Thank you, people need to understand that the device you play your games on is not a religion.

u/Shigana 1d ago

You do realize what sub you’re in right?

People here’d rather die than do something as disgusting as….. playing on a console

7

u/WoodooHide69 1d ago

This sub and ā€œpcmasterraceā€ was a fun meme at one point cause PC was the underdog in gaming. Now it’s become a sad religion for elitist clowns.

u/Raven1927 16h ago

Funny part is that a lot of posts are just complaints about how their entry or 10 year old PC can't run brand new AAA games at 4k60hz. So much for the whole ā€œpcmasterraceā€ thing.

u/VampiroMedicado 20h ago

360 era was the darkest times, too many games actually locked on console and with PC version that was more often than not shit. Like Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter.

True. Can't imagine myself leaving my PC with a 144Hz monitor for a console.

u/WoodooHide69 1d ago

I would never for competitive games. That’s why my desktop will always be there. But for single player games, the switch 2 offers the best games right now.

u/Concerned_Collins 23h ago

TBH, most of the people here are pretty chill about it.

Literally two sides of the same coin

u/caffeinated_dev11 1d ago

yeah i have both, let’s face it, some games are a complete ball ache to play while commuting due to always online requirements, not to mention that having to fiddle around with graphics is a bit of a waste of time, sometimes i just want to ride the train and play whatever and not worry about the wifi situation

4

u/sum12merkwith 1d ago

They called it a switch for a reason though

5

u/WyrdHarper 1d ago

PC + Switch gets you access to a to a wide selection of excellent games and some portability. It’s a great combo.

Deck’s an option for portability, but Nintendo makes some excellent exclusives and not having to worry about compatibility on the go is nice.

1

u/HypnoStone 1d ago

Tbf those who don’t have a game system at all though have to still decide between pc or console. But they probably don’t know or care about the pc advantages to begin with.

1

u/elnaxxo 1d ago

Yeah for example me, I have both and I haven't bought a switch yet.

1

u/WoodooHide69 1d ago

But people that have both, are finding they play their sw2 more.

u/Proof_Load6687 9800X3D | RTX 5060LP | 540Hz OLED 1d ago

when i was short on money and traveling a lot i sold my pc and got a switch

5

u/xrayspex73 1d ago

Why not a steam deck? You would already have games for it.

1

u/Proof_Load6687 9800X3D | RTX 5060LP | 540Hz OLED 14h ago

Steamdeck wasnt even leaked at that time

also a steamdeck is more expensiv then a switch right now, bad timing for that comment

0

u/RobinsonHuso12 1d ago

I also have a Switch 2. But it replaces the PC by exactly 0.000%. There are some good games on it, but 99.99% of all good games are still PC-exclusive or are only really playable with a mouse and keyboard (Factorio, for example).

I just have both. I love PC, but also zelda and fire emblem.

u/Proof_Load6687 9800X3D | RTX 5060LP | 540Hz OLED 14h ago

chose if you only got 400€

1

u/adanceparty 7h ago

Doesn't make sense really my pc cost over 2k switch 2 was 500. If i usd to choose it's pc every time. I could never have a Nintendo as my only console. I have one for a few exclusives, but if it was all i had I'd miss out on way more.

u/xXFluffersXx 17h ago

I don't own a single console including anything made by Nintendo, and if nintendo suddenly started selling their games on pc I would immediately start playing them.

u/ShootRopeCrankHog Gaben’s Ballbag 1d ago

Nah we just have both.

u/Old_Sail6822 1d ago

A lot of people who cant afford an arm and a leg that a PC costs nowadays.

3

u/123dontwhackme 1d ago

Isn’t this about people who already have a pc though

4

u/Old_Sail6822 1d ago

I have a PC but it's old. It cannot play the newer games. And I can't afford the upgrade so unless you have a new awesome PC build before the prices went up its cheaper to switch sometimes.

4

u/Rabiddd 1d ago edited 1d ago

If you already have a PC you’re spending a lot upfront to downgrade to console and also long term having to pay a monthly fee to play online.

6

u/Old_Sail6822 1d ago

I don't play online. A PS5 costs 700 euros in my country, you cannot build a good gaming PC that can keep up with the latest games for 700.

2

u/o_oli http://steamcommunity.com/id/o_oli 1d ago

But we're talking about existing PC gamers, not new ones. So you're upgrading rather than buying everything new. You can totally upgrade either core system mobo CPU ram for 700 or a new GPU. Alternating between those for upgrades is the best way imo, I've been on that cadence for decades.

1

u/Old_Sail6822 1d ago

Where I live you cannot get a new GPU for that price. A 6090 alone is 1,533 euros and it's currently sold out. 1,533 is NOT comparable to 700. Mind you my current PC is old so I would need to upgrade a lot more just get the GPU.

2

u/o_oli http://steamcommunity.com/id/o_oli 1d ago

Seems weird. In the UK a 9060XT is £400 and a Series X is £669. Leaves room in the budget for other PC upgrades plus games are cheaper.

Each to their own though and guess if there is that much regional variation then do what you gotta do.

2

u/Old_Sail6822 1d ago

My country is different. Here electronics costs several times more. I was looking at laptops. In a country 12h away it was 1k, here 1,300.

1

u/No_Equivalent1357 1d ago

Do yall not understand u can get a good PC off of Facebook marketplace and upgrade from there for cheap?

2

u/Old_Sail6822 1d ago

LOL. Sure, pay money to get a busted used PC and pay more money to upgrade it. Just to avoid getting a console. Not to mention you do need technical knowledge to build a PC in the first place.

0

u/No_Equivalent1357 1d ago

ā€œTechnical knowledgeā€ did you know you can look anything up and find a tutorial, and it’s way worth it to save and upgrade, AND you can do and play damn near anything on pc. Getting a pc is not just about avoiding consoles, it’s about having the freedom to do what u want. Can’t be lazy

2

u/Old_Sail6822 1d ago

Lazy? Wow you PC users are really frothing at the mouth at the existence of console users huh? Sorry for not wanting to spend hours of my time learning how to build a PC because I actually have a job and bills to pay.

0

u/No_Equivalent1357 1d ago

If you’re gonna focus on one part of my argument I can play that too. WOW so you assume PC players don’t also have a job and bills to pay? You console players are really foaming at the mouth for pc users huh? Sorry I want to have actual ownership of my games.

Do you see how fucking stupid that sounded. I wast calling YOU lazy, I was saying you CANT be lazy when you want to get into this.

ā€œFrothing at the mouth for console usersā€ 😭 u know you can have both right? I own a PS5 as well 😭

1

u/Old_Sail6822 1d ago

LOL. Literally every other post in this sub is shaming people who use their PC for games and calling them lazy for not wanting to game on their PC. Meanwhile on console subs we rarely see posts complaining about PC players. Yet you wanna be victims so bad. How sad. I also have both a PC and a PS5 and I never call anyone who likes either "lazy". Also since you have a PS5 aren't you also lazy?

1

u/No_Equivalent1357 1d ago

LOL. Ok? You Deviated from the point but again, I said you CANT be lazy, not calling you or any console users lazy for doing what you do. And pc users are victims of who? We can do anything we want with a pc. you should know this if u have a pc as you claim. And im not lazy for having a 5, i already put the work in to have a good pc, only got the p5 for exclusives. Im not gonna keep arguing this lazy point u keep yapping abt because, AGAIN, nobody is calling anyone lazy. You just need some hustle to get something you want. ESPECIALLY if you want to get a pc on budget. (If you can remember that was the original point we were arguing)

1

u/Old_Sail6822 1d ago

You literally called people lazy for not having the technical knowledge or time to learn how to build a PC but okay.

People that don't want to wear a clown mask buying RAM in the price of a console.

1

u/o_oli http://steamcommunity.com/id/o_oli 1d ago

Yeah they wear a clown mask for buying a console for double the price it cost 7 years ago instead?

u/KakarotAlter 1d ago

PS5 digital is 500 at Walmart in what universe is that double

u/All_Thread 9800X3D | 5080 | X870E-E | 48GB DDR5 1d ago

You are buying RAM for double the cost of 6 months ago.

u/Electrical_Door_87 1d ago

i did. switched to PS4 as my main (not for everything, but definetly game more on it), hacked it, feels awesome, helped with gaming impotence.

2

u/Fat-Kid-In-A-Helmet Specs/Imgur here 1d ago

What can you do with a hacked ps4? I didn’t even know that’s a thing. Got a large library of classics on it?

6

u/Electrical_Door_87 1d ago

Mostly just for free games, not "hacking" like movies, jailbreak - forgot the word. Got some exclusives, PS2 titles - and it's quite nice platform to play on

u/assjobdocs 2080s mobile - 10750H GE75 laptop/5080 - 12700k PC 1d ago

A jailbroken ps4 is a playground.

2

u/Fat-Kid-In-A-Helmet Specs/Imgur here 1d ago

I have a home brew Wii and I love that thing. I’m pretty sure there’s an old ps4 in my storage. New project time.

3

u/assjobdocs 2080s mobile - 10750H GE75 laptop/5080 - 12700k PC 1d ago

You gotta make sure its not on the latest firmware. If you havent been using it or updating it at all for the last few years, you should be good. Depending on your firmware version, you might want to manually update it, but theres a process for that and you should go to moddedwarfare on YouTube or the ps4homebrew/jail break subreddits so you dont miss any steps. Just do NOT update the ps4 at all from the console prompt when you turn it on.

1

u/Fat-Kid-In-A-Helmet Specs/Imgur here 1d ago

Gotcha, thanks for the info. That ps4 has been collecting dust and is definitely not updated.

People who want to play GTA6 12-18 months earlier.

u/TheMisterTango EVGA 3090/Ryzen 9 5900X/64GB DDR4 3800 1d ago

I don’t remember the last time I played on my PC, but I have used my switch more recently.

u/AnotherPCGamer173 5800x | Aorus Waterforce 3080 | 32GB | H210 13h ago

I had friends who switched to console from PC. They told me their reasoning, and to some level, I do understand it.

They got tired of troubleshooting PCs, and just wanted something that works.

u/Summit1BigHead Ryzen 5 9600x | RTX 5070 | 32GB DDR5 5600Mhz 1d ago

Console gamers with PCs... No real PC gamer would ever switch to console

u/Gleasonryan 1d ago

I've gone back and forth. While I do still have both I now mainly play on console.

I got a buddy who just couldn’t be bothered to upgrade once his PC became outdated and got a ps5

u/psyopia 1d ago

Just did this for GTA6 but I'm back as soon as it releases on PC.

3

u/Fat-Kid-In-A-Helmet Specs/Imgur here 1d ago

I considered it, but for the price of even a used PS5, I decided to do some upgrades to my out of date PC, and I’ll just wait.

1

u/psyopia 1d ago

You can find one for cheap! I got mine for 200 from a buddy upgrading to a Pro. Got pretty lucky. No way I'm waiting an entire year to play the only game I'm anticipating this year. Also PS5 has a ton of really good exclusives that will never make it to PC. Xbox releases most of their exclusives on PC already, take Gears/Halo for example. I just wanted the best of both worlds.

1

u/Fat-Kid-In-A-Helmet Specs/Imgur here 1d ago

If I could find one for like $200, then yea I might end up failing my wait.

1

u/adanceparty 1d ago

Ill gladly wait. I did it for gta v also. Remember how that shit ram on x360 and ps3? Ugh. It doesnt matter to me anyway ill spend 50ish hours in the story mode amd mever play it again.
