Someone recommended the Arcade Ascension book series to me a bit ago, I was looking for good series to offer as alternatives to Harry Potter for people that like that type of thing.
It was described with the phrase of "magic hacking" - and yup, this is reverse engineering of a fun magical system...

Steam SHOULD have very clear rules.
A valid repeal process.
A clear documentation trail.
Follow all the laws and regulations in the jurisdictions they're in.
Win based on fair business practices and prices.
They WON'T do a lot of that, because much of that is gonna get them sued and lawyers say so.

This will piss off some people, but this is when I learned the following:
Artists can't tell you what they did was art.
Game designers' opinions mean little once a game is released.
Movie directors' artistic intent means nothing if it's garbage.
Authors trying to be edgy, can also mean they suck

Years ago I was dating a student that went to a respected Art school in Seattle.
I went to the Cornish grad art show where tons of students each getting a little gallery, open doors
The most talked about pieces was beautiful: a famous poem, a splash of crimson red, immediately brought to mind ...

Great interactive puzzle game ("scifi" ala Eternal Sunshine).
Love the graphics, the story, controls, and premise.
Some heavy content but with a ton of respect & love for the subject matter.

In any case, I don't think the new Steam Machine 'kills' anything on the console side.
I think it may end up being mostly incremental volume and, if anything, impacts the still small NUC mini-PC market.

Given the EA news this week, Ubi’s current struggles, and the economy… this seems like a weird one

I don’t think it will juice Xbox software sales the way they think it will. I think it’ll drive players to other consoles or off the Xbox app (which continues to be a less-ideal user experience).

And even if tariffs get wiped out, I'm not hopeful we'll see costs come down. Inflation turns into greedflation very easily when your company is managed via spreadsheet.
Anyway... been a miserable week for labor, and I wanted to get some of this down as wrap-up thoughts before I switch my brain off

The price increases (driven by tariffs, changing play habits among younger players, over-indexing on games-as-a-service, c-suite overcompensation, and the absurd practice of stock repurchasing) are putting the entire industry in a stranglehold.

I've said before that I've never seen a generation like this, with prices skyrocketing five years after launch. As generations go on, we typically welcome in more price-sensitive players to the latest generation.

And that's before you even get to the cost of the Xbox Series consoles. When the Series X|S launched, you could easily recommend that someone pick up a Series S ($300) plus a year of Game Pass ($180) and have a pretty solid entry point to this generation.

As we've said on @virtualeconcast.com multiple times, we knew that Game Pass' value would decrease over time. We did expect it would still remain an easy decision to STAY subscribed (on a pure value basis).
The combination of the BDS movement and the new changes seems like a bad time revenue-wise.

That means that user acquisition costs are going to spike again if user numbers dip below the "acceptable loss" line and revenue starts coming up short. But this time, no one with a platform is going to champion Game Pass as "the best value in gaming" as we once did.
