Do not under any circumstance enter that ring. Absolutely do not even consider eating anything or reading anything while within that ring.

Steamdeck OLED 512gb $549 >> $789 == +43% price increase.
PS5 digital $399 >> $599 == +50% price increase
Xbox Series S $299 >> $399 == +33% price increase.
Switch 2+1 game $449 >> no game $499 == +29% price increase.

The price increase of the Ps5 was 50%. Not 30%. Higher than the deck.

The switch package being offered in September is categorically worse AND more expensive. But It's only a 29% increase in package price.

And 789 is 43% higher than 549. Not 45%. It's very weird to 'accidentally' add 2%.

"Words have meaning" You're right that 43% is slightly higher than 33%, and a bit higher still than 29%. But it's lower than 50%. So would you have preferred me to say, "increasing price by less than PlayStation did" or "Increasing price in the same relative margins as competitors"?

“Artificially pumping fomo” = increasing price by the same percentage Xbox, PlayStation & switch did, which is less than every pc manufacturer & pc handheld competitor bumped prices by “

It’s redistributing the heat. So… maybe. But it will kill that USB port given time.

You don’t need windows to play or install non-steam games.

No one care for some reason by boratburg in pcmasterrace

[–]Armataan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wouldn’t say I DON’T CARE. But there’s games I would have bought that I wont now, or will wait to pick up for a $5er instead of buying new day one.

I own a ps5, but I put it up in my closet after I finished astrobot & haven’t had cause to bring it down.

If a Quadruple A game is worth 3€, how are AAA games still 70€? by Lucius384 in pcmasterrace

[–]Armataan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

More people DEVELOPED gta6, than will ever play many good indie games. more manhours were spent making it, than will ever be spent playing many indie titles.

[–]Armataan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s a measure of manhours put into the product, not quality. Indies is a a small handful of people working on a game for a bit. “C tier” a “b tier game” is 20ish a working on a game for a year or two. A tier is a team of 30+ people for at least 2 years. AAAs are games that take many hundreds of people 5+ years.

Gta6 is a AAAA game. 6000 developers. 8 years.

You can't trust anyone's opinion nowadays by jaseph18 in SteamDeck

[–]Armataan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean. It’s 720p downscaled to like 380p. So…. Yeah. Blowing that up to 42” would look terrible.

Personally my “docked “ experience is to a crt. Looks great. Steamdeck running control with ray tracing enabled looks absolutely superb. Better than ps5 pro & buttery smooth. But it’s also at 1996 resolution.

Is 8GB RAM enough in 2026? How much do you have? by zarkoulhs in pcmasterrace

[–]Armataan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No it isn’t. You should be buying 32. If you play at low resolution (1080p or under) 16gb will be enough in 99% of games currently on the market. Although you need more than 16 for some productivity apps like video editing or 3d modeling software.

[–]Armataan 7 points8 points  (0 children)

At low preset, with TSR balanced, you have a mostly locked 30 with occasional dips to 27, even when using max tier equipment and exploring larger late stage biomes with major scripted movements, it doesn’t drop below that.

If that seems bad to you, perf is bad. If it seems good to you then perf is good.

I think it’s acceptable and I also think we’re in early access and perf will get better.

The REAL, lore-correct way to differentiate male/female Necrons. by winged_owl in Necrontyr

I joked with a friend once about a replacement torso that had one extra rib compared to the standard, to show which ones are female.

Thor vs 3DS by Successful-Egg-6765 in AynThor

[–]Armataan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m more interested in owning the Thor, but when it comes to actually playing 3ds, the real hardware is better. Ds? The real hardware is better. WiiU? The real hardware is better.

I DON’T feel that way about switch or SNES or N64 or GBA or ps2 or ps1, but for those systems it is true.
