    My PC game library goes back literally 30+ years. (I think the oldest game I play occasionally is Eye of the Beholder, 1991. The original doom is still good and from 1993)

    That has value.

      The Eye of the Beholder series really bring back childhood memories, even if i didn’t finish any of them - furthest i got was in EotB 2, and i after being stuck for a while in an area with those cultists i gave up. i didn’t even understand english back then lol

      This is an excellent point. The availability of games.

      On PC, you can play pretty much every game ever, with varying degrees of legality, whether directly, or indirectly using an emulator, with the only exception to this being very modern titles on consoles which do not have an emulator for PC yet, or that are still locked in a bullshit exclusivity deal.

      Meanwhile, PS/XBox is limited to whatever Sony/Microsoft deems appropriate to have on their console.

      On console you live and die by someone else’s rules, on PC, the sky is the limit.
