That saves Valve time and effort during development, and it means it could be easier for the Steam team to justify the work spent on certain improvements or changes if those hours are doing double duty. That means where Big Picture Mode didn’t get all of Steam’s recent improvements because development couldn’t necessarily be easily shared between the two versions, the Steam Deck will naturally be able to inherit everything – and features Valve develops for the Deck will also go toward improving Steam in return. Spofford told me that “the main thing to understand is the operating system of is just Steam.” It’s been given a facelift to work better with a controller just like Big Picture, but unlike Big Picture it’s not some branched product when it comes to Valve’s backend it’s the same Steam with a different look. It hasn’t changed visually pretty much at all, and it turns out that clunky feeling may have also been shared by Valve while working on it behind the scenes as well. But while Big Picture mode certainly makes navigating your library easier from the couch, it’s become somewhat dated and clunky since its introduction nearly a decade ago.
