I'm joining the discussion late: ARK: Survival Evolved, Minecraft, Civ5 (and I want Civ6), Ticket to Ride, and a whole bunch more. Those are my tops, and what I've played recently.
We've got Ticket to Ride, @Dominica likes that game. You should play her online. Do you have it on Steam?

Played Minecraft PE with the kids, tonight.

@scottalanmiller Yes, I do. I don't know how the steam integration works for online play in that. It would be fun to try, though! Add me as a friend in steam, https://steamcommunity.com/id/KilamonKlmal/.

I don't play either of those. The kids do tons of MC. I've not even seen ARK. I've seen it in pictures and conversations, but have not seen it played, that is.

I finally started the download of the PC FFX/X-2 last night. Should be ready by the time I get home!

I'm really liking my Steam Controller. It works for 90% of games. I'm even playing Overwatch, a non-Steam game, with it. Not as nice or as accurate as a keyboard and mouse but usable enough to be competitive.

We use ours continuously. We have some four player games and it would be nice to be able to game as a family. Almost never would we play four player, but three player quite often.

Do those games have to be Steam Controller compatible? Or do you just map them depending on the game?

Just map them. We use them for tons of games that are not in Steam. Don't even have to run them through Steam. You can use the controllers to just use the desktop, too.

Anyone played with the Steam Link yet? Wondering what to expect.

I haven't. I was tempted to pick one up over the weekend but some of the reviews have been... meh. It sounds like In-home steaming isn't up to snuff quite yet.

That's too bad. I'll be testing it over the summer, so we will see.

Please let us know how it goes. Apparently the latency made the game seem slow and there was significant input lag. One of the reviewers even mentioned their home/office setups was 1Gbe with the PC and Link sitting next to each other on the same switch.
