Personally i found the experience on 7th gen consoles so shit already that i switched back to the PC when the 8th gen came around and never looked back.

Its a bit dumb to mime the Nostragamerus after the fact. But i've seen the trajectory a long time coming.

    Tbf mostly the general vibe and direction the whole industry took at the time. So i didnt want to be locked in a closed walled garden.

    Eg giant day one patches, DLCs, MTX, paid online, shitty and slow servers, revoked digital licences(happened to me with Driver SF on the 360), shitty updates to the UI, intentional blocking of last-gen/unlicensed 3rd party peripherals, etc

    tbf some aspects were 360 exclusive but the PS4 caught up on most shitty aspects. I liked the aspect of consoles where you just put in the game media and then you played. That was it. Consoles got more complicated with 7th gen while PC gaming got a lot easier with eg Steam at the same time.
