Getting ready for my SD arriving… coming from switch I can’t believe I just got all these titles for 19 euros! 🤯 I think I’m gonna like steam 😍

Dishonoured 2 was 2.99! Half-Life 2 was 0.97€!

WTF buying a steam deck is actually going to SAVE me money 😅

    Steam games always x10 -x100 cheap vs Switch games. This is why u need to buy ONLY switch exclusives such as Animal Crossing, Zelda, Triangle Strategy, Mario, Pokemon, Picachu stuff. Otherwise - steam deck >>>> any bullshit overprice “gaming” PC 9999$. Game console u can take where ever in a pocket more acceptable in time/per day perspective. RGBT coffin can never take, unhandy, have 2 wait load, blue screen of windows all the time, annoying.

    You’ll learn very quickly padawan, that you’ll find yourself spending quite a bit on sales. One sale you may buy only two games but check your game list to realize you bought ten.

    Gaben be with you.

    The Switch tax is ROUGH. I basically only have mine for first party games and the rest is either on Steam or PS5.

    For tips, try using GG.deals to keep track of what games is on deal and where to get it. They’ve come handy for me, and stick to official key sellers like Greenmangaming, Humble, and Fanatical.

    I have over a hundred free games on Epic Games Store. Humble Bundles are a thing. There’s good free to play titles. There certainly is no lack of games on PC, even if you’re broke - as long as you have hardware to run them.

    Shouldn’t half-wife be $60 since they just released it on steamdeck?

    Nintendo, Sony, and Microsoft do that. For example Donkey Kong country tropical freeze. They raise the price from $20 back up to 60 when they put it on the Switch.
