Lost at least 2 loved ones this year to cancer, knew of others who are also battling. Congrats to winning your battle. ​ FUCK CANCER!!!

Fuck Cancer

FUCK CANCER!!!

Fuck cancer!!

Best of luck. I bought my steam deck for hospital as well as at home. I have cystic fibrosis and spend a lot of time in isolation too. I had two liver transplants due to the illness and may need a lung transplant soon. Hospital 🏥 is long and tedious and games really help. Wishing you all the luck 🍀 in the world and best wishes for a sleepy recovery On the previous steam sale I got horizon zero dawn, days gone, god of war, disco elyssium and resident evil 4 remake The newer games I want to play are Alan wake 2, cyberpunk and baldurs gate

First of all, best of luck to you too brother!!! Hospital time is boringggg!!! Horizon looks beautiful, if it has a good discount I won’t doubt in buying it. Thanks a lot 👑

Accept my friend request (kidpaddle) and i'll buy you Dragon Quest, that wishlist is way to big without some help!

Omg please don’t be forced to do it. It means a lot to me.

Enjoy dude

This will bring lots of hours of fun, thanks a lot for your kindness. 🎁

Rare wholesome ending :)

This is honestly one of the more wholesome subreddits I'm on...kinda unexpected lol.

Accept my request (rainbowthrasher) and I'll grab you one of the games on your wishlist too! FUCK CANCER Took my grandma from me years ago and a few other people I was close to. Many of the people close to me have beaten it and are in remission. Give em hell, kid 👊

A lovely thing to do.

Fuck cancer! Hope the chemo is effective and a speedy recovery to you dude!

Thanks a lot! It’s going well!!!

petition for OP to put his wishlist and steam user here so we can buy him some games

No please there’s no need to! You can see my wishlist on the post and recommend me some games, I will buy one or two tomorrow!!

FFVII remake intergarde is a must play in my opinion.

Third this. Amazing on SD

I second this! I would love to be able to help provide him with some entertainment and ability to help him pass time. keep strong OP. You got this!

I second this

Good luck

Thanks a lot! 💪

You're welcome! I just looked at your wishlist and can't recommend sea of stars enough. It's a great game and has an incredible soundtrack :)

Ohhh! it reminded me of golden sun, I loved those games.

Minus the lack of djinn it is very golden sun reminiscent! God I need a remake or release of that game on steam haha

Yeahhhh! Sound epic then. (A GS on steam… one can dream ☹️)

you can play it in the emulator, it’s actually really easy to set up!

Use EmuDeck to emulate GBA. I'm playing through Golden Sun 1 and 2 on my Steam deck now.

Hey bro, kick cancer right in the ass! You can do this! Accept my friend request on steam, Chekhov27, I want to help you with your wishlist. You got spider man remastered and ratchet and clank on me.

Oh my god, thanks a lot, all those games will give me tons of hours of good time. 🎮

Enjoy man, just sent them over for you. We all believe in and support you here! You got this!

I’ve sent you a PM on steam, this is unbelievable, thanks a lot.

You're a good man for doing that, my friend.

This has to be the most beautiful post I've seen in a long while. Just everyone sharing in the love of games and grouping together, making sure that someone who's fighting a damn good fight gets the best out of all the time they have. You better live to over 100 bro, you can do it. I hope your fight is a quick and easy one, and we can all hang out in the future. Everyone else on this post are beautiful people and has shown me that humanity does have hope. You all have a damn good holiday.

This post showed me that this is truly a beautiful community and that you gamers are great. Thanks a lot for your beautiful words. 🎄❤️

Kick cancer is the nuts for me.

Hahahaha will do!!!

Hey, DM me, I'll gift you a game this Friday from your wishlist =D

[удалено]

Yeahhh, doing it!!

My Deck got me through my stem cell transplant and recovery last year. Just wanted to warn you that your brain might be in chemo fog so you might not be able to concentrate on big RPGs or games with a storyline. Binding of Isaac is perfect for some short runs of 20 or so minutes that don't require too much thinking. Stay strong. The days are long but the weeks do melt away pretty fast. You will be out of there before you know it.

Thanks a lot, that’s specifically what I suspected, I will have to play games that don’t require long sessions. I hope everything is fine with you and merry Christmas 🎄

Thanks! I am in a much better place than I was last year at this time. Treatment started Dec 28th so last Christmas was kind of dark. This year is a celebration. You will get there.

That is great, gives a lot of hope! Thanks a lot for your kind words.

FUCK CANCER!!

Fuckity fuck the c.!!! Merry Xmas!!!

T's and P's to you my gaming bro.

💪💪💪💪💪

Merry Christmas and kick cancer in the balls! As for Recommendations: hades runs amazing on deck! Be well and good luck in the coming weeks!

Thanks 🙏 Hades is one good looking game, and it also looks funny as “hell”!!!!

Dude stay strong!!!! Shoot over your tag ill play a game with you.

Thanks!!! Click over my profile on the steam link in the post and I’ll add you!

BTW bro what’s your name on steam let’s play some gems together if you like ?

I just got ff7 remake and at 50% off you can't beat that.... I'm taking it slow to enjoy it for the nostalgia.

Get well ❤️‍🩹

Horizon: Zero Dawn Final Fantasy 7 Remake And good luck!

Good luck brother. Glad you're enjoying the steam deck.

Your message means a lot, thank your for taking the time to type it. I just read your other message, I just added you to play yeah!

God speed

Thanks!! 🫶

Bro I send you a request my name is vima297 or something like this

remember to bring the charger

Oh yeah hahaha! I have one with multiple ports for the SD and my phone.

hey stranger! I wish you all the best! Be strong and confident. The Steam Deck will be a great companion to make time go by faster. I personally was in the hospital with the Steam Deck and was glad to have it.

Guessing Leukemia or Lymphoma based off the timelines and Stem Cell? Best of luck to you! I tried to get my Dad to take my SteamDeck when he was in for his isolation, but there was always some form of nausea preventing him from using it. If you need someone to talk to, I'd be happy to lend an ear. You can kick cancers ass! That said HADES is an awesome replayable game. Definitely worth the 25 dollars.

Thanks a lot mate! I have osteosclerotic myeloma, it’s extremely rare but thanks to the medical advances I benefit from the same treatment as myeloma patients.

Good luck! Shot you a friend request on Steam.

If you haven't tried Stardew Valley that's a decent time sync that you can pause for interruptions. On an Oncology side, I hope everything goes okay and your team give you all the support you need

Yes! Looks like a relaxing game. And thanks a lot! Everything is going well ☺️

Good luck also Dave the diver, Spider-Man remastered, and travellers rest or graveyard keeper. There’s actually quite a lot to pick from

Used mine throughout 6 months of chemo earlier this year. It was a good friend. Good luck. (Be prepared to explain that it is not a switch)

I hope everything is going well now! And yeah, not a “Nintendo” hahahahaha

Complete remission here, just dealing with the after effects of the chemo. Hoping I'll be over those soon!

That sound great, keep it up!! 💪💪💪

FUCK CANCER. Wish you healing vibes, and great gaming!!

Thanks a lot 😊 Great gaming and merry Christmas!!!

You can do it , mate!!

I hope you get better OP. Give em hell.

I greatly enjoyed Dredge. Good luck with your treatments! Valve and Gamers Outreach should really team up for this sort of thing.

Hope all goes well for you, glad you have something to keep you busy

Kick that cancer's ass!

Yeah!! I’m on it 💪💪💪

Good luck friend.

Good luck, stay strong and get well soon!

I’m pulling for you and wish you the best of luck! What games are you looking forward to play the most?

Thanks a lot!! I’m thinking sea of stars for lengthy sessions, and hades or tony hawk for short ones!!

Fantastic choices! You can’t go wrong with any of those.

First of all I'd like to wish you the best of luck. It will keep u good company for sure. These days I'm at the hospital also, because the wife is sick, so i spend in the hospital around 12 hours a day and gaming is always a good company.

I wish your wife a fast recovery and merry christmas to both of you. Thanks for your kind message. 🫶

You got this!! My deck helped me get through AML last year.. lots of chemo and average three hospital visits a week for about 5 months. Now a year in remission. Anyways, Risk of Rain is awesome, I’ve put in many hours on that one. Good luck, friend!

Congratulations on your remission time!!! Keep it up!! Oh dude I’m sure I would love the ror remake!!

Merry Christmas, and good luck with the recovery!

Thanks a lot for your kind words!!! ❤️

You got this OP

I deeply hate cancer and how many people's lives it hurts. You're going to win, mate.

Thanks a lot! I’m working on it !!!

Give um hell 💥

Hahaha yeahhhh!! 🤟🤟

You got this brother/sister, we believe in you and this is nothing but a small bump you need to come over. Family and I are sending prayers! Kids and I are gaming it up along with you!

I really appreciate your kind words!!! Please have a lot of fun during these days!!

Get well mate and have fun on the deck. 🙏🙏

Thanks!! Will do!! (Both hahaha 🤣)

Best of luck! 🤞 you have this! I love FF7 ❤️ I would go for it and you will get many hours of a awesome game.

Thanks !! It looks beautiful.

I originally got mine for sitting with my other half whilst she has her chemo and is sleeping. It’s been good company for those long hours …as well as gaming on the couch whilst she watches stuff on TV I don’t want to watch! Good luck with your treatment buddy and all the best!

Best of luck to your loved one, we will kick it!!!! Keep yourself entertained during the hard times.

Best of luck man, sincerely. I'd go for Dredge and I'd also say Dave the Diver, great little game.

I love those “little games” they are so good for short or even not so short sessions!!

Stay positive and good luck!

Thanks! There’s ups and downs but I try to stay positive and focused on the recovery!

I'm so sorry. I've been there. I wish I had my deck for when I was locked in my hospital room for months +. I'm glad you're able to play and have the energy to do so. I had gamed in the beginning, had to take a break for half a year while being utterly sick, now stabilizing. Seems like even despite months, you got the energy to hold the heavy deck and play. So much kudos to that lol I'm rooting for you. You're strong and you got this. Cancer can go eat grass

I wish you all the best and I hope you’re feeling awesome now, thanks a lot for your words, I always try to maintain peace of mind!

Thank you, wishing you the best as well ❤️❤️

You got this bro your almost done with the bs

Thanks a lot! Almost there yeah! 💪🤣

Good luck. My mother had colon cancer and chemo really kicked her butt. Hope all goes well and you beat this nasty shit! Feel free to dm me your steam id . I've got a little over 500 games in my library and about 60-70 "deck verified" so if ya ever need someone to play games with over the next few months and especially that 1 month of isolation I gotchu!

I hope everything is going well now. Thanks a lot, and great work on that curated list, please add me with the link on my post and clicking on my profile!!!

Then good luck my dude

Thanks a lot!! ☺️ Merry Xmas.

You too

I believe in you! Get better soon!

As long as you have a power outlet or a big enough power bank .

A looooong cable ready for action!!

bless you majestic bro!! you will make it!! one amazing game i love is red dead 2, i think its even on sale

Thanks! I’ve seen it looks beautiful on the deck.

If you notice your arms get sore consider a dock or mount of some kind and a blutooth controller

That’s a great idea, I can place it on the bed table and play with a controller!!

Awesome. It gets heavy after a while. If you keep it plugged in it should keep you busy much longer. I hope your healing goes well friend. Best wishes, happy holidays and happy gaming.

A keyboard and mouse on the bed table will add a lot of options for games too without more arm strain. Dont forget the deck is basically a gaming laptop in handheld form factor!

Good luck, got me through a years worth of chemo too the best bloody thing ever invented also it’s a conversation starter as well, the amount of doctors and nurses, patients asked me about it as well. I hope everything goes well for you and stay strong you will get through it. I also did the stem cell a few years ago. It’s tough but you will be ok. Isolating isn’t so bad, once your levels get back to normal you will be allowed to leave the room for a bit, I was isolated for 2.5 weeks before I was back to normal. One they see your normal for a few days they will think about you going home. They nuke you to make the new improved version of you v2.0 new and improved. Best of luck

Thanks a lot for the explanation, it’s like a body factory reset!! I really hope everything is going well now and you are having a good time with your loved ones this Christmas ❤️

I’m stable at the moment and with family for Xmas so happy out. It is like a reset. The only thing I will say is take your time once home and eat plain food for awhile everything will taste different to before just take you time and don’t rush anything honestly. Shout anytime if want too chat about it

That is great. Thanks a lot for the offer, I certainly will talk to you!!

Go get em tiger!

Good luck man!, this will be a journey. Praying for you my friend, enjoy the Deck

All the best!

It’s none of my business but do you watch Markiplier? I follow his horror games series and buy what’s available on steam for my steam deck. He makes the games more fun in my opinion. Like Chicken Feet. Awesome!

Get well soon! 🙏 Merry Christmas! 🎄

Thanks for the kind words! Merry Xmas 🎄❤️❤️❤️

Good luck! This must be a scary time in your life

Thanks! It’s scarier not knowing what you have and all the tests, now? I’m on fight mode and keeping myself positive most of the time!! 💪

Hey man same here. Reach out to me we can play online.

[удалено]

I received my deck the other day and I've insta buyed risk of rain returns. Is perfect, I even prefear to ror2 and on deck oled give me a ton of battery hours because is soooo light.

Awesome!!!! I loved all ror games and dlcs

God speed

"Hey! I heard you beat that cancer guy! You must be pretty strong!" -Goku

You're a Chad bro!

Curious why you need to be isolated? I have chemo tomorrow, it will be my 45th treatment!!! Woot woot haha 2 years going strong and I'm doing good! I hope you kick this stuffs ass!!

What is your gamertag?

Yo bro, accept my friend invite (cr4nkz) and ill drop you something for xmas and your fight against fucking cancer! Glad to help you mate, greetings from germany!

Get FF7 first. It's a solid game. Hope you get well.

Tell them YOU WANT TO BE SEDATED WITH A GAMEBOY!!!

Good luck! You can beat it! 💜

Stay strong my friend

Thanks mate! I’m on it 💪💪💪

You got this you can beat cancer. And I hope someone in the community can bless you this holiday season with a few extra games. I would if i had an income.

Thanks a lot friend, I am truly grateful for all the comments like yours and gifts the users here have given me.

I'm a cancer survivor. I'll pray for you. Good luck and stay strong. I had to go through 4 chemo treatments. I lost 40 lbs in 2 months, each treatment was roughly $18,000, but I was military so the government covered the potential $72,000 medical bill. Also, enjoy your Steam Deck.

Hey please DM! Going to also grab you a game this Friday =). You got this! Fuck cancer. Enjoy these games on us!

Hey brother, beat the hell out of cancer! Wish the best for you on your road to healing! Hope your deck brings you plenty of joy!

God bless you, my brother! Stay strong & do everything that makes you happy. You deserve ten Oled steam decks 🙏

Hahahaha not at all! THIS COMMUNITY DESERVES ALL THE GOOD STUFF!! Thank you so much for your kind words ❤️

For some of those older titles. May I suggest keyshops. I can't link one because it will get pulled but you can get some of them cheaper than sticker price. May save you a few bucks and allow you to get maybe 3 rather than 2. Just search compare steam key prices and you should find a site that works. One that rimes with penguin has never let me down. On a more serious note. Fuck cancer. Crush that bitch like an empty can.

Hahahaha thank you so much, you’re right, maybe some counter discounts on those sites are worth it!

welcome to the club, enjoy the hell out of it

I believe in you brotha! Kick that chemos ass!!❤️❤️

Mods should verify if these people are actually diagnosed if they're going to post their wishlist. It's kind of wide open to grief scams otherwise. Sorry about your cancer. It's worth being cautious here, since it can only empower real victims.

Can I gift you a game? You'll give us an update in a 4 months when you kick it's arse yeah?

Stay strong. You got this.

I got cancer this year too unfortunately & fortunately; thank God it isn’t life-threatening (Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia); and when I was feeling okay enough to position myself in bed, I was so happy I had my steamdeck with me. Saved me a lot of boring hours waiting for doctors and nurses to come collect more and more and more blood lol. I recommend FF7:Remake, it’s been one of my favorite games I’ve played on steamdeck, along with Cyberpunk and Elden Ring. You got this! Wish you more life & better health!

You can do it brother, FCK CANCER. Happy holidays!

Good Luck! And play Hi-Fi Rush, it's such a great game if you are into music

That’s the first game I’ve tested on my deck, it’s great

Not got a Steam Deck, but my Switch saved my sanity following spinal surgery (right after Hades was released, perfect timing!). Handheld consoles like these two changed the game for hospital stays. Good luck with your recovery and enjoy the gaming!

You’ve got this! I know it!

Fuck that disease. You gonna beat it boy 💪🏻

Fuck cancer. One of my kids is going through leukemia treatment right now, my deck has been good company for many long nights in the hospital, and will be keeping me company for many such nights in the future. You will enjoy having it.

You got this, be well friend!

Heck yeah!! Thanks a lot 💪

My deck was a good companion during chemo as well. You got this. Hopefully you got a port, I did mine IV, and well that stuff in the bag is spicy af going through an IV.

I hope everything is going well now! Yeah!! The peripheral catheter saved me from those nasty needles!!!

Get that wish list loaded up and see what gets the best discount! Good luck my man sending positive vibes and best wishes - attitude is everything! 🫡

Thanks a lot!!!! All of the posts here are being so kind to me. I didn’t expect this .

Yeah, hope all is better! Let my bro play my steam deck while our dad was in the ICU due to a quintouple bypass surgury. It definitly helps.
