Sony hate thread

You can't appeal to both of these groups at once.
I dunno, the Deck got pretty close. I'm mainly talking about stuff like Deck Verified, as telling console gamers that "yes this game runs on your box we'll pick the settings out for you" is enough for plug and play in your living room to me. Fucking around is still possible with buying from other storefronts or going into KDE/Desktop mode.
I don't think it'll be *as* flawless as consoles, but it definitely closes the gap way further.
 
Steam Deck is mostly good for older games and a lot of emulation stuff. Very rarely will some newer titles run smoothly on it (if at all, and if they've been optimized properly for it). I'd be perfectly happy with the Steam Deck OLED as a retro handheld device, and that's likely what I'll end up using mine for when I eventually get one within the next year.
 
The Steam Machines stumbled so the Steam Deck could run, much like the Wii U -> Switch. Valve, like Nintendo, actually learned from their mistakes from Steam Machines. They weren't charging any kind of licensing fee for the Steam Machines at all. Anyone could make a "Steam Machine" and not pay Valve a dime. Valve was banking on these things taking off, bringing in more Steam users, who in turn would spend money on Steam. It failed because it didn't take off, and it didn't take off because gaming on Linux just wasn't ready yet. All these third parties also had no stake in the success of Steam Machines, so they absolutely had to make a profit on hardware sales, which meant they were largely priced out of the typical console-gaming demographic.

The Steam Deck is basically attempt #2. Linux gaming via Proton is much, much better now. Valve is just making and selling them themselves so they can really get that price way down and make up the lack of profit there with software sales. Valve also has a real personal stake in the success of the thing, which helps a lot there. Compared to attempt #1, Valve has more experience designing and manufacturing hardware than they did before thanks to their efforts with the Steam Controller and the Index.

On top of being overpriced the controller was widely disliked on initial release too. PC gamers were still holding on to not using two sticks at the time so it was going to be a very tough sell.

The vast majority of new games work fine. Just the AAA slop that look like shit but somehow have extremely high resource demands don't work.

Reuters: Sony Group Corporation in talks to acquire Kadokawa Corporation
A deal could be signed in the coming weeks, sources claim
Sony Group Corporation is in talks to acquire Kadokawa Corporation, according to a Reuters report citing two sources familiar with the matter.

Talks between the two sides are reportedly ongoing, and a deal could be signed in the coming weeks if successful, the sources said.

Sony Group Corporation declined to comment when asked by Reuters. Kadokawa Corporation said it could not comment.
Kadokawa Corporation is the parent company of numerous subsidiaries across publishing, film and visual, and cross media. Its game development subsidiaries include ACQUIRE, FromSoftware, Gotcha Gotcha Games, and Spike Chunsoft. Sony Group Corporation subsidiary and PlayStation manufacturer Sony Interactive Entertainment already owns a 14.09 percent stake in FromSoftware.

Do they even have jurisdiction over jap companies doing business with other jap companies? I hope the deal doesn't go through but I'm not sure FTC has a say.
I think they moved all of Sony's gaming division stuff to California as a new company (I remember people being worried about that development), so that might still fall under the FTC's purview.

GOD, if this is what does Sony in, I do not know if my heart can take it. Too poetic. Also, since Sony is not Japanese anymore and has tried to screw over Japan in many ways, I do not think that Japan will let one of its greatest entertainment companies fall under the umbrella of a traitor so easily.
