that's why I just kinda hate getting games on consoles nowadays (excluding something like the steam deck since it's just a handheld PC). I always feel so locked in. sucks that there's some cool exclusives on consoles tho like the new spiderman on playstation

Yeah, and I feel like that's only going to get worse as time goes on as more and more big studios get bought up by console manufacturers. Seeing Bungie and Bethesda and Activision/Blizzard all getting bought up has me worried about exclusivity contracts fracturing what was fairly recently a thriving console market.

The latest Spider-Man game is on steam and the one before that. Spider-man 3 will likely be on Steam in 2 years but the wait does kind of suck.

And Ratchet and Clank is now releasing for PC

But we usually get an optimized GOTY edition, so kinda worth.
