I get people preferring one platform over another. What I don't understand is platform loyalty/tribalism. It makes no sense. Just enjoy your games!

I honestly don’t know which is stupider, console wars or iPhone vs Android. Like. Use whatever you like to get your dopamine rush.

I especially can’t wrap my brain around being so loyal to your console that you’d try to get someone fired for playing a game on the other console. If you are at that point, you need to go outside for serious. Go for a nice hike in the woods or something.

If you meant iPhone vs. Android... there are actual arguments to support Android if you want a system you can take control of.

In this case I can understand some frustration if you have a PlayStation and can't play Starfield but would like to. But not to this degree. Just, like... post your disdain for the exclusivity online.
