Excited and have been reading a ton here and elsewhere, the sale just pushed me into finally getting one.
I have a pretty decent gaming PC so curious to try out remote play. Also really into Starfield currently but have it via Gamepass, but read I can do the xbox cloud gaming merhod which ‘seems’ to work pretty well?

Read rumors about possible new hardware will feel dumb if better model comes out soobish.

Cheers!

    I should be getting on next week.

    My desktop is only slightly more powerful than a steam deck so, I may hardly turn it on anymore.

    In fact it might take over home server responsibilities from my older desktop that’s currently fulfilling that responsibility.

    I look forward to using steam deck in desktop mode for my random work stuff and then just undocking it for play.

    This is really what I want from my phone to be honest. Can’t wait for a legit implementation of that on phones.

    I got mine yesterday, which was great cause then I could play deep rock while gentoo compiled stuff.

    Btw for other gentoo users, you probably know this already but emerge -avuDN && poweroff

    Congrats, I love mine! Haven’t even bothered with remote play because the Steam Deck has been able to run just about everything anyhow.
