Hi. So background is I’m 50 and I’ve not done much gaming since vice city and the original silent hills +unreal tournament. I’m trying to get back into it but I’m frustratingly crap.
I’ve got a steam deck and my neighbour has one too, we were looking for games we could play either head to head or cooperative. People suggested left 4 dead 2 and we managed to get that working through lobby thing but it was laggy and TBH it was a bit chaotic for us. Too much constant running and shooting and no time to pause for thought or discuss strategy.
I think we’re looking for something with a bit of occasional violence but also some strategy - not just bang bang all the time. Maybe even something that doesn’t involve violence at all. But we both working and only got an hour or two a day for game time.
Any suggestions?
First if it’s possible to locally connect 2 steam decks (without a fuckin cable!). Second on what games might be fun. Needs to not have a big learning curve and be something we can just play for an hour or two when we have time.
Any suggestions would be very welcome. Cheers
bring your decks into the same WLAN-network to play games that don’t rely on online servers.
a possible game could be “Alien Swarm: reactive drop”, a so called twin stick shooter , the top down perspective helps too keep your orientation and the stressful sequences are often telegraphed.
“towerfall ascension” is a 2d action game that can be played in coop, which is easy to pickup (but it does get difficult)
