It’s all a fucking smokescreen. Man, people just eat that shit up. Every time. It’s almost like the game is saturated in satire and we’re spooning it down ourselves.
They are used to playstation players who buy a console for twice the price it’s worth through discord bots. I don’t think they even know what a backlash is
Nowadays a console is just a locked down, less expensive pc. I think buying the components of a ps5 and assembling the pc is more expensive than just buying a console and liberating it, which is what I would do if I was to ever buy one.
which is why the steam deck was such a breath of fresh air, it’s what consoles SHOULD be.
A computer built primarily for gaming, sold at a reasonable price, that merrily lets you switch to desktop mode and launch excel for some office work if you want to.
Maybe a company that has (mostly) made consoles isn’t exactly playing games or has people on staff on the executive level that play(ed) on a PC. I’m 30 and outside of a brief time I tried to play on a PC I’ve pretty much been console my entire life. My first gaming experiences were all on console. It’s completely logical for a company to make a move like this when they have specialized in one area for a time.
Also gaming on a PC is 40 years old, what do they still have to learn?
How much less bullshit PC players are willing to put up with compared to their console counterparts, apparently.
Uhhhh, people install shit like Vanguard just so that they can keep having their mother insulted in the ingame chat.
And many people put up with cascades of different lauchers (and accounts).
So I am glad that there was some push back this time, but it’s not like there would be some sane baseline of PC players in that regard.
Imagine doing this for all kinds of stuff like ads, over priced groceries, other games that required needless launchers.
Just surprising how this works so often and every time there are still people trying to convince everyone to just move on.
If people were capable of choosing long over short term value then the market might be working instead of the shitshow it is right now. IDGI either.

Oh, wait. fuck.
“You guys actually want to play these things? Yeeesh.”

They are learning what level of bullshit PC gamers will tolerate.
