Clearly game journos and I are playing different games because things are great so long as you drop AAA (garbage) and multiplayer FPS (cheating).

GPU prices are a bit stupid but I have been playing/buying with a new rule lately and it's great: if it doesn't play well on the Steam Deck, I just don't buy it. Problem solved.

It's so rare that a game that even needs a better card comes up it'd be hard to justify a new card even if prices were normal. I feel like I play maybe one game a year that makes me consider upgrading.
