What's the ideal gaming device for me? I hate Steam, I hate Valve, I hate Half-Life, I hate the Steam Deck, I hate Gabe Newell, and I hate PC gaming in general.I dread the day they announce that damn Half-Life 3.So I'd like a gaming device that's anti-PC gaming and gives me the image of someone who hates Steam and hates Gabe Newell.
They should've waited for UDNA SoCs on the console. It's going to be too fucking expensive or underpowered.
if they're not announcing any cool exclusive it's fucking dead
>>725652091>Xbox isn't a box>Play station has no play>Steam machine doesn't produce steamFollowing the trend of false advertisement across the board

>>725652762lol, lmao
>>725652091What games will be on it?
I'm unironically retarded but is this basically a steam console?like can I hook it up to my tv and Play steam games or is this a PC?

>>725653485You know you can hook up a pc to your tv right?
>>725652091ah great, another underpowered and overpriced piece shit like the steam deck, yeah not thanks
>>725653485Steam Console. Specs around PS5 level.>like can I hook it up to my tv and Play steam gamesYou can do that with a PC too, genius. A Steam Console is basically a prebuilt PC with SteamOS.
>>725653446all of them
>>725653939I don't want to use the vr headset, is that necessary?
>>725652091So it’s just another steam machine but with a vr headset?
>>725653731I do not worship false gods and I do not bow down to false lords.
>>725652748So will most people who purchase one. It's just optional hardware for people who want multiple setups in different rooms. It's going to be extremely niche.
>>725653485It's a Steam Deck, minus the screen and integrated controls, so you hook it up to a screen and pair a controller and you're playing PC games... If they sell it at cost it could be a really cheap entry level gaming PC.
>>725654159No. You can just play normal games with the controller.
>>725654168Yes

>>725658313Why are you so mad
>>725652091The only reason to buy a console game is to play exclusive games, when there are very few of nowadays. Most new AAAs are crap enough that people with low or mid-end PCs can already enjoy their favourite prev-gen games without upgrading and those with high-end PCs don't care about cuck systems. Like, you can get a Steamdeck or a Switch if you want handheld, or a PS5 if you want to watch netflix on a big screen.

>>725652091Unironically excited for the controller. The OG controller was great, but needing a dongle and AA batteries sucks nowadays. I love the trackpads and feel of the Steam Deck and a controller with the same form/function is exactly what I've been looking for to replace my DualShock. The Cube is a maybe, I tend to dock my SD and use it from the couch, but having a dedicated box for streaming from my PC plus the controller is certainly enticing.Don't care for the VR thing tho.
>>725660910name 3 vr games
>>725660820no, but I'm conscious of what I buy from them. If anything I dislike them more for bowing to credit card companies.Steam was always a little inclusive and progressive, but you can't buy a pack of cheese in this day and age if you hard up boycott anything in that direction.
>>725659017actually, yes
>>725655793gabe has the infinite money glitch that is steam, he can afford to make a vr headset he wants to use and even if literally no one buys it he doesn't care, he's already recovered all expenses in the time it took me to type this postthe joys of not having """shareholders""" breathing down your neck to make the line go up

>STILL pushing VRyou tried, gabe. it didn't take. it's over. just give up and move on
I'm really curious how much they'll charge for the new Steam Machine.If it's $300-$400, I think that would be an incredible value and, at that price, it'll be a no-brainer to buy a Steam Machine. However, if it's any more expensive than that you're better off just building your own PC or upgrading a used PC. The Steam Machine is going to have very limited-to-no upgrade paths. You can't assume that the Steam Machine is going to sell well because the Deck has done well. The Deck being a handheld makes it a fun novelty, whereas you don't necessarily need a new PC.I really have my doubts they'll sell it cheap. It's probably going to be $600-$800 and I think it's going to be a FLOP at that price. Selling it cheap isn't necessarily a good idea either because what if people decide to buy it because it's so cheap and then just install Windows 11 on it and ignore buying Steam games? You could say the same thing about the Deck but, again, Deck is a handheld and there's basically no reason to do stuff in "desktop mode."

>Frame can directly play games, no streaming or PC neededGaben I fucking kneel
>>725663343gabe will continue making vr stuff just for me, for ever and ever
>>725657797>>725658118enjoy the 8GB VRAM
>>725663407Judging by their previous hardware it will be on the expensive side.
>>725652835A fuckin Playstation you pleb.
>>725663951Any games that require more than 8GB aren't good
>>725664019It'll be interesting to see how well it sells this time. I'll be amazed if Steam Machine goes well this time. I really do think it should be cheaper than a Steam Deck. The intelligent thing to do would be to take the guts of a Steam Deck and put it in a box. With no screen, no controller, and no battery, you end up with something cheaper than a Deck.
>>725664375i think it will probably perform noticeably better than the last time. first because streamers made pc gaming more mainstream, and second because proton means you can actually just play games on it. it is still just a branded pre-built so i doubt it will be a massive hit, but it's not going to completely flop
>>725652091can you get the vr headset separately ?
>>725652420https://store.steampowered.com/sale/steammachineI don't know why I keep spoonfeeding retards
>>725665091yes, these are three separate products
>>725664375Their target should be 8-18 year old kids who want to buy a gaming PC but cant afford them. This used to be the target age of consoles before they became completely unappealing. It has to be cheap to hit an unserved market, everyone rich enough to buy a full spec PC doesnt need one or has been playing PC games long enough they could probably build an SFF pc out of spare parts if they were that desperate for a living room PC. My 8-10 year old SFF PC has the same specs as this and is barely double the size.
>>725652091The VR headset is the only device that really interests me, but it will also be insanely expensive judging by the Index and I don't think Valve is interested in taking a cut to try and achieve mass market appeal like Meta. Shame. I just want to try out a decent VR headset without taking out a mortgage or selling my soul to Zuck.
>>725665401good
>>725665890It's not that fancy, it might be cheaper than the Quest, or atleast go for 500
>>725665890i doubt it'll cost as much as an index
>play PC games on the big screen in my living room without having to turn on my PC in the other room and switch interfacesSounds comfy desu
>Quest 2.5 for the price of Quest 4>Wii U Pro controller for the price of Wii U pro controller>a bad PC for the price of a good PCWOWZA
>>725665518This, unemployed/v/ autists don't understand that normal people with jobs don't want to sperg out over building a PC their entire lives. You see the same thing on /k/ with ARfags
>>725665890I think some video said they're aiming for a price below that of the index.
>>725666043>Sounds comfyNow put on the half a kilo face mask
>>725666068future man tell us please, what are the prices they have not yet announced?
>>725652091Price?
>>725666183The Frame and Machine are sold separately
>>725652091Did they announce SteamOS for PC?
>>725666312Oh so you mean the machine when you said "don't have to turn on my PC"? Because it is your PC
>>725666202I just told you didn't I, quote me on that, screencap. There's no way Gabe is undercutting Meta
>>725663407>building your own PCthis filters 90% of people.alienware wouldn't even exist as a company if it didnt.
>>725666403you could always just install it on pc my man, but yeah i guess v3 might be more optimized for it
>>725666000>>725666028>>725666108Don't get me wrong I don't think it will be Index or Apple Vision levels or anything, but I can't see it being near the same level as a Quest 3.Then again. for some reason VR headsets sold at retail are insanely overpriced in my country. So maybe Valve's direct to consumer model will balance the price a bit.
>>725666529future man, you arrived before the quest 4's price was released, i do not know how much that is
>16GB DDR5 + 8GB GDDR6 VRAMwell ok I'm disappointedif I didn't have a shitty prebuilt already I'd consider it thoughI'll buy the controller at least.
>>725652748It's for console players who are ready to ditch their nogamez machines but not ready to build a PC.
>Cyberpunk 2077 benchmark averaged 65fps at medium settings with basic ray tracing turned on, while being upscaled to 4K from a native 1080p output using AMD’s FSR 3.0. The benchmark never dipped below 58 frames per second, and when I took the controls for a spin in one of the more demanding regions of the game, the lowest I saw was 55fps in a quick firefight.FSR3 is literally unusable. Cyberpunk supports FSR4. That means the GPU can't run 4? Valve using garbage bin chips.
>>725667108>wanting to play cybercuckmight as well come out of the closet desu
>>725653914no you fucking cant
>>725667108I think you can run fsr 4 on rdna3 on linux, although it's not as efficient as it is on rdna4.
>>725667108Relying that heavily on FSR without support for FSR 4 seems insane. This console is going to struggle immediately, there's a target audience for people who dont have a console or a pc but that is pretty small. This almost feels like the specs I would expect from a prototype deck 2.0, modern games at 1080p while just falling short of 60fps.
>>725667525anon are you retarded
>>725667604No, we have a fallback implementation from a github leak that runs on older GPUs with reduced perf. That means their chip cant run native 4.
>>725667607yes
>>725667971
of all the things i just cant believe they didn't call it the steam cube i mean i wont be buying one cause my PC is better by every metric but still i will be buying the controller cause i wanted the steamdeck experience on my PC and i will also be guying the headset as an upgrade to my aging DYING quest 3 though im pissed its still LCD WHY VALVE? im hoping it will at least work natively with linux and i can finally escape this windows (every week is a new AI code breakage) hell
>tfw almost tempted to get it just because the the form factor makes me nostalgicI wish I could just stick my 7900xtx in there.
>>725652091>steam machine take twomehthe controller looks like absolute shit though
>>725663518Why isn't this shit standard anyway, fucking jewPU makers.
>>725667841Well I guess that's gonna be a big selling point when they inevitably release an upgraded version with 32gb of ram and an rdna4 gpu. Probably around the same time that they're gonna release an oled steam frame.
yeah nah, getting a psvr2 when it's on sale (again)
>>725668330its literally a steamdeck without the screen trust me it will be the best experience
>>725652572beat saber on the frame i guess
>>725668497maybe we can finally get back to modded beat saber that doesn't require you to roll back the installed version of the game
>>725652572Porn games in the living room, fun for the whole family.
i'm actually excited for the machine because i want a new pc but they're all either giant neon signs or tiny squares with no GPUs or displayports, and i just got an index so I need DP. if it's under $1000 this is exactly what I want
>>725668986you know if you build a PC it doesn't have to have ANY RGB in it right?
>>725652091The controller looks so bad to hold and the buttons on the back being actual buttons is retarded, not sure how but MS nailed how a controller should be, the paddles are longer and are comfortable to click regardless if you have large fingers or not because it's a paddle, so you press wherever is more comfortable. They are also metal so they feel good to press, unlike the plastic they will probably use on the Steam controller
>>725669346yeah, I never use the back-buttons on my Steam Deck. They aren't comfortable to press and there's no point to them.
>>725669279that's what they told me, and then i plugged everything in and it was rainbow anyway
>>725668986you could just buy a big empty black case and not add any rgb shit into it.
>>725669470i set the ones on the left to be A and B so i can smoke with my right hand and play jrpgs with my left
>>725669279i don't want to
>>725669492so turn it all off? you know you con control the RGB in your PC right?these are the people telling us windows is better than linux
>>725669470you are meant to press them by "gripping" your finger i used to think they where bizarrely hard to press until i tried it that way
I'ma buy the controller
>>725655793Gabe built this for me. I want VR on Linux and this will do it.Thanks GabeN
>>725669690It is if a retard like that can use it
>>725670109if he cant turn off the RGB in his machine than he cant use windows
what did he mean by this?
>>725660820It's pretty obvious they hired some marketing firm to make a commercial. I really don't think Steam employees cast trannies.
>>725669346I thought there were patent issues, that's why they couldn't use paddles.
>>725666562I don't want to install an early version of it. Kinda scared of fully switching to Linux so I wanna get the best introduction to it I can get
>>725670860the linux part of it is just linux, i doubt it will be especially different
>>725670860>Kinda scared of fully switching to LinuxIt's an operating system not a rabid animal. There's nothing to be scared of.
>>725670860if you are using a quest 3 for VR dont even bother it leaves a lot to be desired as far as ALVR creates a ton of lag and hold ups even when it does work i am hoping the steam frame works with linux natively cause then ill be swapping to that
>>725671071>google how to fix something>yeah bro just run all these random commands in the terminal, remember to run as sudo!
>>725659696It probably runs the same as a PC at the same prize, except the latter can do way more things, obviously.
>>725671216>run as sudoYeah, I don't think any form of Unix is for you.
>>725664184trvthnvke
>>725671216I copy paste shit from the Google AI overview into my terminal all the time and its fine. Just don't be retarded.
The box is obviously targeting more console players than existing pc gamers but is that even feasible right now on a linux based device? I mean most console players just want to play CoD, Sportsball games, or Cookie cutter shooters with EAC and the last I checked all those games don't support linux/proton or has changed in the last couple years?

>>725670848Yeah, some worthless human trash patent troll is basically fucking up game design because third person action games with paddles as standardized control schemes would be able to do some amazing things.
>>725652762it's 6 times the power of a steam deck
>>725672340>taking the ad at its word
>>725672340 Yeah and my toaster is 6 times more powerful when it's plugged into the wall instead of running on vibes. Marketing buzzwords don't mean shit until we see real-world benchmarks. Show me a game running at stable 60fps ultra on native Linux with Proton and maybe I'll raise an eyebrow.

When did Valve start using this gay reddit language and design in their marketing? The announcement video was also cringe and gay.
>>725652091>Steam Frame renders where your eyes are lookingValve is about to revolutionize VR again
>>725673434My point exactly
>>725673442valve has been reddit since back when it was actually just digg
>>725673556no one is going to use linux to " hide from the government" you absolute spastic
>>725673315The government can spy on you no matter what OS you use because they have a backdoor from your CPU you fucking inept moron. Quit talking about technology and just play your games on your oversized console.
>>725652091So if I hate Windows, and have a 2070Super and 10700k, how much of a downgrade is this?
>>725673442>reddit invented the word "y'all"
This but more square and not made by Microsoft just as Microsoft is shitting up their own game. King shit, Valve.
>>725674106>implying southerners aren't reddit as fuckImagine fighting a war to stop Lincoln from kicking your niggers out.
I'm the steam deck's biggest fan, in fact it's my primary gaming device these days (I moved and never bothered to get a real PC), BUT, doesn't this thing not run AAA games?The lack of anticheat on the big games really feels like it limits the market. I can play Arc Raiders, but if people want to play battlefield they can't on the GabeCube without installing windows which makes it hardly plug and play.I might just be dumb though, can someone explain the logic? I suppose if this is $400 or less I'll buy it but otherwise don't see the point.
valve is gonna fuck this up in the stupidest way nothing will be upgradable not even the internal storage
>>725674301surely not all AAA is kernel level anti-cheat. steam deck works fine with denuvo
>>725674569I don't really play AAA games (Arc Raiders is the first I've played in years), but I've been told most don't work at all if they are multiplayer, like Fortnite, Apex, Valorant, League, Roblox, which I hear is most of the PC gaming market.
>>725674549What, like you think the components are gonna be soldered into the board or something? I find that unlikely.
>>725674301If you strip a windows install down and then install Steam and set it to launch in Big Picture on boot its essentially the same exact UI as the Steam Deck rn. But the anticheat issue is literally just anticheat companies refusing to make their shit worn on linux. Its not impossible to do, Valve's anticheat is on it and it works well enough that it keeps TF2 and CS clean.
>>725674829I know that's the issue, I'm talking more in terms of appeal, it's kind of a chicken and egg thing I guess, but I think steam will really have to underprice these to sell. If they can hit $300 for the gabecube I think it could take off, but any more than that will be a struggle.
>>725674819yes thats exactly what i think and they will have some lame excuse as to why as well just incase someone whines
>>725674710AAA online multiplayer, i guess, is probably all unplayable on linux
>>725675041Until that is fixed I can't see it taking off, steam needs to lean on the other devs.
>>725674549If they made the steamdeck, a handheld device, upgradable, you really think they wouldnt make a whole pc sized pc have an m.2 slot? It also has an SD card slot.
>is called the steam machine>doesn't play any daft punk music or release any steam
>>725675112>If they made the steamdeck, a handheld device, upgradableNo they didn't
>>725675112valve is fuckin famous for making the dumbest mistakes any company can make right as they are about to reach the top
>>725655793>gamersFuck off back to readit.
>>725675205You know you can change the ssd in a steam deck right?
>>725652091honestly can see people buying this and putting it in their living rooms. Basically a game console with the added benefit of being a computer which is pretty big for normies.
>>725674301tbqh anticheat support is all over the place. some companies support linux, some dont, some started doing it for a while and then stopped but also dual booting was supposed to be a steam deck feature at one point, idk what happened with that
>>725675109wait, i was just scanning through the top sellers chart and Dead by Daylight is verified Steam Deck compatible, but also has kernel level anti-cheat?
>>725660820YES. PIRATING OR BUYING ON EGS FOR MULTIPLAYERS GAMES
>>725652091I kneel to my overlord and sire, GabeN-sama!!!
>>725652835Try this
>>725675205upgradable is a spectrum that tracks pretty closely the inverse of the autism spectrum. the deck is somewhere in the middle
>>725675461>holding a sword by the blade get this AI made trash out of here!!
>>725675339People said this a decade ago, nothing ever happens
>>725675572This is from For Honor
>>725652091Doubt it'll pull in the normie console market seeing as its just a linux computer
>>725675572>doesn't know what halfswording ishello retard!
>>725675440DbD uses EAC and that has Linux support but it has to be enabled by the developers. It works on both bare Linux and Proton.
>>725675691>>725675691you couldnt grip a sword blade without slicing your fingers of they are RAZER sharp
>>725673984at least~15% worse performance in games.>I hate xflushing performance down the drain based on emotions is a feminine trait, btw.
>>725652091Where's Half-Life 3 you fat fuck
>>725675907windows is VERY easy to hate cause Microsoft cant go a week without breaking something anymore its bad when you have a worse breakage track record than arch
>>725675615OG steam machines were an entirely different beast. And I think most importantly the popularity of the steam decks have pushed Valve to be a recognizable name in gaming hardware which will certainly give it a boost with its most important market, dumbass normies who don't want to build a PC
>>725675832there's a pretty obvious path, then. like, if i'm valve, i just walk up to activision and say "hey, if you enable linux support, we'll knock half a percent off the commission we take on this game", activision counters with some other number, and then both parties crunch the numbers until it makes sense
>>725675678For all they're concerned, its a console that just opens, you install the game and you play the game. They dont care what it runs on or what else you can do with it. It wouldnt be any different than any other console for them
>>725658932>>725659116>>725659116Have I got news for you anon if you use your eyes or watch the video all of your questions will be answeredthe answer is yes and its gonna be like 2x more powerful than the quest 3 while being able to play your entire steam library and also having foveated rendering so it tracks where your eyes are and focuses on rendering that
>>725665124>>725652091>AMD GPULMAOMAOwhat a fucking scam holy shit
>>725665890The Steam Frame will be $650 minimum, more likely $800-$1000. Anyone that believes otherwise is completely fucking retarded. Since it's just running real Linux without Facebook spyware bloat I would sell my Quest 3 and buy one of these for anything under $1k in a heartbeat.
>>725676516I got a quest 3 for 400 canadian, if this is more than that it'll never penetrate anything but the sweatlord porn addict market.
>>725676516if its 650 i wilkl buy it day one if its 800-1000 i will buy it soon after
>>725676636>if Steam's wearable PC costs more than my advertising machine it won't penetrate the marketI think you're right about market penetration but hope you're wrong. Either way you're a clown for thinking that you'd get a piece of hardware you actually own for cheaper than your advertising box.
>>725676351Its very different from other consolesFor one its literally just a PC in a compact boxDoubt sony and nintendo fans are going to drop their consoles
Wonder if the controller can wake the Deck up from sleep mode/ turn it on.
>>725652091vidya?
>>725676636>Meta attributes these strong financial results to its digital advertising sector, which brought in $46.56 billion, representing approximately 98% of its total revenue, up by 21% year-over-year.it's an advertising box bro
>>725676514??? amd's good, especially on linux
>>725676903>>725676794>VR headsets are 'advertising boxes'QRD?i thought they were basically just phone-screens strapped to your eyes
The guy who leaked this also leaked Half-Life 3 on the 19th which is not-so-coincidentally half-life's birthday. What do we think, chat?
>>725677128the Quest 3 specifically is an advertising platform, the post you're responding to is the QRD since it points out that 98% of Meta's revenue comes from advertisingstop being retarded anon
>>725674710roblox works on linux you just have to download a fan client (sober)
>>725676839is there any reasonable way to do this? i'd love if i could remote install games to my deck when they release while i'm at work. right now i just end up installing them to my pc, so my deck can pull the files from it when i get home, which is better than nothing but damn
>>725676841Yeah theres like 50 thousand of them
>>725677286put your deck on a Dock and don't let it go to sleep?
>>725677217Ok, but if all I'm using it as is a remote control screen for my PC, that's their direct competition. They need to be the same price minimum.
I'll probably get the controller. No interest in the box. Slightly interested in the VR headset but I know it's going to be lol priced.
>>725675942>>725652091
>>725677358>same price minimumno retard keep your advertising box glued to your face, just ignore the obvious hardware advantages on the Steam Frame and keep shitposting on 4chan instead of thinking critically about anything ever
>>725672168unlike a jeet like you I have never touched a linux desktop in 14 years because I exclusively use linux for servers.
>>725677354the dock just has never seemed worth buying to me. i don't really play on my tv, and you can't use an eGPU to actually improve performance, so outside of this it would basically just be an expensive charger
Half Life 3 will launch the same day as the box and the VR headset. Will probably come free with either one.
>>725677509I am already going to buy one, I'm talking about market penetration you dingbat
What are you putting on the front panel of your gabecube?
>>725677569we've reached terminal velocity of "pajeet" meaning literally nothing
>>725677470he's so happy
>>725677574so just plug it in and disable sleep, I didn't mean "buy the Steam branded Steam Deck Steam Dock for your remote Steam Steaming Steam", just use literally any USB-C dock or charging cable, what are we even talking about here
>>725677642A picture of a better PC
>>725652091>anon told me the controller was an AI mockup>it's realWhy does it look so retarded? And why is it so large? Is that what the average man's hand is like?
>>725677824controller was an AI pass-through to remove any possible identifying information iirc
>>725677642
>>725677642if i can put custom images im putting this
>>725677593I don't understand why you're interested in talking about market penetration when you've demonstrated you have a child's understanding of how pricing and demand interact in entertainment products
>>725677773hmmm, is it possible to set the screen to turn off without the machine going to sleep? that would actually work just fine
>>725677217eh? okay but likedoes it make you salute The Corporation in the middle of gameplay or something? how is it advertising if you're playing things on iti don't know shit about these things
>>725677887Is this the future of leaks? Because that is not a bad idea, I guess.
>>725675109it is not fixed in the sense that those games actively avoid linux because this would make it even easier for cheater.
>>725678028
>>725678224if your entire interaction with your Quest 3 is>boot up>go to app menu>open Steam Link>live in Steamthen you're not seeing many advertisements. You're just getting tracked by Meta so that they can try to serve you third-party cookie/identifier ads whenever you're browsing the web on your other devices that they can identify as you. That is NOT what most Quest 3 users do and they're constantly getting advertised via the Meta Horizon app and within all of the Meta Quest menus/system interfaces
>>725678353its yolandi being cute why not see it?
>>725678276it's kinda shoehorning AI into a process that could be done with some crops and copy-pasting into an art program and saving as a jpeg but yeah sloppa's not the worst application for it
>>725678416so these people are literally just data piglet livestock the moment they put the brick on their headsthat's pretty funny actuallylike in an awful waythanks anon
>>725678114https://letmegooglethat.com/?q=steam+deck+is+it+possible+to+set+the+screen+to+turn+off+without+the+machine+going+to+sleep
>>725652091will be good for CS pro players
>>725677642would be funny
>>725665124What the fuck are these two disgusting landwhale trannies doing in the commerical?Hard pass.
>>725678513unfortunately, this joke worked better back in the days when google answered your question
>>725678834if you press and hold the power button there might be a "turn off screen" option which you could use after disabling all sleep functions, if that doesn't work there's 2 dozen different ways to shut off the display via the terminal but then I'd have to babysit you through how to use thatmy other suggestion would be disabling all sleep, plugging it in, and turning brightness all the way down which should be close enough
>>725678971i'm just making small talk until i can clock out brother, if you aren't interested in talking about steam deck settings i'm not going to force you to reply
>>725652091use case for the headset?
>>725679456seems like they're leaning on the monitor replacement aspect. should work better than a quest for playing games or watching movies before bed, since it won't freak out if you turn off the lights
>>725679164sorry man I used to do IT help desk and lost all patience for doing it on my own time and since it's 4chan it's always thankless>System Settings -> Shortcuts -> Power Management>Set a custom shortcut to turn off display
>>725679835i'll give that a shot
>>725652091>PC faggot race: consoles ares shiiiiiiit>also PC faggot race: our fat king Gaben made a console, let's slurp his cock, all of us togetherlel what a bunch of cocksucking hypocrites
>>725680005our fat king Gaben is going to sell a pre-built PC that runs regular PC operating systems, I know you're not operating on many brain cells here but surely you can understand the difference
>>725680005it's more like a pc wearing a console skinsuit
I'm all for this console if it means HL3 is a launch title
>>725674829>Valve's anticheat is on it and it works well enough that it keeps TF2 and CS cleanLMAO
is the nu/v/ consensus that invasive anti-cheat is good because my heckin' competitive integrity and therefore Linux is le bad? This is where we ended up?
>>725654176>It's going to be extremely nicheI was gonna build a mini itx rig so I might just end up going with this. I would imagine plenty of people getting into PC gaming now or upgrading from older rigs would go for it if the price is decent as well.
>>725680910We hate linux because it is tranny garbage
>>725681450using Linus Torvalds as the example of why Linux is pozzed is fucking retarded, this entire speech from him is 100% performative and only aimed at redirecting the hate trannies have for him at someone else. I mean this sincerely. Open Source as a whole is pozzed but mainly because the entire tech industry is pozzed, all of the ugly nerds try to become women nowadays
>>725681450>and everyone clapped that post is pure shivers
>>725680005consoles are shit because of the closed system and proprietary bullshit (you must insert a playstation game into your playstation, and you must use a playstation controller), plus all the extra fees for online multiplayerthis has none of that and in fact encourages the exact opposite
If this thing is sub 500$ it will unironically kill all PC and Console says for the foreseeable future. If valve does this right they will be throat fucking the competition.
>>725682109As much as id love that it wont kill shit cause ps fanboys are ps fanboys and pc players would rather upgrade parts. What they can do is replace xbox as its currently shitting itself which would be great
>>725652420Middling. Expect to play everything at medium settings and using FSR if you use a resolution bigger than 1080p unless you consider <= 30fps playable.
>>725652091It's so weird to me that they keep screwing with hardware. Surely making some new Valve games would be more profitable. I'm not a Halflife person, but I'd love Portal 3.
>>725663407>Selling it cheap isn't necessarily a good idea either because what if people decide to buy it because it's so cheap and then just install Windows 11 on it and ignore buying Steam games?I think you got this line of thinking wrong, almost nobody in the world who is going to buy a Steam Machine is going to go out of their way to never buy a game off of, like it or not, the current biggest PC game market. It's just not going to happen.And because of that, they are going to sell it cheap. Valve probably saw the writing on the wall with Microsoft and Gamepass and know that they're going to try to get into the PC gaming industry more directly. Valve has always obviously hated having to directly rely on Windows for Steam to be as big a success as it currently is. All this Steam Hardware stuff is just trying to beat Microsoft to the punch, and I can see them selling it cheap and at a loss if it means getting a new audience into the Steam ecosystem. Same thing with the Frame, they want to be divorced from Meta so they don't have to worry about getting cut off from PCVR. This is also the reason why they made sure Frame can play flatscreen games, now some guy who brought a Frame instead of a Quest to try out VR is going to have access to a full Steam library like he had a gaming PC this entire time
Can we upgrade this thing?
>>725655793the problem with VR is there are no gamesno one wants to invest in a VR headset because no games and no one wants to make VR games because no one has a VR headset
>>725654329Because it's a controller made for a computer? Are you retarded? You must be extremely retarded
>>725652572Western fan-sequels to 35 year old Japanese games that don't look, sound or play as good as the originals.
>>725652936There are thousands of exclusives on steam.
>>725652091If the price is right I can picture myself buying this for the living room, and as a bonus to assist with streaming
>>725653446Every Vanillaware game + Jackie Chan
