Glad i am one of those PC Gamers. Best thing i did lately for myself was upgrading my PC and TV to put out 4k. Games just look incredibly clear and sharp. Especially with HDR.
Its an expensive investment but like most gens, it becomes a norm and people start to think how they lived with out it.

720p was a norm at one stage than when every one moved to 1080p, everyone disliked 720p. Same thing for 1080p to 4k.

This survey and peoples enjoyment of the standard X1 and the Switch suggest that far from everyone has moved to 1080p just yet.

30%+ of the surveyed users are sub 1080p

I see the Switch is an exception to the rule as its also considered a portable device and gamers are happy to accept 720p for that system. However if X1 or PS4 achieved 720p it causes a huge up roar that gamers go crazy because of pixels. However its quite fair to say going from 720p to 1080p, its hard to go back, and same with going from 1080p to 4k, its the same thing. I am now use to 4k that when I lower the resolution to 1080p I instantly notice the clarity change. Everyone will have a different opinion on it as some gamers simply just don't care. I played Zelda BOTW on my 4k TV at 900p and considering how good that game is, I ignored the Pixels.. but in saying that I definitely notice the lower resolution, it did stick out like a sore thumb.

Its like upgrading your eye Glasses, once you get a new pair, using the old pair becomes noticeable and starts to strain your eyes. Especially when you are use to wearing the new pair.
