It could or should have been around 700-800. We must be thankful AI companies that it is how it is now.
I'm still getting one but this is clearly a luxury item now rather than a competitive console. Sucks to be Valve here, the timing really worked against them.
I just really hope the VR headset is not much worse than this as I just want to play No Man's Sky on linux VR.
I just want to play No Man’s Sky on linux VR.
Should work already https://www.protondb.com/app/275850 if you have a Valve Index and a good gaming Linux desktop.
Playing No Man's Sky on VR (PSVR) was my favorite VR experience.
quite a deal, as a 262 year old unc, steam machines back in my day took nearly $2000 to make
I see that the controller bundled already sold out in Japan.
It doesn't help that those of us in Asia are forced to use Valve's shitty third party distributor Komodo Station. Famous for selling WinRAR licences.
I have no idea what Valve gets out of this. Asian distribution isn't that complicated anymore especially when Komodo doesn't even provide customer support.
And they'll probably increase the price by next year.
Valve can call me when it makes products I can actually afford on a janitor's salary
The sad part is that Valve really did price all the parts for pretty much as low as they could go:
Wtf? The 16g of ram costs almost as much as the gpu. I really hope my ram sticks don't fail on me anytime soon.
Where'd you find this?
Looks like Gamers Nexus' review
Sadly thats probably a competitive price for a console now.
Either way it's cheaper than a console once you factor in the absence of discounts and subscription to play online that consoles have.
