Yes, but with consoles, those topics collide with one another. With PC, sales isn't ever even a discussion.

Sales are a topic of discussion whenever there isn't much news, I've seen PC sales topics from non PC folk when they look at Steam spy and the same for those that are PC gamers, hell the recent XCOM

thread has me and another poster actually posting sales data, two topics in one thread at once.

Schrödinger's cat is based on something existing in two different states at the same time until you measure it... In this case, you are talking about two different things (amount of PC gamers and the PC community itself), so it's not in any way like Schrödinger's cat, because you aren't talking about the same thing existing yet not existing, you are talking about one thing existing (a substantial amount of PC gamers on the forum), but a completely different thing not existing (a substantial amount of PC focused discussion on the forum). Not schrödinger's cat.

YOu are saying PC gamers exist in big numbers on here and yet I'm not seeing any in terms of PC centric activity, it's like you are telling me something is right in front of me but I;m literally not seeing anhytyhing, no noise or movement.

End of the day I see little PC discussion despite there apparently being *lots* of PC gamers on here. If it;s going to go back and forth like this (between two people now) then I'll just disagree heavily, I'm sorry but I just don't see it your way at all.

Yeah, lots of PC gamers doesn't equate to there being lots of PC centric activity. Like I just explained though, that has nothing to do with the principle behind Schrödinger's cat (and frankly, thought experiments to explain quantum mechanics really have no place in a discussion like this...). Furthermore, what even counts as "PC centric activity"? Has it occured to you that much of the "PC" activity occurs in "multiplat" threads about multiplat games like Fallout 4, The Witcher 3, GTA, Metal Gear Solid, etc?

 

I'm not sure what you are disagreeing with me on. Are you disagreeing that these PC gamers exist? Because I can prove that they do, pretty irrefutably.
