Just buy a gaming PC.

I like to play my games knowing the developers optimized it for exactly the hardware I’m playing on.

I like to play my games on hardware that I picked out and put together personally. Also I like that hardware to be using an OS of my choosing with as much expandable storage as I could possibly want. Also, I don’t like to give my money to companies that encourage exclusivity on their hardware.

Yeah, if you enjoy the process of fiddling around with your system and installing cool new drivers and programs to get your game running then PC gaming is better no doubt.

I just want to turn the game on and play though

Both major consoles literally have multiple versions with differing performance lmfao

As opposed to PC which has infinite variations

Typically they still have performance issues though? I haven’t played on consoles since Xbox 360, other than the odd Nintendo game. I spent thousands of dollars on 360 and PS3 games and hardware and have none of it now. But my entire PC library is still playable.

This is why pirating what you already owned should be morally correct :)

Now the games are attached to your windows and Sony accounts so they’ll follow you around as much as steam games do

I’m with ya. When it’s gaming time, I just want it to work. I don’t want to be fiddling with settings constantly.

That being said, I do prefer RPGs and RTSs much more with a keyboard and mouse, so I’ll usually play those on my computer, but that’s not such a problem any more with keyboard and mouse being supported by consoles.

Totally, mouse and keyboard are very clutch for those genres
