I believe it. I’m sure there are millions of people using Steam to play Dota or CS2 on stuff like old laptops. But how many of those are willing and able to spend 1000+ for an upgrade?
Ultimately, stock may be so low that it doesn’t really matter though.
That means there are a shitload of potential customers, not “I wonder how many people there are that fall in that category but who wouldn’t just buy a much cheaper console instead though.”
If you ignore the price, sure.
What are you on about? There are people that will still want/need to upgrade, and those are the customers. It’s not ignoring price, that is simply the price whether it’s a PC or a steam machine. Something tells me you just want to disagree so ciao.
My point is that you can’t take the price out of the equation. If your standard for “potential customer” is everyone for whom a Steam Machine would be an upgrade, that’s not a useful metric in my opinion. As many of those either can’t afford to pay that much or wouldn’t want to pay it for an upgrade they don’t necessarily need. Dota plays just fine on older systems. My initial statement was in the context of the pricing, not “I wonder if anyone would get it if it were $100”.
Seriously what are you on about? It doesn’t have to be every single one of that 70% that’s chomping at the bit to upgrade. That is the easy customer pool. PCs users are on a continuous upgrade cycle, it’s not like consoles where they have to upgrade every generation. It’s more of a cycle. Can’t afford? You seem to want to focus on the cheapest users and act as if that’s all 70%, which sorry to say is just wrong and bad thinking. Sure there’s a long tail in that bell curve and some at the very end are on strict budgets, but there are tons that are just on the normal upgrade path. Plus others whose PC’s break. The 30% above steam specs can wait it out, but 70% may still want/need to upgrade. No one is ignoring price, this is simply the price of PC gaming now. And what are you quoting? You’re just making things up now, so that’s my sign I really need to peace out. Ciao.
