Der Vorsatz, #2026 endlich #Microsoft-frei zu sein, nimmt Form an- nach über 18 Jahren auf der #Xbox ist dann mit dieser Plattform Schluss und mein #M$-Konto kann dichtgemacht werden.

Leider eine Tendenz, die in Sachen Redmond sowohl bei der Xbox als auch bei allem anderen (Windows, Copilot & Co.) zur Ultima Ratio geführt hat- und was waren die Erlebnisse mit der Xbox & Xbox360 für glorreiche Zeiten!

Wer also noch eine #SeriesX mit einigen guten Spielen benötigt: Gerne PM!

#microsoftfrei

Hey yo. Hope your weekend is going well! I just put out a brand new video on Youtube where I discuss why I regret buying a Xbox Series X in 2025. Link here if you want to watch: https://m.youtube.com/@zombiegamercat777

So I bought Baldurs Gate 3 Digital Deluxe Edition relatively cheap. 25% off and I had some gifts coupons collected since last year and bought it on existing credits I had making it more around 20 Euros than it's usual 80 and so far... 13 hours in... Oh boy not a happy first impression. First making space on my Series X hard enough. 4 hours of download and installation...
I recreated a character of mine that recently dropped out of a running DND champaign do to a Extra dimensional portal. I am used to not so good dice rolls and yes it's a level one vs a level ten, but Random Number Generators seem to hate me.
I had not, a single successful skill check that wasn't a background check or rolled with advantage...
Seriously the whole play through I'm save scumming because otherwise I would have deleted the character already...

Also #Valve obviously chose wisely what #hardware and #specs the #SteamMachine has - just like the #SteamDeck!

• The Steam Deck was established as long-term bottom-line for #developers to target as #Linux #Gaming #PC and at release it was already faster than 50% of the #Steam #HardwareSurvey results.

Because what the "#PCMasterRace" (the term is shit, please rename yourselves!) refuses to admit is that the vast majority of Steam Users ain't like #LinusTechTips or anyone else who always has the latest #tech and shiniest #hardware to game on, but more often than not it's #casuals playing #IndieGames on old, #refurbushed business hardware who - if anything - could afford some #LowEnd #GPU!

• The Steam Machine is now basically providing a "#HardcoreGaming" target for developers to aim at. For games just not possible on the Steam Deck!

Cuz let's face it: #Nintendo's #Switch2 is an overpriced Piece Of Junk, #PS5 & #PS5Pro sell like shit and #XboxSeries sell so bad #retailers stop offering #SeriesX & #SeriesS consoles because there are no good games worth paying the premium price asked for those.

• #Xbox dying is evidenced by #Halo being released on #PlayStation and Playstation also imploding is by itself not having actual #Exclusives on their platform.

So stop bitchin' that the #GabeCube isn't gonna be a $299 machine, because this thing won't be a locked-down "razor handle" that can only play #Steam games but actual hardware people will own!
