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.

My time and ability to game has led me to almost exclusively play on my steam deck, and I now game a lot more than I've gotten to in a decade.

For the past couple of years (I upgraded to the OLED) I've pretty much only purchased/played games that will play well on the SD.

I like many games that are really only suited to a bigger screen or mouse/keyboard, but not enough to get any of them, because I know I won't be able to play them consistently enough to even remember what was going on since I'd played last.
