I guess you’re right about the the games and their prices.

About the psplus, you clearly don’t need it to enjoy your PlayStation but it should also be accounted.

Still it’s around 70$ a year for the 7 years you would play on that console. So about 490$. But then you get some free games.

I guess if you calculate it that way it makes sense but then you also have to take into account the peace of mind that comes with gaming on a console. Every game works well, nothing to setup and your console is gonna get efforts from developers for about 7 years where an old PC is probably gonna have to be upgraded.

But I understand your point. Still it’s console gaming for me. I love tinkering with Linux, but I wanna be able to just play without any hassle.
