Excited and have been reading a ton here and elsewhere, the sale just pushed me into finally getting one.
I have a pretty decent gaming PC so curious to try out remote play. Also really into Starfield currently but have it via Gamepass, but read I can do the xbox cloud gaming merhod which 'seems' to work pretty well?

Read rumors about possible new hardware will feel dumb if better model comes out soobish.

Cheers!

Yeah, I'm still playing a fair bit of GamePass on the Deck (Starfield!) I used the method via Microsoft's official support article and it's holding up pretty well.

Thank you I used this method and it worked great!
Appreciate your help

Oh wow thanks didn't even think to see of it was officially something they were looking to support.

Do you know if you can do any mods? Mostly wanted the inventory mod I use on my pc

When using xCloud, you are in fact remotely playing the console version of games. I am not aware of any game that supports modding in that situation.

Yah that make sense, thanks!
