Since the steam deck 2 will make use of the amazing gains, I wonder if people will really start considering the Deck as an alternative to Switch 2. There’s already a TON of overlap in the indy game scene. SO many of those release on both Steam and Switch.

Obviously the hardcore Nintendo IP fans will stick with Switch 2, but outside of that … ???

The Deck has really been a game changer!

Larian truly is one of the modern greats, so I’m happy for them to take however long they need for a break :) Come back refreshed and make DOS3, and take as long as they need! Sooooo love their games.

That’s not really true. When it first came out, before the ads, before the algorithm, when they embraced 3rd party apps with an open api, it was really great. It was full of techy personalities and interesting folks. Hashtags were fun to follow, live events were amazing in real time, so much more. That was before it got inundated with politics and celebrities though. I think that honeymoon phase only lasted a tiny while, then it all went downhill into the outrage machine pretty quickly. But for a quick minute there, it was glorious.

I didn’t know it was a flop at release. It’s in my top 5 of all time, so I’m super biased. Absolute legend of a film.

What’s the use case for this? Why would I want to replace the keyboard/trackpad with a screen? What will I display on that bottom part that’s more useful than having physical keys?

It’ll be hilarious in several years time when they’ve completely abandoned the entire VR multiverse concept, when they have to explain to people what their company name means.

This is exactly what I was going to say. The MT3 design is the only thing I care about from that site that’s long passed it prime. I have a Susuwatari as well as a Godspeed set and they are by far my all time favs. I haven’t even looked to buy a new set of caps in years now they are so amazing.

Please Corsair, DON’T SCREW WITH MT3 YOU BASTARDS.

I would be amazed if it sells for anywhere near 40. I bet it launches at closer to 60.
