      Ah yes, nothing better than getting a heat stroke playing Beat Saber when it is 40°C in the apartment. /s

      Very important to note that it reads “shipping this summer”. That is pretty unambiguous. They are not just going to do some further reveal, or just begin taking preorders. Customers should finally actually have Steam Machine and Steam Frame in hand within the next few months.

    Okay, can we get the reservation system for the stream machine so I can buy it?

    I’m also curious about be but don’t know how well it works for someone with glasses

      They’ve said that prescription lens inserts would be available for the steam frame. I have third-party ones for the Index, and they’re great

      If you’re very short sighted, simply taking the lenses out may be an option.

      Have you tried another VR system? I’m not sure how similar they all are but we have the quest and it works fine with my wife’s glasses. Needs an extra spacer segment to actuallt fit them in though.

      I don’t know that much about it, but I’m assuming if ones fine theyre all fine sort of thing.

    I am sad and little bit confused why they are not cooperating with protondb. For a company that leverages its customers all the time it seams so odd that they do all of this busy work all on their own.

      Because they’re better equipped and it enhances their platform to be a reliable one stop. That said protondb having user comments is incredibly helpful.

      Also a point for not relying on protondb, they mark The Finals as a platinum ready to play game but it is a crashing nightmare deserving of silver at best. A common complaint by users there too.

      So why rely on protondb if it’s not a guarantee? They have orders of magnitude more data to draw a better picture than the user opt in aggregation of protondb that’s faulty at times.
