Why does PC gaming feel so... soulless?

PCfags BTFO yet again

Sure.

because these days the majority of PC users play average 3rd party games between temporary fad multiplayer games

the unique identity it had from 1992 to probably around 2008 is now gone - but pretending to be kept alive by indenial copers who probably never had a real gaming pc until 5 years ago.

holy fucking based, pkeks btfo

STFO non, c´mon lets play some tf2 ;_;

Because you don't have a main corporation to pretend to be your friend unless you're a pcbro.

yeah haha, btw FUCK INTEL AND FUCK NVIDIOTS

It's because soul is only visible at 30 fps.

>running .exe files on a workstation that wasn't designed to play video game
just use a launcher if this bothers you?
>sitting in an uncomfortable desk chair
then buy a herman miller
>watching a small, low res monitor screen
then buy a bug 4k monitor? or even a TV?
>keyboard and mouse instead of a contoller which games are designed for
then use a controller?
>no exclusives other than niche genres (RTS)
I wouldn't consider FPS niche either. But who cares about exclusivity? just play fun games.
>community is the worst out of all major systems
who cares?
>overrun by numales and zoomers because it became a reddit meme
who cares?
>devs have abandoned it and now only shit out console ports so you can play the latest ubisoft games at high framerate
idk I'm seeing more development than before. I honestly have no reason to buy a console this gen.

fun fact if you try to even explain strategy games to consoletards their eyes glaze over and they just can't process what you're saying, it's like a machine program blocks out all knowledge of them so they don't get corrupted or something. its why this thread has been posted infinite times

play some dariusburst

Sure.
>running .exe files on a workstation that wasn't designed to play video game
If you use a launcher like Steam/GOG then you'll never have to launch a game from exe. You can use big picture if you want a console-like dashboard
>sitting in an uncomfortable desk chair
Get a better chair
>watching a small, low res monitor screen
Get a better screen
>keyboard and mouse instead of a contoller which games are designed for
Then use a gamepad almost all PC games support it. MKB is a meme for tryhards.
>no exclusives other than niche genres (RTS)
Yeah, you just play the superior version of every multiplat game. Who cares about the exclusive meme.
>community is the worst out of all major systems
Imagine playing online games
>overrun by numales and zoomers because it became a reddit meme
Imagine playing online games or giving a fuck about the "community" of a platform
>devs have abandoned it and now only shit out console ports so you can play the latest ubisoft games at high framerate
95% of good games come to PC. You say "console ports", I say "the superior version of the game"

>No one uses desktops these days either.
gaming aside I will never understand this fucking meme.
I know so many normies that don't even have a dock. Just flat out use a shitty laptop for everything.

it has no good games
it used to be worth it because if you liked mmo's, fps's or strategy games a gaming pc was a must have, but now all of those genres are dead so the PC just has console ports, early access survival crafting games and indie games about mental health.

>soulless
Why does everything have to be judged by its "soul".soul is subjective

>Zig Forums
>knowing what dariusburst is
Good taste user but Zig Forumss entire STG knowledge comes from touhou

>running .exe files on a workstation that wasn't designed to play video game
or you can have your thing do both?
>sitting in an uncomfortable desk chair
I use a recliner at my desk tho.
>watching a small, low res monitor screen
Monitors come upwards to 49 inches at this point, and many people buy 32 inch monitors, which is the size of a typical TV
>keyboard and mouse instead of a contoller which games are designed for
You can just plug in your controller...
>no exclusives other than niche genres (RTS)
and like 99% of indie games out there.
>community is the worst out of all major systems
lol
>overrun by numales and zoomers because it became a reddit meme
not like zoomers and numales flood the console market either
>devs have abandoned it and now only shit out console ports so you can play the latest ubisoft games at high framerate
only cuck devs have
Now take your (You) and don't spend it all at one place.

This is a sterile streamer station no wonder it lacks soul.

i'm talking about boomer shooters i should have clarified. all of the most popular fps's are console ones and counter strike is for pajeets and chinks. i have never met a white person that played counter strike.

but they are not. fps and strat are as popular as ever. lol and dota are very popular. what a fucking retard.

Right, post pic related to a game that natively allows 120fps without mods.

>lol
>dota

>strategy
based retard

Posts this bad should be a permaban

I have no idea how normies are OK with using a phone and laptop for everything. I fucking hate working on those tiny ass screens. And laptops all have awful "low profile" keyboards. Even worse is using a trackpad or touchscreen. If I'm forced to use a laptop I'll carry a bluetooth mouse with me to use with it. Seeing normies in public using their laptops without mice is literally disgusting. I always use a desktop if at all possible, laptop with a mouse when I can't, and I only use my phone for texting, listening to music, and checking Google Maps.

because It is meant for the soulless.

You'll buy it and then you'll download some mods for some games such as skyrim and download some demanding games, run them, be amazed at graphics, go online to talk about how amazing they look and then just keep browsing the internet.

Then after some days/weeks you will suddenly realize that you paid 2 thousand dolalrs and that the only games that are demanding are console ports that follow the casualized and wattered down modern gaming formula, aka making games focused solely on graphics, presentation and cinematic experiences instead of proper gameplay. You have essentially paid 2 two thousand dollars to browse Zig Forums. You'll also realize that instead of investing so much to play console ports, you could have simply gotten a console because they are the focus of this crap and have more of them in the form of exclusives.

Then you'll download some 5~10 year old game that can run on any toaster and keep playing that because it's much better than any modern crap. The only modern titles that will catch your attention at things that run on anything, such as Underrail (rail, not tale).

After that, you'll go back to looking things up about hardware and whatnot, tweaking your settings and eventually you'll be right back to the never ending path of planning upgrade paths for your PC because that's actually way funnier than playing anything.

If you're up for that, then go right ahead. If, however, you are smart, you'll realize that high end PC gaming is literally console gaming with better gwaphix as in not worth it at fucking all and that you should buy a mid range PC at the very best and put your money somewhere else.

Ever noticed how whenever those r/pcmasterrace types talk about vidya, it's always a specs circlejerk and NEVER about any games? That's because they don't play anything. It's all about THEORETICAL advantages that never come to fruition. When you ask them to cite games, they will ALWAYS resort to Stalker and Mount&Blade at the very best.

>i have never met a white person that played counter strike
This is 100% true but what has it got to do with anything?

>all of the most popular FPs are console ones
I mean sure, overwatch and siege have console ports. But the pc versions are the only ones taken seriously. And you can't just say CS doesn't count cause you don't feel like it.

>tfw too poor to get a good setup like this let alone a good PC

>reddit spacing
>trying so hard to be "LE EPIC REDPILL" faggot

what a fucking retard. pc is literally the only proper way to play shooters. cod is heavy pc now and even their league is pc now, csgo, fortnite, pubg, valorant, etc.

actually a delusional brainlet.

Strike a nerve there, champ?

It's not, in fact it feels virtually identical to how it did 15 years ago, the only difference being the RGB lighting on the hardware which is optional. New consoles are what feel soulless compared to the classic ones.

less than 10% of cod players use PC

>watered down modern gaming
Stopped reading right there, your entire post is bullshit.

read again i was including them separate, point still stands as you.
your post is actually stupid and low iq.

PC gaming can have tons of soul though.

Nice pasta. I played Sekiro and RE2 remake last year which both made full use of my high end rig. Also emulation. If you want to emulate Switch/PS3 you need a top of the line CPU. This year has been dog shit as far as AAA releases go so you may be on to something, but I'm assuming as next gen comes around we'll get a deluge of new games that will make it worth owning a good rig.
