Valve giving a case with the product rather than a dock is genius. They know most of the player base is going to use it to play the library they have already cumulated over the years, just on the go this time. Having a dock as an optional purchase is perfect.

Just got the steam deck and I'm loving it so far. Now when I'm traveling for work instead of lugging a twenty pound bag with my laptop and accessories I just put this in my suitcase, and the relatively hard case it comes with puts my mind at ease. Not sure if I'll ever buy a dock for it, since I do already have a gaming laptop if I want to play something on a bigger screen, but it's cool to be able to if I need it.

Hey I just wanted to add to the question asked about the offline capability of games on steam deck. There are single player games that require an internet connection, but usually those are games with 3rd party launchers like EA and Rockstar. In the case of RDR2 it requires an internet connection when starting the game then I could disconnect and remain offline while playing without issue. even suspend the game and put the deck to sleep and play it later.

For me, I really want Linux to be taken seriously so I personally don't consider running Windows at this time. And everything that I realistically want to play is all playable on SteamOS.
@RichardServello Жыл бұрын
@@FunkyHQYT I use linux for work so I really don't care about what I'm using for fun. SteamOS is basically a console experience without all the Windows BS and it handles perfectly with a controller. As a gaming OS it's just perfect. I've actually considered picking up a 6800h miniPC to use as a console in the living room with SteamOS installed. Only issue is I don't have an AMD GPU...so it would end up being pretty expensive if I wanted to upgrade. Tho I think for living room gaming I could get away with just the base system.
@FunkyHQYT Жыл бұрын
I actually just upgraded my platform in my main PC, so I have a 3700X and all the hardware left from my old system. It's mini ITX, and I'm looking to do what you're talking about, making a console out of it. I picked up a Radeon VII for $125 so I'm planning on using that. I just haven't decided if I want to use HoloISO or boot into Windows 11 and just have big picture mode launch automatically. That would help with some compatibility, but I'm also interested in going all Linux on that too! And I'm going to make a video about it!
@RichardServello Жыл бұрын
@@FunkyHQYT I considered the big picture mode gimmick, but the reality is, it's not just the UI that works better. It's the unified updates, it's the sleep/wake function, it's the base tuning that is just fantastic. I can't wait for an official launch of SteamOS for desktop. Even if it only supports AMD still.
