This is shocking and sad. id is arguably the strongest studio Xbox owns; the new Doom trilogy is exceptional. I love all three games.
We are so, so, so lucky Microsoft never got its hands on Capcom, Sega, Square Enix, etc, because they would have unapologetically destroyed them.
The very same people who vociferously cheer-led Microsoft's mindless M&A spree and religiously supported GamePass while it was clearly failing are now going to explain to you how and why it all went wrong.
And remember: These guys wanted more!
Zero accountability. Embarrassing.
Thoughts after a few hours of playing with Steam Machine.
- 3D performance is just…meh.
- The system recommends to default to 1080p - am I going back to PS4 days?
- Some games take a looooooong time to boot, what is it doing?
- System UI is easy to use.
- Being able to boot up by pressing a button on Steam Controller is a killer feature.
- Changeable face plate is nice.
- Random boot up videos is a nice touch :)
- Sticks on Steam Controller is a bit looser than my taste.
- Having touch pad is nice, but it is very “touchy” and hard to use.
- It allows me to play Steam games on my living room TV, which is a reason enough to keep it.
- But the price was very unfriendly. Hard to recommend to people unless for research.
