i don't hate pc gaming, in fact i love it. pc gamers are still the worst posters on Sup Forums though

port beggars should all be hanged

Mice and keyboards aren't designed for gaming

Because it's expensive and console games have the superior exclusives and pcfags think otherwise

>port beggars should all be hanged
switchfags are currently the biggest port beggars

>not designed for gaming
>still perfection for gaming

Because they're plebs.

And yet they're way better than controllers.

Wow, it's like that's the only thing in the world that hooks into a usb port and can be used by PCs as a controller.

PC Gaming isn't bad. PC Gamers are.

They're the type of people that blow thousands of dollars on building the beefiest computer because they're for some reason unable to stand the thought of playing games unless they're in their highest state.

They're also the type of people that actually care about ranked games, eSports, and K/D Ratios.

Online gaming communities are cancer, and most of them stem from PC Gaming.

It does suck that most of the community is like that. They use specs as a dick measuring contest, and prices of parts as pornography. I built a computer 5 or so years ago to emulate GCN and Wii and such and hey, that's what I do. I don't have the best specs, I'm still running a Haswell I5 and Windows 7 for goodness sake, but it does what I need it to do. I wish the rest of the community would see that not everyone needs 4-5000 rigs to play what they want.

To be honest, most of the people I see in online pc games is similar to the trash that plagues consoles as well.

>They're also the type of people that actually care about ranked games, eSports, and K/D Ratios.
>most of them stem from PC Gaming
I didn't know it was 2004 again. Oh wait, it's not and most of those things have been far surpassed by console peasants.

Because only being able to move in 4 directions is shit. I got a gaming pc and hate playing games on it. It feels like I'm playing games on a big calculator.

poverishessness
they are poor
that is literally it, the only reason you would not own the best thing for the most compatibility

consoles are ARIGHT, but not for that price tag, considering you have to buy $60 shit stains just to justify your bad choices

PC "gamers" spend all their money on their "rig" just so they can get 60 fps in three year old ports

whereas

Console gamers spend all their money on thoughtful investments that will pay back multiples long term

Plug in a controller?

So what you are saying is that buying a PC is like buying the GOTY edition instead of that shell of a game it first releases as?

Get a wired Xbox 360 or Xbone controller, or a wireless one with the appropite dongle, then put that bastard in your living room, boot steam to BPM, filter your games to show the ones with 100% controller compatibly and go to town my nigga

>Console gamers spend all their money on thoughtful investments

People tend to dislike PC gaming because the mouse and keyboard used to force developers to make slower paced game, and kind of boring. Console games got their roots from arcade games and were much more action driven.

>only being able to move in 4 directions
???

>"pc master race"
>has to make pc more like console to play games

pushing the graphics meme then pushing the "unoptimized ports are OK" meme
then the overwhelming majority of PC "gamers" are assfaggots playing dumb fucks

...

Hey, if it gets him out of the consolebaby mindset and puts the training wheels for actually PC gaming on him I don't see the harm in it.

PC fats are the most obnoxious snobs in gaming, they're brain dead memers who shit up every community, you can kiss good threads goodbye if it gets ported to PC. They are the worst consumer base and it's only getting worse as time goes on. Not to mention every single one of them don't pay for games, they're all pirates and are killing the medium as a whole. This is coming from someone who plays primarily on PC. fuck you guys.

Because you guys touch yourselves at night.

Who on earth would anyone hate pc gaming?
>I can't remember the last time I paid for a game.
Think it was Rising Storm 2? A game which wouldn't even really be possible on consoles btw

>60fps in every game.
Coming from consoles with sub 30fps this is a massive improvement. I can never go back for this reason alone

>mouse and keyboard is simply better period. can always plug in whatever controller you want anyway

>upgrade whenever you feel like it
You don't have to buy a whole new system every 6 or 7 years. I just upgrade my gpu every 2-3 years or so. My cpu (2500k) lasted around 6 years. I could probably still use it but I felt like upgrading it. Bought a used i7 on ebay. Didn't even need a new motherboard. Also if you're happy with lower graphics and framerates you can go a long time without upgrading, and you won't be locked out of games because you don't have the newest hardware.

>more games than all consoles combined
whole exclusive genres. Massive backwards compatible library. mods that make old games more playable today. free online

The list is fucking endless. I could go on all day. Why would anyone choose a console over a pc?

I don't. I have a good PC to go alongside my PS4 and N3DS and maybe a Switch some day. I just hate pcmasterrace tier faggots.

>has to make pc more like console to play games
are you fucking retarded, are you one of those guys that defends mouse and keyboard above all things? there are plenty of ways to play on PC, and just because consoles only offer gamepads, you think that is something that you have to despise for some reason when gaming on PC?

I like PC more, but that's because of the actual freedom of choice over what parts I put in, what OS I run, and even just what type of controller I use, not because I love to play on a typewriter, Mouse + Keyboard is very good for some games and very horrible for others

>pushing the graphics meme then pushing the "unoptimized ports are OK" meme
This is what comes out when a consolelard struggles for arguments.

Mouse is superior to analog sticks in every way.

>Mouse + Keyboard is very good for some games and very horrible for others
This, try playing Civ with a controller, or Nier: Automata on M&K

JEALOUSY

Sony fags are a special breed of brand loyalist autism. They spend more time attempting to drown pc centered games with shitposts instead of actually playing games.

It's why your typical "go to to /vg/" or -shill suffix posting is usually by a sonybro.

Console gaming

DONE

I'm an idort with a gayman PC. It's the mustardrace fags I hate. Still and always the worst fanbase in gaming

>console gaming
>put the game in
>does not have to download stuff
>pc
>thinks you need to fidget loads to get it work right on a pc
>think any of the shit listed takes loads of time

Console games are optimized for the console, so the performance settings are predefined by the developers,

PC gaming, if you don't have a $2000 gaming rig, you'll HAVE to do the settings manually, like find your sweet spot between fps and graphics. It's simple.

analog stick is better in controlling directions

>Buy new console
>Put the game in

AHAHAHA CONSOLE FAGS LADIES AND GENTLEMEN
THEY NOT ONLY HAVE TO "BUY" GAMES IN A SHOP LIKE A CAVEMAN
THEY HAVE TO PHYSICALLY PUT A FUCKING "DISC" IN
AHAHAHAHA

>2 minutes on the graphics setting screen is too much for me

This.

Rather be a snob than living in complete apathy.

I actually own a decent rig and have found myself moving back to consoles this year. I spend so much if my day behind a desk working that I would rather disassociate my fun time from the work environment. Am I fucked?

why do developers release games on pc if pc gamers are pirates then? Answer me that one knucklehead.

Is this post coming to the switch?
If not I don't care

>they're for some reason unable to stand the thought of playing games unless they're in their highest state.
God forbid liking quality.

Fair enough that makes sense. I'm doing cs in college and I'm worried that I will get burned out too.

...

They're jealous of our superior performance, and are made to feel stupid by our knowledge about PC's, which far surpasses "insert disc, press start."

...

how is your meme folder going user

Just get an hdmi cord user

>Implying its not the sony peasants.

Can't imagine what it's like living in this retard's head

>sony fags constantly shit up star sector, NV, grim dawn, and vtmb threads
>continuously defends paid online and DMCA'ing emulation
>believes you can pirate games on fucking youtube
>claims pc "shits up every community" but conveniently ignores persona waifu fags and "shh, maria is sleeping" threads while shitting up pc centered games

Sony truly is the most cancerous community out, if not just for their victim complex alone.

so 7700k is still the most sensible choice I guess

Aside from PC gaming being completely fucking dead in the 2000s (not that any newfags here would know, even though several articles were published on several reputable sites like even PC Gamer) to being a complete joke now with shit like e-sports mobas and early access, the community of PC is god fucking awful. Shit like where their own retardation caught up with them and they're trying to save face for a platform they don't even fucking play on, but just shitpost online with because they have no fucking lives.
>inb4 mad baseless assumptions of "sonyfag or nintenbro or whatever"
Fanboying a company is literally childish. Get a fucking job so you can afford your hobbies.

Aside from that, the hardware and software side for PC was godawful for the longest, overpriced shit CPU/GPUs and poor ports that questions why would you even bother playing on PC if it doesn't offer the HUGE leap in performance and visuals that's suppose to be the attraction of PC gaming.

I don't, I'm an IDORT and occasionally play something on PC (currently going through DOS2 with a friend).
I do hate system warriors though and PCMR shitposters are doing a very good job at being annoying shitstains (not that the other systems' zealots fall far behind but that's a topic for other thread).

>who shit up every community, you can kiss good threads goodbye if it gets ported to PC
don't believe your own lies
most of your exclusives already have a shitty communities, and when they get ported to pc you throw a tantrum and start blaming pc players for "ruining" your already ruined community
not that i expect any less from sonybros

Accurate. But it's leaving out
>57fps!!!??? FUCK THIS SLIDESHOW

what's wrong with wanting a game on PC? Looking at last gen games should already be the evidence you need that PC is the objectively superior platform. Who wants to play games at 720p 30 fps anymore? This is legitimately how some people are forced to play games like dead space or mirrors edge in 2017 if they don't have a PC.
>They're also the type of people that actually care about ranked games, eSports, and K/D Ratios.
this began with Halo 2 in 2004 and got worse with COD 4 in 2007. Both were exclusively successful on consoles. Overwatch is mostly play on consoles today and is known for having by far the most hostile and least fun competitive community
>pushing the "unoptimized ports are OK" meme
there is not a single port this gen that doesn't perform better on a budget GPU than it does on consoles. Even extreme cases like Assassins Creed Unity, Dishonored 2, or Arkham Knight still perform equally or better than a ps4 on a 750ti let alone an AMD 7950
> you can kiss good threads goodbye if it gets ported to PC
believing the meme that the quality of the average person changes depending on the platform that people play on is the dumbest shit in the history of the world. What you're observing is small communities becoming large, not one horrible community destroying a good one. There's fantastic PC gaming communities based on exclusives like Mount and Blade, DOOM/Quake, Stalker, etc.

They can't afford it. That's like asking why people hate luxury cars or mansions. Better graphics, resolution, framerate and configurability are always a good thing

why do you care

Do you even read the dumb shit that you type?

>They're also the type of people that actually care about ranked games, eSports, and K/D Ratios.

>Online gaming communities are cancer, and most of them stem from PC Gaming.
Really? Because I only bought my 1080ti for the better graphics

holy crap

Why, are you illiterate kid? Sorry I'm not going to dumb myself down for your sake, I know PC.ucks are used to being spoonfed and you're self-entitled, but I'm not gonna baby you.

Most people who choose console over PC do it because it's easier. You just buy your console, plug it in, and you're ready to go.

The amount of variation there is in PC building is intimidating. What parts do I buy? How do I put them together? Will my build be obsolete in the coming months?

It's a lot to think about for the average Joe who just wants to play some vidya. Add onto that the high price range of PC building. All of this adds up and eventually they reach the point of: "fuck it, i'm buying an xbox".

GOOD post.

>Console gamers spend all their money on thoughtful investments
God I wish I could be THIS 14 years old again. I bet you think donating to kickstarters are "investments" as well

Sony ggers don't hate it. They always go to pc when xbox gets console exclusives.

I enjoyed not reading this

Yeah, whatever.

I don't hate PC gaming, even though I still don't think it's designed well for vidya.
There's something really uncomfortable about sitting on your chair at the same desk you browse the internet and playing on such a small screen.
It's simply not possible to make playing on PC comfy without just plugging it in your TV and which point you might aswell use your console.

But most of all, as others pointed out, the user are the absolute worst.
Most of them are poorfags who have to constantly remind themselves that PC is the best of em all because otherwise their investment would go to waste.
And their online presence is a F- as they absolutely ruin every community that's prevalent on console.
I don't think I need to mention their focus on GRAFFIX which is the single worst thing you could do as a consumer.

because it does lmao

You sound angry and autistic over nothing. Also obviously the moba community and the "muh rig" community are completely disparate, so I don't understand trying to lump together all people who play games on computers

Somebody refute anything in this post

because you don't have to pay a subscription to play multiplayer games

Define "thoughtful investments". How conveniently you use vague terms.

these are the same kind of people who look at the steam hardware survey and literally think that most desktop gamers run at 1366x768 on integrated graphics. Somehow there are console centric gamers legitimately comparing themselves to 12 year olds playing TF2 on their mom's laptops

Pic related shows a sonyfag doing his usual, "go to /vg/" bullshit, and then later bitching about it on some shitty pubg thread.
I don't need to post pics on sonyfags defending paid online, or being against emulation, unless you wanna feign amnesia for the past month.

The sony victim complex is real.

Yo this motherfucker has to be the stupidest person I've ever crossed paths with.
Combined with that image I think it's safe to say you should be put down.

Jealousy.

>p-p-p-p-paid subscription!

Here's how to defeat this common PC.uck "argument" in 3 letters and also show that they've been doing to longer before consoles even did subscriptions.

WoW.

...

Yeah, it sucks how have to pay a WoW subscription to play Call of Duty online.

it has everything to do with a small community being large and nothing to do with the platform. See Mount and Blade, Stalker, DOOM/Quake threads, etc. Incredible and fun gameplay discussion. PC Only. It has everything to do with size.

do you have any idea how long people begged for WoW to be on consoles? It is the original meme port begging

For one game? And it's not like private servers dont exist.

Meanwhile PSN subscription is forced on you just to be online.

Because PC gamers are turbo autists who suck the fun out of eveything.

This but unironically
You can really tell a significant increase in anti-pc posting whenever a new emulation software is released

Console gamers ruined the whole industry by popularizing dlc.

two ways to translate this post
>just wants to play games and have fun
or
>has incredibly low standards and gets mad when accurately called out on it
please post what games or scenarios a turbo autist has sucked the fun out of something
