If it helps, you can 3D print your own hardware nowadays

Personally, I’m hoping they release a B380. I’d love to put one in my media server for transcoding

Dude, no. A Raspberry Pi 5 is less powerful than a Steam Deck across the board. The only reason it could run DOOM at 4k in that video is because the guy hooked it up to an external GPU, and that external GPU costs several times more that a new Raspberry Pi.

Also, the Raspberry Pi 5 doesn’t come with an SSD. If you’re going to build your own boxed similar to what you’re proposing, you’d need to buy a Raspberry Pi + SSD + case + interface cards between the parts that’ll cost an addition $50-60. You’re looking at around $300 for parts. Any commercial product would also have to factor in labor and some margin for profits.

At this point you’re looking at a product that costs about the same as a base-model Steam Deck that isn’t portable and has less computing power for playing games. Virtually no one would buy that.

If Valve did release a non-portable PC, they might use a higher-power version of the Steam Deck’s APU at similar price points to the Steam Deck, filling the space that used to be occupied by Intel NUCs. But whatever they do, a non-portable system from them cannot be weaker than a Steam Deck. It would be completely rejected by most customers on that alone. And it cannot be dependent on an external GPU since those are a waste of money compared to just building a PC.

IE: 140€

Dude, you can’t even build a Raspberry Pi 5 based Retropie for that price. And the most you could run is emulated Gamecube games

Are you using Steam’s integrated streaming, or Moonlight/Sunshine? The latter has less lag and can handle higher resolutions, but is a pain to set up

Please don’t fuck a chicken

Someone really needs to develop a way to transfer money without relying on banks. It’s insane that banks get this power to force their own morals on everyone, even when the affected transfers are completely legal

Or at least publicly traded corporations

I’ll be honest, a Horizon MMO sounds like an awful idea in the first place

Are you saying the shutdown is short-sighted, or the idea of a Horizon MMO is?

Plus, if you join any large server you tend to be inundated with constant notifications from various channels. Imagine joining a large subreddit like r/memes and getting a notification every time someone makes a post or comment

Jesus, you’re an unpleasant person.

Also, Valve isn’t relevant towards this conversation. They’re not the ones that made Ubisoft into a dumpster fire.

I’m not the one getting worked up an letting it ruin my day.

I was just browsing Lemmy for a few minutes while visiting my parents and eating soup. You on the other hand have been acting like you spent Christmas alone because noone can stand you

Do you seriously have nothing better to do on a holiday than just bash Valve? Jfc, go outside and touch grass you terminally online neckbeard

Pokemon is a rip off of Dragon Quest and Shin Megami Tensei.
