Now I don't play a lot of recent games, but I don't recall any extra maintenance I didn't opt in to (assuming I could automate graphics driver updates). And when there's updates, they generally bother me very little, unlike on consoles, where it's always in the face when I want to do something. For me personally, my recollection is that console maintenance (PS4 is still my most recent console, mind you) is more bothersome than PC maintenance. For all intents and purposes, if I wanted to game on PC and not do much else, PC would be almost zero maintenance for me and almost certainly better than on consoles. Maybe if I played recent games more, my experience would be different, but as someone getting most games maybe a few years late, PC gaming and PC in general is very easy and convenient.
Of course consoles have other convenience features as well that might make them more appealing than PC to some, but maintenance absolutely doesn't need to be a con for PC.
