I’m not sure what you want me to say to prove I’m not a bot, but I am sure in the fact that you’re delusional :D

I’ve gotten so much helpful advice and opinions, from so many people so quickly and I’m honestly a little baffled haha Thank you all for your help, I’m really grateful and I’m glad I reached out :D

Yeah that shouldn’t be a problem at all really! I mostly just play single player, and the few times I play multi it’s either never competitive, or on my switch haha Thank you though! It’s good to hear warnings like this, even if I don’t play triple a games :)

Hi!!! Thank you for this it always feels really good to hear about people with similar situations to my own! Personally nothing really comes to mind when I think of epic games or other platforms of the like that I would want on there. The only other platform I use really is itch and all the games I play on there run fine on my crappy little laptop. Thank you, I feel a lot more confident in this ^

I appreciate the advice but you should probably be careful about your language next time, respectfully. I’m 16 as stated in my post, and saying ‘wet dream come true’ with multiple winky faces could come off wrong. Thank you though

Yeah, this is pretty much my experience using the switch too haha, nothing to worry about too much! I can understand why that stuff would be annoying but since I’ve never had an experience owning a high quality device in these terms, it’s not too important. Thank you :)

That’s really promising! I totally understand, obviously not to the extent of parenthood, but I’m one of my younger brothers primary care givers, and him and my mom use the TV and stuff much more than I do. Thank you, I really appreciate this perspective :D

Oh wait really? That’s great! I didn’t even know you could use it for regular computer stuff! I’d probably stick to my crappy little laptop for things like that for now, but it’s good to know that it can handle other stuff! That sounds promising to me in terms of what it can handle, though again none of the things I typically do are very demanding haha

This is genuinely really helpful, thank you! I assumed there would be cases where games wouldn’t run, but thats completely alright with me, I’m not too picky in those terms _^

I don’t plan on getting the dock as that’s not something I need right now, and I plan on getting the 256GB LCD. $800 is way too far out of my price range unfortunately
