Being left behind. Consoles are the only gaming place where that does not happen. Except for stupid pro consoles.
And what would developers make games for? Console that came out now? Last year or 2 years ago?
I don’t want my console to age like my pc year on year.
Strength of consoles is that devs are able to create more and more impressive games on the same hardware.
Changing consoles into pc would ruin gaming. Make it more expensive, miserable and slow down games growth.
You are a fool to wish for consoles to become pcs.
The generational character of consoles has never been questioned, never, the PC comparison is therefore nonsense.
Pro consoles are just that, stronger versions of the current console gen, just like it has been with the last Pro models. So again: as long as there is nothing like "Pro exclusives" you have no argument.
And the "being left behind....not wanting to age" .....That's just you blaming the world for you lacking impulse control aka "FOMO".
As long as full compatibility of all games is a given none of the issues you describe actually exist outside your head.
So my question is still the same:
Who would actually force you to buy a pro console when all games run on all consoles?
