When you build your own linux pc, you will always have a big risk of some unexpected problems. Lowering the bar of technical expertise to run linux is the main selling point here IMO.
Yeah, I think the missing point is the average Lemmy user is not the target market. This is Steam’s attempt to grab market share from the other consoles. People with gaming PCs are probably already using steam. People with Xbox or PS are probably not. Steam needs to provide an out of the box ready product to let them existing console players play steam.
NGL, I kinda want one as a desktop. I have better gaming systems, but having a little borg cube on my desk with an ok amount of horsepower pushing two monitors would be pretty neat. I’d either give it a Tardis siege mode skin or a borg cube skin
biggest point.

And it will be a development target, meaning devs will put in some effort to get their games working nicely on it.
This is me. I used to be a PC tinkerer back in the day. But now, ain’t nobody got time for that.
