    Honestly, that’s the entire reason i lost interest in consoles after buying the PS4. If i need to:
    1 Boot up the console.
    2 Update the system (twice).
    3 PSN account bullshit.
    4 Insert disc.
    5 Install the game.
    6 Download 50GB update for the game.
    7 Install said update.
    8 Finally start the game.
    9 Login and TOS bullshit.
    10 Finally play game.

    I might just as well use my PC for gaming at that point. The games library is larger and the exclusives are just not worth it. Especially after Sony started releasing those on PC as well.

      They put a stop to that, and now it’s more clear why: they want absolute control over the price of their games.

      i’ve never had to spend hours finding the ‘right driver’ for my PS4 to run a game. or having to mod the game to get it to just play.

      which is why i gave up on PC gaming, I’m old and I just want to play games, I don’t wnat to spend 2-3 hours ‘troubleshooting’ every game on my PC and having to swap drivers because some games only run on some drivers.
