What’s your point?

Just find it funny that some people here probably spend more time tweaking their deck and upgrading to absurd amounts of storage (and then play vampire survivors, probably)

It’s capable of what it is capable of down to a very specific specification. Any complaints past that are dumb.

It’s like asking why your Kia Soul can’t traverse rough terrain, but then realizing it’s A KIA SOUL.

OP’s observation is pretty on point, I would say.

This is a daily ritual of mine. I check for system updates, then decky updates, then plugin updates, then for new plugins. Then I check animation changer for new animations(usually least excited by these these days), then audio loader, then css loader.

I don’t have a problem.

I went from this to just turning on the steam deck and playing whatever I left going last time (most recently Diablo 4).

My update run through happens every few weeks instead now

Not my case, fortunately. Yes, I’ve got the official dock. Yes, I’ve moved from 512 to 1tb microSD. Yes I’ve pushed the 64gb ssd to 256 and today 1tb, but that’s it. No screen protectors, skins, case, controllers, power banks.

I’ll admit that I don’t like screen protectors and skins, already have a badass power bank and multiple gamepads lol… plus for a limited amount of things I’ve got a 3d printer, so that’s another way around the issue.

Hmm I haven’t spent that much on accessories, but considering most of the steam games I’ve bought have been on sale for low prices, it probably still works out that I’ve spent more on the accessories overall…

For some reason, spending 50€ for a new controller feels cheaper than buying a 50€ game.

I spent about the first two weeks customizing it, but I’ve settled in and use it for what it is. It’s a great couch gamer and the capabilities to play games that should punch way above its level are impressive.
