What are you talking about? Their privacy policy/etc seems pretty good by modern web standards, and they specifically say that the only case which might result in another company buying their user data is if it’s part of the entire company being purchased.

Some of these are really weird. Like, I want to know which nerd is making their Machine look like a square basketball xD.
The orange box one is pretty nice though.

Fuck dbrand and their cringe lord marketing. I ain’t giving no money for a Canadian company charging American dollars from their Canadian customers.

If valve themselves aren’t going to do it, they should at least give dbrand or someone a licence to sell a companion cube skin. It’s too obvious not to.

They probably would have if dbrand had asked in the initial design phase.

I hesitated on my Steam Machine purchase and missed my deadline, now i am back in the queue. 😭

If you email support they may be able to help you. I tried buying during the window, but my credit card company blocked it as suspected fraud, and then I forgot about it until after the deadline. I emailed support and they moved me back up to the front.

At the price the steam machine is, why not just build a PC?
IrateAnteater@sh.itjust.works 8 hours ago
Form factor and CEC are the big ones. There’s no PC you can build that will come anywhere close to the performance:size ratio of the steam machine. And getting CEC to work is possible, but not the easiest.

Can’t answer for everyone but I already have a PC. I got the steam machine mostly for the convenience of having a dedicated device for playing my games on the TV with a compact form factor.

And they’re legit this time? 😋
Jokes aside, that orange one is pretty cool. You could claim to have bought the Steam Orange Box, literally!

Get your own Steam logo vinyl, and boom.
