I dislike “spend money to save money” logic, but I’m gonna be honest, the Steam Deck was really transformative to me in that regard.
The fact games suspend and come back immediately, and that I can carry it to bed, to the sofa with my wife, and so on, means I actually finish games. Hell, sometimes I’ll be watching TV and playing at the same time, but the game does get played. It’s a backlog destroyer.
