This is my very first YouTube video! 😊

I can’t wait for the Pro! But many ask, What’s the point? I try to answer this question and discuss how it will benefit the entire gaming industry even if most people don’t buy one.

    Be nice, Lemmy. We need more original content and discussions in our communities. If you are downvoting, you should at least say why.

    As for the video, I thought it was pretty good actually, especially for a first YouTube video. I liked your transitions and editing. You also predicted some of the complaints and addressed them in the video, although I’m guessing some people down voted without watching all of it. I hope you don’t let the down votes discourage you, and you keep it up.

    Anyway, my personal opinion on the discussion topic itself is that it feels like I just got a PS5 and the games targeted for it still feel lacking, so I get people’s complaints there. I think that’s largely because the pandemic made time weird, plus the logistical issues that entailed. But, it’s not like they stopped releasing games for the PS4 when the PS4 Pro came out. Hell, they’re still releasing games for the PS4. It doesn’t negate the desire for the PS5 Pro some people might have, and I don’t think it would cause them to stop targeting the PS5 with new games, either.

    And I totally get the annoying trade off between quality and performance that would be nice to not have to make, or at least not have the difference be so drastic. I want a closer experience to my PC from my couch and with my big, expensive TV that my partner can watch with me, without having to move my PC and mess with switching around a bunch of power and HDMI cords. It would take me a long time to want to pay for that experience, but I wouldn’t begrudge others for wanting to, especially since I don’t think it would harm my experience at all.

      Thanks. I’m still learning how to make and edit videos.

      I was fortunate enough to get a PS5 in early 2021 (at retail price). So I’ve had it for over 3 years now. But it’s just now gotten easy to find them in the past year, so I get how it feels like it just came out to some. It’s been great to play my PS4 gamea on it with Boost Mode enhancements. But as UE5 games and others using more modern engines finally have started to come out, it’s just became pretty clear to me the base model is just not quite powerful enough to keep up with where gaming is headed over the next 5 years. I’m ready for an upgrade
