With the state of Physical media, the Switch 2/Xbox series X/Playstation 5 is likely my last console generation anyway.

If I am forced to go digital... I might as well stick with PC where the games are cheaper.

The next generation should be a bigger leap than what we got with the move from Xbox One > Xbox Series/Playstation 4 > Playstation 5.
* A.I upscaling.
* A.I Frame generation.
* Neural Texturing.
* Mega Geometry.
* Neural Materials.
* Neural Radiance Cache.
* Neural Texture Compression.

And more should be a big enabler.

I have been this way for a while now. I actually stopped gaming for a few years while in Uni, and now I just steam game. Pretty much everything is on steam except for a few exclusives and Nintendo games. And now with steam deck everything can be portable to some extent. Most laptops and desktops can play most of what's on steam.
