Stumbled upon this video, which kind of summarizes the issue: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EJxaIP8F3K8

In summary

  • lack of risk taking by the industry
  • lack of creativity
  • industry prioritizes profit by making games compatible with the previous consoles generation
  • removal of split screen
  • outdated voice communication compared to PC Discord
  • disabled voice communication by default

For people here who have a current console, what do you think about this?

    Have I stumbled upon the only Switch comment about indie that doesn’t have a Steam Deck response?

    Wait… What have I done…

      People are mentioning handheld consoles when talking about handheld consoles? So weird.

      Part of the value of the Switch is being able to put it in the dock and connect to TV. It’s a lot harder to co-op when you only have the little screen.

        I mean, I’m all for play what you want, thus my joke, but the SD can do that, too.
