Luxury An inessential, desirable item which is expensive or difficult to obtain:luxuries like chocolate, scent, and fizzy wine. Gaming only is two of those, inessential and desirable. It is neither expensive or difficult to "obtain". Luxury isn't everything you don't need for survival. |
"Expensive" is case sensitive. Because you can afford to spend $400 on a console or even just a GPU doesn't mean half of the world can.
To OP, like most have said gaming is a luxury. And is nothing like a smartphone. Dedicated PCs and consoled are in my opinion luxuries. Yes, you can do more with a PC, but unless your PC is a workstation I do not or cannot justify how anyone can spend upwards of $1000 on GPUs or components simply to push a couple extra pixels or frames. Yup, luxury.
that's not a bad thing. Sex outside reprocreation is a luxury too :)
