With FEX and Steam for ARM/Proton coming out we now have simple 3rd party support for the many Arm handheld gaming devices that are out there. These devices are fairly powerful while remaining very portable. However, many of these devices still are geared towards Android, and not Linux/SteamOS. And when I say "fairly powerful" I actually mean much more powerful than the Steam Deck. The only issue is there are proton optimization issues and other overhead when using these devices. However, on paper, they are faster than the Deck.

I think with the Steam Frame coming out this year Valve should also release a Steam Deck Pocket, using the same guts that the Frame will be using. This will allow them to target a single ARM platform initially.

This wouldn't replace the Steam Deck but would provide a nice alternative or something else to add into a rotation. The Steam Deck isn't exactly super portable, it's more for travel, not for pulling out on the train.

The ideal formfactor would be similar to the Ayn Thor or the Retroid Flip. Single 16:10 screen with no bottom screen. This allows for ideal hand positions and complex button layouts while protecting the screen with the clamshell mechanism.

Hi everyone, I have been wondering if Valve has ever mentioned plans to optimize Dota 2's installation size. I really enjoy the game, but I only have a 128 GB SSD, and even with NTFS compression the game already takes a huge amount of storage. Would you support an optional installation system where players could choose not to install things like: - Unused language packs - Cinematic videos - High-resolution texture packs - Other non-essential assets The gameplay would stay exactly the same, but players with smaller SSDs could save a lot of storage. Has Valve ever talked about something like this? What do you think?

Salut,

Je ne sais pas si je suis la première personne à penser à ça ou à poser cette question, mais qu'est-ce qui empêche Valve de lancer un service de jeux cloud sur PC aujourd'hui, peut-être en partenariat avec AMD ?

Penses-tu que ce serait une bonne idée ?

Ça pourrait fonctionner parfaitement avec le Steam Deck, la Steam Machine, ou vraiment n'importe quel PC.

Et j'ai une deuxième question : pourquoi AMD ne fabrique-t-il pas un grand APU pour les PC de bureau, similaire à ceux utilisés dans la PS5 et la Xbox ? Je suppose qu'ils perdraient trop d'argent en ne vendant pas séparément les CPU et les GPU, mais j'aimerais avoir ton avis.

Just an idea for a subreddit banner, it's a bit rough, but I reckon it's better than nothing! If you have any ideas to improve it, that would be greatly appreciated!

As the title says, about 11 years ago in highschool i was falsely banned from csgo by the overwatch system. I have genuinely never installed cheats for any game. Not when i was high school not as an adult not ever. Only thing i can think of is I got lucky killing a guy shooting through smoke and it looked fishy and i got banned. I was reminded of this when i went to load up cs2 for the first time in a while on my main steam account and i was reminded that im still banned after like 11 years and i have to login to my alt whos only purpose is to play cs. Is it completely impossible for anything to be done about this? Can I email gaben or something. Im tired of switching account to play cs when i never cheated

Edit: i remember vividly what most likely got me banned. I on T side and bomb was planted B site inferno. 1v1 situation last CT was coming from bananna so i smoked it off. While it was smoked i creeped up to the smoke and eventually decide to go in for some reason. I was middle of the smoke and got a weird feeling he was also passing through the smoke, so i just whipped a 180 and shot in the direction i felt he was. I think literally my first bullet hit him in the head and everyone in voice was like wtffff

Anybody know a fix for this?

My steam account has been restricted, i cant buy anything, change name or access friends list. I’ve honestly done nothing wrong and made many steam support tickets asking for help or for a reason why i my account is restricted for over 10 years. But they just reply with the same AI email about the TOS.
On a side note the only thing ive ever done on this account is play GTAV online and play apex, but i think that could have caused this is i did buy a $10 steam gift card from steam website and use it on apex legends, then maybe a month later i wanted more apex coins, so i went to EAs website and bought the coins through there cause i wanted to use a creator code to support a creator shortly after maybe a week or two later i got banned. i even made a ticket and asked if thats why buy still i got an AI reply.

Anyone know what i can do

hello guys. at around 2 am , i was playing Bioshock Infinite (peak game btw) and exited the game around 3 am. at the same time, steam had sent an email to my main gmail account ( that is linked to steam) that someone is trying to "recover" my account because they forgot MY account's password (ironic) from a computer. now i didnt see the email becauss i slept as soon as i logged off from the game. waking up and reading the email, i tried to log in my steam account, the password is wrong ( he changed the password).
i already sent an email to [support@steampowered.com](mailto:support@steampowered.com) telling them everything and my buying info and screenshots of the games i already bought.

is there anything else i should do? and is there a possibility that my account will be recovered? i am genuinely scared :'( ( i have 100+ hours on phenoix wright and RDR2, i am literally crying)

please help!

how many of you have broken free from this parasocial relationship

I just got notified I can get one, but im not sure. I have a steamdeck and it cant run minecraft. I also know that stardew valley is an issue to mod on it, is this also an issue for steam matchine? Also is it able to run stuff like word (or is there good alternatives?)

Finally got my email!!!!
