Something else I haven't seen mentioned in the comments yet is the rapid pace of AAA title acquisitions by players. I never played as many games as my "gamer" friends, but over the last several years the pace that people pick up and put down games is staggering. Most of my friends will have acquired, played and stopped playing 4-6 games in the time it takes me to get to the oldest one in the current cycle (at which point there are no friends left who are willing to play with.)
- sandspar 2y agoMicrosoft at least is heading towards a "Netflix for games" streaming model, which gives players very low switching costs between games in the Xbox GamePass market. I pay ~$20 per month and have rental access to a group of AAA games that would cost $1,000's to purchase.
