For context, the account of the girl who posted this consists mainly of content about cozy games that would definitely be easier to run on a steam deck. However, I feel like this commenter would’ve acted much more tame if the poster of this video was male. It just feels like a jab and honestly made me feel shitty for enjoying stardew as much as I do, even though I play many other ‘heavier’ games that I assume this commenter is referring to.
Lol the commenters are nothing but contrarians. Disagreeing for the sake of disagreeing. Guys like that are so obnoxious.
I have a steam deck and they have no idea what they’re talking about. Hoo boy, is stardew valley the only indie or cozy game they know? (Which they also erroneously seem to think is the type of game a steam deck can run?) Embarrassing.
And so what if someone gets a steam deck to ONLY play stardew valley? It’s a great game! Maybe people wanna play games during their commute, or in bed, orrrrrrr on the toilet (no judgement, I couldn’t though).
Maybe they’re just jealous that they either don’t have a steam deck or don’t know how to use one properly, or they sucked at SDV and are now salty about it so they gotta go yuck everyone else’s yum. I dunno.
first comment is sexist, second comment is a valid concern, third is a flat out lie because you can absolutely mod your games on steamdeck
source: I modded my games on steam deck
Cringe and bs. Top 100 steamdeck games: https://store.steampowered.com/sale/decktop100. Looks like quite a nice mix of genres.
Also portability is nice. Sitting at the desk all day breaks my back. If I had a steamdeck I would’ve gotten through so much more of my library.
Bruh. The Steam Deck plays more than StarDew Valley. It was made by a man who plays godamn Dota and wanted it to play everything else. I know they’re saying that because it’s a woman saying it, but it’s still just wrong. If the Steam Deck isn’t your thing there is so many more great alternatives.

The number one most played game on Steam Deck is a dating sim. It’s the most casual game out there. I don’t know any REAL gamers who played BG3. GTAV? RDR2? Skyrim? Also not real games. IDK who the devs even make these games for. Nobody wants them except some dumb females, amirite? 🙄😢☹️
It’s a cute tiktok being taken too seriously by weirdos
I own both a good gaming PC and a SD. The Deck can easily run most things my PC can. This commenter doesn’t know shit
Glossing over the fact that they are wrong for a sec, they are definately the type of person that likes to “break it to you”.
Literally just sexism
you can get like 3 hours of doom eternal playtime out of the steam deck at 60fps if that’s not serious gaming I don’t know what is
Shame on them. I can play stardew valley and bg3 in bed.
yes because as we all know the more pixels and raytraces and graphics^(tm) a game has the better it is /s
can male gamers stop being sexist for just like 5 seconds plsss
I’ve played Elden ring and other “complex” games in bed on ps5 it would honestly be no different to playing a steam deck or switch in bed imo. Just sounds like another way to make a dig at women. Some men just like to bring women down.
I wondar what these sorts of people (let’s be honest, these sorts of guys) count as ”real games”
Is it thematics? Is Farming Simulator not a ”real game” either?
Are competitive games the only ”real” ones? Or is it just about the gubs and weapons? I’d like an extensive report on this. Where’s does a game start counting as real?
It’s such a weird thing to gatekeep 🤦🏻♀️
Even if she was only playing Stardew, the steamdeck is geniuenly powerful enough to run almost all games including triple A games etc. So that comment is completely unnecessary??
i hate how heavy people are on desktop computers.
im literally gonna buy myself an xbox soon. consoles are comfier, regardless of what games you play.
edit for context: i love computers myself but their price is often not worth it
The funny thing is for me atleast, I have a pc, but I never use it for gaming. Basically only use it to watch YouTube. And I’ll use my steamdeck for pc games and then my assortment of other consoles for other games. I just don’t enjoy gaming on my PC.
But my favorite consoles of all time that I still play quite often are the game boy advance and the ps vita, so I’ve always just preferred handheld consoles.
Did the commentor see the steam deck before ? This can play cyberpunk if its on a good power plan what tf is he on about lol
I’m gonna be so fr, I like my big chunky pc and I like it being separate from my bed,, idk, feels cozy
But yeah the comments are a bit fucked
Haters gonna hater. Play the game that you enjoy and don’t let anyone take that away from you
ngl wanting to play games in bed is the main reason I want a steam deck
Anime pfp: opinion invalid
He’s being a bit sexist but has a point, the Steam Deck isn’t some miracle machine; it already struggles with current Gen games and that won’t be getting any better as time moves forward, so if you want to play the newest games you’re better off investing into building a super high end pc, you really need to know how to work homebrew, travel a lot or just have a trash pc for it to be an upgrade
Or use it as a work pc or a portable computer you can take to a friend’s house, I want to get one for that
Also having your games only on pc is a good motivator to help you get out of bed
Don’t let shitheads like that bring you down. There’s no shame in enjoying different genres that some incel loser thinks isn’t a “real game.” Also they’re incel losers, their opinions hold absolutely no weight… really they hold negative weight, so if they insult something you like or do then you’re probably on the right track and should just double down on it.
The list of games compatible with Steam Deck just proves that the top comment and the 17.3K dumbasses that agreed don’t even know what Steam Deck is. You can also mod your games on SD, plenty of guides for mods outside of Workshop. People will be dumb and neglect basic search just to disagree with the content of someone who has a specific public in mind. They are just miserable.
Idk what those turds are on about. I know more men who love Stardew Valley than women. And just as well because it’s a nice game!
I have a gaming laptop because I cannot sit comfortably at a desk and play a game on a PC.
I feel like a gaming laptop is a good middle ground between the versatility of a PC and the portability of a steam deck
I have many guy friends who play the shit out of Stardew and would never use it as a way diss on women.
SDV… Cozy… Tell that to my face after you mastered the Skull Cave. 😈

My boyfriend and I have a steam deck – you can play any game on it, use it like a computer, and copy games (if you know a thing or two) and play different console based games on it.
It’s so much better than a stand alone console and you can use a dock to use it on any screen.
if all you do is use your pc to game, sure, switch to a steam deck if that works for you.
this deadass feels like the no you’re not a gamer copypasta
Bro’s missing out. I’m playing sdv on my deck right now and it’s great. If he wants to be contrarian then that’s on him
I dont think mentioning Stardew Valley is a jab. Everyone in these images brings up very valid points. Its ok for her to try and convince people to save. To the right people, hopefully they do (ie. my friend who keeps buying ps5, and pc, and she doesnt even use them, she just likes the idea of having them). But for those who do more, they might indeed regret listening to her and getting the steam deck, and realize its not powerful enough for what they want to use it for. I felt like I wasted my money on the switch, cause I only ever played Totk in it. I should have just gone straight to PC and just borrowed someone else’s switch for that one game.
