Stumbled upon this video, which kind of summarizes the issue: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EJxaIP8F3K8
In summary
- lack of risk taking by the industry
- lack of creativity
- industry prioritizes profit by making games compatible with the previous consoles generation
- removal of split screen
- outdated voice communication compared to PC Discord
- disabled voice communication by default
For people here who have a current console, what do you think about this?

I was so excited about the potential of the PS5 hardware, yet here we are and I’ve only really bought 2 games really made for it: Returnal and Stellar Blade. In the same timeframe I’ve also bought and played at least a dozen bangers on my Steam Deck, some of those being new releases like Hi-Fi Rush that the Deck could play flawlessly. AAA is an albatross.
