I'm SO Starving for it that... I think I'm going to skip this new generation entirely.
Pretty much this.
I think I'm going to be riding out another generation on my PC. The console market keeps making itself unnecessarily complex with no appreciable gains to show for it, at least not for me personally.
The upcoming crop of consoles doesn't look to be much better either.
Nintendo is still flailing wildly and alienating me with its gimmicky hardware.
Sony is sacking backwards compatibility, or just compatibility in general while simultaneously developing some sort of social media fetish.
Microsoft is rumored to be gunning for always-online nonsense, and even if that turns out to be false their controllers just never felt right in my hands.
All of it is compounded by the trend of multi-platform releases, which means there will be plenty of games to pick from on the PC even if I skip consoles entirely.
I don't want to be a PC-only gamer, but I feel like that's where the market is currently pushing me. I'm not happy about that.
