If you're referring to soccer moms still driving minivans, you're a few years behind the times. Nowadays, they drive fast 3-row SUVs and CUVs such as the Pilot and GMC Acadia.

It would have been a runaway winner if they loaded it with Odyssey-level features, even it pushes up the price to match the Odyssey.

I have been reading a lot about the suspension of Odyssey being rather unrefined. Just how bad is it?

Actually ride is okay, my dad and bro-in-law has the Odyssey. No complaints on the ride quality.
I've taken it to out of town trips with friends seated at the back, they were actually very comfortable.
My only complaint on the suspension is it's a bit noisy on bumps.

For the price, the Odyssey is a good buy. It's loaded with features, has enough space for a small family.

According to Kia PH's Grand Carnival brochure, the 3.3V6 variant has all the safety features mentioned above, and it seems like Doc BJ has no problem with fuel consumption either.

Though personally, I'm fine with the safety features the diesel has. Heck, the only safety features I require are brakes that bite, seatbelts and probably ABS and side impact beams. 😅

Different option is a good idea. Which can you offer?

If I had a good PC, I don't think I'd ever choose Xbox over PC.
But, the simplified combat system seems a better fit for consoles. I'm personally not a fan. Having played Chivalry, I felt like the combat was lacking a certain freeness and depth. And with Mordhau and Mount & Blade 2 coming out, I can't really justify buying the game.
You do you. It seems like a much more laid back game, so console's probably the better choice.
