  • I have my go-to games that I periodically return to for short gaming sessions or speedrunning, like GTA V, Witcher 3, all Half-Life games, etc. So those games have always to be installed without the option to uninstall them. Add 1-2 current AAA games to that I’m playing simultaneously plus couple of more recent emulated games like BotW or TotK, and your 512GB drive is pretty much full. In my case, 1TB may be sufficient. But if I go through the trouble of upgrading my storage anyway, why not put a 2TB drive inside, just to be sure.





  • In the Steam Deck, with SteamOS, you can quick suspend your game by pressing the power button, like on the Switch. And then you can return to that game by quick resuming it. You just press the power button, and you’re straight back into the game where you left off. This is the only way it should be handled on a handheld gaming device. On Windows, the experience is just terrible. Manually save the game, quick the game, put your device stand by. Then, wake up your device from stand by, launch the game, load the save game. This is just an unpleasant experience, therefore a Windows based handheld is just a terrible experience.
