Stumbled upon this video, which kind of summarizes the issue: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EJxaIP8F3K8

In summary

  • lack of risk taking by the industry
  • lack of creativity
  • industry prioritizes profit by making games compatible with the previous consoles generation
  • removal of split screen
  • outdated voice communication compared to PC Discord
  • disabled voice communication by default

For people here who have a current console, what do you think about this?

    I have a PS5 that has probably run for less than six hours, but I have two XBox Series S that are used daily. I never give my smart TVs network access and use my XBox as my main multimedia entertainment device. Add to that Gamepass and the fact that they are hardwired to my network and I can play a ton of games on it too, whether it is downloaded or through XCloud.
