    Sure, though you don’t need a state of the art PC to play 90% of the games ever made. These days I play a lot of my games on an old 3DS (hacked to the gills)!

    I also have a huge steam library of games, many of which I bought for next to nothing in huge bundles during past sales. Many of them I still haven’t played! They would run fine on a 10 year old PC though.

        The AAA game industry wants to leverage FOMO to keep you engaged, keep you buying the newest game, forgetting about your backlog.

        If they had their way, older games would no longer be playable, just to force people to keep buying new games.
