That’s an amazing prompt. 😂

We’re not talking about you (1 consumer). You’re reading too much into this and you’re missing (or purposely ignoring) the general economics of purchasing a console versus a computer.

Why are you upset by this statement?

I don’t think you want that. The availability of consoles at different price points (all lower than a typical PC setup) lowers the barrier to entry for games and makes it viable for new games to be developed. Eliminating consoles would have severe implications to the industry.

I think the only response to this is for us all to remember that businesses are not our friends.

Spencer can talk the talk about wanting games to be everywhere for anyone to play them but his words are meaningless if Microsoft published titles are getting caught up in PC and Xbox exclusivity arrangements.

Sony can say what it wants about the dangers of Microsoft making games like CoD exclusive, but to this day they’re doing work behind the scenes to keep major titles like FFXVI to themselves for as long as possible.

Business gonna business.

I don’t think anyone driving a Tesla owes anyone an excuse. I’ve been driving one for a few years and one of the first things I did after purchasing one was block Elon on Twitter.

You don’t have to respect a business or the people that run it to buy and enjoy what they’re selling.

There are a lot of bad drivers out there. We all see them every day and it doesn’t matter what make or model vehicle they’re driving.

I can also say that your interpretation of who is driving these vehicles is a wild generalization. Claiming that Teslas are being driven by ‘overpaid office guys’ is a stretch, and I don’t think you understand how much a Tesla costs relative to any other vehicle of the same year out there.

I think the industry will be fine. The Big 3 have moved to (at least mostly) recorded events which - for now - outweighs any need for them to attend an in-person event. Industry members are using Summer Games Fest and other industry events like PAX to connect and give the public opportunities to play games.
