  • Steam Machine not available in my country. What would you do?

    Jump

  • That’s clearly something that I’m already doing and enjoying.

    Still I need something more powerful for sim racing even if all my other games work well docked.

    But yeah the Deck can be surprisingly good when docked, especially if like me you don’t mind 720p and 30fps👍

  • Thanks for the links. I’ll have a deep look into these!

  • Do you think I would have to wait so much?

    I’m not in a rush but 6 months would probably be too much.

  • The form factor isn’t really important, but the fact that I could just buy it and not think about its specs was a big plus.

    Jump

  • I don’t need more power than the PS5 so the Steam Machine would be enough.

    This being said, the upgradability of a prebuilt would be great, as long as it ain’t too noisy and power hungry.

  • I’d not want to take the risk of paying and then being told that the Machine can’t be delivered to my house.

  • Have you ever been disappointed with Linux?

    Jump

  • Well then I’ll have to try it one day and report about the experience.

  • Have you ever been disappointed with Linux?

    Jump

  • I’ve never tried it, even if I know people are using it.

    Still it’s not an easy solution like the one people are using when upgrading from an old to a new iPhone.

    I know Linux doesn’t have Apple behind, but it’s better than Windows/Mac in every other way, so why not try to improve this?

  • Have you ever been disappointed with Linux?

    Jump

  • Yes because Linux encourages you to make it your OS by customizing it, but it’s not easy as it should to create a backup of all that work so that you can easily deploy it on another computer.

    I know that Clonezilla works in some situations or that NixOS coulb be a solution, but it’s not should be easier.

    Rule 4 of Steam TOS

    Jump

  • Well that’s why I’m trying to share my gaming between GOG for the DRM free safety they provide and Steam for all the good they’ve done for Linux gaming.

    They all have their downsides and with Steam you don’t own your games.

  • GNOME 51 Alpha Desktop Environment Is Now Available for Public Testing

    Jump

  • That’s why I’m now trying to be wise enough and wait a few months before upgrading.

  • GOG seemingly shares that they are considering physical PC 'big box' games. Maybe?

    Jump

  • I’m a vegetarian, using my muscular bike a lot and trying to buy as much local food as possible, so I’m trying to do what I can.

    I’m sorry if I offended people, by saying these physical dics would be an ecological problem for me. I agree that just a few people would probably buy them and it wouldn’t be a big deal.

    It’s just that, as long as we have a DRM free digital games, I don’t really see what physical games would bring except easier resale (and collection/decoration).

    If it helps GOG bring better features and games, I’m not really against it then, even if I wouldn’t buy their physical games.

  • GOG seemingly shares that they are considering physical PC 'big box' games. Maybe?

    Jump

  • I don’t think we should create more waste in our world, so I’m voting against it.

    I’d want GOG to focus more on Linux and on getting more games on their store.

  • PlayStation’s Physical Media-Free Future Isn’t Just Concerning, It’s Offensive

    1. I was a happy Playstation user through every generation, starting with the first one
    2. I got a Playstation 5 1-2 years after its launch
    3. After being a Linux user for years, I decided I could also try Linux gaming so I bought a used LCD Steam Deck early 2025
    4. My Playstation 5 started gathering dust and was only used for demanding racing games like Gran Turismo 7 or Nba Streaming
    5. Saw the Steam Machine announcement and started having a dilemna. Decided I'd look at its price before making a decision to fully switch to Linux gaming
    6. Saw the Steam Machine US price and decided I'd get it only if it's less than CHF 1000.- in my country
    7. Saw the Playstation disc removal and decided that no matter what, I ain't getting another Playstation.

    Thank you Sony for making my decision easier! I love your games and would probably buy some on PC if I could know for sure that they wouldn't be taken away.

    I ain't selling the Playstation 5 as I'll probably buy a few more exclusives (on disc) for it, but it'll probably keep gathering dust and being mostly used as an Nba league pass streaming machine.

    Now the removal of physical discs ain't really the problem, but if you combine this with shady practices from Sony, it'll be GOG (and Steam when not available) all the way for me.

  • GOG when available, but what should I choose between PS5 physical and Steam when not?

    Jump

  • Then they are just making my future choices easier because I for sure ain’t buying a discless Playstation 6.

    It's a peaceful life

    Jump

  • A Steam Deck is made for you with such behavior.

    It guves me the occasion to play all the titles I ignored over the years.

    Still I need something powerful to play sim racing titles as it’s the only category where I can’t just play old games.

  • Single player games

    Jump

  • Sometimes I force myself to try multiplayer, but other than Gran Turismo, Last Of Us factions and Gears of War, I never found how it could be considered as enjoyable.

    And even these games are way better as single player games.

    It’s also making my move to Linux gaming way easier.
