  • can you blame them for not wanting to be seen as the game where Trump can punch Obama in the face?

    Well...

    • NetEase is a Chinese company, so I highly doubt they care about that.
    • If it can be the game thay Trump punches Obama in the face, it can also be the game where Obama punches Trump in the face. More likely is they would tell jokes and make each other laugh.
  • Youll probably be waiting for a while since most indies are solo devs. Its hard to make 3D models and textures of the PS2/GameCube/Xbox era quality as a solo dev in a reasonable amount of time, especially for every object a game would need.

    The programming isn't even the hard part. Its mostly the amount of time and work required for making art assets that take the longest in game developmemt.

  • So like, hypothetically, if one wanted to play a "hentai game" with such a device, where would one be able to find this tech if Sony sells it? Hypothetically, of course, but also my friend wanted to know where exactly to find it so they could avoid it...

  • Don't get me wrong, I am not saying people should constantly buy new stuff. I mean, I daily drive a 1968 Ford Galaxie 500. I still run a GTX 1080Ti in my gaming PC (partially due to cost, but also the 1080Ti was just a really good card). I am a big proponent of "keep stuff operating for as long as possible to prevent more waste." I love repairing stuff. I am also content with what I already have. I dont have to have the latest stuff, if what I have now works for what I need it for then its no big deal to me.

    Im just saying for someone considering this as an upgrade, if they aren't content with the Steam Deck they have, then probably they will get way better value out of buying a new one than they will from a $140 screen only upgrade.

  • $140 seems like a massive rip-off, honestly.

    Maybe if this was like, $50 I would consider this, but $140 is too much to ask just for a screen upgrade that people have to self-install.

    Like, I have an LCD Steam Deck, and the screen does fine. Sure it would be nice if it was a bit brighter, but not for $140. I mean, a new OLED Steam Deck is $550 but includes performance, battery life, and WiFi speed increases as well, including a screen with a 90Hz refresh rate even if most games never reach that. Plus, this screen requires that I flash a custom BIOS, why would most people want to do that when they can just run the stock one from Valve?

    I don't see where this gives such a massive benefit over just buying an OLED model. Too much loss for not enough gain, IMO.
