I lost over 1000 hours on it alone. Currently doing a train world with crazy high resource cost. 100 hours on this one and I just started manufacturing blue science. I’m going to get my ass fired at some point.
I played like 30m of the demo and didn’t like it at all…then later made the huge mistake of giving the demo another go. Spent a couple dozen hours on just the demo. I’m afraid of getting the full game.
One day I asked, “hmm, I wonder how Civ VI would run on the steam deck.” And the answer is too fucking well. Perfect for track pad and touch. Can’t stop playing it.
Steamdeck is for me everything even new ones like Armored Core, Cyberpunk etc… and indies and even old ones like half life. Everything possible through proton.
Sure, you can play games like Cyberpunk on a Steam Deck! Absolutely true. I just prefer playing more demanding games at higher settings and framerates.
If Steam’s built in remote play doesn’t quite meet performance needs then look into Moonlight. That software, with some help from Tailscale, lets me stream Yuzu from home to my deck at work, and I cannot perceive the input lag though I’m no snob.
Its really great! really good display, good battery, good customizability and freedom. It is even pretty cheap for the steam decks performance.
It’s a fantastic backlog killer. Main PC for new titles, steam deck for indies and patient gamer style games.
I got over 600 game and still play the same 5. I’m just able to do it comfortably at work now.
I try to keep it to one longer game, and one shorter game at a time. Right now that’s STALKER Gamma and Signalis, with Signalis on the Steam Deck.
Speaking of, Signalis is fucking amazing, fantastic horror for anyone new to the genre or fans of Silent Hill 2.
I made the mistake of getting addicted to Factorio, Oxygen Not Included, and Noita. I should have just started doing coke instead.
Fucking Factorio. Tried that shit years ago for 2 minutes and never touched it again.
Not because I didn’t like it, of course. I stopped because I knew if I played any longer I’d have to drop out.

Yep, fucking terrifying.

That’s genuinely dangerous. You cant escape the ‘one more turn’
I thought I could play for 30 minutes this morning while drinking my coffee and was late to work rip
I tried to warn you, lol

I like to stream from my pc to the deck when I’m feeling like escaping the desk.
Fair! Haven’t done that yet.
