I was wondering how much you are using your Steam Deck? And did the games you play on it change since you bought it?

I find that I used it a lot when I first got it, but my usage has gone down in the mean time. That’s mostly because I play games that are not a great fit for the Steam Deck (strategy, building, etc.) and I prefer to play those on my PC.

    You can play BAR on the steam deck!? That’s awesome! But how are the controls? Playing without keyboard/mouse?

      touchpad + gyro works too!

      I play against the Barbarian hard AI and can hold my own fine, I dont expect to crush Total Aniliation vets using $2000 gaming computer setups with mouse and keyboard, big monitors and absurd framerates tho… but so what?

      I am quickly falling in love with playing BAR co-op online with my bro while I lounge on the couch.

      The BARbarian AI is genuinely dynamic and fun to play against, it is extremely impressive especially for a community developed game!

      I feel like I could hold my own in a casual game of BAR against humans but even if I couldnt I could care less, I can play BAR wherever I want on the deck and it is a blast!
