Basically games that were only written to run on Windows. If someone likes the idea of playing, say, Ori and the Blind Forest, on a virtual movie theater screen, this is a way to do that, no porting from the original authors needed.

    Afaik, the list of titles you can do that with is around 130. On top of that, the "great on frame" baseline is 30fps at 720p. If you also take into account the fact that the snapdragon 8 gen 3 is already 3 years old and how little the Steam Frame battery lasts, then the whole idea starts to sound a lot worse.

    Is it cool you can do it? Sure. Would you actually want to do it and will you have a good time? Not sure, but doesn't sound like it.

    Better bring a few battery packs. Battery on standalone lasts like 1.5hrs.
