I've played notable games on X1 (exclusvie and console exclusive) but according to people like you those expereinces didn't happen. From a gameplay perspective, I still lean MS over Sony. As Sony is leaning heavy into narative in their games.

People show they're out of touch with the average consumer when they say, "I will build my own gaming PC." There is market for that, but most people just want to buy something pre built, reasonably priced, and easy to use. This is what PC lacks compared to consoles.

I agree MS should do more in the exclsuive department, but they already have notable content. Eitherway, its primarily 3rd party content that moves these consoles.

I wouldn't be quick to jump the gun and say that self-building PC users are an inconsequential demographic.

Companies like Razer, Corsair, Thermaltake, XFX, Coolermaster, Silverstone, Gigabyte, MSI, Asus, Acer and many many more have made a crap ton of cash from self building PC gamers.
AMD, nVidia and Intel recognize and take advantage of the sizable chunk of self-building PC gamers as well to help spurr upgrade cycles. Whilst the entire PC industry was in decline, self-building PC gamers were growing.

You're exagerating what I said to make an argument.

My statment stands, the average gamer is using pre built hardware whether it be a home console or portable device.

The building a PC market is niche in comparison while viable. Also depends on the country.
