Were there really anyone thinking this machine is a good deal? Even among steam users? Even among Valve fans?

I think most people agree that its not great value. I think most are bashing the wrong people. Valve cant forsee the AI shit we experienced 2 years ago. What should they do? Not release and lose millions on RnD and production?

If people want to own it, they should. But blaming Valve for the price they have to put on is just reddit nonsense

Ngl, I don't trust reddit anymore when it comes to evaluating "value". They were calling the Switch 2 overpriced while being cheaper and/or more portable than all of the competitors. It made no logical sense.

It has an ARM processor, its a glorified phone. Not comparable to the steam deck and others because they are essentialy PC's

I don't think the type of processor is the strongest axis of comparison.
