Been thinking about getting a steam deck. Talk me in or out of it. I’ve got a desktop, but thinking something handheld would be good when I want to sit on the couch. What are your favorite and least favorite things about your steam deck?

    Favorite things:

    • Steam library available in my hand
    • Impressive capability in a (relatively) compact form factor
    • The smell (you’ll know)

    Least favorite:

    • The urge to spend more time tweaking it than gaming on it (could also be a favorite)
    • Limited SSD sizes (see above: tweaking it)
    • Battery life (but the capabilities!)

    All in all, I had the available cash and it’s been a lot of fun. I’ve definitely wasted more money on less, but I’d get one all over again if I had to.
