Smaller marketshare,
Pretty sure they’d release mobiile > console > PC if they could get away with it.
The PC release will be a year or so after to get people to double dip.

Mechabellum.
Very easy to pick up auto-battler. Short matches, but quite a lot of tactical depth.
I know there have been multiple patches that fixed bugs and gameplay
Yep, it’s been fixed. And it’s awesome. Well worth playing
I’m a 47 year old guy and I’m not ashamed to say that I enjoy video games. I always have, from playing Head over Heels on a Speccy +2 to ESO and Valorant on my self built PC.
I’m 51. I have house, wife, two kids and I run my own company. I could never, ever think about stop gaming. I’ve been doing this since the 80s. It’s my hobby and my way to socialize and wind-down. It is my go-to when I need to get my mind off things. I’d be a literal wreck without it. I’m not ashamed of it and I will talk about it with anyone curious. Just like they might talk about sailing boats or golf trips. No difference.
Due to various life circumstances, I’m also on the dating scene and to most women I meet, around my age, video games are anathema. When I say that I like them it’s usually meet with an “oh dear” or a “my son would probably love to talk to you about them, I find them really boring”
That is a really shitty and demeaning way to speak to someone. What the actual fuck? Very rude.
Have you ever tried to tell them that insulting someones hobbies isn’t the best way to go about meeting people?
Will this cost us Half-Life 3?
I’m 50+ and while my kids are old though to manage without me, I still have plenty of other responsibilities.
I don’t really “track” my gaming and I think the focus on hours spent is a bit silly.
I play when I have time to relax.
It’s mostly WoW, single-player RPGs, Paradox Grand Strategy games, online chess etc - stuff that doesn’t need twichy coordination, too old for that.
Mechabellum has been my latest addiction
I think you might like it. It is turn based (but also, fast - just not in the twichy way)
@kentucky444 Thanks, I’ve followed some TFT streams, but for some reason it’s never really caught me quite like this. It’s great though!
There’s thousand different stats around this, but generally most analysts place consoles slightly ahead of PC with stronger growth potential, but it depends a bit where in the generation cycle they do their measurements.
Most of this has been overshadowed by mobile gaming though.
