  PlaySage — Steam Deck & PC Buying Assistant
  
  We've all been there: a game's on sale, the trailer looks sick, but will it actually run on your Deck? Are the menus a blurry mess on a 7-inch screen? Is the controller support real or "technically yes"? PlaySage answers all of that before you hit Buy.
  
  Drop onto any Steam store page and PlaySage slides in a sidebar with a smart compatibility breakdown — built from deep game analysis and real ProtonDB ratings — so you stop gambling your money on games that play like garbage on your setup.
  
  🎮 Will it run? Now you know.
  Instant scores for performance, controller support, and UI readability — tuned for Steam Deck or PC, whichever you're rocking.
  
  🛒 Smart Buy — your backlog's voice of reason
  Be honest: how many unplayed games are sitting in your library right now? Sync your Steam library and PlaySage gives it to you straight — Safe to Buy, Think About It, or Backlog Overload — and calls out games you already own that scratch the same itch. (You don't need a fourth open-world RPG. Probably.)
  
  ⏱️ Time to Beat
  See main-story and 100% completion hours up front. Perfect for figuring out if that 120-hour epic fits your life right now.
  
  💡 Quick-glance insight chips
  Bite-sized tags for library fit, game length, controller quality, performance, and readability — the TL;DR for when you don't want to read a wall of text.
  
  📊 Real data, not vibes
  Live ProtonDB community ratings + smart analysis = recommendations you can actually trust.
  
  Free forever: 20 game analyses a month + 5 Smart Buy checks. Go Pro for unlimited everything and zero ads.
  
  Just install it and open any Steam game page — PlaySage does the rest.
  
  Affiliate Disclosure
  PlaySage may display affiliate links and sponsored gear recommendations (e.g. Steam Deck accessories on Amazon). If you buy through these links, we may earn a small commission at no extra cost to you — it helps keep the lights on and the free tier free. Affiliate and sponsored content is clearly shown in the sidebar's gear section and never influences your game compatibility scores or Smart Buy recommendations, which are based solely on game analysis and ProtonDB data.

  PlaySage — Steam Deck & PC Buying Assistant
  
  Steam sales are dangerous 😅
  
  That "must-buy" RPG might already exist in your backlog… three times.
  
  PlaySage helps you decide if a game is ACTUALLY worth buying before you hit Add to Cart. Open any Steam store page and PlaySage instantly checks:
  
  ✅ Whether the game runs well on Steam Deck or PC
  ✅ If you already own similar games
  ✅ Whether your backlog can realistically handle another 100-hour RPG
  ✅ Why the recommendation makes sense
  ✅ How long the game actually takes to beat
  
  🛒 Smart Buy — your backlog's voice of reason
  
  Sync your Steam library and PlaySage gives every game a recommendation:
  
  ✅ Safe to Buy
  ⚠️ Think About It
  ❌ Backlog Overload
  
  It even calls out games already in your library that scratch the same itch.
  (You probably don’t need another open-world RPG. Probably.)
  
  🎮 Steam Deck & PC Compatibility
  
  Instant compatibility insights powered by ProtonDB ratings and smart analysis:
  
  ✅ Performance
  ✅ Controller support
  ✅ UI readability
  ✅ Steam Deck experience
  
  ⏱️ Time to Beat
  
  See main-story and completion times instantly so you know whether that 120-hour epic actually fits your life right now.
  
  💡 Quick-glance insights
  
  Fast, bite-sized recommendation chips for:
  
  ✅ Library overlap
  ✅ Game length
  ✅ Controller quality
  ✅ Performance
  ✅ Readability
  
  📊 Real data, not vibes
  
  PlaySage combines ProtonDB ratings, backlog awareness, and recommendation logic to help you make smarter Steam purchases.
  
  Free forever:
  ✅ 20 game analyses/month
  ✅ 5 Smart Buy checks
  
  Go Pro for unlimited recommendations and zero ads.
  
  Just install it and open any Steam game page — PlaySage does the rest.
