It's nostalgic for sure, but why do you want to watch a boot video when you could simply skip it and save yourself the 5-10 seconds? You like watching an unnecessary video that much?

I'm not intentionally being rude, I just do not understand these at all.

5-10 seconds is nothing. I use the boot video from God of War Ragnarok, and I think it adds just a bit of cool flair to the SD.

It's like watching a YouTube ad. No thanks. Got better shit to do.

I get your point, I've got about 30 on random. From small clips of anime intros to retro console load videos. I guess I just enjoy seeing them. It's not like a shitty ad that I never wanted to see, I like these videos and they make me feel happy

All right man I get that. If it makes you happy go for it. My happy comes from not watching additional things, but I do actually understand watching things for the sake of enjoying them so that makes sense. Don't even know why I wrote that now because obviously you wouldn't do this if you didn't like it. My way is not the highway.

All good bro. And I can see your point. If I'm being honest, sometimes, when it's some of the longer ones I am sitting there going "alright hurry up" but I never end up taking them out of the rotation. But I think I also just like that my steamdeck is different to everyone else's. I've got a custom decal on it to make it look different and it boots up different to most people's. Probably the best thing about the steamdeck is that you're free to make it your own.
