[Discussion] How has the Steam Deck changed your habits with playing video games? (sopuli.xyz)

Do you play more than before you got your deck?

Do you play the same kinds of games, or do you play different types of games now?

Do you still play at the same times or places, or have those changed?

Are there any other significant changes to your playing habits?

I’ve never felt any need to use it. It doesn’t do anything my daily driver doesn’t except be a handheld console, and I don’t go anyplace where portability is needed. I bought it because it was a cool new tech thing, but I’ve never found a use for it.

Honestly I'm kind of in the same boat. Most things I want to play usually are things better done with m+k or otherwise intensive games that won't play well on the deck. But my partner loves it and has cleared multiple 100+ hour RPGs with it, and that alone was worth the price of admission.
