It generally doesn’t look good for consoles except for Nintendo.

We need a second Gollum game.
The nerfs killed it for me. I’m taking a break. I think Arrowhead needs to focus on fixing some bugs and making the weapons we already have fun.
I still dont understand why we need bluesky.
Just reading Chomsky, then Graeber. There is actually no great injustices in my personal life. I dont have any reason to complain.
I think for grandma Linux is actually easy. You can easily make it look like Windows or Mac or something recognisable with big friendly icons. And lock it down, so she can’t mess anything up. The only difficulty part is if you need something very specific that only works on Windows. But for gaming, browsing and Office, most things works absolutely fine on Linux. Valve has made it incredibly easy to install Steam games on Linux, even if they officially only work on Windows.
Most Linux apps can be installed from an App Store, that works like it does on phones. It’s a bit different, but it’s not harder. The exception is some multiplayer games that require some aggressive anti cheat, that won’t work. It’s also easier if you have an AMD GPU as it will just work on Linux, nvidia is making it a bit difficult, but that’s nvidia fault for not playing nice.
Installing something like Pop Linux doesn’t take more than 20 minutes.
I wish more people would create worker owned cooperatives. They might be more resilient and might even be more productive. Of cause the downside is that they don’t make one person very rich.
I don’t think it’s required for single player games.
When was the last time EA had an idea that made things better for the customers.. you know like how companies are supposed to work. Customers pay and in exchange they get something that makes their lives a little better. But it’s always just about extracting value and giving as little as possible back.
“Here take the same reskinned soccer game, now a little bit more expensive, with ads and new bugs, and some micro transactions, because you should pay us more, because fuck you”
Why do people keep letting Microsoft be in control. Stop buying Xbox and Gamepass. Stop using Windows. Don’t use Microsoft Office. That’s it. Microsoft is no longer a part of your life and you can forget they exist.
I don’t think this can be solved with any type of technology. It needs legislation. These AI companies need regulation.
SteamDeck is just a PC. But in a form factor that appeal to gamers that would usually buy console.
