10 players in the field of game consoles? I honestly believe that having 10 competing console platforms would make console gaming worse, just like everyone and their dog starting a streaming platform is much less convenient and much more expensive than just watching everything on Netflix was a few years ago.
- dehrmann 3y agoThe PC market gets you there on the hardware side. It's really messy to have 10 software platforms for games, though.
- Hamuko 3y agoYeah, people can barely handle having to install three game launchers on their PCs. Pretty much everyone I know would prefer to buy every single game on Steam, except those couple no-DRM fanatics that would prefer to buy every single game on GOG. Very few people are even superficially rooting for Epic Games Store.
- amelius 3y agoI didn't say we need 10 players, just that we should treat them as monopolies. E.g. properly recognize the market power of a platform owner, and not let them get away with any abuse.
