Yea the reason sony is doing this now is because it’s the dead zone of this generation cycle. Console sales are falling, people are cancelling PS Plus subscriptions, and they’re taking the hits deliberately now so it’s ancient history by the time they announce PS6.
Boycotting now means very little. There’s already an natural boycott happening as people have lost interest in console gaming. It’s just a reaction to being upset, rather than a real sacrifice targeted to inflict the pain necessary for Sony to consider changing.
People haven’t lost interest in gaming. The entire global economy has gone to crap. People dont have the disposable income they used to have, and food, gas, and utilities are more important to buy than video games.
Many people have moved to PC gaming because they already have a PC and Steam and GOG have very affordable games and vast libraries to choose from that isn’t available on console, most of which are unlikely to have performance problems on their device. PC also has the most discount sale events for games, I am pretty sure.
If they could actually afford it, gaming spending would be higher, especially on walled garden consoles. Guaranteed.
They have stopped making optical drives because they are obsolete. You could see it coming a few months ago when the disc version was being dumped off at only $50 more.
Also its kind of difficult to put a 250gb game on a disk. Id be very surprised if the disk held any info whatsoever nowadays past a license.
I think the problem there are some games that are exclusive for the console, or at least for a limited period of time.
I think portable consoles like Nintendo switch is the future.
