As someone who almost entirely emulates their games with the occasional pirated PC game, I’ve now spent about $150 on Steam games in the first month I’ve had my Deck. I can only imagine the bank they’re making off of people who are already used to buying their games. I’m officially ensnared. I haven’t been this excited about gaming since the original Xbox came out 21 years ago.
I feel you. I just got my steam deck today and I’ve purchased more games (around $30-$50 on sale games) than I ever have in my life. And I feel good doing so! I’m finally not pirating, I have my game saves forever in the cloud, and my achievements can be seen to everyone!
