    I think the point they’re making is that the insane 80+ hour work weeks talked about in the article are, well, insane. What’s even more insane is if they are working 80+ hours a week and only making $120K-$200K, they’re actually just making $60K-$100K or less in what would be a 40 hour week, with the price of giving up your life and sanity.








  • Listen, I love my Steam Deck, but it isn’t a reasonable replacement for heavy Switch users, like this guy and his family. It’s not exactly a high-spec’d machine and as a result, in my experience, none of the Switch games play at their original FPS on the Deck. Some are so bad that they are unplayable. Online play is going to be, at best, limited and far more difficult to manage. Heck, setting it up in general for kids that probably just want to play the damn games is going to be more annoying. The worst part would be listening to, “Dad, why can’t we just buy a Switch?” a thousand times.
