Doesn’t exist here where I live, used market here for tech is non existent.
As for the reason I ain’t getting a phone/steam deck isn’t price, but that they are overkill for what I wan’t ( both steamdeck and phones are too big for what I wan’t ).
I just wan’t a small device like miyoo mini to play 2d games on the go.
I do wan’t premium, but if getting the premium will cost me 2x what people in other countries will pay it literally isn’t worth.
I don’t mind paying 600 euro for a handheld, but if it costs 300-400 usd in other countries I doubt about paying 2x the price for it.
Price isn’t an issue as in the price of the device, more in the sense of I don’t wanna pay double for less of a performance ( steamdeck is an overkill for what I need, I don’t plan on emulating any 3d consoles )
Phone’s and tablet’s here are very overpricced, to the point that it’s cheaper for me to get a generic handheld shipped 7 countries away than buying a phone locally/shipped.
Example: my current samsung galaxy a54 I bought last year costed me 525 euro here, while in the rest of the world it was around 300 usd on amazon for example ( I don’t order from amazon because amazon isn’t available in my country so shipping with it is very expensive ).
Steamdeck is an overkill for what I need rn.
Depends on the language, for example in croatia vegeta is the only one.
Vegeta is a name of a spice here, Try searching “Croatia Podravka Vegeta” and learn.
Was funny when I was in elementary school watching dbz.
Edit: Will just link it instead Croatian Vegeta
Thry have been doing it for about half a year for specific bundles only tho, not all of then
Proton came into existence in the later part of 2018, I jumped to linux about half a year before proton came out, so probably closer to 7 years now.
Jump the ship, I did 6 years ago, before even proton was a thing when games worked witha lot of thinkering.
Nowdays you habe so many great games working you won’t mind a couple of games not working because of all the other playable games.
Enter the balkans, where in that case it’s always golf 1-4
This happens in balkans/croatia.
A golf 2 was driving in front of me downhill around 70-80km/h before a curve. Enden up going off road and doing 4 rolls until back on tires. The driver just went out and check if the car was drivable. The next moment I see him just driving off like nothing ever happened.
While all thay was happenning I pulled over meaning to check whether the driver was fine, but seeing him coming out checking the car and just driving off the very next moment left me thinking “Eh, just another day in the balkans”.
I’m 21 and only play singleplayer stuff.
I do think that the fact I actually started playing games at 19 ( that’d when I got a laptop that could run games decently ) and the fact that no rl friend of mine had a pc just left me with mp/coop games with no friend’s to play with and I just didn’t like them.
So nowdays I play singleplayer stuff, especially latelly on the used ps4 I bought, stuff like bloodborne, yakuza 0, god of war, nier automata, …, and elden ring rn.
Never felt like it literally.
And that’s just part 1 out of 5.

Just connect it to a monitor and you have a regular pc, I have seen a lot of people use it as one with no issues.
They can always make a torrent of it and share it like that if they are in a country with barelly any dmca laws.
Those are just čevapi.
Arise balkan gang!
