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.

@disabled @beardalaxy funny enough it will be my desire to play decade+ old Bethesda games that will finally push me out of my comfort zone :blobcatpeek:

@RehnSturm256 @disabled it's like that meme where somebody spends $2,000 on a brand new computer just to emulate gamecube games lmao that was me for a little while xD

@beardalaxy @RehnSturm256 Now adays you can emulate gamecube games on a like few hundred dollar miniPC, which is actually cheaper than an actual gamecube and a physical copy of the best gamecube game ever made.

Not to mention, you don’t have to worry about the disk getting scratched over time or any of those other pesky failures present in the older hardware.

I say it’s worth it.

@disabled @beardalaxy Jesus, those prices :02_sweat: I hope Gacha Force really is good enough to sell my kidney for. :JahyDead: I’m trusting you on this Disa! :blobdoctor:

@RehnSturm256 @beardalaxy I played it more than any other game, probably in my entire life, honestly. I still play it to this day, absolutely love it.

@RehnSturm256 @beardalaxy I’ve even considered buying a physical copy just to have it. Though I ended up just buying a replica case, and i’m going to 3D print some accessories and maybe add a microSD card with the rom on it or something cool like that.

@disabled @beardalaxy yeah! make your own collectibles! Ive seen great projects like that :blobcataww:
