| 0815user said: things like the extra waiting time for pc releases of gta 5 or ffxv for example or an increasing number of subpar pc optimizations for new games could make one feel left out, don't you agree? overall, the majority of aaa game devs prefere consoles because it's easier for them to build games for one set of hardware then the countless custom hardware combinations that pc is, so it's only reasonable for them to prioritize console games over pc releases. |
Depends really. everything takes time, like how everyone waited 10 years for FXV, while the PC release is looking at another year wait, GTA V only took around 2 years and was a stellar port for all and came out on top in terms of visuals from the other versions. THe number of "subpar" ports are in few number compared to the rest out there that work really well.
I wouldn't say the majority of AAA devs rpefer consoles, especially not going by a recent listing of what devs want to program for: https://www.destructoid.com/developer-survey-shows-pc-development-interest-on-top-switch-on-bottom-426092.phtml
Also one set of ahrdware?, I don't think so, not with the Wii U, X1, PS4, PS4Pro, Scoprio and Switch let alone 3DS, making it multiple different sets of ahrdware to program for already, which hasn't made it "super simple" for all devs at all.
it's not reasonable either to forgo PC in favor of consoles, but that's what you want to believe.
Again I'm going to assume you are calling those that choose investing into a PC as "losers" despite the advantages and changes that have come to the platform over the years.
Mankind, in its arrogance and self-delusion, must believe they are the mirrors to God in both their image and their power. If something shatters that mirror, then it must be totally destroyed.
