I can already run cyberpunk on my pc. I want this so I can now see it in VR in higher quality than my current headset, wirelessly, with a much less bulky format.

The latency issue looks completely solved. It has a custom 6ghz wifi connection and they have an eye tracking foveated compression that is apparently flawless. It reduces the bit rate where you aren't looking to reduce latency, and from what I heard is completely imperceptible.

I think people are forgetting that the steam machine is going to ship with a controller as well. I think they have to split their controller production between people buying just the controller and the amount of steam machines they are producing as they get ready to launch that.

As someone who works in retail, even our best sales at our store will still make us around a 10% profit. Our normal GP for items sits around 30% to 40%, so while it is less than that we almost never actually sell things for a real loss.

No but it seems to have like 40 hours on a good charge and can charge and play at the same time with the puck. So I kinda doubt it will be an issue. And it's fully replaceable with no glue and just a few screws? That seems completely fine to me.

I'm sure this will turn into a big industry for them once the war ends.

That build was a year old. It probably is missing a ton of optimizations that happen late in development so I would say it would still be nearly impossible to tell.

The number of games that won't start on deck because it uses Linux is incredibly small. If a game won't run well it has little to do with the deck using Linux instead of Windows.
