Hard truths came out of 2024's Gamescom Asia regarding the future of console gaming and the concerns among console owners.

Honestly the Switch 2 is the only future console I have any excitement for.

Lol. 90 hours games. Fuck that shit. I’ve never been on board with that nonsense. Give me a decent 8 hour game and stop destroying the lives of your employees with never ending crunch.

It must be nice to be so rich you can afford so many 8 hour games though.

So you know that really neat trick, where you don’t buy the newest games and you can get most of them for a few bucks?

Well, I have kids. So that 8 hour game will last me a month. Combine that with a 20 year backlog…
