mario on the BGA. But I like it a lot!

    Going through all the Mass Effect games, and nearing the end of the second game. Legendary edition runs amazingly on the deck. If you haven’t played the trilogy yet, I can highly recommend it.

      Have you attempted modding it on the deck? I’m itching for another trilogy playthrough but have been holding off because I have a long list of mods I want to try.

        Not at all. I used to be a Playstation gamer so I guess I’m not used to mods😅

        My only modification is to lock it at 30fps and 5 TDP for better battery life.

    Started Triangle Strategy this week. It’s an okay title from this genre but it’s a bit slow and the story scenes between the fights feel like a drag sometimes. But all in all a solid game though quite expensive, I think (or hope) I bought it on sale.

    I just picked up the Lego collection on Humble Bundle and have been putting some time into the Star Wars collection. It’s been wonderful!

    I started playing Resident Evil Village as I wanted to try it out, been continuing to play Sea of Thieves, that’s about it really.
