They-dude, we're getting RE Requiem on PS4. We're getting Mario Kart World tracks ported to Mario Kart Wii. I will NEVER upgrade.

Edit: I have been informed by my research team Requiem is not getting a PS4 release. We will play a Game Boy Color Demake of it in 2032 then.

TBH a major part of why I wanted a gaming PC was so that I could pirate games. I can't do that on a PS4. Even though I only ever buy games on sale, I still wince at how much I've spent over time especially on some games that I just ended up not liking and never playing, games that would have been free if I had pirated them.

There are also a lot of games that make sense on PC that just don't work with consoles/controllers, like most RTS games. There are a lot of games I would love to play that are on console, but I don't get them because it's the mods that make them worth playing, but I can't install mods on a console. I don't play any multiplayer games because I'd have to pay a monthly fee for PS+ that I'm just not willing to pay, but playing those games multiplayer on PC is free.

I don't really care much about having the greatest bestest graphics ever (although higher frame rate on anything is easier on my headaches which does make a huge difference), and if I can't run the latest AAAA slop, then whatever, that's fine, nbd. But I do care a lot about having some control over the hardware my games run on and thus the games themselves, and there is just none on console.
