Sure. As a PC gamer, you can choose to pour time and money into handbuilding a rig with more power but surveys have shown that the majority of Steam users have weaker PC's than PS4. According to you, is that also because they can't afford an expensive rig? Or could it simply be because people have loads of fun on their console/weaker PC and don't see the need to buy new hardware to make it look prettier?
For me personally, your claim could not be further from the truth. I have an old (but gold) PC rig but I'm busy with life and I find myself more often than not choosing to play on one of my consoles when I want to relaxe for a few hours. I'm up and running in seconds. That has nothing to do with not being able to afford an expensive PC rig. My income is high.
Besides, I remember reading somewhere that the total spending between console and PC gamers is pretty close because the average console gamer spends more money on games and less on hardware whereas the average PC gamer spends less money on games and more on hardware. And maybe that's a good thing as games like The Witcher 3 wouldn't exist without the high income from consoles.
