Comment on Steam Deck game library now 29% larger than that of Nintendo Switch
Zoot@reddthat.com 4 months agoYou say that, but I can keep my deck in docked/gaming mode, and my son who’s only 7 has been playing away it like its a switch.
I think people just like to make excuses for their spending habits, which isn’t wrong at all. It just becomes disheartening when you say such blatantly wrong things.

I own both a switch and deck and have used them for years. They simply aren’t the same re: usability.

Generally speaking you’re either playing docked, or sitting down. Not typically both, but I know what you mean. Even then though, any of the games he plays just automatically readjust the resolution to handheld mode and works just fine. Then when you plug it back in, it knows to stop using the steam as monitor 1 and switches the output to the TV.
Not sure how you’re doing it, but its worked fine for me.

What? Switch users constantly swap between handheld and docked. That’s one the major draws. The steam deck simply can’t do that seamlessly.

What? Didn’t realize it was such a draw, but irregardless as I said, you just unplug the screen. Its as easy as that with a hub, just like a switch. I do it daily.
