That’s a odd stance to take. How would you be a thousand times happier if consoles didn’t exist?
Consoles still have their place in gaming and to think otherwise is somewhere ignorant. Just live the best of both worlds like the rest of us and don’t get so wound up!
Because a company wouldn’t get to decide on which hardware I get to play the software I paid for? It’s pretty obvious, really.
What other industries would you find this acceptable? Could a restaurant force you to only eat beans on their locations? Would Coca-Cola be able to demand you only drink their beverage on glass cups? What if you could only watch your favorite basketball team on Sony branded televisions?
You decide where to (or not to) buy and play the games you want. Like I said there is no requirement to stick to 1 platform and you honestly sound so wound up by this opinion I’m astounded.
That is the most ridiculous straw man argument I’ve never heard
You live in a country you are invested in a country which is why leaving it is so difficult. You’re talking about just not buying a console, it’s the difference between altering a way of life that is being fine up until now versus not getting engaged in one in the first place.
I mean duh, I can make up any strawman I want and say “there’s a difference”.
No one said that you wanted to commit console genocide, just that your neighbors Xbox is none of your business and you really ought to take a chill pill and game how you please.

I’m about to blow your mind…
You get to decide.

lol “you get to decide not to buy the game!” is an argument just like “if you don’t like this political decision, just leave!” is an argument.
Technically yes, yet so dumb and shallow it won’t get your very far.
We’re talking video games here. Nothing else.
Oh thanks for informing me, I was under the impression this conversation was about the conflicts regarding taxes on tea exports.
Or perhaps the conversation was about videogames, but analogies can be used to explain flaws in arguments regardless of direct context.
Guess we will never know which option is true!

It’s completely different.
Then don’t buy a console? How does your neighbor Bob playing on his Xbox series s affect you at all?
Did I say I was about to destroy every single console in existence, beat up my neighbors or something?
Or did I just say I’d prefer a world without consoles to begin with?
There’s a difference, and it’s not a hard one to spot.
