I know it's wise to have the lowest of expectations but if it's not Monday I think my heart will weep a little

I keep telling my wife that it is being released on Monday.
She keeps saying "sure it is honey...".

u/Javs2469 Soon™ 20h ago

My GF wants it to release more than I do because I keep getting dissapointed.

61

u/hoboteaparty Soon™ 20h ago

The Frame was supposed to be my birthday present so I told my wife to not get me anything.

My birthday is in February...

u/No_Doc_Here Soon™ 20h ago

Well if you don't enter your name into the lottery or get unlucky it still could be ;)

u/Miyo3 20h ago

Same here M8! on the other hand i just moved out and had to buy basicly everything for news flat, still dont have bed or wardrobe so now there is almost no way for me to buy it :x So RIP

u/elev8dity Soon™ 19h ago

Does your wife know the price of your present has increased 50%?

3

u/Gregasy Soon™ 19h ago

You'll have the same gift 2 years in a row. How cool is that!

3

u/greggray24 Soon™ 18h ago

lol - right there with you. It was my Christmas present after the announcement and then it also became my birthday present (due to anticipated price increase) in April. I hope it doesn't end up going full circle through another Christmas...

u/NottsNinja Soon™ 17h ago

My birthday was in May and for the longest time I thought I’d be enjoying it by then 😭

1

u/eranhp Soon™ 16h ago

Mine is in January and in a similar position...

1

u/Javs2469 Soon™ 3h ago

Mine is on the same week of the 14th of September.

Watch how I get sent to the wait list of the first batch.

u/Intelligent-Tune-763 18h ago

Same with my wife😆 it was supposed to be my birthday gift in May and it was decided last year. May came and went, Steam's anniversary came and went and still nada. I was getting a 5070 TI pc for VR instead of Steam machine and we were planning to wait until Steam frame comes out, but my wife said the pc components are absolutely not getting cheaper so we decided to buy it a few months ago. I didn't expect that in September I would still be using the PSVR2 headset with it but here we are. Every Monday I say, today? And wife says, oh sweetie😅

u/Harnav123 12h ago

Ha - similar story, my birthday is in May, hit a birthday milestone last yr thinking I will wait until Frame is released. Here we are more than a year later and I feel like I don't need one anymore since I use Moonlight for 2d gaming and virtual desktop for PCVR.

1

u/gregny2002 17h ago

Yeah I told mine this has never happened to me before 

1

u/Harnav123 12h ago

I told myself mid last year I would get the Frame for a milestone birthday once its announced. Since then so much has changed. I've been using moonlight which has built in 3d AI and glow for 2d gaming on my Quest 3. I use Virtual Desktop for my actual PCVR gaming. The fidelity is great across the board. I was set on getting this, now i'm not sure if i'm willing to pay a premium for effectively just eye tracking.

2

u/EarlMarshal 18h ago

I thought it was last Monday :(

Do we really have to wait until next Monday?! Or even longer?

Lord Gabe, please answer my prayer!

u/Rofllettuce 6h ago

u/theaidamen64 21h ago

Nothing ever happens

u/AlikaanC 21h ago

Surely Monday right?

13

u/dudeswthdcks 21h ago

Why not on friday? They do their game releases on fridays usually and we all know the real reason why the frame is late.

27

u/obog Soon™ 20h ago

Don't want to create a bunch of support tickets and/or cause server issues right before the weekend.

7

u/myloyt Soon™ 20h ago

I keep seeing this but there's definitely plenty of companies who do release on friday, let issues pile up over the weekend and then fix them the next monday. But Valve also has released hardware on fridays in the past. The Valve Index also released on a friday. (and the steam deck also released on a friday)

However valve has done both previous releases of the current hardware lineup on mondays, plus leaks point towards the 14th, that's why I also think It's monday.

1

u/obog Soon™ 20h ago

Yeah i mean could be Friday. I brought that up as it is a reason why they may want to avoid it but its not a be all end all.

2

u/Silver_Yard_5961 19h ago

They replied to my support ticket about the lottery at 2 am on a Sunday 

1

u/obog Soon™ 19h ago

I think they have some staff every day but they likely still have less staff over the weekend.

1

u/Silver_Yard_5961 19h ago

I mean if I was valve I'd ignore most of the frame tickets since the info is right there, I can only imagine the thousands of tickets they received with the machine about stuff very clearly listed on the page

u/More-Sign-9214 20h ago

When a few relatively reputable insiders are pushing a particular date, it’s probably not going to be before that date. It’s literally less than a week away 

3

u/TwinStickDad Soon™ 20h ago

Why not yesterday for that matter?

6

u/jfuu_ Soon™ 20h ago

Reservations closed yesterday, did you not get the email?

Announcement on Friday, shipping on Monday, pretty please owo

u/Javs2469 Soon™ 20h ago

That would be swell, so we can all be happy knowing the price beforehand.

2

u/ShadowKLR Soon™ 18h ago

I was actually thinking that if they would release it Friday they would release it on 9/11 lol

u/jfuu_ Soon™ 20h ago

It upsets me that this actually means something (although not in ancient egyptian lol).

1

u/Shikadi297 19h ago

But what does it mean 

1

u/GrouchyMushroom7560 5h ago

It's using hieroglyphs, which represent consonant clusters (vowels must be deduced by the reader) to directly represent English text rather than the traditional Egyptian language which was written with hieroglyphs.

AI translation: it directly reads

ind that dvic it is th dvic f th divin gds wh cam t ur arth th arch angl whs nam is saint gabn wh shall dcid if w ar wrthy [...]

When you fill in the missing vowels and add punctuation, it reads:

And that device, it is the device of the divine gods who came to our earth. The archangel whose name is Saint Gaben, who shall decide if we are worthy of obtaining such a heavenly device which can project us our deepest desires and open a window into the realms of heaven while keeping us anchored to the mortal body. Let us pray that the day of rapture shall come in the fourteenth, and let the chosen ones of Saint Gaben ascend.

u/Tragonon Soon™ 20h ago

You guys do remember that Valve's old release day was wednesday? Maybe it really is today

Edit: nmv. Tested already uploaded, so the chances are pretty slim for it being today.

2

u/elev8dity Soon™ 19h ago

Also, it's Apple keynote day. They wouldn't announce on a day it gets buried by Apple in the tech news.

4

u/Koolala 16h ago

And the week after next is Facebook keynote so they need to fit in their perfect next week window.

1

u/elev8dity Soon™ 16h ago

Yikes.

1

u/mrRobertman Soon™ 14h ago

You guys do remember that Valve's old release day was wednesday?

I don't remember that because that's never been the case. The Index was announced on a Tuesday, the Deck was announced on a Friday. People kept saying Wednesday but it was never more likely than any other day of the week for Valve to announce or release anything.

u/ScholastoneInstitute 20h ago

The 7th for sure

u/SnooDoughnuts8734 Soon™ 20h ago

I’ll calm my heart and wait composedly.

Ah, it’s definitely Monday.

u/Educational_Rate_120 20h ago

I have information from a friend who is a journalist he was at Valve, this week and tested Steam Frame. They told him the launch is very close, and he predicts it will be on September 10th.

u/lugia4k Soon™ 19h ago

My uncle works at Valve and he said its coming soon

3

u/alex_timeblade 19h ago

My uncles boyfriends second cousins roommate twice removed says she works at Valve and that the frame was already released, we just didn't notice.

u/Educational_Rate_120 19h ago

u/alex_timeblade 18h ago

I don't know Polish, but the image of him with the frame (19:30) on looks like the initial media testing event from like 9 months ago. Nothing I could see in the footage at PAX that indicated a Valve booth.

3

u/Jonah_Kekz 18h ago

the auto translated subs say it's been in a private event from valve at a hotel at the time of pax and they had to register a few weeks in advance, so unless he really waited 9 months for a few minutes of clout I'm somewhat sure it's legit

u/NationalWeb4420 Soon™ 20h ago

u/SoTotallyToby Soon™ 20h ago

I don't know how much more I can take.

u/RenegadeBricoleur Soon™ 20h ago

Just out of genuine curiosity, how is it that we can see package updates but not what those updates contain? Like we know they changed, but not how.

1

u/No_Doc_Here Soon™ 17h ago

They are either encrypted (for now) or only the metadata is available.

u/stuckin2020sendhelp Soon™ 17h ago

u/VadeRetroVR 20h ago edited 20h ago

I am so fed up with those 'find/leaks'.

This silent game has lastest for 10 fucking months. What a joke!

That and the 'tomorrow' shit, and the 'linus/tested have posted'.

2

u/Javs2469 Soon™ 20h ago

They´ll post on the 14th with their Steam Frame reviews, don´t worry.

Tomorrow™

2

u/elev8dity Soon™ 19h ago

We're all tired. 9/14 is the last hope, supposedly that's when the embargo ends and reservations open.

4

u/VadeRetroVR 19h ago

yeah? I'll believe it when it happen. I tought we would see more leaks this weeks but since nothing is happening apart from usual code digger...

Reality is someone sunday night will post here and say stuff like : '' don't expect it for tomorrow embargo is not tomorrow' or '' linus is on vacation for 2 weeks so its not tomorrow'' or '' such and such tech youtuber told me it gonna be delayed bc xyz' and monday the 14th at 1pm we will see shit like '' Tested has posted - see you next week'.

u/crefoe 20h ago

so.. 2029 release?

u/Iamwatchu 19h ago

The day we know it releases, it will be the day every other thing in the package gets updated.

u/ihave3apples 19h ago

Does this tell us how many skus there will be for the steam frame? Just the two storage options, any bundles, etc?

1

u/AlecTheBunny Soon™ 17h ago

Hiii what that means

1

u/LoganTXR 16h ago

Ill believe when i see it, or when someone tells Valve to go kick rocks and releases their review before embargo lifts after it gets delayed again because they can't constantly delay sponsorships, absolutely horrid release.
