Same. I used to play a number of games, and even paid for a few, but the gems are just too hard to find these days.
So now I pretty much never play games on my phone, which does a few things:
So now I mostly use my phone for:
I have a Switch and Steam Deck, and quality game selection is much better there anyway.
Inb4 Gaben announces the SteamPhone
That could honestly be cool. If he could get calls and texts to work on SteamOS, I'd probably buy it.
I would bet they add steam phone to the steam deck instead. Would be something new and with everyone just having wireless earbuds it could work.
Yeah, but then your buds die, and you're either the schmuck holding a steamdeck to the side of gheir head, or the asshole holding their steamdeck an inch in front of their face with their GP on speaker explaining in grim detail the colour of the fluid seeping from their piles....
You can plug in your buds case to charge on your steam deck. I don't know anyone who regularly encounters that issue though. That's like saying your phone can die mid call and then you won't be able to make calls. Like sure, it's happened to people but by in large everyone always has theirs charged and we didn't NOT make wireless phones popular because of this one specific scenario.
Don't have a steamdeck, I did know you can charge stuff off it though. Idk about you, but I often forget to charge my buds, and forget things like my external battery or cables(or the buds themselves) at home as I run out the door.
I wasn't saying that these scenarios would be a daily occurrence, but I can definitely remember enough times that I'd have to count on both hands I've seen someone making a call on the bus with a phablet or tablet. And maybe where you live people have enough respect for the people around them, but every city I've ever lived there's someone talking really loud on speaker about something they really shouldn't be at least once a month that I personally encounter.
