These days I primarily play games that are Nintendo IP (Nintendo's couch co-op output is unrivaled and my partner and I play Nintendo games together often) or Sony exclusives (quality output is top-notch). I on-and-off look at Steam and have never been overwhelmingly impressed by the catalog of indie devs and am generally turned off by the over-saturation of lower-end pixel art prevalent in many indie titles. Sure, every so often something like Celeste or Hades comes along, but it's somewhat rare for me to be taken by indie games. An immediate example of an indie game I'm playing with a friend right now, Children of Morta, the pixel art design makes it incredibly hard to see what is going on.
I'm also not willing to shell out $1000+ for a PC and accessories that I don't want nor do I have space for that. The Steam Deck has my attention, but the screen is too low quality for me to pay that much for it; I already lived through that with the Switch. I barely played the Switch handheld and only traveled with it twice. If the Steam Deck has a V2 with a better screen, I'd consider it, but I'd still rather have a tv connected setup as those are way more comfortable to play than a handheld.
Everyone's got preferences and mine are Sony/Nintendo consoles, a preference I've come to over many years and attempts at other things. It just sucks that shit has gotten so expensive again.
