but my couch is like the most important part.

I did plenty of PC gaming, with a pretty solid system. I did the research, basically, short version... console is where I landed. You can get plenty of great games on the cheap there, too -- okay yeah if you preorder the deluxe edition you're paying a premium, but don't though. Titanfall 2 is a steal at $22 right now, though it's been cheaper (and it's also a free week, so you can just play it) -- just one example. I did NOOOOOOOT pay $6k for my library of games, let's put it that way. Network subscription is a service and I ABSOLUTELY feel like I'm getting my money's worth out of it -- just to play with my brothers on PC, we'd have to run third-party chat in the background and ha-ha-ha if you wanted to rope anyone else into the chat ("We're on Discord." "Well we're on Mumble." "Plebs, get this other thing." "But we were using Gmail....." "Hey it's not working, is that your internet or the game server or the chat client? Fuck it, I'll just call you." "Woolooolooooooooo." "God damn it.") And then the game STILL didn't work like 10% of the time. AAA titles like Battlefield, early-access titles like fuck I can't remember but some capital-ship MOBA type thing.... it's a pain in the crotch.

With PC, the shit I pay for is shit I have to manage. With console, the shit I pay for includes somebody else whose only job is to make sure it works perfectly forever. I like that.
