Yeah, I think if you have a PS5, it only makes sense if you want to play first party Nintendo games. I've considered getting a PS5 several times, third party games will always run better there. I bought Mortal Kombat 11 for Switch and it runs like crap, just that experience made me think more of getting a PS5! I have a decent laptop I inherited, which runs games pretty well (not a high level last gen thing, but decent enough). I play some games there, but (maybe because I work with computers) I prefer gaming on the couch/elsewhere.
No ethical consumption under capitalism and all that. But escapism with videogames is fun and helps one cope with the state of the world for a little while.
oh absolutely, I'm the last one to judge someone for a gaming console. Sony is definitely not a clean company either. I'm also more of a couch gamer nowadays - desks are just so uncomfy
