Of course it is, but it’s just the focus on how the UI is made that has changed, that does not inherently make it harder. It just changes some of the design goals.
I have fucking made UI’s from scratch in assembly on a pixel basis, that were better than a lot of the crap we see today.
It’s a moronic oversimplification, and making a different approach is not the same as harder.
And just saying working harder says nothing about the ways that are described in the article, and provides zero additional info.
Sad that such low energy effort without reading the article first is even upvoted. Lowest denominator rules here. 🤮
No it’s not the hard work, it is about working differently.
because the steamdeck is actually just a small PC
That is very contrary to what’s the point of the article. Supporting the Steam deck also means supporting the controller and the small screen format. Things that can benefit users of Windows based handhelds too.
Wush!
Way to completely miss the message. Which include how user interfaces need to be usable on the small screen, and to make optimizations for lower end hardware and not just focus on mid range and high end.
The exception being that if you make a very high end complex game, it may be better to not support Steam Deck at all, because if it doesn’t play well, it shouldn’t pretend to work.
I don’t understand the purpose of that, or how that would be irony.
Looks just like a dumb comment to me.
What a moronic question to ask on a Steam Deck sub?
Of course I have, and Steam deck was priced very aggressively, but info on who makes this Steam Machine and how it will be priced is 100% absent here.
There was a pretty massive attempt at launching steam machines years before Steam Deck, and that it didn’t go well.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steam_Machine_(computer)
Following a two-year testing period, Steam Machines and its related hardware were released on November 10, 2015. By 2018, many Steam Machine models were no longer offered on the Steam store.
How does that raise the question whether I’m aware of Steam Deck???
There’s an LED strip, y’all!
Cool, I hope they keep that idea. 😀
Anyways it all depends on price/performance is good.
Previous attempts at 3rd party Steam Machines were not good in that regard.
OK I’ll have to look into that.
You can always download and install manually.
To be honest I wasn’t aware GOG even had a Linux client! Maybe it doesn’t have proton like functionality, but they did make install scripts for wine once.
You are funny.
Same strategy I just revealed above, asking a stupidly generalized question lacking the specifics about what I’m supposedly arguing with flawed logic. While apparently you are not being able to point anything out.
It’s easy to ask stupid questions, but generally a lot harder to answer them reasonably.
You are the one who has me tagged, and when I recalled who you are, you claimed you don’t even remember the interaction that caused you to tag me.
You started this making personal attacks, and made comments to me that were so out of line they were removed by the moderators.
And now you claim I’m the one who is pissed off, and is trying to discredit you, just for responding to your attack on me.
You simply refuse to learn, and you refuse to accept when you are wrong.
You are discrediting yourself just fine without my help.
I agree, which is the joke in that the cars sitting idle are perfect for Americans sitting idle while their country collapses.
Funny you ask for proof, when I just gave you proof on your previous question:
Did I claim that? 💋
You did the exact same thing last time ad nauseam, you just go on and on questioning another thing when something was just proven to you. No I’m not going to prove it, because this was months ago, and I don’t care to dig through hundreds of posts to find your stupid posts to present them to you again.
If you can̈́t remember, why do you choose to keep this grudge going. That’s your problem.
The part about holding a grudge by your own admittance, is shown right here in this thread for everyone to see.
But as is typical for you, you just say “prove it” without stating exactly what it is you want proof of.
When I write: "you argue opinionated on baseless assumptions without evidence with flawed logic. "
You are welcome to interpret that as merely my opinion. And obviously I can’t prove an opinion.
That’s like being asked to prove a color is pretty.
Again a clear symptom of your flawed logic, and assumption that people will understand what you mean, even when you fail to provide the necessary specifics.
It doesn’t make it wrong, but it means it probably is wrong more often than not. Especially when the downvote is overwhelming, and there are no or almost no upvotes, then it is a very strong indicator.
It has happened to me too, and has been cause for reflection, and has meant that I discovered I actually was wrong. None of us can be right all the time.
Wow, you don’t even remember what you responded a few hours ago!
I wrote:
Seems like you have an obsession with me?
And you responded:
Nah, just got you tagged.
So yes you did claim that.
I remember you clearly now, you argue opinionated on baseless assumptions without evidence with flawed logic.
And by your own admittance you like so much to hold a grudge that you tag people to get back at them.
That’s just so pathetic.
If you don’t like being constantly reminded of various ill comments I’ve seen you post
And you claim you are not obsessed.
🤣 🤡
I don’t think the majority of Americans are applauding what’s happening to USA under Trump.
I’ve seen a lot of regrets.
No not just tagged, you also react on it. I think I know who you are now. You are obsessed. When you showed your “evidence” last we debated this, you were downvoted into oblivion, and you still maintain this crap?
Sounds pretty stupid if you don’t know which platforms you want to target from the beginning.
If development really is that random and poorly planned, they are making extra work for themselves due to poor planning more than because they chose to support the Steam deck.
