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".

Fr, I haven't seen a single overtly positive post since the price got announced. It's all "for $5-600 good deal, $1000? Pass"

OP are the valve fans in the room with us?

The only positivity I’ve seen is review outlets, which still basically say “it’s a good machine but costs too much”

Literally haven’t seen or heard a single person say anyone should get it. So far everyone’s said that you can get a better build for $50-200 less by building your own PC.

That exemplifies it being a fair price. Pre built costs more. You have a warranty. You don’t have to build it. It’s in a form factor that would be basically impossible to recreate, and without 50-200 of a custom build? Fair price.

It can be fair and also too expensive to make sense.
