Literally barely any games that can't be played on ps4 or Xbox one.

This ps5 almost feels like a waste of 500 bucks

My theory is that there was no reason to make a new generation of consoles, we have reached diminishing returns. People only need their games to look good enough and be big enough and run fast enough, the new generation just doesn't matter anymore.

Then again my primary form of gaming is ascii graphics so...

Only real leap I see this time is load times and maybe the frame rate is a bit better in some games.

Yeah the only thing that really impressed me about my ps5 was the load times truly are impressive for someone who never had a gaming pc with an ssd before

Well, that and Horizon: FW did look real pretty
