Possibly Huawei if you’re not in the US. Sony open backs? Or maybe just some xiaomi model, but I can’t vouch for sound there.

I’m in the same boat and use the regular airpods 2. The 3rd gen would be ideal too unless Huawei entices me to switch over.

I’m doing it on a ln i3 6th gen SFF PC. It’s holding up quite well for many other things as well. A pi could suffice, but maybe for a single user at a time.

Let’s put it this way. Split screen was a mostly console exclusive feature before some genius decided to kill it off. Locking multiplayer behind a pay wall at some point was also the stupidest idea I’ve ever seen.

Most new titles for consoles are exactly as enjoyable on PC. The experience is almost identical. Companies prefer it this way too.

They can make a nice exclusive and release it for PC 2 years later to reap double the profit.

The above has me thinking that consoles are becoming a niche. I’d just get a steam deck for portable gaming and a play pass for the exclusives not yet available on PC.

I salute your efforts. Mainly because I stand to benefit :D.

I finally tried Death Stranding a couple of days ago. I’m still on it. The visuals and storytelling are quite compelling.

I do understand why it’s not for most people, though. You do put a lot of effort into walking, but honestly, I’ve played harder games for less, so it’s quite alright for me.

You do eventually get better accessories and become faster.

Ratchet And Clank: Rift Apart is also an amazing game. Rather relaxing to play. The visuals and story are also quite nice.

Hmm, this is an interesting one.

I rarely play alone anymore. Which makes it even more difficult as you get older. It’s hard to match up with other people when life keeps them equally busy.

I’ve also noticed that I want a new experience from my games, kind of like searching for that new movie. Games rich in their story and yet not that distracted in side quests seem to keep me going. God of War was ideal, Horizon too. Baldurs Gate 3 had me for a while, but most online titles suck the time out of me at almost no return.
