Any future ROG Ally owners here? (self.gaming)

Having once upon a time been a top level Desktop Engineer for a Fortune 100 company that used Windows, I now am an exclusive Mac/Console user and haven’t really done much with Windows since Windows 7. But there are often games I want that are PC only, usually indies and puzzle/point and click adventure games.

The Steam Deck had a lot of downsides for me but the price was attractive. Almost bought it during the sale but then the Ally was announced and I preordered as soon as I could. It certainly won’t be a seamless experience, but I’m looking forward to being able to play just about any game that runs on Windows (I usually play Genshin Impact on PS5, but hate playing on mobile when I’m out and about and Steam Deck can’t play it).

Any other future owners? I’m really looking forward to be able to play Stray Gods, the musical game by ex BioWare writers and scored by Austin Wintory in August.

Nothing in your post was inviting to a flame war. If that happens, it's the flamers who are at fault 🙂.

I've pre ordered. Main reason being that the SteamDeck isn't available in Norway, and probably won't be any time soon. My main reason for wanting SteamDeck is the trackpads. I'm sceptical how well the controllers will work in an RTS or a click and point game.
