Today was a big day for gamers as Valve just introduced three products: the Steam Controller, the Steam Machine, and the Steam Frame. When you add this alongside the Steam Deck, I think it’s safe to say that Valve is about to win the next console generation.

    I am so excited for the frame. The only problem with it so far is that my eyes suck ass and their support for glasses is by all accounts not sufficient yet

    But aside from that I’m about ready to give them whatever amount of money they ask for it

      My eyes also suck ass but it looks like glasses fit just like in the index, and they’ll have first party inserts (whereas with the index you had to find third party ones). It also supposedly has a spacer if you need more space, which is something I wish was a thing for the Index because I couldn’t let some of my friends try because their glasses were too big and they couldn’t see without glasses.

        and they’ll have first party inserts

        Woah, is this confirmed? Because that makes is much more attractive to me.

          It was I think in the tested interview with norm and the optics guy when he asked about the lack of diopters, and after explaining why they didn’t add diopter adjustment (astigmatism), the engineer mentions that they’ve been able to make good corrective inserts and that they’re working on making that available. It doesn’t sound definite but it seems like it’s part of the current plan.
