What can Valve do to make Steam Machines (or Linux in general) worthy gaming platform in eyes of gamers?

>inb4 hue hue stop leaking user info

It's been 2 days, you already forgot about it.
That's what internet does to your attention span.

ncreased discount for games when you have the system
this, even temporarily, would be really useful.
Right now steam machines are really only extremely useful for devs who showcase their games.

I don't fucking want it. I have a PC. I have Steam because it makes legitimately acquiring games very simple and often times, reasonable in pricing.

At no point did I ever indicate that what I Really REALLY wanted was to buy a new console that played PC games.

What do you want from me Steam? Fuck.

These are doomed
How many devs want to port all their games to linux?
On the other hand, Steam Link looks pretty nice, anyone here have one?
>>
Wait

Gaming on Linux is already pretty big and has a growing share, and it's been virtually completely avoided for 20+ years

As always, technology changes at the flip of a switch.

Steam Machine whether successful or not wont do much for what is already a huge and rapidly growing market share

I don't even regularly use linux but I'm not ignorant of its advantages in terms of gaming

Make the machine capable of upgrades. Right now they are more dead ended than a prebuilt Dell. Fucking pathetic.

>It's 2008 and Android is doomed, how many devs want to write applications for it when iPhone has majority of market share
But yes, sadly you are right about current situation.
Android had grown so much because there was shitload of manufacturers making phones with it.
Valve on the other hand, has how many manufacturers making Stem Machines? 5?
How do we convince Valve to get more manufacturers on SteamOS bandwagon?

>bigger library than both current-gen consoles combined
>consoles are good platform for gaming
>Steam Machines are not
oh, I forgot, hurrr durr only indieshit on SteamOS and indie games are not real games
