They all suck though. I've already gotten rid of my PS4, and I'm not thrilled with Microsoft either. I get stuff there because it doesn't have DRM. The next choice is piracy.
I got rid of a ton of gaming stuff the last few months. PS4 had been made redundant and honestly was a huge disappointment well prior to me being mad at their woke. Everything was so meh about the first party games. I played a lot of them all the way through too, and I started thinking I'd never want to replay those again because they were not interesting. When the Yakuza series moved to Xbox and a lot of the new stuff seemed even worse the PS4 became very redundant. Funny enough I sold it for almost exactly what I paid for it new, market is stupid on those things.
I still have my Xbox One X, I'll still consider upgrading it too but they haven't made any games there enough for me to want to buy. Kept my PS3 too, lot of stuff on there I'd actually want to play again and even if I buy games they are secondhand. Might even try Gran Turismo for some reason never played one of those on there. Got rid of all kinds of older stuff I had gathered up, probably for a profit everyone is overpaying for "retro" stuff and I really wanted to downsize.
It wasn't necessarily difficulty that ran me off. I'm not one to necessarily need a hard game. Although I would say their difficulty curve was usually sort of challenging at the beginning until you're about 20% in and have learned the gameplay and have some upgrades. At which point it's totally trivial.
They just lost their variety to me. All third person action/adventure with mildly different ways of attacking like some being more ranged and others melee. Typically always a stealth section or two. I've played all the old God of War games at least twice each I think, have no interest in replaying the new one and it was my favorite exclusive game on the machine.

GoG is no DRM and piracy is simple and easy on PC. Don't pay for shit.
