two quick questions about the steam deck. I'm thinking of getting one because I don't have a windows PC, but I want to play age of empires (2 definitive addition and 4) Skyrim with mods, and fallout 4 + other old PC games. I'd play all of them docked to a computer screen with a keyboard and mouse. is this a good idea?They seem cheaper than a gamer laptop, and I have a ps5/switch for most gaming (and my main computers are macs). Or is a gamer laptop a better choice?

So the deals thread led me here. If I want a the ultimate emulating machine for gamecube and below (so also ps2) I'm assuming this is the machine? I want to be able to play the Zelda's Nintendo won't port over, Rogue squadron, the good bond games like Agent under fire and Everything is nothing, SSX, that sort of thing. Size wise, it's a little bigger than a Wii U touchpad right? And it's easy enough to just plug this into a tv or monitor and then use a PS4/5/8 bit controller for those games right?) For first party I'll still buy them on switch/PS5 when I can, but for everything else i've described does, this sound about right? And I'm assuming the cheapest version plus a big micro sd card will serve my needs well enough? (I'm talking 50 old games or so tops, plus things on steam here and there that peek my interest).

Ceramics posted:The main thing I use my deck for is playing ps2 and GC games, sometimes docked, and it works magnificently. So basically, because I haven't been paying attention this sounds like it's more or less the console of my dreams. Portable, has all the old games I love/wanted to play, plus it can play new games, plus it can be docked. Got it.

is Starfield coming to the deck? I'm tempted to get it for that and gamecube emulation.

So how good is the deck for Ps2 Gamecube and below emulation? Can this play star field and age of empires 4? Looks like diablo 4 runs on it. Because if this is basically a better switch in terms of I can dock it and connect a keyboard/controller mouse, I may just have to get this.... the new OLED one just looks super sick, and since I have a monitor at my girlfriends place, i could see this being the perfect/game on the couch with her or in my office at her house and then bring it home to my place when I'm there during the week.

Can you play black ops 2 on the steam deck? I’ve been wanting to play old school zombie maps and two of them are DLC only on 2. I know I can play black ops 4 on my PS5 zombies, but on my growing list of reasons to get a deck, zombies is another strong justification.
