I Bought a Steam Deck to Play Games and It's Totally Satisfying
Please recommend some games I can enjoy compactly with the Steam Deck OLED.
I bought it because it's a really popular product, and it's definitely quieter than a PC, plus the portability is a huge advantage. Remote Play is a game-changer.
Please recommend games that are more on the light and fun side. I'm currently into indies, but I'm thinking of trying out some triple-A titles next.

Yeah, once you buy a Steam Deck, your gaming life changes.
I quit the PC bang too once I got my Steam Deck. For indies, I highly recommend Hades, Dead Cells, Slay the Spire, and such. For AAA titles, the battery drains fast, so I'd suggest hooking it up to a dock in the living room.
Well, it's still a bit pricey to get an OLED... And if you run AAA games, the fan noise gets crazy, right? It's fine for indie-only, though.
Is remote play that good?
I also used to play with just a gamepad before moving to the Steam Deck lol.
Recommended: Hollow Knight, Celeste, Stardew Valley, and Black Myth: Wukong is a bit demanding but it runs. With FSR on, the framerate isn't bad. Just make sure to get an SSD with plenty of capacity.
That's one more expensive toy. Still, if you're satisfied, that's fine.
