I am getting my first Steam Deck! I used to be PC gamer back in the day and used to play a lot of FPS like Blood, Heretic, Hexen, as well as RPGs like Monkey Island and KQ6. I have not not been playing on PC for a long time and switched to Playstation and Switch a while ago. Now, back to PC. :)

I hope the nice people of this community will recommend me a few less known PC exclusive games based on my favorites:

  • Dark Souls Series
  • Anything by From Software
  • Ori Series
  • Hollow Knight
  • Dead Cells
  • Blasphemous
  • What remains of Edith Finch
  • The War of Mine
  • ICO
  • Shadow of the Colossus
  • My Friend Pedro

More context. Not a fan of top down camera (like Diablo) or FPS games or almost anything by Square Enix (except Nier).

Already bought Planet of Lana and HiFi Rush, so looking forward to play them.

PS. I also asked the same question to ChatGPT and Microsoft GPT to see what game it suggests. As expected most recommendations were useless as it copied some of the games I indicated and others were PS5 games. Only two recommendation looked interesting but they are both under development: The Milk Lake, Skelethrone
