       There's a generation of gamers who missed out on the magic game rentals, going to blockbuster after school on Friday and renting it for a few days. There's so many amazing games I got to play from this model yeah game pass exists now but that's not the sameWith the fall of game stores and console manufacturers pushing for digital only, there will be a generation soon who completely misses out on the magic of the bargain bin, finding that gem at the end of a console gen that nobody knows exists

       @BrodieOnLinux People still happily pay for itCapitalism learned that and is going to keep doing it. As long as people consume, they have no reason to give us ownership back

       @BrodieOnLinux Just browsing the store was so cool. People forget there were lots of systems so you could also browse what else was out there. Totally different world.

       @trafotin That's neat, but libraries in a lot of places are becoming less popular in general
