I already have a steam deck. But, I am thinking of getting a PS5 for the games that can’t run on the deck or would be better played on a console. Is this a silly idea? Redundant? I would have a steam deck and a pS5.
I would need to get a tv/monitor to go with the console.
I’m not in a position to get a PC or build one, hence, the steam deck.
Well… Do you want to play games that are only on the PS5?
All you’re asking for is validation. Do what you want to/can do.
(You can use a TV for both the console and the steam deck)
Some performance-extensive games may also work better on PS5. As OP doesn’t plan to build a gaming PC, I think a PS5 could improve the experience of lots of new games.
