This is the best set out of the Dota 2 event. Except I dont play MH, I dont play techies, and I dont want to grind X amount of games to craft it. I still might play because the hunting log concept is fun and just a better version of the WK Arcana quest. I know you all wanted to know this.
It is definitely very funny when I play Crystal Maiden and I have all 5 players hunting me

Steamlink was abandoned too early, I had one and it was frustrating but was 100x easier than other gamecasting options they moved to app-based, but then smartTVs and androidTV kept rugpulling them, and in the end they sorta needed it to not even attempt to work over 2.4GHz wifi, leading to them just dropping development of it. The in-home streaming market is WAAAYYYY bigger than people think (look at Playstation Portal), being able to easily cast to a 2nd screen/device elsewhere in your house. Steam needs to simplify this, and them not releasing a Steam-branded TVstick is a little disappointing. If the SteamCube is super portable and boots fast (like the deck) it will work, you can technically do in-home streaming using just the deck currently but it's not ideal because pairing an external controller and non-natively scaling is kinda underbaked.
In home streaming between devices is definitly huge, idk about casting to a TV. I dont think a firestick adjacent device would be enough to run anything meaningful smoothly, but i could definitely be wrong. I think one of my TVs had a Steam app, but it was so dog shit I cant tell you what it actually did, maybe im just making that up. Also while I dont really like controllers, i think theyre just better in some games. My only wish is that if I'm going to spend 70 dollars or more on a controller it was actually made for the hands of a normal human and not like a tiny baby 12 year old.

I completely forgot about the remote play feature after using it years ago and youre right. When it worked it was pretty good, but it was overall kind of a laggy mess. I used it for like Tekken Bowling and then never again after

Also VR will always just bee to big of a hurdle for most people to get into and there are not many VR games that I think are super great, albeit i have not played VR in 3 years so maybe a lot of stuff has released thats cool without me noticing

low-latency (in-home) game streaming actually works pretty well and requires very little processing issue is that smart home/TV stuff is notoriously bad for high-throughput over wifi, and devices which can take a direct ethernet connection often throttle it or don't tag packets correctly
Spooky Phijkchu games
so a dedicated device works really well, an app leaves you sorta at the mercy of the manufacterer (who usually only have to plan arround a buffered TLS stream that AT MOST will require 2mbps

Part of me wants to say it would be 700>, but i remember from the original Valve Index launch they were not selling the headset for too much of a net gain. I think they'd probably be willing to go low in an attempt to get more people on, especially those who might already have establish libraries on Playstation

Idk off the top of my head, but VR has always interested me, and I know before I even buy any VR specific games I have a bunch of games that have VR stuff in addition to their normal versions
Polar_ games
Yea, there arent many VR games i think would be good enough to make me buy another headset. I can name maybe 4 games I thought were cool. Again, maybe something really cool came out in the last 3 years I missed.

I only have a steam deck to play video games, so I'd probably actually get the gabencube a few months after it releases and the reviews seem fine.

I will be way more interested in the steam machine if the deck can be used as a controller for it while also allowing the deck screen to work
mint games
