@OP:

I used to bash, and rightfully so, PS2 and XB1 when PC/consoles multiplats were dumbed down to please presumed (and never proven) shallower console gamers (and, in XB1 case, also due to its RAM being unexpectedly halved by MS compared to initial announced specs), but now I saw there are enough highly respectable developers that understood, if they didn't already know it, that a dumbed down game cannot almost ever become a good casual game, a game must be hardcore or casual or anything in-between since the first stages of its design, and since then built according to this choice to avoid becoming almost unavoidably crap.
And actually I am currently very happy of what the next 8th gen consoles will bring as an indirect benefit to PC gaming, a new gaming HW reference platform cheap, power frugal and at the same time powerful enough for entry-level gaming PCs. I always prefer to build cheap and power saving PCs, and thanks also to 8th gen consoles my next one will give me more computing power for a given price and power consumption than I expected.
So go consoles, long live and prosper!
