Hi everyone, I’m looking for some grindy games to play on the deck (any genre is OK).
Currently playing monster hunter world and I think I’ll give factorio a try.
Any suggestions?
You could probably play the SCS Truck Simulator games basically indefinitely.
Vampire Survivors is an absurdly addicting Deck game, and can be considered grindy if you go for the eggs late-game.
Deep Rock Galactic is a good one too, if you’re okay with no aim assist and playing solo or with randoms.
I can’t believe I have a fancy ass gaming PC and played like 50+ hours of Vampire Survivor.
Then bought a Steam Deck and played another 50+ hours of Vampire Survivor.
Factorio ought to keep you busy for about 500 hours even without mods
I’ve heard enough that I wish I pulled the trigger last month.
The best time to plant a time-sinking tree is 100 years ago. The second best time is today.
I just finished a 200 hour Rampant playthrough yesterday (on my PC) so I love me some Factorio. But I can’t imagine how it plays with console controls. Is it decent?
The dev went to great lengths to optimize the controller support. He wrote about it on his blog while he was working on it. Pretty interesting stuff.
I haven’t looped back to the game since it was added. How would you say the controller support is compared to the trackpad style setups that were previously required on Deck?
Crystal Project. Classic final fantasy but different.
really enjoying halls of torment, vampire survivors, project zomboid, and persona 5 on the deck lately. And of course Palworld runs great, very grindy but i’ve been playing it mainly on desktop.
ESO can be grindy depending on what you do.
Playing this myself in anticipation of the upcoming expansion adding skill customization.
Plays well on the Deck, plus mods are great to help make some of the grind even better (I’m loving the lazy writ crafting mod).
im minimal with my mods but tamriel trading centre is pretty much required.
i wrote a command line addon updater for the steam deck. https://joyo.dev/eso/banana
