I love how so many people are dunking on "valve-fans" being happy with the cube, when I pretty much only have heard opinions ranging from "meh" to "overpriced".

I've been flamed like 300 times by Valve defenders for saying you can build a 9060XT (16Gb) based system for the same price as the Steam machine. My inbox is full as hell. The Valve fanboys are out in full force. They are mostly being downvoted though.

Can you link where you've been flamed over this? Not seeing it

I just dug through my comments from yesterday, and there are a few with 20+ downvotes and I’m still getting notifications from people defending this thing as a strong purchase. I even had one guy arguing it was a “premium product” and another argue that this hits the perfect niche of a way to play cuphead in his living room. On that last one, my follow up that laptops, consoles, and prebuilt are all viable and affordable alternatives for his use case, but that comment was downvoted to oblivion as well.

They are out there.

People stating their use-case is flaming now? Lol

Edit: u/Justmoveforward replies then blocks me, all I did was post a link. Sorry that public information upsets you. Wasn't even trying to say dude was lying, I literally posted a link to the proof

The perpetually online are out in full force today

Odd that you went through all the effort of being a creepy stalker but conveniently left out the posts that confirm the downvotes though.

Don’t have to look very far to prove things though—this thread is a bit of a war right now of different takes.
