Half of PS4 Owners Haven't Upgraded To PS5 Yet, But Why?

  • As part of Sony's last financial report, we saw that they have a total of 118 monthly active users on PSN. And it turns out it's a fairly even split across PS4 and PS5. On it's own that seems pretty normal considering PS5 is entering the back half of its life, with more console sales on the way. But it does raise an interesting talking point. Will PS4 be able to handle its legacy years better than something like PS3? I think so. And that's why we do be talkin' it up in hur. Ya dig?

      It's easy to see why. Sony doesn't make it an incentive for gamers to switch to PS4. First of all, the games for PS4 online are always on sale. Second, the price of PS5 games are expensive and they are riddled with micro transactions. Third, PS4 has a huge library that many haven't dipped into yet which brings to the fourth reason. It's cheaper to get a PS4 and play PS4 games. PS4 is a well built console. The only reason to get a PS5 is if your PS4 breaks down. That's it really

      I'll tell you why for load times imagine waiting 15 to 20 seconds everytime you want to fast travel or enter and exit a building. Ps4 load times are abysmal by comparison, all ps4 games run significantly better on ps5. Only reason people aren't even talking about this is because they haven't experienced how fast the console truly is first hand I can go from a dragon battle in Skyrim straight to a race in need for speed or to a match in Mortal Kombat almost instantly. Graphics and exclusives are the last things I cared about when upgrading

    My take is, it's been 4 years since the PlayStation 5 was announced and the price hasn't decreased at all even with the Slim model and Slim models have always been cheaper than the O.G model by a lot since the PlayStation 1. Not every gamer can afford to get the PlayStation 5 now and some don't even need to get it since there are still good PlayStation 4 games that is coming. I still have my PS4 and I have no desire to get the PlayStation 5 because no ways I would pay R13500/$500 for a nearly 4 year old console that has never had a price decrease.

At this point, I don't even think PlayStation/Sony even gives a damn about us. Waited for Black Friday & Cyber Monday for deals to happen, only deals I could find everywhere were Xbox Series S/X deals with them being $25-$50 off of sale price.

    Here's the harsh reality.
    This economy is horrible and inflation is steep this time around. The essential needs have become extremely expensive. The gaming industry isn't immune to this and our purchasing power as a whole has declined. As much as we're all gamers and love to play, it's not a necessity when times are rough and you need a roof over your head, food to eat, and have bills to pay. People are cutting back on things they don't absolutely need because they have to. This on top of not hanging a more enticing exclusive line up and boom, no upgrade.

People mocked it but it came with a hard drive either 20GB or 60GB as standard, the CECHA model had WiFi as standard, both had Blu-ray disc players as standard at a time when a standalone player was more expensive than a PS3, plus full compatibility with every previous generation game from the discs you already owned. Basically all things the Xbox 360 didn't without buying upgrades and (or never got, like Blu-ray), it had from new.
      People might have disagreed with the price but this still offers more features compared to consoles today - the PS5 can't even play CDs, for example. PS3 was the last PlayStation to be able to do that. There's a reason the original PS3s are still worth a lot used today.
      Xbox 360 usually had the best cross platform titles though. I'd always use the 360 for stuff like that over the PS3.

      Regardless, the PS3 launch was a mess and acting like it was such a great value compared to the PS5 based on a bunch of deprecated features no one cares about anymore is ridiculous. You might as well also bring up the PS3’s CF and memory stick slots while you’re at it seeing as the PS5 also doesn’t have those. There are LOADS of cheap CD players out there if you want one so bad.
      The blu ray thing is sort of valid, based on the hype around blu ray at the time but that was already the PS2’s biggest party trick and that launched for $299 USD ($544 today). Plus the PS3’s weird cell architecture is one of the biggest reasons PS5 backward compatibility is so up and down in the first place. It severely handicapped the PS3’s market performance back then and it’s still handicapping the PS4 and 5 today.
      I’m with you on the 360 though, it was definitely the better all around place to play most games, again partly thanks to some games being unavailable/delayed/worse on PS3 due to the cell chip, but also since the 360 laid the groundwork for a modern social gaming network.

The innovation isn't apparent, but the innovation is there. They need to perfect the heating stuff, they did it. They need to perfect the Ray Tracing. They kind-of did, the PS5 pro is gonna be Sony's "ah ha" moment.
      But again misunderstand me, I really don't care. I like smart people. You're not.

    Part of the problem is we are nearly 4 years into this generation and the price of these current gen consoles just arent dropping. Im willing to bet that a large chunk of players still on PS4 were late adopters when the PS4 was discounted, and they are waiting for the same thing to happen with PS5. You cannot expect mass adoption when your console is still sitting at 450-500.00.

Sony doesn't need to drop price because they are doing so well with PS5 they are first place. they nave no competition. so they are happy with the way things are. also PS4 never gt a drop sadly. and PS5 only got a raise because of inflation due to pandemic. but yet the cost of parts went down and stuff still went up.. damned if you do damned if ya don't.

    The PS3 was such a magical era of gaming for me. At that point in time in 2011 the only consoles I’ve had that were actually mine was the DS lite and the Wii (also had the original DS), I feel like my world has been truly opened up. Me and my sister got an original Xbox for Christmas one year, of course I mainly played it but she played The Sims a lot on it too. I remember going home in the car when I got my PS3, it came with Medal of Honor and Uncharted 2 Among Thieves. Which was my first PlayStation first party game I had played. Still to this day the PS3 is so impressive to me because of its catalogue of games, but also I had pictures and music on it as well. Three GTA games, quite a few Transformer games, and who could forget PlayStation Home? I love the PS4 and PS5, but PS3 has the aura to it. It’s not just nostalgia, it’s just an amazing product. I’d love to get another one again one day and play some stuff before the servers go down.

      I calculated it with the February exchange rate and I got my PS5 slim for $495 USD, €460 or 5285 SEK. As of today, in Sweden you can buy it for SEK 6850, give or take, which is $645 in today's dollar.

Depending on where someone lives in the US it varies on the amount. So when the PS5 shows the price of $500, that is before sales tax. At the checkout point or at the cash register, they will add the tax. So final price can be $550 plus or minus depending on the state you live in. I've seen anywhere between 6% sales tax all the way to around 16% sales tax.

What I didn't realize is for fast loading to work, a game had to be made with that in mind and be a PS5 version. My PS4 games loaded the same on PS5. They maybe a little faster, but 10 seconds or something off a minute loading isn't that noticeable, really.
      The only big difference I noticed between the two systems is the UI is fast and I could multitask (like edit a video and upload it while I was still in a game session.

    The cost, bro. We're either having a rough time in our lives to where we are putting financial responsibilities first and paying down debts and getting rent paid before we can actually save up and buy a PS5.

    What people don't seem to account for is the fact that while it may have a similar install base to the PS4 of a similar time period, by the same time through a cycle the PS4's price had decreased. Whereas the PS5's has not decreased by much if at all. That will definitely play a huge part in what will happen from here. Not to mention that a lot of people felt like Sony would continue their trend of releasing high quality games like they did during the PS4 era but have been burned by the lack of effort so they're more hesitant to jump ship on something that just frankly isn't worth the price.

    I think people overlook the fact that there haven't been a price drop on neither one of these systems. The Playstation 5 the Xbox Series X are both still $500. The Xbox One and PS4 seen a price drop by this time, even before the pro models came out. The lack of a price drop, along with a vast majority of the games being on both current and last gen is definitely some of the main reasons.

Who wants to fork out on a new piece of hardware and then again on games that aren’t that different to what they already have on ps4.

  • @chemergency
    @chemergency Місяць тому +90

    PS5 doesn't have the kind of exclusives to justify a $500 console and $70 games in this economy, raising PS+ prices is just driving more online gamers to PC as can clearly be seen with Helldivers II for example, and supply issues from the pandemic have basically killed its sales momentum. Obviously Microsoft's not doing much better either this whole console generation is struggling and it's not hard to see why. This might be the weakest console lineup we've had since the days of the Atari 5200.
    If GTAVI somehow ends-up being disappointing or subpar in some way to the point that it impacts sales (unlikely but not outside the realm of possibility given Rockstar's increasing cynicism, greed, and hostile, antagonistic attitude towards fans) then it'll be safe to say at that point that this entire generation is a failure and the next one will need to be a drastic pivot towards what consumers actually want instead of this dystopian Hellscape of live service penny-pinching, stick-drifting, and digital-only anti-preservation.

The setup can be a little aggravating if you are transferring multiple ps4 games over to your ps5, but all in all I’m glad I upgraded.

    Probably the biggest reason is because of its price. Even after several years now, it's still quite expensive. Not everyone has rich parents, nor a job that pays $50 an hour.

    It was a supply chain issue at first, where a lot of people opted for PC and Xbox. For everyone else, by the time the supply chain shortage was resolved there was a huge inflation crisis going on where coming up with an extra $500 for a console was really hard to come by for alot of people 🤷‍♂️

      thats my line of thinking but honestly the only way i would get a PS5 is if my PS4 dies or disc drive stop working. and if PS6 is digital only then PS6 is a hard pass i'll go PC if i want digital for my games. at least i get a wide variey of deals and many more games thats on PC consoles do not get.

      If the PS5 was such a little improvement to the PS4, what makes you think anyone will bother buying a PS6? It will be the same thing just with tweaked performance and hardware… at that point, most people would just stay on PS5 or get a PC… Trust me, we are gonna be on PS5 for the next 8-10 years, there is nothing else to upgrade, games have beautiful graphics now and have been running very smoothly on PS5 to the point where if you want a dramatic change, you won’t see it happen on PS6, people would rather just buy a PC for that dramatic change in performance and graphics…

    I'm one of those who are still playing PS4. To me it's hard to find a reason to upgrade as I mainly play JRPGs, and pretty much all of them are available on PS4, even the latest titles like Trails of Daybreak or Metaphor Refantazio. I'll definitely get a PS5 when developers like Falcom or Gust have completely moved on to the current generation console. Until then, I'm fine with the PS4.

    the shortages destroyed FOMO and cemented the fact people could just get the same games on older platforms. That it went on for an extended period I think is a large part of it. Many people, me included also refuse to pay $70 for a new game because you do not receive the game for that price, only the entry to the game.

    The biggest reason is the wide range and variety of games with a huge library of PS4 videogames that players and gamers prefer to play it on old gen as well as because of the price and total cost of the PS5 still relatively high even though it decreased in price with all the bundles. Many enjoy all the PS4 exclusives especially to play it on their PS4 console and experience it on the old school system is also a passion to play.

    My personal reason is there's not enough exclusive games I'm interested in, & the rest is multiplatform I can purchase elsewhere. I miss the days of Jak & Daxter & The Older God of War & Ratchet & Clank /Uncharted.
    That & the console is expensive & I patiently wait on game price drops & sales, their not getting $70 out of me lol
    A good chance alot of the multiplatform game's will come to Nintendo Switch 2. I'll just wait & buy that instead.😎
    I'm still rocking my PS4 Pro & older consoles.

      One of the reasons is that Sony fell for the Xbox strategy and made most of its exclusives multi-platform to PC. On PC you can now have Xbox games, PC games and now some PS games. So what's the point in holding a PS5?

      That's not a legit reason. You can play 99% of Ps4 library on the Ps5. The ps5 is backwards compatible with ps4 games. You can play virtually all ps4 games on the ps5 via disc or digitally, regardless of ps5 upgraded version or not. But you said "enhanced" so my interpretation is, because there's no enhanced version of the game you want to play, you're going to refuse to upgrade... why choose not to upgrade when you can play the same game on the ps5 when it runs exactly the same as on PS4...
      Also, a lot of the new games you're going to want to play that are coming out won't be available on ps4, so sooner or later you're going to want/need to upgrade.
