    My reason for buying a PS5 is my Xbone bit the dust, and my Xbox 360 also had issues when I traded it in. My ps2 and ps1 still work. There was also the fact that the only available options were PS5 or Series S. I didn’t buy the console for exclusives, I bought it because it was the better available console and my previous one was dead.

      Ok? But your experience doesn’t change what the number one reason given is though? Sure, I don’t get Pixel phone anymore either because two in a row failed on me, but I don’t go around telling everyone “no one buys pixel phones because they die easily”

      But you made that decision knowing that Bethesda games were going to be exclusive to the MS ecosystem.

        No I didn’t. The announcement of their intentions to fully absorb Bethesda didn’t even come out until around the PS5’s release, and wasn’t completed until like 6 months after. Not everyone pays close attention to gaming news. And if you bought the console early on, there is a chance you never would have even heard about it, let alone completely understood the implications of the purchase.
