I am a offshore worker and I am looking to buy a portable gaming system to keep the sirens at bay. I under stand that the steam deck is cheaper but it suffers in performance compared to the gaming laptops.

Can I access my SSDs that I have all of my movies stored on with a steam deck like I would a laptop?

What type of games work best on the deck?

What are some other advantages of the deck compared to a laptop?

I really want a steam deck I just want to make sure it’s money well spent.

    For casual gaming it’s more comfortable if you trying to relax you can chill in bed or have 1 hour break you can pull it out and play example emulator like Switch games.

    It’s not good when it comes to AAA games and 60fps gaming unless those are smaller games or emulators. You can still play Cyberpunk etc at 30fps low settings.

    Battery will last you around 60-120min depending on how intensive game is and power settings.
