Looks like he wants to get the gaming community on his side. Clever.

Every opportunity where diversity can grow is a good one. I'm glad they will try to build national alternatives to a US dominated market, which is never a good thing. They'll probably be cheaper which is a good thing keeping in mind the Steam Deck is expensive unless you live in the first world.

So we're back to the Soviet Union playing catch-up with western technology for propaganda points.

No catch-up needed, got first prototypes already!

Yeah, like the space war where the US fascists won, oh right the Soviet Union was ahead on virtually everything except the Moon landing.

At least don't make it sound like it was one sided, the Anglo empire did the same shit for propaganda as the USSR, it was just another kind of propaganda, a bourgeois one.
