        modern yakuza games, for example, will all be digital paperweights on pc as soon as the denuvo online activation servers go down. ps5 copies will still work as long as there is a functioning console and a functional disk.

    I don’t care about mods or FPS in the hundreds. I care that the games are discounted to a reasonable price, include all the content, and fully patched/ optimized.

    Console players swing overwhelmingly toward the younger side. I don’t think kids without any semblance of understanding of what they’re missing out on feel like they’re missing out.

      Honestly I think this is just a good summary of console players. I’m not young, but I play console, and don’t think about PC… ever. I’m happy PC players found their niche, I’m happy with mine, let’s talk about the games we love!
