They did, it runs wonderfully on the Steam Machine natively now.

Why is everyone buying a cable when the one accessory the Frame actually does come with is a cable that is the perfect length to go from headset to pocket (it is literally the exact same size as the AVP tether).

On the Machine I have been playing couch co-op Minecraft Dungeons II (streamed from my windows machine since it doesn’t currently support Linux). On the Frame I have finally been playing through Chants of Sennaar, I was also playing through Minecraft Dungeons I on the Frame (which isn’t technically Frame verified but I was able to get like 30 FPS at 1080p on that game).

I’m not totally sure, to me it read they were talking about Valve Index finger tracking, which this headset does have.

I think they were managing the other releases. Also I think they put in the time to post Alyx to Frame, when it was first announced that was a soft maybe, but with all the extra time they got it working before launch.

I am more hoping they copy Apple gaze and pinch, that makes navigating UIs so amazing in VR. Having to reach for a controller to move a window makes me feel like I am in the stone age again.

It has Index finger tracking, all the same finger tracking sensors are built in. If you play any game that supported finger tracking on the index it will work with Frame controllers. Sometimes you have to drum your fingers to get the calibration going, but the same was true for the Index.

Hey, the loops on my Ergo straps broke (seems like they weren’t glued super well). So at least you didn’t spend $60 for it to partially break after like 1 week.

So far I have been very happy with both the Steam Machine and the Frame (the software is still early days, especially on the Frame but personally I really enjoy that).
I have found myself playing a surprising amount of simpler/older flat screen games on the Frame entirely standalone (recently Hades and the original Minecraft Dungeons). That process has been really fun even though battery life leaves something to be desired. Along with having standalone Beat Saber and not being a Meta headset is awesome.
Just FYI the Frame and Machine don’t work together very well yet, that is something Valve is planning but they haven’t gotten it implemented yet.
- Comment on Steam Frame - What games do you want to play on it? 4 weeks ago:
I am excited to finally have standalone Beat Saber, as a PC VR only user that never owned a meta device it will be nice to finally take beatsaber wherever I want.
Chants of Sennaar (a flat game) also just got verified today, so I will probably play that. I think it also might be time to play Half Life Alyx again, maybe I will try playing through the whole thing standalone.
And I will probably also stream some of the other games I have been playing (Resident Evil Requiem, 007 First Light, and finally playing the Indiana Jones DLC).
- Comment on Valve is so behind on Steam Controller orders that some won’t ship until 2027 3 months ago:
I believe it is anytime from now until September, with September being the latest possible date you will get it.
- Comment on Valve is so behind on Steam Controller orders that some won’t ship until 2027 3 months ago:
I was imagining they just didn’t want to give too specific of estimates, so before September just means anytime between now and September (with September being the latest possible time you could get it). I guess we will see though, I imagine they definitely want stock to be able to ship with Machines though, so maybe they will slow out the amount they send out.
- Comment on Got my Steam Controller guys! Ain't she a beaut 🤩 4 months ago:
The controller actually has both thumbsticks and grip capacitance sensing, you can set it to be whatever you prefer to activate gyro.
- Comment on Some speculation on the Steam Controller and scalpers 5 months ago:
They failed to charge tax in some states because they had it set as a piece of software. So clearly they are still learning, lol
