I never said "small or insignificant" I said smaller than consoles. 

$35b is definetly a lot. But like the graphs showed over half of that is free to play and/or e sports titles. If we are talking big budget AAA games each individual console sells more than pc. Maybe not switch. 

Not dissing Asia either (goverment sucks though). Just saying that they are way more inclined into free to play and/e sports. Over half of pc gaming is asia and 80-90% of that is thouse types of games. Just saying devs take that into account. They don't just see that $35B. 

Correct. You did say "small compared to consoles". - But it's still a big market and consoles aren't multiples larger.

Call of Duty Warzone is free to play... And that is dominating paid AAA titles. (Because maybe it is AAA?)
Just because it's Free to play doesn't mean it isn't AAA. That is highly disingenuous.

No developer looks at the 47.9~ billion dollar console market and says "That is all mine" either. - Especially if they don't release on all major platforms. (Which happens more often than not... Poor Switch.)

Call of duty warzone is one of the exceptiins that proves the rule. And you definitely know that.

Never claimed that the $47.9b is all AAA. I honestly dint look at the split for it. Just said at least half of the pcs $35b could be dismissed. I can't even pull numbers acurately because digital is hard to track. But what is being reported almost every time is for multiplatform releases the pc version tends to be behind each individual console. But like I said ..could be wrong as digital sales makes the bulk of pc and its harder to track. But judging at the revenue split I would say the numbers are correct.

And like I said to chazore. It's not that I'm craping of pc. Its just that the numbers explain why devs dont focused to much on high end pcs and gamers feel that its bad ports and what not. Just lower number compared to consoles but yes they are still pretty big numbers and yes still growing.
