The steam deck is now unaffordable in Canada.I repeat.THE STEAM DECK IS NOW UNAFFORDABLE IN CANADA.
Good, stop playing gaymes with yourself.
>buy a normal PC>pirate all games>winit's that easy, anon. don't buy (((drm))) slop
>>536443916this is more important than Henry NowakBump.
think of Gabe, goy :(
>>536445786you can play pirate games on the deck
>chooseJust like in life, simply refuse to participate.
>>536443916video games are for children and manchildren
>>536443916waitfags keep losing.hardware prices have been extremely low for far too long. Affordable hardware lowers the entry barrier for poor (re: stupid) people. The result? Gaming sucks now.
Video games are such a waste of time. There aren't enough hours in the day to even read the books I want, let alone everything else in my life
I can no longer afford to put my dick on deck.
>>536443916>Nothin personnel
>>536443916if you do not earn enough money to buy a steam deck then you shouldn't be gaming, you should be working on making your bag
>>536443916>NEED 24/7/365 ACCESS TO MY VIDEO GAAAAAAAAMES>*shits and pisses pants uncontrollably*Oh no! Anyway.
>>536443916If they made this into a phone, too, they would sweep 10-15% of sales from Apple and Samsung
>>536443916>unaffordableStarting with being born a dalit, describe the series of bad life choices that got you to the point where you don't have $1200 disposable income for whatever fucking toy that is.
>>536443916I am here to mog you
>>536443916I found a guy on Facebook marketplace selling the cool smoke one you’re only supposed to be able to get in Canada. Got it a few years ago and honestly the Steam Deck is the best console I’ve ever purchased. So glad I got mine for under a thousand.
>>536444156Fuck you I won't do what you tell me
>>536443916Glad I bought one a few months ago. Sucks to suck losers.
>wasting money on a handheld pc with meh specsbut why
>>536449035Much better deal than the deck if you already own a computer.
>>536452369for travel, you can play it on a plane and all you need is a dock and you can hook it up to any hotel TVyou can also play it while on the shitter
>>536444156Civ 3 is based though
>>536443916"The ram situation is crazy and you don't know why"
>>536443916RETVRN
>>536452369It’s about the portability and the amount of different things you can do with it.
All my plastic goyslop purchased within the past 5 years has actually gone up in value. This is how you know we are at end game.
>>536443916For me it's the new steamer™ virtual reality console
>>536443916Oh noAnyway
>>536449035I can't stand that screen after playing on OLED>>536452220I got both of my oleds for 250 ea.
>>536453314Based, ayn thor is the gentleman's choice.
anons ive been debating about getting a PC with 16GB VRAM so i can use open source AI, generate anime waifu images. make music with AI. Run sillytavern roleplays with multiple characters.The only games i would play from time to time are guild wars 2 and age of wonders 4.but im wondering if this is worth it. because right now the paid music generating AI services are better than open source. Also, we don't know if these open source models will improve or will get vastly outclassed by proprietary models. Really seems like a big waste to get it if AI future is uncertain and i only play 2 PC games. if i get steamdeck i can't play guildwars 2 because i need a gaming mouse for that shit.honestly i dont know what to do. i think the best open is just rending a GPU.
>>536443916>>536445786>Pirate a chink gameboy for 40>enjoy the best era of gaming for free>win and save even more money
>>536454596renting a cloud GPU*
>>536452046Why would anybody want to game on a little tiny screen? Minimum I'll tolerate is a 32 inch monitor, and I want that shit right in front of my face with massive sprakers
>>536454890Can’t really bring a monitor with you everywhere you go
>>536454596Decentralised is always best.The models will get there in time and with development, which will be encouraged the more people use it instead of a Grok or Gemini or ChatGPT.Memory prices being as they are, 16 will have to do unless you really can afford 32.
As if your babby hands could even hold a Switch.
>>536454890I'm already reading pixels at 4k on a 27" panel, what the fuck is with the 32" trend
>>536443916Thats in canadian money, meaning its like 10 dollars USD. Average canadian lives on 5 USD a year from their commie welfare.
>>536443916Sorry but I'll continue playing Dota 2 on medium graphics settings on my 2011 gaming pcdon't need more simple as
>>536443916Kinda wish I waited on the OLED but I have the original steamdeck and it serves me well. Honestly at 35, I'll play for a bit once every few months at the most. I don't get how people play vidya like they're teens in thier 30s+. Hell it started to lose its magic when I hit 20 since I was getting pussy and doing LSD/MDMA at raves, now that's still fun for me
I have absolutely no idea why anyone would need this. Do you not have an actual computer? When you're mobile you don't need to be gaming 24/7. If you're on a business trip and in the hotel you'll have a proper laptop. Bringing a second proper one for gaming if it's a corporate Lenovo isn't a problem either. If you're on a plane take some fucking time to read books.
Also for the new price point, the ASUS is a better deal now, more powerful hardware in it
>>536455813It’s way less of a hassle to set up in hotel rooms and takes up less space than a laptop. It’s clear you don’t live this lifestyle.
>>536455813Bring a little foldable Bluetooth keyboard, have a case for the Deck that incorporates a stand (or figure out a stable way to prop it up) and enter desktop mode.There you go, a full-fledged Arch distro.Think of it more as a laptop in a gaming form factor that defaults to big picture mode.
>>536443916How many steam decks do you need?Why didnt you buy one last year? I bought mine in 2022 and Ive dropped it 4 times and it still working like normal
>>536443916Canadians voted for this btw and will continue to vote for this to help out migrants who want them dead over their own white people
>>536456015Nah you're just a faggot. Had room for two laptops in my carryon when I had to do that. Literally 10 seconds to set up a charger at a desk, that level of lazy is so unacceptable I refuse to believe you're being serious.
>>536456258Now when the fuck am I not going to already be carrying or dragging a bag for a proper laptop in this situation? It doesn't fit in your pocket. Why use something shittier? There's no form factor of luggage, briefcase, or backpack where this adds up. I could think MAYBE camping but what sort of sick fuck brings that camping?
>>536454890It's comfy as fuck in bed or on an airplane. I don't always want to be sitting on a chair or couch to gaymen
>>536443916buy used rog ally for sub 400 z1 extremeps4 switch 1 or ps5 for used physical games that dont run well on pcgtx 1050 to 1080 ti or rx 550 to 9060 xt pcok now u can run everything then fill it out with hacked retro consoles like psp wii etc
>>536445786ok what happens when they lawfare u offi have 2 pcs with working hardware that wont game due ms/nvidia lawfare
>>536443916Who cares about that outdated piece of junk? Buy new Intel ultra 8+ or Xbox rog ally x depending on budget or used rog ally z1e if you are extra poor like me
>>536454639Best era was ps2 and pc gaming of 90s-00s-10s so piss off
>>536449035I bought one of these the day they came out, and have yet to play on it.
>>536443916Why I would play games with 7.4" screen if can can use 100"?
>>536460974>gtx 1050 to 1080 ti or rx 550 to 9060 xt pcAll gay option except 9060xt, 5700 XT are better than all of those options (except 9060 again) and much cheaper
>>536443916You will own nothing and be happy! You will eat the bugs, carpool to work, and live in the box! This is the age of American Prosperity! You lost tranny, MAGA is forever!
>>536461219So you could play DOA5LR with mods whenever you go?
>>536461474I am always my home. O.o
>>536443916Good. Maybe you'll have to go outside now and notice your country has been invaded by subhuman browns.
>>536461722Your gaming chair is a toilet?
>>536443916Why do you need a Steam Deck anyways? It's not like you leave your mother's basement.
