Clickbait cringe video or no: this is my honest take also. Only reason I don't own a steamdeck right now is I'm still convinced there's going to be a Steamdeck 2 sooner rather than later. My PS4 basically just sat for the past year and a half gathering Dust while I've been shifting back and forth between my PC's depending on whether or not I want to play on my TV or my desk after work is done. Only reason I ever booted the ps4 up in the past two years was to play god of war ragnarok and that just hit PC also along with the valhalla DLC i've been wanting to try.

Steam Deck has all the benefits of portability that the switch has combined with even more ways to play on your TV since you can use either a dock or the cloud saves features to swap back and forth almost seamlessly. Also: 3 cheers for piracy and emulation if you want nintendo content also.

Consoles are dead to me. I'm PC exclusive for the foreseeable future.

Same vibes here. I actually started having issues with my TV gaming PC where it would crash under load so started using moonlight/sunshine to stream over my LAN. The results were so much better than expected that I bought a cheap tablet off aliexperess that I use to game around the house and my backyard like a giant switch/deck, is great.
