A lot of people locked down game platforms because they just want to have a seamless plug and play experience to play games without drivers, compatibility issues, or cheating. From the couch. On a 60” living room tv.
I certainly do, and so my gaming buddies. Every like 5-7 years or so we need to buy a new $400-$500 console. Seems like a good deal to me. We started back in the day on Xbox 360, now are on Xbox One, and sometime soon will migrate to Series X.
Non-microsoft peripherals in my gaming universe are used for one purpose - to cheat and to tilt the otherwise perfectly level playing field into cheaters favor. I don’t care for their existence.
There’s a ton of other options to play games where non-standard “enhancements” are allowed, along with wall hacks, map hacks, anti-recoil, trigger hacks, etc. You and Stallman can use those.
Hopefully they ban mouse and keyboard too.
I prefer “my ball” to officially stamped and pumped to the correct pressure.
