  • I think I made it clear why this reminded me of bad reddit posts.

    You clearly have more knowledge about portable gaming laptops than I have. So my opinion might be based in ignorance. I am hardly whining though.

    I feel like having several items (laptop plus controller) to carry around is a bigger dealbreaker than having a bigger device. Though I agree that an increase in size and weight can be problematic.

    I also never wanted to imply that this community has no value and I am sorry I gave that impression.

    I’m not being bitter. I just feel that the wording of the original post is pretty baity. You’re unhappy with size and weight, and that is a valid point worth discussing. But making the jump to laptops? Hyperbolic engagement bait. I don’t like it. If others do, that’s fine. But I feel this trend of engagement bait is bad for platforms in general. And I want to keep the illusion up that lemmy is better than this.

    If it isn’t, then I still feel it’s worthwhile to point out that discussions can be had without the hyperbole.

    Aren’t you missing the point? The portability and formfactor (controller) is what makes handheld pcs like this worthwhile. A laptop is a laptop, it’s not really made for portable play and you’d need to lug around a controller.

    I stopped using Reddit because of shitposts like these and here we are again.

    Quentin is a very busy man who isn’t always up to the most current episodes of everything anyway. I would be surprised if he manages to watch Anime all that regular, but I agree and think that if I share his thoughts on here, I just do it for Foot Friday.
