- nxc18 5mo agoDoes it? Do people actually play those games? I thought people just liked buying them and never playing the vast majority of them.
- HDBaseT 5mo agoWell, you can play them. Not playing the games you purchased sounds like an issue with you, rather than the system.
- Alchemista 5mo agoHow many people who are that invested in their Steam library don't already have a mid to upper range PC?
- simpaticoder 5mo agoAdd "in their living room" and the answer is low. But is it a good experience to game in the living room, on the couch? To me that's an open question that is (sadly) very expensive to answer.
- Kostic 5mo ago70% of the Steam users have a PC that's weaker than the Steam Machine[0]. These things will sell out, that's not the issue. The issue is that Valve probably won't have enough power to secure hardware deals to fulfill all the orders, thus limiting the growth of their hardware side.

- frollogaston 5mo agoIf they have a PC weaker than the Steam Machine, they were obviously not willing to pay for a stronger PC even when components were cheaper before, so how is the situation better now?
