2023 was a pretty amazing year for games, but I’m also interested to hear what didn’t meet expectations or didn’t run as well as you expected it to.

    My favorite was the first Talos Principle, TP2 is also great, but the suspense in the story of 1 was so much I found it hard to put the game down (My Steam year in review shows I played it for 37 days straight). The puzzles in TP1 were also harder (TP2 had hard optional puzzles but the story was so long that I lost all will to do even 1 more puzzle by the game end, plus there’s no fast travel to those optional puzzles)

    I didn’t like Titanfall 2 on the Steam Deck, the game is fine, but FPS games just dont work for me with joysticks.

      I’d recommend flickstick +gyro for fps games, there’s a definite learning curve but it’s the only way I’ve found that is at all comparable to playing with a mouse.

        Have been experimenting with this using the steam controller, but the learning curve is really high. Haven’t been close to dock+keyb+mouse level of dexterity.

        It’s fun though. Really hope it works out in the end.

      I’m surprised to hear you didn’t like TF2. If you’ve never played FPS on sticks I guess that makes sense, but TF2 has the best-feeling sensitivity curve of any game I’ve ever played on the sticks
