    Seems like company decision makers continue to be out of touch with what people want. People seem much more excited about products like the steam deck which play most of your whole library on Linux at very reasonable quality.

    I think the console exclusivity game is nearing the end, there’s going to have to be some actual innovation for people to come out of their pockets.

      I don’t know about the rest of the world but my country is in a recession. There are no jobs and no houses. Rent is huge.

      The number of people who can buy expensive toys is going down. People want good value for money, and good value for money is winning the market.

    As a lifelong lover of video games, this generation is pretty underwhelming, bar a few exceptions like Gran Turismo 7. I don’t even buy Switch games anymore because the value proposition is so bad. I’d love that Mario RPG remake but instead, I just play the original on an emulator.
