You can't speak for every PC gamer, mate. Generalizations are bad, especially when you can't back them up with facts. Sony's teams have already done enough research to know that there is a market for ps4pro that includes people who buy a console and are not happy after a few years and consider getting a pc. The minority that buys the cutting edge technology obviously doesn't care about that. Millions of others potentially do.

I think you guys are picking him up wrong.

What his saying is the is other reasons people get pc's then "just graphics", Otherwise we wouldnt have Low/Mid/High/Ultra range systems.

But people that really want to game on a PC will get a PC anyways. I believe this is what his saying.

For instance a person might choose a 500 euro PC over a PS4Pro since they might want proper mod support. Maybe they like Emulation?.

Maybe they want to do some video editing or music editing?, maybe they want to try out some of the PC exclusive games such as WoW, Dota, Proper Minecraft etc.

So you see i dont think he is saying that a PC user "wouldnt" buy a console. Just that if someone plans on really buying a PC PS4Pro is not really going to change that.

"PC gamers will always opt for a PC for a number of reasons"

My problem is with this statement. Yes, some will only game on PC for the reasons that you just mentioned, but not all of them. You can't speak for every single person who games on pc. For some people it is simple as "I'll play exclusives on my console and multiplats on pc, as with 500 pounds, which I am willing to spend, I can get a better experience on pc". For those people, ps4pro is a good option. For others who want mods and everything else, obviously not. Sony is just giving them one less reason to switch to pc.
