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?

    I have young kids, so being able to play anywhere and still be aware of my surroundings, and being able to suspend and then pick up and play again almost immediately has meant I’ve been able to actually play long form singleplayer games. It’s the single best gaming purchase I’ve ever made.

      Me and the wife are planning on kids so it’s probably going to be the first thing I pick up if she ever gets pregnant.
