    All these people talking up either PC features or Switch formfactors, and no one’s bringing up Steam Deck…

    Highly recommend getting one, then you don’t need to split your library.

      Well I already have a Switch, and Steam Decks are expensive. So, should I spend $20 on a new game, or $600 on a new platform?

        I mean it’s a new “platform” but your library is available in any PC you can log into steam on, so if you get a PC down the road all your games are there lol

        While it’s still expensive, you can get the base model Steam Deck for $400 and put in a $50 512GB SSD off of Amazon. The only reason to buy anything other than the $400 model is if money is no concern and you want the etched screen and a premium case. The SSD swap takes like 5 minutes.

      This is by far my fave feature so far. There is no question, if it’s available on PC I get it on PC
