SSD for sure. Even on devices less powerful the general desktop experience is superior on ssd than a more powerful PC. Boot time and programs load up so much faster making the OS feel way snapier instead of a constant wait for even a browser to load.

When I used it the launcher would constantly forget my login. And then for older games like Splinter Cell it asked for a login everytime I launched the game. It was ridiculous.

PS5 has been the generation of PS4 remasters/remakes. PS5 might as well be the PS4 Pro Pro and the PS5 Pro the PS4 Pro Pro Pro.

Makes sense I hop to a new game after I finish. Looked to buy new games to play when I was little for variety. Never bought skins people these days go crazy about since that's money I'd rather spend on new games.

People would probably be like are they going to pay my bills? No? Whatever.

State of Fifa and NBA games is depressing. Even the annual release for roster updates wasn't something I liked, but it being full on freemium casino at annual full price is why I stopped getting sports games years ago. Left too bad a taste to get ripped off like that.

I think it's better to just admit someone doesn't care and they want to consume than trying to creating some moral loopholes for why it is excusable for a product they really want.

It's like piracy. Some try so hard to morally justify it. Others just admit I want it for free. In the end we just want to consume. I sure do. I want my product.

If someone is conflicted then best is to wait for a steep sale, bundle, or giveaway so it's a decreased cut. Either way it's a win win for the wallet and I don't most people have trouble finding time to finish games and a backlog that keeps growing than having no games to play.

Nobody at Sony had eyes.

If people don't refrain from buying then boycotts won't work. Gaming community is more effective at creating noise than not buying a product they want.

What do you think I meant by people won't refrain from buying. People not buying products they weren't going to buy anyways isn't a boycott. Do you trust the gaming community to actually not buy something they want?

People are misunderstanding that boycotts won't work in this case means a boycott isn't going to happen.
