If you’ve been holding off on Cyberpunk 2077, it’s in a really solid state nowadays, and has a pretty dang good main story with lots of roleplaying options, and plays well with a controller.
Terra Nil is a cool relaxing solarpunk strategy/builder game about restoring the environment. Not sure how complete controller support is, but its rated playable for the steam deck (could be hit or miss).
The Mass Effect series supports controller, and they’re pretty fun sci-fi RPG’s with good characters.
Disco Elysium is a more text heavy RPG. I personally bounced off it due to its theme, but it’s pretty unique, worth a shot if you click with it.
I’ve been enjoying Tales of Maj’Eyal lately. It’s a roguelike, though you can set it to give several lives or infinite lives. But I’ve been enjoying just going until I die and then rolling a different build. You usually only die because you get overconfident and I’ll leave figuring out the specifics of that to you :)
It also has over 1100 achievements if you like chasing those.
Tyranny (a different RPG by obsidian) puts you in the role of a fairly high ranking judge working for a brutal expanding empire. You have the option to play a really nasty person if you wish. Not terribly funny though, usually quite a serious vibe.
It’s fairly solid. You get to divine status so you can be a swarm, necromancer, or demon as far as evil goes (technically there’s also devil but that one’s… weirder to get to) and I guess Archon kinda comes off “evil” in that it doesn’t give a shit about anything other than “law”
Edit: forgot to mention the same studio also made WH40k: Rogue Trader and that’s also got plenty of evil options

Anyone have any recommendations? I enjoy rpgs and strategy games. Anything that can be played with a controller is ideal.

Cyberpunk was very good.
Never heard of Tera nil that sounds enjoyable

Turn based rpg- Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous
That seems interesting.
Is the story good? Are there chances to be really evil? And is it ever funny?

Played that way back. It was great.

Have you played Baulder’s gate 3 and expedition 33 yet?
Yeah. They’re both good.
my recommendation is to play them again and save money
YOU’RE NOT MY FINANCIAL ADVISOR!!!
i know. i raise sheep now. like all good financial advisors.
drova forsaken kin should be very controller friendly
