    I honestly reach for it more than my Xbox or switch. it’s easy to pick up and put down. easy to charge. and stuff runs fine on it.

    It’s not for everybody, but I love my deck.

      I was skeptical at first and I finally gave in two weeks ago and it arrived last week.

      I love my Steam Deck, this seems dumb but I actually use it to stream my ps5 and more intensive PC games. It easier to move around and pick up and put down. I’ve started to play games I bought years ago. Finished Limbo and Inside and playing Bioshock Remastered.

        that’s not dumb at all, it’s a great use for it! I had planned to make mine strictly an emulation device (which it’s amazing for) until I realized how well it handled bigger titles. not perfectly by any stretch, but mostly smooth and playable.

        I had never played any of the fallout games and I’ve had a blast with new Vegas and fallout 4. I’d owned them for years but just never got around to it.

        if only I could stop playing bg3 for long enough to get through some more of my backlog…
