This is coming from one of the more dedicated PC gamers as well as steam customer. Valve fucked up so bad with the platform before it even released. This move is practically worse than all of the EA's COMBINED! Who the hell wants an inferior PC that plays less games while getting bad reputation in the process just because some dickish OEM's decided to jack up the price of their steam machines ? I see no future in the platform cause most devs will just ignore it like any other linux distro. SteamOS is irrelevant right now in gaming and will still suck in the future. Hell there's probably more reason for me to buy a WII U than getting a steam machine. This thing will literally fail so hard like no other platform I've seen so far. I want to believe in Valve but pulling stupid shit like that just makes me lose faith in them. If Valve wants my respect again I implore them to stop development of steamOS and call off the OEM's to cancel the god damned platform for GOOD. |
No thats the beauty of it. It costs Valve next to nothing and they lose little when it flops but gain a lot if it succeeds. Plus I doubt Valve will be affected PR wise by the steam machines. Idea with potential, poor execution.

How is there potential when it's going to be littered with nothing but low quality games ? Quality matters in gaming and I wouldn't have considered PC to be a quality platform for gaming before the millenium mainly due to the fact a lot of the games were low quality. It's only when PC gaming got better when consoles started to share their games and vice versa. It will not succeed at all ...
