Unpopular Opinion
Welcome to the Unpopular Opinion community!
How voting works:
Vote the opposite of the norm.
If you agree that the opinion is unpopular give it an arrow up. If it's something that's widely accepted, give it an arrow down.
Guidelines:
Tag your post, if possible (not required)
- If your post is a "General" unpopular opinion, start the subject with [GENERAL].
- If it is a Lemmy-specific unpopular opinion, start it with [LEMMY].
Rules:
1. NO POLITICS
Politics is everywhere. Let's make this about [general] and [lemmy] - specific topics, and keep politics out of it.
2. Be civil.
Disagreements happen, but that doesn’t provide the right to personally attack others. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Please also refrain from gatekeeping others' opinions.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Shitposts and memes are allowed but...
Only until they prove to be a problem. They can and will be removed at moderator discretion.
5. No trolling.
This shouldn't need an explanation. If your post or comment is made just to get a rise with no real value, it will be removed. You do this too often, you will get a vacation to touch grass, away from this community for 1 or more days. Repeat offenses will result in a perma-ban.
Instance-wide rules always apply. https://legal.lemmy.world/tos/

The Deck is by far and away the most popular device in that space, and we're already seeing developers targeting the Deck's specs to make games run well on it.
Competition in this regard is great for users, not because it pushes developers to raise their game, but because it's going to push Valve to raise theirs.
I can't think of a product that was improved by a lack of competition.
I get what you are saying. It's mostly to keep developers targeting those specific specs and so people don't need to upgrade to something new for a while.
It's kind of like the mentality some people have of not wanting a new version of the Switch because the version that's available now works well enough for them and they still want to see game releases for it.
Though personally I think seven years might be a bit much and backwards compatibility not really being an issue with PC games (compared to Nintendo games) kind of makes it a bad comparison.
That said I posted it here because it's an unpopular opinion. I feel like most unpopular opinions aren't totally logical
