I’ve been considering purchasing a steam deck. My pc is in my office, which limits interaction with the rest of the family if I want to play anything. I’ve tried playing mobile games, but just can’t get use to the controls. Think it’s worth getting one?

      I agree that streaming might be worth considering, but instead of Steam Play, which is quite meh, try Moonlight. That’s the client, and the open source server is called Sunshine. The performance and latency is much better. If you want to take it to the next level, you can add Tailscale to the mix for seamless streaming outside your local network/WiFi. As long as the underlying connection is fast enough, it tends to work really well.
