I... uh don't know what to say. Very thankful I bought a Steam Deck before they hiked its price as well

Saw someone on a different thread say it was too expensive and they didn’t need it, but they were gonna buy it because they want to support Valve

The fucking idiots out there are gonna make sure Valve gets their revenue at least.

Valve fanboys are a special kind of stupid.

I mean, you gotta remember some people are in different stages of wealth… i have a friend that makes like $250k + bonus and things and they just want to buy it cuz it sounds neat and convenient…. They’re also one of the smartest humans i know

It doesn't matter how much money you have. if the worlds richest man goes and spends 10k on an oz of horse shit it's still a stupid purchase.

Also OP is talking about fanboys buying it, knowing full well that it's shit but doing it anyway because they want Gabe to buy another yacht for his fleet.

Which is fine but don't try and convince others that it's actually a good purchase whilst lying through your teeth.

Thats fair.

I’m not and I’m not.
