Weird question probably but here goes :

I'm discovering the joy of having a Dock, it's great!

But what's even better is I can just get my PC to stream more powerful games to my Deck (that the Deck would otherwise struggle with)

It works flawlessly (zero input delay, or rather not noticeable), better than Steam Link / Remote Play (I get input delay on this), and I haven't tried Moonlight

It's also so much more convenient than moving my PC to the living room (where the TV is) and plugging it there!

So I'm like wow Order of the Sinking Star is awesome, but what if I played games that my Deck sometimes has trouble with? Like I could run Witcher 3 Remastered with some better settings!

So I guess I'm not asking for great Steam Deck games, it's more like, what are games that my PC could run that feel great on controller, that I would stream to my Docked Deck?

Thanks!!

Honestly lately I've been feeling like playing racing games, but mostly I'm interested in games that are enjoyable on a controller, I've always played on a PC so it's kind of "new" to me, I like how I can game on a more relaxed position in the couch

If you don't mind getting games outside of steam and tinkering, Need For Speed Underground 2 is my favorite racing game. There are different types of races, deep car tuning/customization and a decent world to openly drive around in. And a banging soundtrack too.

I haven't played it, but I have wishlisted Sonic racing CrossWorlds because apparently it is a great alternative to Mario Kart, with local co-op.
