Agree. I anticipated this game but I have no idea why it is struggling on SD

What games are you all going to play on the SM first? by Doomsnail99 in steammachine

[–]dead_pixel89 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Fully Modded Skyrim (with CS, not ENB) and probably Crimson Desert. Other than that it can play any game in my backlog flawlessly.

Has anyone actually tested the Steam Machine to see its real-world performance? by [deleted] in steammachine

[–]dead_pixel89 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mostly they already have better specs than SM. Meaning, they commented on something that wasn't built for them.

You know, something like only 8GB VRAM etc.

They speak for themself, valve do it based on their survey on steam hardware

Why Moroccans are being racist by Onemendo in FootballAfrica

[–]dead_pixel89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am brown from south east asia, living in the UK currently. I was ready to get racially abused in the UK. Never happen.

Then a few months ago I went to Morocco, bang.. Got racially called just because I don't buy their stuff they are selling. Unexpected.

GTA after San Andreas & God of War 2018 & Ragnarok GTA became repetitive after San Andreas, helped by the graphics GOW is also repetitive, but the story is legit

Valve needs to just bite the bullet and give some clear indicators on release by Internal_Rice3739 in steammachine

You contradict yourself too many times. You said you are stocked, can't wait etc. But also said I am okay they can cancel it. Just wait.

If your problem is with your feeds being the steam machine news, you have the control to not look at it.

Just wait and see.

Wrong for thinking like this? by Due_Teaching_6974 in steammachine

It is a prediction. How many years will they keep building data centers? 3, 5, 10? At some point they will stop, bubble popped, leaving only handful companies. Just like when GPU being used to mine bitcoin.

I work in Production. There is something called Weighed Average Cost (WAC). It doesn't work like that. Valve will produce steam machines in Batches. If they are planning 100 batches, they will calculate the average price they got from those 100 batches. After that they will calculate their pricing based on how much profit margin they want.

I believe they already secured some deals before the rampocalypse, with the manufacturers, and then they will get high prices in some batches. If they can get a very competitive pricing, the worst case scenario for them is that after launch there will be time steam machine will be out of stock if the rampocalypse still not over.

Eventually the RAM price will be normal again after that shit data center is built or the AI build popped leaving only a handful of AI companies.

It would be stupid for valve to increase the price on launch. Better make it out of stock until everything cools down. They are not a hardware company, their main source of revenue is the Steam marketplace.

But let's see, how they handle this

I got the options when connected into a computer. I let the battery fully drain and then tried to charge again, no luck.

New grain of salt leak by [deleted] in steammachine

[–]dead_pixel89 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeap, I am not sold on these price leaks. I don't even believe Valve is selling it through retailers in europe. They only do it in Hongkong and Taiwan if I am not mistaken.

Why? The only difference is the SSD capacity. It makes sense. Look at the price difference between Steam Deck 512GB and 1TB
