There's a reason we aren't as harsh on the Steam Deck. Actually, a couple. in c/steamdeck@sopuli.xyz

Sales on PSN are appalling compared to Steam as well. Plus you can also get Steam sales on other sites like Fanatical.

Steam also has better remote play, and Steam custom controller profiles with nearly any controller are amazing.

Also nearly no backwards compatibility issues, whereas PS5 will only play/stream limited games from the past.

Steam Deck (LCD: the non-OLED) are on sale. in c/pcgaming@lemmy.ca

I also had the first model. I was shocked that the slightly less weight of the OLED model would be the biggest difference for me.

The screen is very nice compared to the original model, but it was noticeably lighter and easier to hold for extended periods. That alone has helped justify the upgrade for me.

Do they care to explain the pathetically underpowered, slow, and clunky Switch? We'll wait.

PS5 truly is mostly enhanced PS4 games and other re-releases.

I've had PS5 since release. I have played a handful of PS5 games and honestly most of them have felt like slightly enhanced PS4 games. Very few have truly felt "next gen." Even fewer make decent use of unique DualSense features.

I've mostly continued playing tons of PS4 games. PS5 seems kinda meh to me. Also as usual Sony has made a system software design and layout that feels needlessly restrictive and idiotic.

This thing is basically a PS4 Pro Pro. And now the PS5 Pro will be a PS4 Pro Pro Pro.
