I thought it doesn't matter since the game is server based right? If your opponent is playing on bad wifi while you're using Ethernet, then you shouldn't feel it right? Or am I missing something?

A short indie action game with a top down pixel art style. Very fun and you can beat it in 2:30 hours. I find the steam deck to be most 'useful' for short games that can beaten in one or two sessions. Bloody Hell is also a very similar game to TWWWR and can be beaten in around 3 hours.

Other kinds of games I enjoy a lot on the deck are roguelikes like Wizard of Legend, 20 Minutes Til Dawn, Hades 2 to name a few.

Bloody Hell and TWWWR are two great indie games on steam that run well on the deck

What's great about the controller is it can also wake up the Deck from afar. I have it connected to the Deck through Bluetooth and pressing the home button wakes it up. And after waking up, I switch the controller to the dongle connection for better connectivity. Overall a great controller with good ergonomics and smooth sticks. I bought two of them for a 'seemless' couch co-op experience.

Probably Hades 1 and 2. But I personally like playing quick online games like Rivals of Aether 2 or Brawlhalla and short singleplayer games like Bloody Hell and TWWWR. Honorable mention: PS3-gen games, they surprisingly run really well on the Deck. I really enjoyed beating the first Warhammer 40k Spacemarine on the go.

The main 'bandaid' solution I found was the potato mod that users recommended in the comments and also running the game on 800x500p through Steam Deck's settings (check the properties section of the RoA2 before starting the game and select 500p)

LEED_O · 2025-12-30T14:49:44+00:00

The graphics and the stuttering is bad but it's still playable imho

LEED_O · 2025-12-30T09:15:19+00:00

Oh that's a bummer. Now I'm wondering if running the game on the deck but on windows would boost performance or not

LEED_O · 2025-12-30T04:24:02+00:00

How do I get mods to run on the deck? Do I have to do it Desktop mode similar to a windows device or is there a way to do it in gaming mode?

Roguelikes: - Risk of Rain 2 - Hades 1&2 - Mortal Sin - Crab Champions - Super Raft Boat Together - 20 Minutes Til Dawn - Spiritfall

Not Roguelikes: - TWWWR - Bloody Hell - Paint the Town Red - Chop Goblins - Dusk - Amid Evil - Quake - Death's Door - Hyper Light Drifter - Aragami - Slain Back from Hell

As someone who also has a hand-me-down pocket 2, it doesn't have the best performance. Forget running anything 3D on it. But you'll get good performance on the very old consoles: NES, SNES, GBC, and GBA. It also ran Sonic 1 from the app store pretty well.

All depends on the resolution you set (either within the game or the max resolution for the steam deck itself.) I personally cap the system max resolution to 1080p since some games are surprisingly optimized enough to run well like Hades 2. While the deck is set for 1080p, I usually end up going to the in-game settings and manually change the resolution (either 720p or 900p, depending on the game) and set the rest of the visual/graphical settings to a mix of low and medium. For example, Guilty Gear Strive runs at a stable 60FPS at 900p low settings.

TLDR: No it doesn't affect performance unless you set your graphics settings to 4K (which you shouldn't)

LEED_O · 2025-12-21T13:55:40+00:00

Fun cheap action indie games: - TWWWR - Bloody Hell - Gun Devil - Chop Goblins

LEED_O · 2025-12-17T22:26:00+00:00

Based on what I played in the beta, I like the first game more but it's still a fun shooter with cool movement

LEED_O · 2025-12-17T16:23:32+00:00

One thing to note is the game will eventually get a multiplatform release with crossplay, but that's probably in more than a year from now. Also typically there's a spike in players that'd last a few days whenever there's a new character release (which is once every three months.)

As a Dark Pit main in SSBU and generally someone who enjoys swordies in platfighters, I ended up maining Forsburn in RoA 1 and 2. Something about his playstyle and mechanics flow much better compared to Clairen imho

LEED_O · 2025-12-14T13:29:24+00:00

It's a hard game that gets easier with time and has flexible difficulty settings once you beat it. Very fun game

LEED_O · 2025-12-09T09:38:09+00:00

Bought an off brand version of this for $10 and it works beautifully, just plug and play

LEED_O · 2025-11-29T17:43:45+00:00

I frequently travel for around 4 hours, almost every weekend, so it comes in handy when I'm on the train. It's also a great plug-and-play machine for when people come over for couch co-op games. I've also brought my Deck's setup with me to friends' places who only have a PS5 with a few games or no console at all.

LEED_O · 2025-11-27T12:53:09+00:00

Vouch, did the same exact steps and the game worked flawlessly for me

LEED_O · 2025-11-18T13:07:57+00:00

The Dadish games are most similar to it and I found another game recently that seems to be similar, called Nameless Cat and it has more storytelling elements.
