True, the different perception comes from two things: lower dev costs and no royalties allow more crappy games to exist and survive on PC (and in the same way on Android too) than on other platforms, while lower budgets and generally lower reatail prices give the highest quality games lower marketing budgets. But lower costs also allow high quality games to exist on PC even with lower sales than on consoles. In the end it's almost impossible that a platform with more than 100M gamers, be it a console or PC (that has a lot more gamers than the already large number of Steam ones), not receive high quality games besides the mass of lower quality ones.
