I play the Tale of Two Wastelands modlist on Deck

Includes both games and runs quite well!

Rougelikes/lites are perfect for the deck IMO.

Simple quick sessions that you can pick up and put down whenever without having to remember too much is what I want on a portable system. I tend to have downtime in my vehicle at work, and I can put in 20-30 minutes into Hades 2 and still have a pretty good idea of what was going on when I come back to it a few hours or a few days later, without having to search for a good stopping point.

Nah, I see what you mean, but wholly disagree with the LLM idea. I believe it's just the auther doing there thing. I've writen long winded messages,rereading and changing things tgat didn't make sense, the changing the back after reading it again because now I realize why I wrote it that way.

I'm not saying that's what they did, but I did have to reread a few sentences to understand what I was reading.

Not sure how to make sense of the first one, but as for the second one, it seems like they forgot to type a word. Add "on" right before "Valve's handheld", and that sentence makes sense now.

The author/owner for the article/site is from the UK, so it shouldn't be a translation issue.

Is it just me or does this article seem like it was either written in a different language and poorly translated into English or by an LLM?

*Ed, here's what I think feels like an LLM:*

With a fresh month here now it's February 2026

it's still an interesting look into what people are playing Valve's handheld across the globe.

Just feels *off*.

I'm quite surprised by Fallout NV. It is older and also not geared towards the deck right?

Maybe because of the fallout show? But it is definitely an old game that I didn't think was as popular as Fallout 3 (even though it is much better in my opinion).

Those are games that were on deep sale in December / are cheap / indie / most played before.
