My preferences? Feel bad for people who only game on console and who are obsessed with JRPGs (they were far better back in the day, give it up). Play my sports (only fifa these days), CoD (bo3 will be far better than Battlefront), some exclusives on xbox one, then play Dota2 and CS:GO on PC when I want to be competitive, which is all the time.

I have a slight addiction to Dota2, at 4k MMR. Getting better at it is addicting and increasing MMY to 4500 then 5000 is the dream.
I don't see myself quitting Dota2 anytime soon. 2-3 games a day is average for me and my life schedule is affected by it constantly. Valve has me by the strings with that game.

Even if we assumed the bolded was inherently correct on a general scale, it would still be a pretty silly thing to say (at least in the way you said it). Your opinion has as little bearing on the validity of someone else's as their's does on yours. If they like JPRGs, or think they've gotten better, then to them as an individual (or group if there are several of them) that opinion is valid. You, as another individual, really can't say otherwise.

The whole sentence, including the "feel bad for people who only game on console" part, is rather silly.  Suppose someone were to only play RPGs on consoles, yet they had an absolute blast doing so and were prefectly happy with that arrangement?  Would feeling sorry for them make any sense at all?  The only way that has any real meaning is if the people in question were not content while refusing to try anything different.
