I was wondering how much you are using your Steam Deck? And did the games you play on it change since you bought it?

I find that I used it a lot when I first got it, but my usage has gone down in the mean time. That’s mostly because I play games that are not a great fit for the Steam Deck (strategy, building, etc.) and I prefer to play those on my PC.

    Twice a week maybe three times in bed, when my hands hurt too much to play on normal controllers.

    Or my body hurts too much to play at my desk/chair.

    I hate my weak AF 38 year old Fibromyalgia body. 🥹

    Best thing is, I just stream my PC > Deck so technically utilizing my beefy 7950x 7900xtx system.

    WoW Classic Cataclysm is a dumpster fire…but at least I can enjoy it with ConsolePort. 🎮

      30y/o with chronic fibro here too, the OG deck is nice but thinking about getting the OLED because it’s lighter, I use mine primarily for playing OSRS or Elden ring. Also lots of hockey!

      Do you find it’s too heavy for long periods of time?

        So I have a glass etched OG 512 LCD and a limited ED oled because I’m on life crisis #4 abouts.

        The oled definitely feels lighter after handling both. And better WiFi is also nice. 🔋 Life is also +.
