    Man, are you me? I impulse bought the same model (bar the dock) exactly a week ago. Everything you said in this video is what I told my friends last Saturday... It feels like a glitch in the matrix. Anyhoo, enjoy the deck. Hands down the best gadget I've ever bought. Hope you have the same experience! Highly recommend Hades 2, if you haven't checked it out. I swear, it feels like it was made for the deck!

      Lolz, I was just fighting off the feeling to pull the trigger on the 1tb OLED. Because I'm getting that itch, had my deck for about a year and a half and I am thoroughly tempted. But everybody keeps saying no, just wait it out till the Deck successor is announced in about a year or so! And I swear i'm trying but its so hard and its still in my cart! Think calming thoughts think calm thoughts!!!

    I bought the Steam Deck OLED when it dropped. It felt so good in hand. I was surprised at how well it performed. Unfortunately it did not play a lot of my library. I returned it and purchased the ROG Ally Z1 Extreme. It was an incredible experience. I know my way around windows so it was a breeze. I was shocked when it fried my 1 TB Micro SD card... The return window was still open so I returned it and purchased the Lenovo Legion Go. This Big boy is perfection for me. I know it might not be everyone's cup of tea but it does absolutely everything I need it to do and no little 7" screen. Its a fantastic time to be a gamer with so many options for everyone.

    lol I love how as dudes, we tend to walk similar paths. New tech for dudes is like blood in the water for sharks lol. I ordered one about 3 days ago. I watched hours and hours of videos with reviews and experiences. I’m an older guy that has a serious PC and a PS5. Still, I identified a use for the steam deck and am looking forward to seeing what’s up.

      @@tonydethpsnandxboxlive9434 it arrived. I have Alien: Isolation, Dying Light, Doom: Eternal, Cyberpunk 2077, and 2 others installed. So far…well beyond my expectations. The games run way better than I thought, but it’s the ease of use that puts a smile on my face. Comfort and ease of a console, portability of a Switch, but with PC-like power. I am happy lol.

    Nice purchase, I hope you enjoy it! I bought my steamdeck a while back and I feel like it was a mistake. I'm mostly a PC gamer but I also played with my kids on the nintendo switch. So when I got the steamdeck I quickly realized that although games run fine, most of the games I played run at 30 or 40 FPS which compared to my laptop which runs at 90-120 FPS... it feels like a huge downgrade.
    I know, it's a simple handheld device but for some reason I felt different when I used to play on my PS1 on the CRT TV and then the PS Vita came out... the games and screen felt sooooo much better than the TV...
    I guess I'm getting old (and by old I mean I have enough money to get a good PC and monitor to notice the difference when I have an inferior product in my hands)

    • @PhattyPattyMatty

    @umbralveritas หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    Hey man just so you know, there's an option in the steam deck settings that you can swap the a/b to the way nintendo did it, and I chose this option since the only other "controller" type or handheld thing I use is the switch so... but yeah! not an issue if you want to swap it to the nintendo layout for those specific buttons!
    Oh also I just got my steam deck about 2 weeks ago myself, along the same lines of thinking xD and I, too have a fine gaming pc + switch but don't like nintendo games all that much aside from Zelda franchise. so yeah, same boat! I'm loving it so far, honestly so many things to do with it that I'm still discovering new things everyday and hardly even spend the amount of time gaming as I want to cuz of how much I'm playing around with other things haha

    I personally regret buying the steamdeack out of fomo. Honestly have no real use for it outside of house. My ayn odin device is much more smaller and easy to play with than the deck. Easy to hid my odin in lunch bag. The steamdeck while much more powerful and x86 base, its not as convenient as a android base handheld.
