Hi,

I never owned a handheld, however now I’m thinking about to buy a steam deck. Since many days I’m constantly watching YT reviews and I already feel in love with it.

My only concern is: Is playing epic games like Baldurs Gate 3 or Last of Us not loosing something by the small screen - in comparison to playing the games on a big TV?

Is it not like watching Mission Impossible on the smartphone compared to watching it in cinema?

How do you SD owners feel about that?

    Being somewhat time constrained, the deck actually makes it possible for me to play larger story based games without feeling the need to play for 2-4 hours at a time.

    I can play for half an hour or an hour, put it to sleep and just pick it back up later from where I left off. Still an immersive experience too.

    All you really lose is graphical fidelity and performance, but that’s traded for convenience.
