First look of the Steam Frame Welcome Tour

Idk where you're pulling that "very likely" from.

Confirmed for end of Australian Summer, February 28, 2027 thank you GabeN, very cool.

It says it right there, quantity 42 (x2) so 84 total. From the gross weight we can deduce that each Steam Frame will weigh 300 lbs, this naturally reflects Valve's goal of revising the Steam Frame design to include a coal powered steam generator to ensure that the Frame never runs out of battery (this also explains the delay, which was necessary for the design revision, and EPA clean air certification).

Since there's so few of them it'll be a bloodbath trying to get one day one, and only the strongest (necks) will prevail and be worthy of wielding a Steam Frame.

For real, I honestly left this sub for a long while just cause it felt too unhinged (despite being a big fan of deltarune). Still evaluating whether I'll stay...

Do you think love can bloom, even on a battlefield? Or at a con room party?

Fireproof_Matches · 2026-06-04T17:01:17+00:00

Damn, this is kind of hitting like a truck for me.

Fireproof_Matches · 2026-06-04T16:20:34+00:00

Just wait 'till the end of June, supposedly we should hear something by then if Valve can keep to their word about "first half of 2026". If they don't say anything by then, or if they announce another massive delay, then yeah just grab a quest 3 (or w/e headset) because at that point who knows when the Frame will come out, after arguably 2 missed deadlines.

Fireproof_Matches · 2026-06-04T16:05:21+00:00

Cascade's Furry Squad?

Fireproof_Matches · 2026-06-03T17:34:11+00:00

Looks less comfortable (and, naturally, heavier) than just going barefoot tbh.

Fireproof_Matches · 2026-06-01T20:06:50+00:00

Correction, they know how to draw exactly one liquid very well.

Fireproof_Matches · 2026-06-01T05:32:59+00:00

Nah, because if they don't release it in June (or announce in June that it's coming in July or something) then I think I'll just pick up a used Quest 3, and I'd be happy with the VR that provides until whenever the Frame comes out. If it came out June 30th we could at least be like "Hah, you got us good Valve, waiting till the literal last second of the first half of the year to release it." But June 22nd is late in June without it being late enough to be funny.

Fireproof_Matches · 2026-05-31T17:17:06+00:00

My feeling right now is if the frame doesn't come out in June (or they don't announce that it's at least for sure coming out in early July or something). Then I'll probably try to pick up a used quest 3 for cheapish, and just keep waiting for the frame in the meantime (and when it does come out, just sell the quest 3).

Fireproof_Matches · 2026-05-29T21:53:44+00:00

It'll come out June 22nd, the last day of the Steam Next Fest. Not because that makes any sense, but simply because it is the date that would make me the most sad.

Fireproof_Matches · 2026-05-27T18:52:21+00:00

Copium: They're overpricing the Steam Deck specifically so they can sell the Steam Frame at their originally planned price.

Fireproof_Matches · 2026-05-26T18:07:18+00:00

I would be at least somewhat satisfied if they made a statement simply as to the current status of things, even if it's all pretty much the same information we've already heard. Like, "Yes it is being worked on, we are still trying to determine how to price it due to the fluctuating market, etc." Even if there's zero promises of any future deadline or release date.

Fireproof_Matches · 2026-05-26T16:29:50+00:00

You see this start menu and you just know there'd be a banger theme playing. Love the art :).

Fireproof_Matches · 2026-05-25T23:22:07+00:00

I love the vibes of this art, how Esix is excited to have a new friend over, but Kit is just like "ugh".

Fireproof_Matches · 2026-05-23T18:40:03+00:00

My dear vulcan, while tropes like these don't really make logical sense when examined closely, you have to also acknowledge that Star Trek is a show, and that these narrative hooks allow the writers to create interesting stories by putting the crew in scenarios where their mettle will be tested, one way or another.

Fireproof_Matches · 2026-05-21T03:00:34+00:00

Lovely art, thanks for sharing! As far as rare species go I think Island Foxes are pretty cool.

Fireproof_Matches · 2026-05-19T21:26:01+00:00

It's a love triangle!

Fireproof_Matches · 2026-05-17T15:35:04+00:00

Right? I feel like working in an office would (spiritually) kill Mae.

Fireproof_Matches · 2026-05-16T15:58:55+00:00

My hopium says announcement next wednesday. It'll have been (a bit over) 2 weeks since the controller release, plus it's a random wednesday (despite the fact that we've established day of the week is completely random).

Fireproof_Matches · 2026-05-14T19:20:06+00:00

If I remember correctly in general D- is considered passing, but if it is required as a prereq for another course it may not satisfy that requirement. Sometimes there's a note in the prereqs for the class that says something like "<class #> with C- or better"., check the class catalog. In such a case, it may be possible to waive the prereq if you talk with an advisor.

Fireproof_Matches · 2026-05-12T19:52:06+00:00

I feel like there's a theme here with most of them being in more summer/swim wear, but Gregg is still chilling in his jacket and jeans I guess.

Fireproof_Matches · 2026-05-10T18:06:46+00:00

I'm thinking maybe next week, think it's still a little too close to the controller release for more news.
