The Steam Machine will live or die on its pricing, I think, but it's hard not to be bullish. SteamOS is fantastic and the Steam Deck has been my most-used gaming machine since it came out nearly four years ago

Absolutely. But, then again, by selling d2c Valve doesn't have to pay retailer margins.

Same kind of thinking had many publishers create their own PC digital storefronts to not pay Valve a cut to sell on Steam.

Maybe Valve will decide selling at retail is worth that cut, like pubs did for Steam.
The very important thing to remember when talking Valve and its ceiling compared to, say, Microsoft, is that you can not walk into a Walmart and buy a Steam Deck. You have to be enough of an enthusiast to know what it is and where to find it. That's the #1 thing holding Valve back.

I'm mostly just hyped for the eye-tracking tech in this. This tech is such an insane performance savings.

Seamless porting of games to ARM from x86 is also insane, isn't it?

Who else remembers a few years ago when the Jujutsu Kaisen movie made almost 200 million at the box office and the dub cast got like $300 tops
Ask literally any voice actor if they get royalties from the video games they worked on.

They will tell you no. They might even laugh.

Now imagine any developer actively trying to use AI VO to save money wanting to offer something like that.
Also, re: "they get royalties", how much money is that? Does it make up for the lack of continued work?

Paying next to nothing is still "getting paid royalties" but is functionally nothing.

Voice actors never get paid royalties on video games. It's one of the biggest scars on the industry as a whole.
