More people that get to play it the better. I really don't get the hate for PC gaming on this website... PC honestly seems like the best choice this gen to be honest. And this is coming from a strict console gamer.

My gues is some folk on this site hate the platform and see it as a direct thread to their self esteem and purchase decision, the alst thing they want is to see someone else having a good experience on a different platform than theirs, especially if we go by this gen and the stupid wars that are waged, this is why I jumped ship to PC gaming back in late 2012/early 2013 to have PC as my main and grab a console as my secondary along with a handheld. This site will probably remain hostile towards the platform for a good number of years though, at least until the spiteful folk have been purged.



Nobody actually hates PC gaming. What they hate are PC gaming fanboys, which are basically identical to console fanboys except instead of hiding their insecurity via consoles wars, they do so via elitism through a massive superiority complex. And its really, just an extension of it.

What is particularly baffling is that from a gaming standpoint PC gamers have little to be insecure about, and those that don't give a shit, are too busy playing games to talk about how there custom gaming rig is over powering a mass produced 400$ console. as though that is some kind of achievement. Or saying oh, why don't you get a PC instead of getting an underpowered console, again not so veiled PC elitism. Ignoring the fact that getting a gaming rig isn't apt for everyone.

From the start of the generation, Mid-tier Gaming Rigs exceeded the power of the current gen, and yet there are still some that don't think that everybody who is a gamer doesn't already know the advantages of PC over console.

Seriously, nobody cares.

At the very least, recognize that even though the PC is not a console, and arguably superior to that of consoles in that of potential, that doesn't mean that PC gamers are any different than console gamers.

PC Master Race was always a joke but some people take it too seriously, the same people who need to bolster their self esteem and validate their purchase decisions.
