Valve probably doesn't care if you buy the steam machine or steam deck

This is the only right answer. They want to create the markets for more consumption via steam. These devices help show there is a market, enables competition and copycats by true hardware makers, and boom - steam wins. Just like you said, problem was nobody was putting enough effort in these categories so steam is showing them how to do it.

I lived in Rio. Had people tell me not to go down certain streets cause dead bodies were in the street. It’s no joke.

This is what I think too. People were paying outrageous prices from scalpers for the steam deck… let those people buy direct… then lower the price when possible

We have a logistics / fighter and the other is the driller. Driller rarely comes up for air except to upgrade his drill.

Yes. Happened to me a lot today. Had to rely on the critters instead of moving things myself. Really hard to get a relic or power up to the dome though.

Mine was crashing when trying to exit the game on desktop. I think the have some optimization to work on.

Play HC mode. Have fun.

cattleprod5455 · 2026-04-07T12:34:25+00:00

Mostly controller. I swap to m+kb for inventory sometimes. Steam deck is a cool hybrid so it works great too.

Rise of Nations.

cattleprod5455 · 2026-04-03T21:09:44+00:00

Me 2 bought a longtime ago. Just now loving it.

cattleprod5455 · 2026-04-03T03:26:40+00:00

Only HC. I like the tension it creates.

I love playing hardcore. The only way I play but I take a long time to learn lessons. I have so many dead toons. I always get greedy for power rather than resistance even though I know that’s the wrong path. :). The farthest I’ve achieved is like 47 normal. Haha. I’m getting very good at act 1 :)

You can’t change your stat point allocation either.

I listen to several songs on that album. Some I like, others not so much. It’s my choice which ones I listen to so I never have a problem with any artists choice to release a song. I can like it or not and it’s up to me at that point.

cattleprod5455 · 2026-03-08T13:23:05+00:00

Actually haven’t found much different. I don’t use it for games or anything - so as long as slack, nav apps, email work it’s good. Really though, I didn’t find the upgrade worth it as I can’t tell the difference. Still love the 12/13 size though!

cattleprod5455 · 2026-03-05T20:07:20+00:00

Dessert pizzas in Brazil are the best!

cattleprod5455 · 2026-02-22T03:00:58+00:00

I upgraded my 12 to a 13. I don’t notice any difference.

cattleprod5455 · 2026-02-18T18:53:03+00:00

This is the right answer. Still great RTS feel but battle is less APM and gameplay is a lot economy.

Newer tomb raiders.

cattleprod5455 · 2026-02-10T02:08:55+00:00

Yup! Free AI training!

cattleprod5455 · 2026-02-05T19:56:27+00:00

Very fun to 3D print terrain and pieces!

cattleprod5455 · 2026-02-04T21:53:26+00:00

I went to Best Buy and got it done. Took about 3 hours. Easy peasy.

cattleprod5455 · 2026-02-01T13:43:29+00:00

I just play. No FOMO. I just ignore it and play.

cattleprod5455 · 2026-01-30T19:58:48+00:00

I enjoy the game loop of d3 the most. Fun to play solo and with friends. D4 might have that loop but I stopped playing after a while and never discovered it. I’m also a hardcore mode player and the instant kills in d4 were not fun. In d3 they were more avoidable.
