I’ve been considering purchasing a steam deck. My pc is in my office, which limits interaction with the rest of the family if I want to play anything. I’ve tried playing mobile games, but just can’t get use to the controls. Think it’s worth getting one?

I've been able to play a lot more video games thanks to the steamdeck. Something about having to turn on the tv, making sure the controllers are charged, and having a loud console creating more heat in the room just deters me from playing usually. But i've realized I've always been more of a handheld gamer.
