You'll buy it anyway
>>741674031Ouya 2.0
>>741674031At it's originally intended price? sure, as a novelty.As is? I'm good with my pre built that is much stronger.I'd rather wait for a Steam Deck 2, the first iteration just feels like a rip off now.
Take 1.5k and buy a GPU then build around that
>>741674031uh no? im lucky i got a steam deck at it’s original price and on sale. other than that im not a steam defender at all. 1.4k for a mid tier PC are you fucking insane? go to hell. my 6 year old desktop (which literally has better stats despite being that old) will just have to hang on a little longer.
>>741674031I'm sure I can find better things to spend 1000 USD on than an underpowered box without even a controller.
>>741674031So is this thing equal to the steam deck in specs? If so why would I ever get this when I already have a deck that's been hooked up to my tv?
>>741674031People didn't buy in the first time they did Steam Machines.They did Steam Machines like a decade ago.
>>741674031Pfff. Not only will I not buy it; I don't see why anyone would buy it.
Will /v/ finally leave the steamie cult now that they are essentially the apple of gaming?
>>741675697What's the alternative? Windows gaming and Epic?
my workstation with a rx 6600 shoved into it is unironically better.
>>741675781Pirating, gog, and Linux. >B-BUH LIN- ACK!works on my machine with heroic launcher
>>741675781nta but I've only been buying from Steam, GOG, or direct from the developer/publisher when available already.
No fucking thanks, I badly need to build a new PC and this thing will cost like 3/4 of that while being weaker than a PS5.
>>741675897>>741675913When you play a game through Proton, you're using Valve software.
>>741676063I'm not sure what Proton is. Maybe you included me in the reply by accident? I didn't talk about Proton.
>>741676063>>741676249Same. Not sure what that schizo is talking about
>>741676249>>741676304Windowsaars detected
You guys are retarded and out of touch if you don't think this is going to sell out on day 1
>>741676407Anon, this was my post:>nta but I've only been buying from Steam, GOG, or direct from the developer/publisher when available already.What does Proton have to do with that?
>>741676451Of course it will sell out, an Apple monitor stand priced at several hundred dollars sold out over a decade ago by Apple diehards. People obsessed with a specific brand will always by new thing from that brand, whatever the price.
I only have a steam deck, that is my only computerIf I shouldn't buy this, what should I get instead? Be specific, I'm tired of all the bullshit claims with no actual market listings for something that's better than this for the same priceI don't care that you built your PC 5 seconds ago, I live in reality, I want to know what shit is good NOW and what it costs NOWand I want fucking PROOF
>>741676407I use wine-GE to run my games, steamie.
>>741676540>wine-GE Forked from Valve's Proton.
>>741675452Steam Machine is faster than the Steam Deck. CPU is ~2-3x(50%), GPU is ~4-6x(Compute Units is 250% and GPU clock speed is 53%). There's also the fact that Valve has been updating SteamOS for the upcoming Steam Machine, so those percentages could go even higher once the general public has access to the Steam Machine
>>741676454>What does Proton have to do with that?If you're not using Valve software, you're not on Linux. Not only because of Proton, but because of Valve code being in every version of the Linux kernel circa a few years ago.
>>741676690and? not valve's
>>741676907Again, what does that have to do with my post?
You can get an asus gaming laptop with a 5070 for ~$1500 right now and not have to wait until 2027 for it to be delivered. I'd rather have that as my tv console than a cube that's underpowered for current year, much worse when the next gen consoles release in 2028ish.
>>741674031I literally cannot
>>741676973Aren't you ashamed of being on an inferior OS?
>>741677067>nta but I've only been buying from Steam, GOG, or direct from the developer/publisher when available already.
>>741676961It's Valve's code being used to make it, it's a fork.
>>741677145that's cool, still not valve's tho
>>741674207It's over isn't it?
I already have a small form factor pc lol
>>741674031hardware ownership is over bros
>>741677282Please explain
