Is the Steam Deck performance struggling with new AAA games? Should I be concerned buying a Steam Deck now?
I’m guessing/hoping not because most game developers would optimise the games for the Switch 2 and Xbox Series S which have similar performances as the Deck.
I think 30 fps (consistent) is perfectly fine, and I don’t mind medium details.
My brother has a Lenovo Legion Go (the original one, not the S). I am definitely in envy of the big display, the higher refresh rate, and the more powerful chip. However it’s a bit ehh in terms of ergonomics. It also runs windows but that’s irrelevant because you can install steamOS.
There’s a good chance I’ll get a Legion Go next and stick steamOS on it unless we see a steam deck 2 soon that’s bigger and punchier. I know we all love our retro and indie games, but it is nice to be able to play more demanding games from time to time.
Yeah ergonomics is extremely important to me. I also try to avoid products from Chinese companies.
Are there electronic goods on the market that aren’t, in some part, made in China?
There’s a vast different between “a part made in China” and “made by Chinese companies”.
I am not trying to start a political discussion here, only stating my preference.
I didn’t think my question was political, but rather about logistics. I just don’t know of any video game console, or electronics manufacturer in general, that is promising that none of their components are made in China.
I never mentioned anything about “made in China”. I said “Chinese companies”.
Oh, sorry, I conflated those two things. So, if I’m understanding this right, you don’t mind if the components were made in China or purchased from Chinese companies, but the seller of the final product cannot be a Chinese company? That’s a far easier rule to satisfy.
I prefer to avoid everything from China, but that’s not realistic. So for now I avoid products designed/sold by a Chinese company. That includes video games created by Chinese companies.
