I agree that PC is better than console and that consoles are basically dead at this point, but I fucking hate the culture behind the "PC Master Race" with a passion.

Why? Because they are the most entitled, spoiled, rotten pieces of shit in the gaming community. They are like those fast-food customers who place the most ridiculous special orders, or the upper middle class to rich people who can only watch movies in a home theater set-up. They won't play a game unless they can play it on max settings with the most perfect frame-rate.

This is also one of the many factors that is preventing the "year of the Linux desktop". Even if they game already has a Linux port that is perfectly playable, I know a lot of people who out-right refuse to play on Linux because "the game runs better on Windows" (and by "better" they mean only a slight framerate increase). Let's see if that attitude still stands when Windows goes full SaaS and requires you to be micro-chipped in order to activate it.

I could go on. I also don't like their obsession with RGB lighting on everything and making their computers look like they were designed by aliens. How are you supposed to sleep at night if you are someone who keeps their computer in their bedroom?

I've been PC gaming since I started gaming, and I have always been perfectly content with a mid-ranged PC or even a toaster if I'm just sticking with indies and emulators. No RGB lights, no fancy keyboards or mice, no curved monitors. I really wouldn't have it any other way outside the inability to emulate 7th gen games.

@xianc78 It's called the mustard race because consoles need to ketchup.

Also, the reason PC is master race is specifically because you can run whatever the hell you want and get away with it. It's only because toasters can game that it can be superior.
By the same logic, games that allow you to play with people on other systems basically allow consoles to join the master race.
They still suck, but they don't suck in a way that matters to anybody else.

@Zergling_man @xianc78 if i use a computer, even a pretty low quality one, i get to keep my games and play them forever. Consoles mean u can stop getting the updates for them to work or they can get nuked for you cloud account whenever the maker decides you have to buy new games. Consoles are shitty versions of computers that do less functionally and are made to box people in and be nothing more than planned obscelecence in mere years. A 2000 conputer with a small upgrade to the graphics and processing will run anything new (and possibly some other small compoments like a wifi chip if needed or the such)

@Lyx @xianc78 @Zergling_man Backwards compatibility also gets better the more open the environment

Issues with old games aren't nearly as big if you can at least patch and recompile old libs

@applejack @xianc78 @Zergling_man i was thibking about my comment after posting ot im thinking aboit making a video about it but, for instance, ivw NEVER finished the greybeards storyline in skyrim because out of the at least 4 different playthroughs ive done, that specific quest has frozen EVERY time at different points. Thats cause ive always played it only on 360 if i had played it on pc i couldve reached out to the modding commumity i KNOW theyve patched it. And u can download all sorts of paid OR free mods that completely change the game from independent modders u cant even experience that on consoles they shit brick you

@Lyx @xianc78 @Zergling_man On PC this would usually just be fixed by going on the wiki and typing in a cmd into the console

@applejack @xianc78 @Zergling_man i forgot u czn do cknsole commands lol but thats another amazing benefit. Im comvimced i don want another console ever again unless its a retro piece. Consoles amd console companies ha e become something they havent always beem and become too toxic to spend money on tbh
