  • Valve is actually doing A LOT of work for content streaming, but not for the deck

    Valves upcoming VR headset (code named deckard) will have wireless VR streaming from a PC as an option, we know this as Valve accidently pushed the work they did into a public steamVR beta, not accessible but you could see the work done if you datamined it, SOOOO much work being done for video streaming

    but for some reason Valve hasn’t pushed all that work into steam remote play, Valves internal VR remote play they are working on is leagues ahead of their current remote play, and part of that work is allowing the streaming of flatscreen (non VR) games into the VR headset, so all this work is compatible with the existing remote play, but despite that fact, Valve just has not pushed this to the current remote play, they probably will once the deckard and their VR streaming launch, but where looking at a year until that announcement at the earliest

    its just frustrating knowing Valve could improve an aspect of steam and the deck with 1 click and just because its technically work being done for a separate project, Valve isn’t willing to press the button, its just like how it took FOREVER for Valve to replace steam big picture with the deckUI, despite the fact that the decksUI is built into steam and from the second the deck released people found out how to enable the UI on desktop steam
