Hello peeps. Life’s thrown me some curve-balls recently, and I’d like a bit of an escape. Can anyone recommend a decent game in the vein of Skyrim, Fallout or Deus Ex/System Shock for the steam deck, that isn’t 25 or 30 quid please? Something on offer for less than a tenner would be ideal. I’m sure there are some great older RPGs out there that I’ve missed, the Deck is the first time I’ve got back into gaming for quite a few years, and while I’m sure I could quite happily just play Brotato for the next few years, I reckon there’s something a bit more immersive out there for me to find!

    valheim and skyrim

    i am a much more relaxed gamer on the deck and oh boy these games have such a satisfying layer to them when just vibing there. spent an hour hiking the mistlands for the vibe last week

    valheim is a bit more on the expensive side but skyrim is often for sale at like 10 bux

      Valheim is often on sale at $10 as well.

      Valheim is a great game to just relax, chilling in the meadows, building and exploring.

        For a second I got mixed up and interpreted your comment as

        chilling in the plains

        And I though “what kind of madman—“

        How good is Valheim for solo play? I’m on the fence about getting it myself for the deck.
