Heres the thing. If you get a deck, you know that at least steam won’t be gaslighting you to buy another one for a hot minute.
I liked my deck enough that I bought the OLED when it came out to give my old one to my partner. Now we play in bed together side by side. She hadn’t played in years because well, life and being busy.
A deck can (somewhat) replace a PC. A PC could not replace a deck. Its a fundamentally different thing. I am going to buy a banger gaming PC. My deck allows me to play and have fun until I can buy the rig I want instead of the one I can afford.
