Why do you guys feel the need to justify what platform you use to play games?
Why are you guys so insecure about the purchase you make you feel the need to defend it and force overs to adopt your way of thinking?

>>
>>315296963
Very few gamers have the money to purchase all platforms. Assuming only just the consoles and pc, you'd still need nearly $2000 cash to purchase all four, and most people can realistically afford 1 or 2.
So you have people that must justifiy their purchase over the alternatives. Its not any more complicated than that.

It's only the pkeks who feel the need to justify their toys while discrediting everyone elses.

Even when the console kids fight amongst themselves, they typically poke fun at each other's games, but they don't try to invalidate the existence of other platforms.

Pkeks on the other hand, shitpost about graphics this, fps that, lol multiplats/kiddy games/resolution etc etc. They are completely cancerous and should have their own containment board, like /pol/.

lazy/misinformed devs/publishers, nothing more

Sega ported a 6 year old console exclusive to PC and it sold very well, was top selling on Steam for a while, MK9 and Injustice ports, according to Netherrealm Studios got really good money for them too (also games that they refused to release on PC on first instance), MKX was even sold on release on PC along with PS4/Xbone (and what the fuck ever happened to the promised PS360 versions of the game)

Jap devs are starting to release games on PC too now that they're seeing the cash flowing, Tales of Zestiria broke the pre-order bonus tresholds the devs had set in place (and those who bought it will get Tales of Symphonia for free)

in other words, piracy does exist, but it doesn't make PC gaming not-viable

I'll even get a bunch of replies calling me Mordecai Goldbergstein, but I believe devs/publishers have the right of using DRM on their products, but on the other hand, consumers are retarded enough to not-require demos from them, so there's no easy stance to take here

at least PC gaming is always growing, and once you go PC you never go back, so PC winning is inevitable, it'll just take longer
>>
If everyone plays with high standards of hardware power it becomes preferred by the market, making games progress faster as a whole by releasing restraints.
>>
>>315299796
>>games are now better optimized
The only reason why do devs optimize at all is because they have to keep it running on consoles at somewhat nice graphical fidelity. Everyone blames developer if a game is running like shit on a console. On the contrary, if a game doesn't run well on your PC it your fault and should go buy something more powerful.
>>
>>315300262
They began on dedicated hardware especially made for the purpose of vidya, aka consoles.
>>
>>315301378
And optimization across more hardware would come with being the preferred release platform.
>>
On the topic of piracy on PC -

The biggest problem me and my friends had back in the day was accessibility. You simply couldn't get games any other way.

Steam solved that for me and my friends and a great many others. It's way fucking easier to just go on steam and buy a game than to pirate it.

this is definetly not what happened with the Arkham Knight port (which really was broken on release), and also you can simply lower your settings to get to a playable framerate

even now they're offering refunds (works on my machine and I 100%'d it so no need to do that for me), and this is a AAA title

or maybe you have some good example in which what you're saying happened?

>>315300501
>Vita has been softmodded
Yeah, the only problem with it is that you need a PC to run it and all you can do is to emulate SMB.
>>
>>315299796
This is flat out false. First off, consoles provide a gauge to pc makers for how much a person is willing to spend on this hobby:

>if 30 million people buy a ps4 for 400, it's not a stretch for a person to spend 6 or 700 for a pc with better performance

also, consoles provide devs with SET hardware they can program for, which guarantees that everyone playing on that hardware will have the same experience.

If pc was the only option for gaming, devs would need to make every game look like WoW so that they can guarantee the maximum amount of people can play it.

With consoles, the graphics bar is increased at a consistent rate, and the only thing a dev has to concern themselves, is getting the game to work on 2 or 3 differwnt types of hardware, vs an infinite amount of combinations on pc.

In short, consoles are a guage for pricing, and FORCE graphics bars to move forward, which is beneficial to pc.

Fuck off retard.

>>315301342
>consumers are retarded enough to not-require demos from them
If you think that the amount of pirates who pirate because there is no demo is actually a big number you are retarded.

that's an interesting point of view

pic related debunks it though, and they can just make games more flexible with the settings (lower res textures, less polygons/particle effects, and so on), and better optimized, and everything you said is worth nothing

but keep namecalling while coming up with false observations (^:

>>315302049
I never implied that people pirate because of that, I'm just saying I'm not that inclined to defending DRM because not every game provides me with a demo (though now Steam has that sweet auto-refund policy, so I think that justifies no demos, at least for games on Steam)

>>315301779
great, now I don't feel guilty about still not having dusted off my Vita

at this point I should probably just give up and buy another PSP and softmod it to run dem sweet emulators on the go with a good screen

You forgot that PC means options.

And PC hardware ain't the wild west anymore, and stopped being that quite a few years back. People use AMD, NVIDIA and INTEL. They all use a standard in many different meanings.

It has been shown time and time again that if you make a good game it sells on PC. Or you simply give people a reason to buy your game. This can be achieved in many ways but the most obvious being mods. Supply mod tools to the community and let people be creative instead of having a "10 year plan" with sequels and dlc.

Look at what DayZ did for Arma.

this. Xbox one never has better fps than PS4. at best, it has the same framerate as PS4, on lower resolution.
>>
Mostly PC kids do it in my experience. I have a social life and play on Ps4. I know xbone people too. None of us talk about our consoles, only games. I used to know a few people that played PC. These faggots talk about graphics, frames, etc. I told them how they liked Bloodborne, they just said they refuse to buy a console.

Seriously do you pkeks even play games for fun? It seems like all they do is bitch about graphics and shit.

>PC gaming has a perception, and simplicity issue for many

Another thing is that not many people view pc gaming as "Comfy" as consoles.
Most consoles players, play from a couch, like wireless controllers, enjoy the big screen, and have home theater sound.
I know most of this can be done with a pc gaming rig, but very few people do.
This is another perception thing.

It's not so much as "justifying" when you're rolling with a PC.

PC gamers want to stop console gamers from fucking themselves and the industry. But unfortunately a lot of console gamers take information as an attack because they don't know any better.

Their machines are becoming slightly more like PCs as time goes on, but there will be no point to them unless they liteerally become PCs. I couldn't bear to return to such a controlled gaming environment.

So I went on craigslist and found a fancy ass wooden futon couch so I could do a queen sized bed while also having a very comfy couch for friends to come over. Works phenomenally and friends are always comfy. I got a CRT tv behind where I sit for an Atari 2600 and a PS2 to play. Nothing like having a classic CRT tv for your legacy consoles.

But you can't, because they're two different markets. Consoles are solely for playing games, most PC gamers (and I mean in a broad sense) mainly play games like Leauge and Hearthstone. You don't see these types of games because there's no market for it on consoles and it makes tons of money on PC. What makes you think devs will abandon this? How would this sustain AAA games?

Ps4 and xbone are abominations, they're wannabe PCs that are mac tier jewish. The monthly fees raise the price well beyond that of a better PC while also keeping the industry back and ensuring that you won't get to play a better version of a game once you've upgraded hardware. PCs come in many form factors and can do anything a console can do.

It is an objective fact that these consoles are superior and not needed anymore. Nintendo and tablets can have the kids who can't afford a PC and games that require hefty power can move onto PC where it can be free of the shackles consoles put on it. There is also no objectively good (for the consumer) reason to keep consumers split between wannabe PC consoles and PC. The consoles are barely cheaper but its like saving 100$ at the cost of ruining the experience for everyone and yourself. Consoles do more harm than good. Many problems PC face can be solved by consoles dying. Lack of coop? consoles being gone would heavily influence developers to develope more couch coop for PC. The list goes on. The massive damage consoles do to gaming as a whole is far too severe for the little amount of money it saves you.

TL:DR consoles don't need to exist and console fags can't come to terms with how incredibly bad of a purchase they've made. They'll continue to pay mid tier PC price for below entry level power for a very long time.

You realize there are actual PC exclusives that already exist right? And they are not "forced to all look like WoW"?

If consoles suddenly disappeared overnight, cheaper pre-built PCs would take up the space (which....is ALREADY happening! Shocking!). Also, if by "PC makers" you mean "GPU makers," then your point is even more retarded because the GPUs in the consoles are made by the exact company that makes their more powerful PC counterparts.

Because most of /v/ and the internet in general are ignorant faggots that should find other hobbies.

PC games in general are needed because it's an open platform where new creators can emerge. However, the amount of profits they can get is tenfold on consoles (depending on the game of course).

The problem/argument that everyone bitches about but no one knows about, is that a game made for consoles and ported to PC is usually not well optimized for the hundreds of different hardware people have. With consoles you have to code for a specific hardware and it will guarantee that everyone will have the same experience. It's not the case with PC. Not to mention the majority of PC gamers don't have good hardware to begin with.

The whole point of consoles was created for those who wanted gaming experience in their living room without having to setup a PC. Why is this a bad thing?

Also, consoles aren't the ones holding back PCs, developers are. They are the ones that either dictate how a game is going to be graphically wise or FPS wise. If they are in the low graphical fidelity side is because they geared towards console gaming first, which is going to make them profits.

Second problem is control, while it is now easier to plug and play controllers, back then a console port meant having to deal with subpar controls, developers didn't even take the time to optimized their controls for mouse and keyboard.

Pkeks feel the need to validate their choices through shitposting and namecalling.

I disagree with you, I'm another person. I think PC exclusives are optimized better. The average PC game however isn't, it's just that you strongarm the game with superior hardware.

Console owners rarely care about PC, it's only a small minority of users on the internet that do.

What is a growing trend however is Steam fanboys and console port apologists praising the developers just to have more ports come to PC instead of giving them criticism to their shoddy port. PC standards have definitely fallen since the late 90s/early to mid 2000.

computers have more raw power, so they can add shit they cut for the console port, MGR or DMC are examples of optimized games on pc with added stuff, and still can run on toasters.
console ports are squished more than native pc games because they are optimized from the start to fit into the shitty console hardware, and then add graphics to fit high end pcs demand, to shill the newest videocard from nvdia because shills.

I honestly give no fuck whatsoever about 60fps.
But for crying out loud, why can't modern games ever have stable framerates?

60fps can fuck off for all I care. But then at the very least, why can't we get stable framerates?
Stable 60 > Stable 30fps > constantly fluctuating 40-60fps.

If you can't get stable 60fps. Either lower the damn fucking graphics so that you can get stable 60fps. Or perhaps more reasonably, aim for stable 30fps. But for crying out loud, don't just push hardware to their limits and then go for whatever unstable framerates you end up with. It's disgusting.

Its all about how your speak anon, console players are being assaulted by the "master race" and that ain't the best way to make peace talks, hence the distrust.

Honestly, /v/ should be divided into /pcgaming/ and /shilling/, that way consolefags could watch their Bloodborne threads 404 in a few minutes from nobody talking about the game itself

Tribalism. i mean... there are people that defends company numbers which are inconsequential and don't benefit them in the slightest.

It relies on pre built speeches and appealing to the emotions of the tribe.
So you always end up facing the same arguments:

PC has 60FPS and 4K, PS4 has no games, Wii U graphics sucks and is for children, etc...
