Steam deck is "just a PC" as well, which can be turned on to immediately play video games.
Thanks to its reputation, the masses will trust the Steam Machine to do this much.
Valve know what they're doing.
- valesco 1y agoThat machine would be very different from my gaming PC however. I could use it exactly like a console, which is a different use case than a desktop PC.
- badsectoracula 1y agoI have a Steam Deck. All you have to do to use it like a desktop PC is to connect a cheap hub with power delivery, HDMI and USB ports for keyboard and mouse, then boot into KDE Plasma which is a regular desktop environment. Honestly, my SD has seen more use as a stationary PC than a handheld :-P
