I was wondering how much you are using your Steam Deck? And did the games you play on it change since you bought it?
I find that I used it a lot when I first got it, but my usage has gone down in the mean time. That’s mostly because I play games that are not a great fit for the Steam Deck (strategy, building, etc.) and I prefer to play those on my PC.

My partner bought me one last month, so it’s still new but I don’t think I’ve stopped playing it. I can’t make time to sit at my pc unless I’m working, all my time is spent with the kids or in my workshop. So I can finally play games again.
I’ve been using emulators to replay a ton of games that would be a pain to setup/use normally. Skyrim Fallout and all the old standbys look great too so I barely use anything else
I use it to game when I visit my mom but I don’t use it at home. So it depends on how often I visit my mom :D
I usually play on my commute so between 15 min and 90 min each day depending on whether i play during the whole commute both ways or just a little bit. It’s usually around 60 min each day because the rest is by bus and I don’t always bother to pull it out or I don’t get a place to sit.
almost every day for a year. my gaming pc often collects dust
Currently, no. But I also haven’t opened a game on my PC in months, since that time sadly has to go towards my Master’s thesis. But ever since I got the deck, I have heavily used it. It’s easier to pick up and put down than the same game on PC, so I just do (did) more frequently.
Yes! I like to play on the bed so there’s nothing better. I’m playing forever skies on pc because it freezed the steam deck when I tried to start it but any other game it’s on the deck
Same with me. 90% of my gaming time is in bed after my kiddos have gone down to sleep, so there’s no substitute. I’ve used it almost every day since I got it in December.
I do want to set up game streaming from my desktop, but I just haven’t got around to it yet, mostly since it means I need to set up my WiFi mesh which I’ve been procrastinating.
I injured my right thumb and stopped all games that require a joystick, so zero steam deck for the last 2+ months.
It’s still the best handheld device ever made and I’ll use it for years to come, we are just simply on a break right now.
