Depends. Do you want to be on the cutting edge of tech? Do you want to be able to upgrade your box rather than just throwing it out every few years? Do you want to be able to easily repair and service your box? Are you ok with a slightly higher upfront cost in exchange for cheaper games and free online? Do you want to be able to use your box for other multimedia and workstation tasks? Do you want to use any controller you want with no extra hardware? Do you want to have a second monitor you can have discord or youtube on? The choice is yours.
 
Convenience is always the biggest positive for going consoles. Personally? I go PC. I don't just game, and there's something about being able to run a huge chunk of games at 4k/120 without issue or compromise. The Series X is a great console, if you can get your hands on it. PS5 is fine too... I guess. :ha:

This generation really narrowed the gap between the two hardware types.

choosing both makes me sad
I lean towards suggesting console gaming then. This is my personal opinion, but I think PC gaming is far more expensive than console gaming. PC gaming has a far more expensive start up process compared to console gaming.

PC for the flexibility really, not fussed about who has the best graphics.

Can pretty much use whatever controller/control setup I want.
Backwards compatibility going back near enough forever.
Settings on games. Up to you whether you want the shiny graphics or lower to chase high fps. Consoles are getting better here, but it's still mostly a preset quality or fps setting. PC, don't like crap like motion blur, lens flare or chromatic aberration off it goes. Same for multiplayer, distracting settings/things that impact visiblity, off they go. Awful colour filters like the blue one that was on older Battlefield games, reshade can sort it.
Mods.

As long as console are a closed setup, where for the most part you get what you are given, then they won't be my main platform.
