Until someone come up with things like sword art online, they gonna flop lmao

Blu-rays can store up to 128gb so you need only 3 disxs for a 300gb game...

And if 3 discs are too much for ya, they can put in there even a modern storage device

It doesn't really make a huge difference tbf, also, most of the work is done by a few countries (see India, China and many african countries), countries like South Korea or Italy actually have the opposite problem, there aren't enough kids

Living in europe is def more chill than USA but i agree that it's been romanticised too much lmao

except some countries

Checks out

I didn't watch the LTT video yet, how much they cheaped out to make it way better? I made a build too and couldn't get anything better for the same price od the steam machine lmao

(I tried to make an ITX tho)

Games aren't a physical object, it doesn't take 30€ to host a single game so it's really not a problem to make discounts on games

I don't defend a company because i like it, i hate corpos but this time y'all are saying no sense

I feel like you have never been nor seen from afar the situation in most southern europe countries huh

Check your family tree! Some countries grant you citizenship automatically if you have, or had, a relative who holds citizenship

And it's not even a random or strong password! LLMs can't randomly generate 'em

"Hell of a premium"? The steam machine cost roughly like the build i made to match their power

Well, magic is usually "Mana" or some equivalent, in many stories you have to build up a mana reserve to use magic, it look like the body produce it or absorb it naturally, i'd lean on the option that mana is absorbed because in many stories the characters are way faster to fill up the mana reserves than fill up the energy reserves and usually they also explain that you can find mana everywhere and in the air so my guess is that we absorb it using our lungs or skin contact

So they have ""infinite energy"" (which is not infinite but it's so big that we don't care about it finishing soon, like the heat in the Earth’s crust) Probably there is also a natural process that release new mana like the decay of organic matter or some plant or bacteria that synthesise mana

A PS5 pro blows this out of the water for a lower price

Why everyone us this stupid argument? The PS5 pro cost less because sony will get back the money with the games they sell on the playstation store and the monthly subscription you are forced to pay if you wanna play online

The playstation plus essential is €70 for a year, let's say you will pay for 5 years, it will be €4350 sum it to the €898 of the console and you get €1248 spent

The steam machine with 2TB is €1359 (or 1428 if you really want the controller) and you can use it forever, run old ass games with emulators, mod games, play pirated games, use it how you want, even for productivity and without any subscription

Do you see why Valve can't sell hardware for less like Sony does?

This is NOT a console! It's a PC that offer a plug-n-play expirience for who don't want to build a PC and then config it!

You just sit on the couch, turn on the gabecube with the controller and it give the same plug and play expirience of a console but with the freedom of a computer, you won't spend 5/10 minutes to find the TV remote, turn on the TV, walk to the computer to turn it on, select the HDMI source on the TV, take a keyboard and a mouse to open steam, and THEN play.

You aren't the target audience if you don't care about all this

😭🙏

Anything that brain of yours can think of can be found

And it's still not OK to find your own gender by compounding the stereotypes

Someone may like the stereotypes on themselves and it's okay tbh, i see nothing wrong with it, the problem occour when they actively promote it and force it on others.

Ooh my bad, i though it was the active users on the platform XD

It was originally to be sold for a price around $750 then some idiot with AI decided to hoard all the RAM and now prices of RAM and SSD are 200% higher

Anyway, the main sellin point is that it's plug and play, low power and silent, all packed in a 15 cm³ (~6 inch³) form factor

I made a build too tryin to get similiar specs to the steam machine for an ITX form factor I got a similiar result, tho, my build is probably more expensive because pc part picker doesn't have prices for the nvme and the PSU lol https://pcpartpicker.com/list/j4n34g

Valve added a microSD card reader in the machine, it ain't much but it's sure handy

You wouldn't get a plug and play effiecent build that isn't ugly asf in your living room tho

You can make an ITX but their prices scale up way faster than ATX
