I stopped playing on consoles several years ago. They don’t appeal to me anymore. What is it that people dislike about Xbox series s/x?

I have neither version of the Series, but from what I've read

1. Lack of compelling first-party software

2. Lack of compelling third-party exclusives, even if they're console exclusive but on PC

3. Series S is a bottleneck. There's criticism for Xbox requiring games to run on Series S and Series X. While Series S is better than One X in most ways on paper and actual performance, One X has 2 GB more RAM (but GDDR5 instead of GDDR6 like Series S) and supports higher resolutions on average. Admittedly, it has less 60 FPS support than Series S.

That makes sense. I feel that way about all consoles, except for point 3. There’s nothing compelling that isn’t on PC or at least can’t be emulated.

I don’t really keep up like I used to, but it sounds like Sony still has more exclusives. If I had more time, I’d maybe try them out. 

Too bad about the bottleneck. I actually appreciate the low tier option. Consoles are so expensive and they don’t give a lot of return for the high end cost.
