The Steam Deck isn't just a great way to play games on the go; it helped restore our excitement about games in general.
When I got my acceptance letter for my four-year university in 2021, I was as excited as I was terrified. As determined as I was to get my degree, I knew I couldn’t go to a new school unprepared, whether that’s in terms of mentality or materials. In an effort to provide my own sense of security I went ahead and decided to treat myself to a new laptop, one that could also be used for gaming. I’d always wanted one and figured that, after I finished up my work, I could play some games on it.
As I said before, it is hard to play where I work.When I see my laptop, I think of it like a Swiss army knife. It’s flexible, it can do so many things, and in a pinch you’ll be glad you got it; since it’s meant for convenience above all else, though, it becomes a jack of all trades but a master of none. Meanwhile the Steam Deck is dedicated purely to games. It sounds silly, but my laptop is where I’ve written plenty of creative essays and articles .
For the most part, though, I use my Steam Deck with the emulators being the only external addition. Valve created their own operating system for the Steam Deck called SteamOS, which is essentially a skin of Linux. It’s such a simple operating system to use, with a sleek design that feels cool to use. Maybe I’m just easy to impress, but no one can deny the absolutely stunning OLED display.
