True. But that doesn't explain why so many people can't GRASP what reality is outside of their own bubble. I say things all the time on here that get panned to hell and back simply because I'm echoing the average consumers wishes/thoughts etc. It's almost like a rule that you can not ackowledge reality because it's not welcome and they don't want to deal with it. |
because a large percentage of gamers that frequent a site like this are extremely blinkered in their views, they don't come here to hear different opinions or reality, they come here to find confirmation of their bias that System X or Y is the best or that game X or Y sucks/rocks. It is in some way the same reason that Fake News in recent years has become so successful, people prefer to hear confirmation of their beliefs even if those beliefs don't reflect reality. People that play some highly popular, consumer focused games are generally not going to give a crap about reading how much said system Sold or what is the next best thing and hence they are not going to be overly represented here. The reality is also while PC gamers are by far the largest gaming community they would be one of the smallest on sites like this as they really live on different forums (hell even the OP seems to have a bizzare twist on reality in thinking PC gaming is only 10% with Sony somehow being 50%) . Nintendo and Sony also have a large dedicated following from historical relationships.
