I played Transistor on mobile a while back and enjoyed it. Hades is definitely on my wishlist
Hollow Knight… Metroidvania, Castlevania SotN was my absolute favorite forever. Thanks for tipping me off on the one. I do own Bloodstained and am making some progress on that one. This looks equally great!
Ori and the Will of the Wisp is a good metroidvania, with nice ambiance/music, but the story is a bit generic. It plays well on the Steam Deck, as I guess most metroidvanias do.
Yeah I think the high quality indie game side of things is where the Steam Deck really shines. I've got so used to high FPS on my gaming PC that dropping to 60Hz on the big triple A games kinda sucks.
Plus playing these indie games gives a massive longevity boost in the battery department if you set your deck right
Bloodstained Ritual of the Night is a spiritual successor of SotN. It's also on a huge sale now.
