      The thing is that we had a pandemic when PS5 released. It was a perfect time for scalpers to mass buy and sell overpriced. People were desperate to get their hands on the new console (also the 3000 Nvidia series), especially when you had to stay under quarantine. This time around most people got current gen consoles and their desired PCs. Scalpers will definitely not touch this shit.

    This quote really resonates with me: "I already accepted the fact that I am no longer the target market for the majority of things people are making". I am noticing I am really checking out on a lot of stuff, weather it's consoles, videogames, movies, media subscriptions, new phones. The thick layer of greed in providing goods & services is getting so obvious and obnoxious that I am opting out on a lot of things. Not because I am not potentially interested, but I am tired of being used as a walking wallet/cash machine.

      Ultimately it's a completely optional luxury product (as bad of a product as it appears). PS5 still seems like a much better value and product for vast majority of gamers. You can also buy a PS5 used/refurbished $300ish, so that is still the way for nearly everyone.

Though yes, you do get used to it after a while and its not terrible, unlike 30. I have no idea how people play games at 30 fps, not only does it look like a slideshow, even the inputs are so unresponsive. Its just a terrible experience.

      I think it actually came from a "we aren't a giant tech conglomerate like sony or microsoft", and Iwata's documented love of Apple. The latter's Jobsian philosophy focuses more on how people use hardware (at least in Iwata's application) as compared to raw power especially at around 2004 when PPC lost its efficiency edge. Nintendo didn't have the power of companies like AMD/NVIDIA (no, Flipper/Hollywood (GCN/Wii GPUs) don't count, since they were made by ArtX who was bought out by ATI and share no lineage with R300/Xenos (ATI's then chips). )

      Sony: “Nope. We're selling the disk drive separately, upping the price exponentially, and upgrading the specs. You have to play current gen only.”
      Me: “The specs for regular PS5 are fine. This is unnecessary. I will keep my physical disks, thank you. And I am tired of switching cables when I want to play an old game. I want my old games to run faster without that hassle. Barely anything these days are made like those old ones. I don't care about upgrading specs these days. The regular PS5 filled my satisfaction on that. I want unique and fun gameplay, beautiful visual styles and art direction, and creative premise that has not been done to death. I want my unfed niches fed.”

I buy everything and like collecting even though i have 2 beast gaming rigs 7950x3d 4090 and 7800x3d nitro 7900xtx i play many games on console because i like buying a physical copy. Many times i end up buying 2 copies of the same game to play on consoles and pc. But if i can play games at 1440p or 4k at 60fps I’m perfectly happy on a console. And we will probably see more games run 120hz with the Pro. I have a series x, ps5, og switch, oled switch, steam deck 512gb, asus ally, and a couple laptops 13900hx 4080, 10875h 4070S, 8750h 1070.

I’m guessing that’s the target market for PS5 Pro, the same people who are gullible enough to spend $1000+ on the SAME phone with minor upgrades every year or two, are the ones who are gonna spend $700+ on a game console with minor upgrades. My iPhone X works fine, and unless it breaks, I don’t plan on getting a new one until iPhone 20 or something, on top of that I’ll just wait for the PS6 or the Steam Deck 2 when it comes to gaming.

      Thing with upscaling is the processor works harder to complete more task, which generates more heat. I would not be shocked if this system has some thermal issues or fan noises. I take native over upscaled any day.

  • @shepardcommander9960
    @shepardcommander9960 Місяць тому

    People said the same things about the ps4 pro when it came out and the main thing people had an issue with was the increased price over base. By the end of the ps4 generation (prior to ps5 launching) the base model ps4 was barely able to play any games at a stable 30 fps. That was the only time the ps4 pro actually felt worth the investment because it handled those games like a champ. It's still powerful enough apparently today to continue getting current-gen ports to it if that's saying anything. What does all this mean? Probably nothing and those that buy the pro will maybe get a few more years of enjoyment out of it without feeling the need to upgrade to a ps6.
    I feel like the "Pro" models are their own userbase entirely now. They hold out the longest for mid-gen refreshes and my only evidence for this is the fact Sony is accepting trade-in's for the PS4 Pro to go towards the PS5 Pro pre-order. They're trying to get those specific users to upgrade.
