• Nova Lands just came out and has native controller support. Works very well, even if it’s somewhat simplistic.
• Factorio just released controller support which works well most of the time but it’s kinda fiddly.

Also, beware that DSP does not support cloud saves because the devs can’t compress their save data enough to fit in the Steam cloud requirements.

I’ve been using this for around 8 months now on PC and Deck.

• Having multiple sync profiles each with different configurations is great if you use a variety of devices.
• The hall effect sticks are obviously great.
• Some of the programmable button combos can come in handy.

The only things I don’t like about them are:

• Sometimes it doesn’t connect first try to my PC.
• The right trigger developed a squeak after Diablo 4.

Would still definitely recommend though because you’re basically getting an Xbox Elite controller for the price of a standard Xbox controller.

You are very welcome. The more people that play Control, the better!

I’d hold on Cyberpunk. There will undoubtedly be a bundled/discounted version of it when Phantom Liberty comes out in September.

As a counter offer, may I present Control? One of the best action games I’ve played in decades that also has a really interesting story (if you like trippy Twin Peaks/X-Files style stories) and it’s only $10USD currently in the sale. Runs pretty well on the Deck, and if you have a beefy PC to play on as well, has some really great RTX features.

The only other game that really fits your criteria that I would recommend is Hades which has already been mentioned. I put over 300 hours into Hades across PC and Switch (pre Steam Deck), and it’s one of the only roguelike games that has a super compelling story.

It’s the Nomad Ultra 13" OLED. I grabbed it for a simple secondary display to pair with my Ultrawide and also as a portable monitor for my Steam Deck.

• Diablo 4: plays great on Deck and is the perfect way to kill time during lunch break.
• DROP - System Breach: surprisingly tense hacking puzzle/pattern recognition game. Sleeper hit for me.
• Humanity: Lemmings meets Robo Rally, but designed by the Rez/Tetris Effect people.

Winks/Winkers in memory of Lemmywinks?
