It’s so funny how they want to get rid of physical, push for an all digital future, and then ultimately an all streaming future, so that this will be the model they can implement.

Everyone saying they dump 100s of hours into games… you really think they’re not reading that too and trying to figure out how they can monetize each minute?

Waiting for the message that I have to pay a subscription to even use my console.

I have something more outlandish, but I don't know how I should write down something like this. Having to earn tokens through a pyramide/cult scheme by recruting other people so that I'm allowed to use it.
