A lot of its mechanics and gameplay are unbelievably outdated. I’m sure I wouldn’t play it if I didn’t as a kid.

This is the way the game was meant to be played: exploring and having fun with it. Not XP grinding into the ground.

Given the price of everything, it’s hard to be excited about this. I’ll probably stick with what I have and get used hardware if I’m hard-pressed to get something more.

I’m not faulting them (look at what happened with the PS3), but it was still a point towards its price being higher than the folks that thought it’d be priced closer to a PS5 or Xbox Series.

I’ve been saying since the beginning of the RAM crisis that there was no way this was going to be under $999 since Valve wasn’t willing to make it a loss leader. Oh, the sweet validation. And more importantly: fuck AI. I’ll see you all when the Steam Frame is +$1,499 USD.

Hey, much better this time around! And I got to be your first view on the video!

Assuming you’re still open to feedback, these are my personal takes:

• The music doesn’t add anything. Either get a great musician behind your music or just cut it.
• The runtime felt long.
• If you don’t want to show your face or use your voice, that’s fine, but you need another way to make the video stand out. Maybe an editing and/or recording style that stands out and is also entertaining. This is not an easy thing to accomplish, and I, again, strongly recommend you don’t use AI to try to answer this question, since it requires creativity and that’s not its strong suit. Additionally, there’s usually a sweet spot between being unique enough to be different and “trying too hard”, which AI is also terrible at finding - it’s why entertainment is hard. I recommend you trust your gut and just try different things until you find something that resonates with people.
