Rules:
- 1: No spam or advertising. This basically means no linking to your own content on blogs, YouTube, Twitch, etc.
- 2: No bigotry or gatekeeping. This should be obvious, but neither of those things will be tolerated. This goes for linked content too; if the site has some heavy "anti-woke" energy, you probably shouldn't be posting it here.
- 3: No untagged game spoilers. If the game was recently released or not released at all yet, use the Spoiler tag (the little ⚠️ button) in the body text, and avoid typing spoilers in the title. It should also be avoided to openly talk about major story spoilers, even in old games.

Most people don't need the newest and expensive tech. From the last 30 days of active games on Playstation brand, here a split
PS3/PS4/PS5(I just show a ratio that is set in relation to the numbers of players for the game), meaning left side is older console:https://ps-timetracker.com/statistic/last-30-days
- / 42 / 14Fortnite (3 times)- / 3 / 2Roblox (1.5 times)0 / 33 / 9Minecraft** (3.7 times)- / 14 / 9Cod:MW2 (1.6 times)- / 38 / 12GTA V (3.2 times)- / 23 / 8Rainbow Siege (2.9 times)- / 26 / 8Apex Legends (3.3 times)- / 17 / 7Overwatch 2 (2.4 times)- / 1 / 1EA Sports FC 24 (1 time)Edit: I have added simple math result in how many times the PS4 player base is big as the PS5 player base. Just out of curiosity and to provide a quicker way of scanning through the list.
(**ps3 players almost at 0 level for this game)
As you can see, all games are available for PS4 and they run decent enough, are multiplayer games and the new consoles do not offer anything substantial for these kind of players.
