If my original PS5 died tomorrow i'd maybe consider paying a little extra for the boosted specs but honestly, i'm so underwhelmed by this gen's games and whats on the horizon that i'd have to strongly debate even replacing it at all at this point.

I have a PS4 Pro and I don't even know what was so pro about it. I think it was the first 4K PS console?

Definitely not getting a PS5 Pro, especially with it lacking a disc drive, fuck that.

Do you have PS Plus Premium? The new cloud streaming without using your own PS5 is huge.

94% of my playtime has been on Star Wars Battlefront II, with 116h. It’s been my top game every single month. It was also my top game on the Xbox, with 147h played.

I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

is the player base for this game just ruthless at this point? I could be nasty in the first one, but didn't play the second one enough to get the hang of the new maps and updated mechanics.
Obviously it’s quite competitive. Even in this large world, I often see the same names, as I only play supremacy 20 vs 20. Every week I get messages from various people trying to recruit me to a team. But I prefer just doing my own thing.

What was the fix?
My wifi at my house comes with a regular wifi plus a separate 5g one (i forgot it even existed).. we hook everything up to the non 5g one because it's faster n better.. I put the portal on the 5g one where it it's the only thing running on that wifi, it's not competing with anything else for signal
