You can connect the deck to your tv if you want a "console" experience.
I did that at my friends place: Worked very good. Screen was turned off and connected my xbox controller.
Minor nitpick: If it's connected via a powered dock they should circumvent the battery.
It ain't powerful enough for modern titles sadly. I'm trying to say that there's a space where Valve made steam machine with niceties of SteamOS and power of say PS5 can really thrive.
I think it'll happen soon. Tariffs threw a wrench in everyone's plan but Strix Halo currently exists. Ryzen 395+ is in minipc's now and should give a solid ~PS5 level experience that should come down in price over time as AMD releases successor generations. At least now could be cheaper with Valve putting somethings out with razor thin margins expecting to get return from software sales
