This is an extremely harsh assessment. But I respect your opinion.

I came here to say this. Which is weird.

You don’t control what happens in a movie. Everyone knows it’s in most movies. And most movies don’t show mych. But if you play a game and someone walks into the room and thats on the screen they are 100 gonna ask or wonder wtf you are doing. I believe that’s about it.

I agree 100%. I cant imagine myself playing and my son comes and asks me what I’m playing and… Just no. It has to be very, very optional if ok. But even then it just feels unnecessary to me.

Probably Minecraft with my 5 year old. Yesterday and today. Been loving it.

I just didn’t like the complexity to get in house game streaming to work. Moonlight/sunshine should work. But I also wanna be able to just remote my entire desktop. Do much easier on windows still.

I agree in theory. But most of us won’t do that because we aren’t familiar reusing things in this way. As in, it won’t be reused. Not because it’s hard, only because we won’t be arsed to. And it’s sad.

I actually couldn’t. Oh well, it’s in the past anyways :)

I haven’t tried. That’s not for me. I’d rather just buy the game or pirate it. Both are much easier.

Doesn’t really work if I’ve had a subscription before, or used said free month some time in the past.

Only issue here is to flag it’s on Twitch Prime so everyone has the right expectation.

The WiiU tablet wasnt very portable. Once you left the room where your WiiU Base was plugged into a TV it started acting up. You basically had to be in the same room but not he allowed to use the TV. I’m afraid that type of technology probably hasn’t moved forward fast enough to try anything else but wifi. It’s a sad day.

At least you can use these as a more expensive controller as well, right? To play with your friends on the tv. Surely? Right?

273!? Oh crap. I didn’t even realise pricing will be off for us in europe. I’d be surprised if they sold more than 1000 units to Sweden.

Quite the jump from 199 but add another 140 dollars and you get a machine that handles Ps5 remote play, emulation, playing games locally and streaming from your PC. Sure the screen is worse but a Steam Deck is so much more value for money. This seems like a small return for quite a lot of money.

Edit: I forgot about Game Pass. Beep.

They are, by a large margain.

I remember buying my first hard drive for 2000 sek which is arround 180 dollars. So that’s actually more expensive than 1tb today. That was more than 20 years ago but I only got 20gb worth of space. A few years later and we should arrive at the 20 years-ago-mark which made me write 50. I def wouldn’t say most people had 200gb hard drives 20 years ago. If they did no one could complain 20 years later if BG3 would still fit on that drive.

If it’s that easy I agree!

Windows have performance issues compared to Linux though. Better on paper doesn’t mean better performance.

A 1tb Steam Deck-sized NVMe drive is about 120 bucks right now. Not cheap. But not insanely prices either.

Requires even more work and even more budget. I understand the problem but it has always been there. There are people now who can’t afford 1tb and there were people 20 years ago who couldn’t afford 50gb when that was the equivalent. This won’t ever go away. And it’s fault by consumers who expect bigger and better things for less and less money. You can only optimize so much on your budget. I still understand this is a problem it’s just not one that will get solved anytime soon, which is a shame.
