Even if you’re correct, it’s still too early, anyway. That’s my point.
The DS had a seven-year lifespan and the original Switch had eight. Even living room console have an average near decade long lifespan. So, of course Valve isn’t going to throw their money into a second generation.
The DS had countless iterations and refreshes. The Switch was Nintendo’s flagship product. I also never said the steamdeck was useless or done. You know I didn’t, yet you pretend like I’m treating it as if its practically e-waste. I was very specific/nuanced in how I talked about it. I don’t know why this is such an important hill for you to die on but I think I’m being more than fair to the deck.
If I didn’t think I could find good use for the steam deck for at least 5+ years then I wouldn’t have bought one. But like the Xbox Series S it is starting to show some age on more demanding titles. It is just reality, and for many people that’s not really a big deal. But for some it is.

Sounds like this is more of the fault of the AAA publishers than the console makers.

It fucking does matter. I’m tired of this stupid rat race.
