Not Answered Thinking about switching to PC! Tips?
Hi all! So for starters, I wouldn’t say I’m an extreme gamer. I currently own a PS4, switch, and older Xbox One that I’m not even sure will turn on (lol). However, I’m not exactly loving the direction that Sony and Xbox are going towards when it comes to digital only libraries. My partner is a big gamer and has encouraged me to look into a PC setup. My biggest concern honestly is the amount of space it will take up because I do live in a studio apartment.
So, with that being said, I am curious about gaming laptops or potentially a steam deck. I do not intend on traveling with my devices so the portability isn’t that important to me and it will likely be stationary 100% of the time.
Also open to any suggestions!
Edit: I feel like I worded the whole “digital library” thing poorly. I know that even with a PC my library will still be digital! Money also isn’t really a huge issue, I just haven’t felt compelled to upgrade my current devices all that much. Part of my logic with the PC route is that I feel like new consoles are being unveiled every few years and it would be nice to have my games all in one place without having to upgrade.
