It has the potential to be an amazing game. But it probably never will be.
I fire it up once or twice per year. It looks great. Beyond that… it’s kind of fun to explore a bit, but that’s pretty much it. Not sure if anything will ever become of it.
I’m sitting in a dark hotel room on the eve of my first - and possibly only - total solar eclipse, with my partner and step-son, and I am positively awash with emotions....
Ignoring the lack of updates if the game is buggy, games back then were also more focused on quality and make gamers replay the game with unlockable features based on skills, not money. I can’t count the number of times I played Metal Gear Solid games over and over to unlock new features playing the hardest difficulty and with...
I play casually on coop servers from time to time (at level 250 or something, although it’s nice that levels are meaningless in that game). I mostly see it as a fun and not too serious shooter that’s good for a quick game.
Here’s what the device is if (like me) you didn’t know what it was (and, if, maybe like me, you didn’t want to watch some random video).
It seems to me that those machines are poor PCs and poor Steam Deck wannabes.
However, they do remind me of my favourite PC of all time, the fabulous Vaio C1 PictureBook by Sony. Mine had 64 Megs of memory (extended to 192 I think) and 12Gigs of disk. And, you bet it ran Linux like a champ (Mandrake, with KDE).
I see they have a number of little machines that can come in very handy in a lot of cases. So while I’m not convinced by that one specifically, it doesn’t reflect on the whole lineup. A lot of their gadgets are quite nice.
However I’m more convinced by their “tech in a pocket” systems than by the gaming ones.

Having no idea what the ventilation is in other areas, I don’t know how it compares.
Also all those markets probably overlap a fair bit.
I used to think that the share was roughly ½ console and ½ PC, but not only does it probably vary wildly from place to place, I have nothing to base that feeling on anyway. It’s just that I never played on a console (until the deck, which only semi-counts) and never met anybody who did until quite late (which admittedly doesn’t really mean anything). Also I never really thought of phones as a gaming medium even though they clearly are.
And finally, now that a lot of titles are released on multiple platforms, does it matter all that much?
So a user on Reddit (ed: u/Yoraxx ) posted on the Starfield subreddit that there was a problem in Starfield when running the game on an AMD Radeon GPU. The issue is very simple, the game just won't render a star in any solar system when you are at the dayside of a moon or even any planetary object. The issue only occurs on AMD...
