Imagine this situation: I install like 40 games on my Steam Deck, including Skyrim. A couple of months later, I’m on a 12-hour flight for a business trip.“Perfect, time to play Skyrim again!” - I say to myself upon discovering it on my Steam Deck.
But here’s the catch: I have been playing Skyrim on my PC in the meantime. My latest saves are in the cloud, but the Deck doesn’t have them because I haven’t launched the game there recently. And of course, there’s no internet on the plane. Moreover, saves do not sync when the game is installed, the saves of course will apear, when I would launch it while being online.
This could have been avoided if there was a simple “sync all game saves” button in the Deck settings. That way, before leaving, I could just press it once and know everything is up to date, instead of wondering which games are synced and which aren’t.
Does something like this already exist, or is it just wishful thinking on my part?
