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!!

    Steam has a list of games that are “Controller Friendly”. I mean the Library view in Steam client, next to “All Games” list. On your Steam Deck it lists games that are verified for Steam Deck, but on PC client it lists games that are Controller friendly in general.

    You can create a custom Collection for that too, a list that is available on all systems you log in. Go to “All Games” view, click “Fliter” (or X button), scroll down to “Hardware support” and enable filter “Full Controller Support”. Scroll down and click “Save as Dynamic Collection”. Name it and save it. Now this is a dymanic collection, which means it will automatically expand with new added games that fit this criteria. I would say all games from this list should fit your requirement and use case of being playable with a gamepad.
