The official valve price is so good. I bought a Gray import and it was worth it a year or so ago when I bought it. Been absolutely great.

Sorry. Can’t upvote your post coz its on 66 and this really does give “execute order 66” vibes

Honestly this would be hella funny if it werent so sad

Gotta earn fast

Fucking finally. Worst year to miss Pax. I’m just glad they finally released it out here. Will absolutely buy myself an oled to replace my lcd

I like to think that he forgets, keeps trying and then makes a new post about it

This. Please more upvotes on this comment. The fact that steam let’s you sell steam keys on third part sites with no profit incentive is crazy to me. Honestly valve feels like the only good company around being blamed for all the shit they don’t do

Absolutely this. The 30% split is not only standard (xbox, PlayStation, Nintendo) but it has also hasn’t changed in a VERY long time. Any and all increases in price of games are entirely independent of the cut. Also the cut offers competition (such as the absolutely horrendous epic store) who can offer a smaller split (which they do) to remain an attractive option for game publishers. But do they drop the price on epic??? NO. It’s the game publishers greed not the store they publish on driving up prices. And blaming steam is not just looking a gift horse into the mouth but beating it with a baseball bat.

This is exactly it. Fuck all of those news articles because they all try to make out steam as the bad guy. Steam is the best of guys based on the fact that it let’s you sell steam keys, which let me remind you THEY MAKE NO PRFIT ON on other platforms and all they ask is that you don’t sell them dirt cheap?

VALVE PAYS FOR THE BANDWIDTH THAT DOWNLOADING THE GAME USES. Honestly the fact that they are willing to absorb all the costs while making none of the profit is absolutely mind blowing.

Thanks. That should also be fairly easy to automate. Might set it up as a powershell script so I have it on every Windows pc I am forced to use. Much appreciated kind stranger

Source please. I need this as I am forced to use Windows for work. Where is the registry key I need to change mlord

Drift has nothing to do with what people are doing. It occurs naturally from any dust or debris that makes it into the controller. Obviously the better care you take the less likely it is but it’s not user error causing stick drift.

Eh. You would think. But it could well have been about saving face more than actually wanting to do good. Think about how many people would have gone through the paperwork and trouble of getting their joycon repaired when buying a new pair is so much easier

As if they were willing to give up that revenue stream in any case. It makes them too much money.

The principle of “do one thing and do it well” still applies to SystemD as it builds into many different applications which each do one thing only. The problem is that you require most of them to have a fully functioning unit system which makes it function more like 1 big product rather than many smaller ones as it actually is.

A lot of the hate I feel started with Pottering which extended to SystemD. And while it certainly had downsides it had less than the other i it Systems which is also why It has become the new norm.

Yeah it’s one line of code to check the user agent but how many lines of code is it to customise each visit to the store front with only content as curated by the device the user is using. Even just user based curation is a lot of work and hard yet they do it because it draws sales. Why the hell would they spend all this work to not show you things. The steamdeck banner is probably considered as part of any promotion internally to the system so not showing it would require filtering every single promotion based on user agent and user logged in.

Trust me. It’s never just “one line of code”

Its a lot of work to customise the store for every bit of hardware. The same way that the store suggests pc games if you browse on Mac. Remember, the store Is the same for everyone

Yesss let’s bring back the tarnation memes. I loved those
