Is Xbox one worth getting in 2024 :Thinkeyes:

Edit: no, it’s not. It’s not even going to offer what I wanted in the first place :catstare: being a “better upgrade” from one shitty system to another doesn’t make it good.

@riserise I guess alternatively, in a roundabout way, I’m asking “how much would I need for a PC to play Skyrim content mods”. I saw price ranges in the $800-1300 range and shat myself IN. REAL. TIME. JK, but seriously, PC gaming has always seemed like a rich man’s hobby.

@RehnSturm256 @riserise it's because you're meant to get a gaming pc as a way to do multiple things with it. It doesn't JUST game, you can do a lot more and you theoretically have a lot more freedom with the games. If you're playing online, that extra $300 will make itself up within a few years anyway too.

@beardalaxy just found out the things I wanted to try aren’t even covered by le console in full. :02awoo: PC upgrade it is.

@RehnSturm256 yup yup, sometimes you gotta bite the bullet. But it'll pay off. Especially if you're trying to do Skyrim mods, I'd say like half the mods out there especially more extensive ones need stuff like SKSE that isn't supported on console.

If you HAD to get a console I'd recommend a Series S but it's not *really* worth it unless you're seriously strapped for cash and can't wait a little bit to save up some funds. Or for those that don't want to deal with computer downsides (shader cache stutter in modern games, more troubleshooting, etc).
