1 year agoIt‘s really great to see more companies making mobile gaming PCs. The overall quality of these devices has really improved tremendously over the past few years.
Although the Ally doesn‘t appeal to me personally, as I‘d really miss the Steam Deck‘s touch pads, its great OS and all the mods the community has already built for it, I‘m really glad to see more companies throwing their hat in the ring. Mobile PC gaming seems to no longer be just a niche market, and that‘s great!
I‘m not sure if I‘m missing something, but I‘d be really surprised if Volition was doing fine. Agents of Mayhem didn‘t do well at all and the Saints Row reboot was pretty terrible. Their last somewhat successful launch was probably the Saints Row 4 expansion back in 2015.
It‘s always sad to see a developer shut down, especially one with such history. But I can honestly understand closing a studio which hasn‘t had any great release for over eight years.
