I am considering buying a steam deck since I love playing games but I am often too lazy to sit behind a PC and would just lay down on a couch and play handheld [either streaming from my pc or directly from storage] in the living room near my girlfriend.

The thing is that I have a relatively strong PC and I feel like I would just waste money doing that and I just feel that I am too spoiled at the moment…

Anyone have had the same decision making issue, went for it and is satisfied, or on the other hand regret the buy?

I consider the classic 256 gb version since the price dropped but need to justify it somehow.

Thanks for commenting!

    I’d honestly get the 64GB OG and a 2TB SSD, it’s not hard to do, and would take you 20 minutes with a HDMI/USB 4/USB C dongle and charge passthrough and a cheap enclosure to put the 64GB SSD in to just clone it and with the price of the 64GB OG, it’s about the same price as the 256 is even with the reductions. My friend did mine at launch as a favour but then he also upgraded his to 32GB ram too, but that isn’t really possible or recommended, but he has £12k of equipment to work with and it took him nearly a week, just because he could.
