What does your battlestation look like? PS4/5, XBox, PC or some oddball Chinese retro handheld?
Steamdeck took over most of my gaming. It’s by far the best gaming device ever made imo.
I’m playing on my Steam Deck like I was playing on my Switch 6 years ago. I prefer my indie games on handheld devices, so a good half of my playtime is spent on the Deck.
I have a full gaming rig, but mainly play on my Steamdeck - it’s so much more convenient to just be able to pick it up and play.
What games have you been playing?
Metroidvanias recently - Dead Cells, Blasphemous, Hollow Knight, that kind of thing
I only play on my Steam Deck and/or on my Desktop running Arch(btw)
Desktop Specs: OS: Arch Linux CPU: Intel i7-9700K GPU: Intel Arc A770 Limited Edition RAM: 2x8GB 3600 MHz
Primary is now Steam Deck.
PC is pretty much used for work and installing games to move to the Steam Deck.
Local transfer is a nice feature!
After zero PC gaming in forever I got myself a Steam Deck and have been loving how it performs!
Series X has been my focus but the lack of decent games made me move elsewhere before Starfield drops.
But also have a Miyoo Mini V2, and a jailbroken Switch.
PS5 for me! I’m basic :)
+1 fellow PS5 (& Switch) gamer here. It has to be quick and easy.
I mainly play https://geoguessr.com in a bog standard web browser. Ubuntu. No console or advanced gaming pc rig.
They also have a map quiz game I quite enjoy. It’s mostly about memorizing maps and capitals https://www.geoguessr.com/seterra/en
Yeah, I know. I have the android app on my phone. Currently practicing on african countries. Asia up next.

Oh wow that’s a bold statement. Personally i think the PS3 is better than the PS2 though. The move to online and HD graphics (for the average consumer) was huge. I know it had been a thing for a while, but that’s when it became mainstream
How come you’re such a big fan of the PS5? Is the game selection as good as the PS2?

Ps4, pc and mobile.
Obligatory “Fuck Google” for killing Stadia.
Stadia was great. No monthly fee. Good enough selection of games. If they had put literally any effort into it, they could’ve done amazing.
It was cool of Google to give me my money back for my games.
Sadly I came late to the Stadia party, I originally only bought the controller to use for my PC, but I got far cry 5 as a freebie and I was considering buying some more games, then they announced that it was getting shut down.
Mostly PC (Linux), sometimes Switch. I also have a Raspberry Pi as a retro console emulator for old stuff like the original The Legend of Zelda.
I have my main PC, plus a retro gaming / emulation machine for the living room, and an anbernic RG 351 MP (handheld) that can emulate just about everything up to the N64. All GNU/Linux.
I mostly play steam games, plus Xonotic, Beyond All Reason, and Veloren. I’ve been playing Animal Crossing with my partner lately, and Windwaker on the living room machine.
I just don’t see much value in mainstream consoles these days when you could instead have a proper computer and all the versatility that brings.
I don’t play games with much frequency, but I play on some combination of Steam Deck and a desktop running OpenSUSE Tumbleweed, a Linux distro.
Edits/Changes: Forgot to specify Tumbleweed.
Linux desktop running Manjaro - mostly use Steam Games and Veloren
PC, Steam Deck.
PC for multiplayer titles that require comms, and Steam Deck for everything else.
Steam Deck has been one of my best purchases to use alongside my PC. I have a Switch too, but I don’t use it much when there aren’t new exclusives. But, the Deck having the same ga,e progress as my main PC has led to constant use when I want to play on a handheld.
Same, I use mostly PC for multiplayer games and for more demanding games. I use my Deck to play older games / indies that runs well, but I have a hard time playing games with low fps.
Steam Deck, it’s been great for working through my backlog.
