I can’t spend the crazy amount of money it would take to build a new tower right now. I have a 5070 laptop, that’ll have to do I guess. I’ll delete Sony accounts.
As much as I agree with you about owning your games and moving to Linux PC, I have to disgree when you say there is 0 reason to be on a closed ecosystem as a gamer.
I’ll probably never buy a Playstation again as I’m in the process of moving my gaming to Linux (Steam Deck for now, gaming rig when the prices go down), but Sony games used to be/are great and everything works perfectly out of the box.
Pc gaming/Linux is becoming better, but it’s not there yet for ease of use.
If you actually give a shit, delete your sony account and move to pc.
There’s a reason why Sony announced their digital-only platform around this time. People who bought a PS5 want to play games while not spending the money you’d need for a PC. Now with RAM, graphics cards and storage prices going to the clouds, even less people are able to build/buy a PC. Even if the PS6 costs 799€ (or something around that price range), it will be way cheaper than buying/building a PC, especially since the crisis won’t stop in the near future.

I’m ready to make the sacrifice, but a lot of people aren’t because consoles still have advantages.
That’s why I have to react when people are saying that consoles have nothing over PC. It’s true for us, but not for everyone.

Imo, I think it is still difficult for many people to build a PC even if you give them all the parts that they need
