Which would you choose and why?
I love my gaming pc and would miss it, but I would choose my steam deck. Something about the form factor combined with the flexibility of a pc makes playing games so much fun.
Something I didn’t expect is that older games that would be difficult for me to enjoy because of dated graphics on desktop have been some of my best gaming experiences on deck - my best gaming experience this last year? playing through the dark forces remaster, a game I would have never gotten into on pc.
Update after reading responses:
I love the diversity of views here!
I didn’t expect how many people would choose their pc over the deck given the subreddit. Echo chambers are boring so I’m actually pleasantly surprised. I think this really just goes to show how people’s priorities differ depending on what makes them feel immersed and engaged playing a game.
