They do. They're doing what the people asked.

Like, can you run gamepass games on there and Blizzard games right from steamOS? What about games from the Epic launcher?

This is what I'm referring to when is say it restricts games you can play. Steam games mostly run pretty well.

Edit: Blizzard games do run

Something might but it has to meet a bunch of criteria. A lot of these handheld have flaws or drawbacks and none of them are perfect:

  • powerful APU to run latest games
  • OLED screen
  • VRR
  • Front firing speakers
  • comfortable to hold
  • back buttons not in the way, but easy to reach
  • hall effect sticks and triggers
  • trackpad(s)
  • good software for device control
  • large battery
  • lots of fast ram (24gb)
  • full size nvme expansion

Most handhelds I see meet a bunch of those but not all of them.

That's like tree-fiddy in our terms

Microsoft is buying up companies to stockpile IP. Simple as that.

Then they have a lot of redundant workers so they let them go, leaving the IP in their hands to be filed away for potential lawsuits against infringers.

I dunno, I enjoyed the overboard in #2. Movie 3 he actually did dial back quite a bit since 2 didn't sell very well. 3 felt a lot closer to 1.

That's part of the enshitifcation process.
