They don’t sell gaming pcs on steam
They do. The steam deck.
Ah yes, costs more than the ps5 but has no 4K, no thanks
Ps5 (no disk) €448 + tv €250 Steamdeck old €569
lol now we’re pretending we have to buy a new tv to own a console? I mean I can add random items to the steam deck price too, computer monitor $200, wireless game pad $100, joystick grips $10! It’s silly isn’t it?
No you can't? Do you even know what the steam deck is? It's a hand held gaming device, like the Nintendo Switch. Adding a computer monitor to the steam decks price tag is nonsensical. Like the Switch you'd be using a TV if your hooking it into something. A wireless controller? Why? It's a steam deck it has a controller built in. Joystick grips? The fact you think those are needed goes to show how shit the standard console controllers are lmao.
and don't forget repairability - i recently broke the digitizer of my steam deck, i just went to ifixit and ordered a new one for 100€. you can repair everything on that thing with a simple screwdriver, which is whack
Fair 🤷
We can do the same with steam sales, itch games, games downloaded from Patreon.
Soon™️
What they're saying is that the lower cost of games balances out the cost of the PC. Accessories are cheaper too, and there's no subscription fees to play online.
And like another person pointed out, you can spend the cost of a PS5 on a PC and you will get similar performance. You only have to pay more if you want better graphics than what the PS5 can do. It really is that simple.
