I was on the edge buying the thing and told myself that if I use it 50 hours it’s a reasonable purchase. Now I’m sporting closer to 200h within one year I could not be happier.

Did you have any (self made) goals when buying Steam Deck? Did you achieve those? Or did you buy it and now it’s collecting dust? I’m curious

    Do the kids play with it, if so how old are they? I have a 5-year-old and my steam deck feels like it gets hotter than it should when playing games like Uncharted or red dead 2. My kid being 5 probably wouldn’t play such graphically demanding games but it is still a concern on how hot it can get if left semi-supervised.

      No I meant I play it more since it feels so much harder to post up on the couch even after they’ve gone to bed, mine aren’t there yet to be able to play it on their own

        Ah, I see, yeah, that’s when I use mine the most right now is when I gotta get to the couch and it’s a lazy day where I put Bluey on the TV and play a game for an hour or two.
