    I still have mine too, but I never played too much with it because I just can’t do the ‘play on the couch’ thing or whatever. I was always a keyboard+mouse person. Playing on the steam deck does work for me somehow tho.

      I also have a pair of underused Steam Controllers, and a Steam Link to go with them. Turns out I just don’t care about gaming on my TV.

        Yeah. Not sure what it is. It somehow feels more laggy, and for some games I struggle to read what’s on the screen sometimes. Plus there’s obviously other family members that want to use the TV most of the time. The steam deck really has been the only way I still do any gaming.

      Makes sense. I’m a console gamer for much the same reason: I first started playing when my Dad let me play on his A2600. Must’ve been around 7 years old or so.

      That said, I’ve certainly played k&m for a few years when I played WoW. There was a bit of a difference for me when I had to reach farther for an Fn key or the like, so in that sense controllers just have a slight edge over k&m.
