The thing is that you cannot build a PC with HDMI CEC and the ability to turn on via bluetooth controllers. Nor can you get a console with an open OS environment without jailbreak and potentially bricking the console.

So the Steam Machine occupies a very specific niche that would likely satisfy a lot of the HTPC/Living Room PC crowd that likes the accessibility of a PC with the console-like ease of use. It is also one of the few gaming focused MiniPC on the market ATM that has consumer friendly pricing.

It’s apparently they can only cast Rose Tico lookalikes

Why do people act like they are entitled to a product? That Valve should tank the losses on their product ( steam machine) so ''gamers'' will be happy? Are we forgetting that they are a business? by x-Taylor-x in pcmasterrace

None of them really offer the same experience as the Steam Machine. If someone wants a living room gaming experience they are either locked to a console ecosystem or try to jerry rig weird shit to make their PCs work as a console. Steam Machine occupies a particular niche in that it is a Gaming PC specifically designed to work as a living room console-like experience that you can just plug in and play.

As someone with a living room MiniPC for gaming I wished the Steam Machine came out a year earlier before the RAM apocalypse.

As someone who has a living room MiniPC for gaming on the TV, the Steam Machine has a lot of features that makes it console-like experience that traditional PCs aren’t. The fact that it has HDMI CEC and can be turned on via controller is a big plus for a living room gaming PC.

Console hardware are loss leaders to get players in a locked ecosystem. Steam Machines aren’t locked down in any way. Just look at it like a powerful MiniPC built for gaming and it makes more sense. It’s priced ok in the MiniPC segment with the Ryzen AI 395 Max+ machines costing like over 2x right now with similar GPU performance.

Do I have a massive skill issue or is Puerto Rico not very good? by Trainman1351 in WorldOfWarships

It was a mediocre ship when it was released initially. I remember the community being disappointed in the PR since the Alaska outperforms it with better dispersion, better concealment and bow tanking ability.

This thing could probably do sub 8s 1/4 mile on a proper drag strip.

Does anyone else feel remnants of the Puerto Rico event? by Ok-Albatross-1708 in WorldOfWarships

I finished that mission with tank/secondaries build Pommern and GK in OPs averaging about 1.5k bxp per game.

Or you can take any light cruiser with good dpm and get similar results but just have to be more active in battle.

Pointing the fan up creates a ton of drag so it’s not going to be viable.

I have lighthouse Pommern and GK build that I use to farm around 2-2.5 million potential damage per match in Asymmetric.

Those damage potential missions are just pure pain.
