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 Only thing keeping people from giving up on consoles is the fact the simple fact that consoles are still a third or fourth of the cost of a pc, which keeps needing new parts to play newer games released in a few years.

Only reason I have a ps5 is because I waited, bought one for $370, sold the old ps4 for $120, so it cost me only $250. Ill take that over a pc that cost over $1000
@PurpCat @xianc78 @BigDawg869789 Nigga, who ASKED for you to put all this BULLSHIT in there and fuck with everyone's ability to play your fucking dogshit ass game, anyway? The 20 fucking perverts who lock them selves in their goon cave to learn to bing bing wahoo in fuckdickshootsmcfartwaffle2k24 0.01ms faster that every other person on earth? That's your fucking market for competitive games. It's not the NFL, no one cares if it's not rigged (bad example but I digress). Make a good-faith effort to tamp down on cheating and then fucking quit. Don't make an inferior product in the pursuit of the literal most impossible windmill to ever be tilted at: computer security. You can't win, no one can, and especially not the fucking retards that work at AAA sloppa COD factories.

Jesus fuck die already.

@PurpCat @pwm @BigDawg869789 At least some Falcom devs from the 80s and 90s also worked at retail, but that's because they were also a computer shop at one time.
