Maybe they should go after MS Windows for the constant gatekeeping shit that goes on there.

-No OLED
-Uses Windows11
-No Trackpad zones
-Is using AI advertising!

They also need to stop making these cost the same as laptops, if I have to shell out 800USD, then I'm going for a similarly specked laptop for functionality. They should aim for 500-600USD MAX!

Seems to tick most the boxes except for price and that damn Windows install. I presume Microsoft basically gives them windows for free via OEM keys which is why we see all these companies using a non-handheld-friendly OS (windows).

It amazes me that these big companies have NOBODY in their department who can rebuilt up a compatible version of SteamOS or modify one of the free-respin steamos versions for their handheld. They could even slap their logo and name all over it, throw it up on github as a fork. BUT NO, they only have people educated in winblows! sad

if it was all open-source then I think they'd find a audience to sell to.

I wonder if Valve will setup a expected death of account owner timer. So once you turn 80yo they consider you dead and invalidate your entire library, lol. That would be dystopian but I suspect in 40years time we will all have MUCH more pressing issues to deal with other then computer stuff.

Quoting: Pyrateit wasn't really a big deal at the end.

Every game supports HDR, some benefit GREATLY from it and can negate the entire need for reshade or enb profiles when using HDR which does a lot of colour and brightness/exposure balancing itself.

Special-K has very good AutoHDR integration now. Also if you don't have a OLED, I don't know why you'd bother with HDR.

Need better HDR support (for nvidia at least) and DLSS Frame Generation (again from NVIDIA).

Then I can turn off this win10 VM and run some stuff via proton. I don't know when those 2 things will happen, nvidia has hinted at making it so but time will tell.

Remember when SimCity did this crap. And some modder removed the always online check in a couple days after release. Pretty funny as the developer was arguing about how it was too hard and would take time....

To be fair the Developer have mentioned their working on offline modes. BUT its something they 100% should have done before release. Now they get to join all the other developers who released games with BAD features and loose good-will launch money! Congratulations, you gone f'ed up!

Always online hey..

I'll wait for a cracked and patched version without that feature, either from the developer or whoever.
