It advertises being the easiest way to get into PC gaming and I really hope that’s true and that’s been my biggest selling point along with it’s price tag. I’ve never rly been a pc gamer and find it’s a bit complicated. I barely got the tech skills to install some emulators on my laptop. Comparing the Steam Deck to competitors like the Legion Go and Rouge Alley which have better specs at only a little larger price tag but how user friendly are they? Is the Steam Deck really any easier to use then these competitors?
If all the games you’re gonna play are in Steam and that’s it, it’s very user-friendly. If you want to get into more nitty-gritty things, I’d wager it still is fairly user-friendly, just user-friendly for the more technically-familiar (not even adept) person. Stuff like Emudeck, Decky Loader, and CSS Loader make things unbelievably simple. The community support is easily one of the biggest selling points of the deck over legion go or ally.
