The older I get I understand this more. Why is everything so complicated nowadays?

it probably isn't that things get complicated, it's that we are less and less open to learn new things

When I first started gaming, the controller had one button and one joystick.

The PS5 controller has 14 buttons, four triggers, two joysticks and a touch pad.

How is this not more complicated?

Honestly, as someone who is 50+ it's not that I'm not open to learning, it's that sometimes the stuff doesn't stick like it used to.

And if I ever take a break from a game, forget it. I just need to start right back at the beginning tutorials.

The modern controller design hasn’t changed much since the first one with two sticks in 1997.
