There’s also the point that game quality has gone down significantly. If I were to build a new rig which would cost me an arm and a leg, I would still just play games that my current PC can already run anyway. I don’t wanna play the newest CoD-slop or some tech-demo with MTX-shop disguised as a game. The newest games I really enjoyed were Monster Sanctuary (Unity-based monster collector metroidvania-like) and Balatro (no introduction necessary). A toaster can run these.

DMZ 2 is coming though… I haven’t had fun like back when DMZ was playable. Not defending cod in any way other than DMZ is life
What’s Balatro?
Slay the Spire but with poker hands instead of medieval-fantasy-combat
