They're actively trying to suppress the outrage

I used to be a playstation, couch gamer. I pretty much quit gaming when the ps4 came out. Things have only gotten worse since. On the bright side, I did manage to get a bachelor degree instead.

There are plenty of posts in that sub complaining about the lack of physical discs. There’s even a megathread. My assumption is that this one got removed for being a duplicate or something similar considering that other similar threads are still alive and kicking.

I would have never thought I would not regret gaming so much when I was younger, with the current state of gaming.

So, it’s like Nintendo, but the console is twice as expensive? Yeah, no.

Sooo hot take I really don’t understand the extent of outrage about physical media. I don’t want physical media. It’s outdated. It feels like at this point we are just making up reasons to be angry, and millenials entering the “back in my day” age is feeding into this. Don’t get me wrong, I’m angry too, but I’m also a contrarian piece of shit and very pedantic about being angry for the right reasons. A used market is important for physical tech and all kinds of things to prevent waste and encourage re-use, but that doesn’t make sense for digital goods. I dunno am I way off base here?

It’s their walled garden, which they control and were they get to do whatever the fuck they want. Never, ever jump into a tech stack which is a walled garden, because sooner or later you’re almost certainly going to get shafted by those who control it. This applies just as much as a tech consumer as it does as a tech professional.

You know, it reminds me a lot of when Google got rid of “do no evil” in their mission statement.

So this is more about reddit mods than anything else. Yeah, reddit mods, for the most part, are complete dicks. Reddit sucks.

Grow a fucking pair and make a sacrifice for the world you want to see. Ppl are so fucking weak. Adjust your life to remove the liability of corporate greed, whenever possible.
