I am so glad I abandoned video games in 2015. I feel for the rest of you, though.
Do you play retro games or literally nothing?
I have a few dumb mobile type games on my iPad that I play when I need to not think, and I watch a good friend play video games on twitch now and again while we chat about life over the phone.
I haven't owned a console since 2015 and am not on Steam. There are many games out there with amazing stories that I will miss out on, but I'm okay with it, tbh. I'll catch a playthrough on youtube if a game attracts my attention enough, but even that has been awhile. Nothing against games or gamers. I just lost interest one day and I never regained it.
I was exactly like you. my last console was the original Xbox.
I got a retroid pocket 5 and have done more gaming on that in 3 months than I did in the last 10 years.
highly recommend it for the casual gamer.
Super expensive, low quality cameras and mics, a janky looking chat, an okay screen, and having to buy games, some of which are years old (Looking at you BOTW), for more than their original buying prices. It's just greed. It's always greed. They saw PS and Xbox selling at already crazy prices and just tried to put the switch 2 in there like it's worth a car payment, or even up to a month's rent if you want the system, a few games, and a working camera (since the cheaper one is only 480p). And they're just coming out and saying they'll be monitoring your screen and chats (which I think more companies do than we think). And they'll brick your machine if they see any mods or emulations. Want to add a fun mod to Mario party? Get bricked, bitch.
If S2 looks appealing, I would highly recommend looking into the steam deck. I don't even have the steam deck and this whole promotion cycle has me eyeing it hard which how awful they're making the S2 launch.
I like my steam deck. It plays basically everything on steam whether it’s verified or not. Even games that don’t work well on it will still run.
Poor battery life means it’s tethered to the wall unless you’re just emulating or playing low end games.
The switch 2 will be cheaper on the secondary market and they will make a “lite” version that is cheaper or a “pro” version that makes the original cheaper. It never makes sense to buy a brand new console outside of keeping up with the joneses.
Or the Legion Go!
"Genesis does what Nintendon't!"
"Oh yeah? Well Nintendon't suck so I guess Genesis does."
"Bitch, please. You don't even got blood in Mortal Kombat."
"AT LEAST THE MUSIC DOESN'T SOUND LIKE FARTS!"
My comment is got blast processing, so I win
Holy shit that is a blast from the past.
I remember the days where you either did what Nintendon't or you were green or blue
Good ol' dayz
