I have Steam I should probably join the PC master race? It has all the Sega games, no online paywall to shock me in surprise. all the Microsoft/Sony first party games . Steam games cost way lesser than console games like eshop/Microsoft store/PSN

I was just about to say join us on PC where the only thing you'll ever have to spend money on is the PC and games. Plus, if there's any Sega games that aren't on Steam or GOG, there's always emulators. This would actually be good timing too as graphics card prices are finally plummeting.

Sorry to hear about your situation though. That was one of the reasons why I switched to PC gaming back in the 360 days. I hope you're able to recover!

Reiterate

for fucks sake add crossplay in fighting games while I'm on PC I don't have to quad dip on the same fucking game sigh, seriously? Tekken 7 PC/Ps4/Xbox no other genre does this except fighting games where theres no crossplay. maybe shooting games also don't have crossplay neither? Each tekken 7 digital copy is $60 since launch that's $180 because namco won't add crossplay.

Yeah, idk why fighting games don't have crossplay. Maybe Street Fighter 6 will since Capcom is devoting just as much resources to PC now as on console. Nearly all shooting games do have crossplay though nowadays. 

Tekken 7 is on sale for $30 on Steam for the Originals Edition and $35 for the Definitive Edition. Regular price for that apparently is $110. I know buying games is probably the last thing you're worried about, but games do go on sale very often and the Steam Summer Sale is about to happen in a little over a month where nearly every game on Steam has some sort of sale.

Street fighter 5 has crossplay since day 1 so no doubt street fighter 6 will have crossplay too. Most third parties fighting games have crossplay I think only tekken and dead or alive don't have crossplay

Pay for online has always been BS. But gamers embraced it without thinking twice. So here we are. Prices will only go up. I rarely pay for it. Basically I buy a year subscription when a souls games comes out, then I stop until the next one.

You have one option. Sell all your video games and systems, then buy an xbox series s with gamepass.

That is a problem with subs, it is done in a way that makes renewal automatic and just forget about it and even when you try to change sometimes it don't work.

How does that remove the need to pay for online and subs?

And how would expect someone that buys the three consoles and its game to be fully covered with only Series S and GP?

Yes, just get a steam deck, I can absolutely recommend it. It feels pretty much like a console but comes without all that online subscription bullshit, all the emulators you want and more hentai games than you could ever play in your entire life. What's not to like?
