I’ve been interested in getting a steam deck for a while however I have a great PC that I normally play my games on. To people that have a PC and a steam deck do you think you get your moneys worth if you have both?

    In some ways it’s even better when paired with a desktop gaming PC, as then you can do remote play. You can stream games that might barely run on the Deck with potentially maxed out quality, ray/path tracing, etc. at 60 FPS or higher, and get ridiculously long battery life to boot.

    I wouldn’t necessarily buy a gaming PC just for that, but if you already have one, it allows all the benefits of using your desktop PC, without having to be sitting at your desk.

    If you have a lot of commute time, or you travel, or in general you are a lot outside your house yeah its a great device. I play other games that i never end up playing on my pc becaus i just end up playing PUBG, Fortnite or Battlefield. Now i can play Dirt Rally or Dead Cells anywhere!
