- Comment on Best of Steam 2024 - the top performing games on steam, including best sellers on Steam Deck 3 weeks ago:
No, this is pro-consumer. Showing the original price and the “X% off!” sign is price anchoring designed to make you think you’re getting a great deal and to make you feel urgency to buy it now. It’s why we all have such giant collections of unplayed games.

Yeah, Heroic or whatever just isn’t good enough. Joe Random doesn’t want that kind of jank on his gaming appliance.

As much as I love Valve I think it’d be weird for a 3rd party handheld to boot directly into the Steam UI. I get that there aren’t any viable alternatives atm, so I guess this is where we are. Wouldn’t hurt with a more store-neutral solution, in the end.
- Comment on Valve: don’t expect a faster Steam Deck ‘in the next couple of years’ 1 year ago:
Don’t play big titles on the Deck. That’s not what it’s good at. Play Fez or Tunic or something. There’s a near infinite list of great games that are not technically demanding.
