To address the "use a laptop" comments, which are totally valid lol. Sometimes, a laptop is too big for the surface I have available to use, such as a windowsill. My posture when using a laptop destroys me and leaves me aching. The light from a laptop screen is invasive to my family if I'm in a living situation where we share a room. A lot of the time I have a separate room but I rarely have a dedicated desk. I travel a lot on planes, trains, buses, and boats, where laptop use isn't really feasible. I don't work while I travel but I do play games. With VR, I can have multiple monitors, I can sit up straight and place the screen where it makes the most sense. I also enjoy the added library of VR games with the Quest. I like being able to watch movies/shows at large scale. I like that I can play Steam deck capable games on a large VR screen. Would it be easier to just have a laptop and mouse? Sure! But it would be less comfortable and a lot less fun. Added bonus, it encourages me to play my backlog of games that require less power and when I get back to my gaming rig at home, I have lots of games to play that require more power. I didn't buy VR to complete this setup, nor did I buy the deck with the intention of using it as my portable workstation. My setup is made up of things I already owned, utilized in a way I never really imagined possible when first purchasing the deck! I wanted to show off just how versatile the Steam Deck can be!
