    I don’t know why this small detail was my favorite but it is. Theoretically you can use the xreals and do that with most devices but only the steam deck can do it without any added steps.

    The thing about the steam deck is it opens up pc gaming to places other than in front of your pc. And there’s been next to no opportunity to do that unless you consider cooking your genitals with a gaming laptop to be an enjoyable experience.

    I’ve got a nice tv room that was getting wasted because if I wanted to game I had to sit in my office. I’ve been able to be way more mobile within my house. I can stop a game on the pc and pretty easily restart it on the deck. While that’s not a new thing I do think steam cloud saves are unrivaled in functionality and ease of use.

    If you’re on the fence about the steam deck. Get it. I’d be the first to say it’s not worth it and trust me im a guy that knows how to waste money on stupid shit (case and point I bought xreal airs). But I’ve never regretted the steam deck.
