Steamies: It's okay when Valve fraudulently lies.

>>741937919
where is HLX
>>
>>741939525

Not ready to be annoubced

I want this, but reshaped as a steam deck 2
>>
>>741937919
Valve is basically gamer Apple. There are people who will buy anything as long as it has the name "Steam" on it no matter what it is
>>
>>741939628

Steamies and tendies are the exact same thing.
>>
>>741939551
wake me up when its ready then

>>741937919
I'm still getting one but wtf is up with this lazy packaging? Has valve always done this?
>>
Steam Machine is still more powerful than 70% of PCs out there the Steam Data doesn't lie.

I almost signed up for it, but after some thinking, I think I'm gonna spend the extra few hundred and get the Framework Desktop instead with 64GB of DRAM.

This is packaging for everything post COVID.
>>
>>741939856
Wrong!!!! I seen that clear green xbox is coming in a box inspired by the original xbox box. Granted it's basically a blank black box with the new xbox logo but still.
>>
>>741937919
Valvetards are so sad lol
>>
>>741939735
Valve had the right idea designing hardware based on that data but they did not frame it correctly. They should have limited data to North America, Europe, SK/Japan and Aus/NZ. Because I can assure you that if you filter out everyone else the specs of the average steam user is much higher than the global average
>>
>>741939735
and what are the specs by country?

...THAT'S FUCKING RACIST YOU CHUD!
>>
>>741940004
That's a limited edition console, that's the exception not the rule.
>>741940150
>>741940251
The average PC is weaker than a GTX 1080 rig from a decade ago and this is at least twice as powerful.
>>
don't you guys think that maybe the problem is the game's terrible optimization?

Yes compare Monster Hunter Wilds to Monster Hunter World.
>>
>>741940383
Yes. The global average. It doesn't make sense to use the global average to design specs when you don't even sell to 90% of the shitholes dragging the average down. They should have used the average of the countries they actually sell these to.
>>
>>741940689
If your PC is weaker than a internet cafe then you got bigger problems.
>>
>>741940443
No

>>741939726
You think they have more than 50k available for the lottery?
>>
>>741939525
That got released years ago
>>
>>741939735
Those 70% can't afford steam machine
>>
>>741939726
Yeah thats how the steam deck and the controller came. You really don't want them to advertise whats in the box anyway with drivers stealing shit all the time.
>>
>>741939735
>>741941697
>Trust me bro data
It’s fake data that Valve controls, just like AI data claims it can do better than other AI.
>>
When will valve give me permission to buy one
>>
>>741943535
When the five interns finish manually verifying every qualified account.

Imagine using someone with tattoos as your hand model. Is there no professionalism left in this world?

bros I just want the controller. Sorry I was busy and didn't spam f5 on steam at exactly 10am to get one before they sold out immediately. So now I have to wait until December? Come the fuck on
>>
>the steamies schizo has been making 10+ threads a day about this
>>
>>741939726
When the steam deck released they had fancy boxes but too many Fedex drivers were stealing the decks and marking them as delivered so Valve neutered the boxes to make them blend in.

>tfw Gabe hasn't personally emailed me about my lottery results
it's so fucking over...
>>
So I want to get one but i'm not a steam user. I did make an account in prep for it but I can only get one at launch of my account is a few years old?? How the fuck is that fair?
>>
>>741946343
I was looking at my purchase history and it really surprised me that apparently I waited over seven months for a Steam Deck back when it released. I totally forgot. Thought it was like two or three months.

Pretty cool. But i cringed a little when he said "Tada!"
>>
>>741946343
Yeah well, if it had a normal supply they can say it sold out you know? With a normal constant supply everything valve makes in an obvious flop, while if it has exaggerated scarcity it is am obfuscated flop

Thank scalpers.

If your account was made before mid-April and you have made a purchase before that date you are eligible.
>How the fuck is that fair?
It isn't, it more or less defeats the point of the Steam Machine when they wanted to target the console audience. But after what happened with the Controller it's now clear that they either do this, or not a single non-bot account will be able to get one.

Why

My guess is that they only had a small amount of units for the Japs at launch.

Lmao it's the most poorfag bottom of the barrel, entry level product package I've seen, and yet they're asking a premium price for it.
>>
>>741946693
>>741947024
It's to prevent scalpers from making multiple accounts to enter the lottery and selling them on ebay or using them for parts.
Steam Machine also wasn't intended for the console audience primarily. That'd be nice but I doubt Valve expects any of its hardware to break into a mainstream when they've always been the most expensive option with the weakest specs since the Deck.
>>
>>741947934
Yeah, fuck scalpers
>>
>>741947248
Blame unmarried South Korean gamers.
The Steam Machine is optimized for wife acceptance factor, not pure price/performance alone. A small and quiet Steam Machine that looks good under your TV in the living room is less likely to upset your wife than a big PS5 or gaming PC next to your TV.
Why worry about how your spouse will feel about the gaming device you put in the living room if you don't have a spouse?
>>
>>741939735
Yeah while being 100% more expensive. You think little Timmy who plays roblox and fortnite on his 2013 laptop is going to pick up a $1049 device that doesn't even have a controller? More likely he will get an actually powerful gaming PC or continue to use shitty laptops.

Thats hilariously sad.
>>
>>741937919
>pro
Cute shape, small, can fit nicely in any living room withou looking weird

>cons
Price, hard to upgrade due to the tight design in a similar way laptops are hard to upgrade.

Nope Im gonna buy a new stbadard tower PC this or next year. Anyways I prefer to have a separate space to game and work instead of sitting always on the couch.

I don't think anyone's been emailed :(
