I’ve been on the fence for a while thinking about getting myself a steam deck. I got a great gaming computer and I’m wondering if it can possible accompany it in some way, or is it just the excitement of getting new tech kicking in.
What do you do with your steam deck? What makes you glad that you got it?
It’s definitely best as a companion to a full gaming pc. You get to play games when you are travelling, staying over somewhere else, or just want to hang out on the couch whith your partner while they watch something on TV. The suspend-resume feature is also amazing.
It can do a lot, I love it for what it is but it also has limitations. Games are just better on a larger, higher refresh screen if you have the option (I’m particularly picky about tight fov settings). Also some games are just easier with keyboard and mouse. Slower, more casual games you can fully enjoy on the steam deck.
So the pc is not going away but the sd is a great accessory in a sense.
