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.

    Got the original not long after launch. Upgraded to OLED right around when it launched. I have some times when I don’t play it, but not often. Recently I have even been playing some RTS games since I got the controls working fairly effectively. Some of the fun for me with the Deck is customizing the controls to make a game work that otherwise wouldn’t. The Steam controller settings are in my opinion probably the most important feature that makes this work so well.

    Many games I used to play on my Playstation I am now instead playing them natively on Deck. It’s comfortable. I love handheld.

    The game I’ve played most overall is American Truck Simulator. Also Vampite Survivor, tons of Emulation Station, Metal Gear Solid master collecetion, and more recently Halo MCC, and Warhammer games like Dawn of War 1, Space Marine, and Inquisitor.

    Apparently I played over 75 hours in May. PlayTime Decky plugin.

      I really wish they’d release a steam controller 2, now that they’ve learned a bit more, and now that people are embracing the control scheme.
