This article is idiotic. “There are a number of steam deck killers already on the market”
Okay then why haven’t they killed the steam deck? Because they fucking aren’t steam deck killers, you can’t compete with that gaming library built in. I don’t give a shit how much better it performs on paper, if it’s pain in the ass to run games nobody will want it over a deck. Oh I have to install windows? Fuck that. So fucking tired of the “Insert Product Name Killer” thing. It’s bullshit
Um... seems you overlooked that the line links on an earlier article by them: Supposed Steam Deck killers are missing the point
They use that term in reference to that earlier article.
The sentence in the article, even if linking to an older article, should still make sense as a sentence on its own. Without the word “supposed” as the older article has, it just doesn’t.
