they all do the same shit, mostly on android (which has better battery life etc than x86 PC style systems). Its just the processor, screen, and form factor mostly

Phil is a powerless Gen Xer. Console Tabloids have it that his Woman CFO is raking him over the coals and is driving the price increases. His Indian CEO just wants shit in the Cloud asap. He’s just a Gen Xer in a T shirt and Sportcoat, anachronistically trying to hold onto the spirit of violent western titles like Gears, Corpse Killer, and Mortal Kombat. Women outrank Losers. Indians outrank Gen X.

Losers — many of whom don’t even like Xbox — have been telling me for years that Gamepass is a Success and that MSFT is a “trillion dollar company, champ.” Both xo and gamefaqs used the same tired arguments, insisting gamepass was a success just because MSFT is $3,000,000,000,000k: https://www.xoxohth.com/thread.php?thread_id=5767725&mc=19&forum_id=2

The only thing that would’ve turned the tide for them was making COD exclusive, and the democratic caucus wouldn’t allow it.

It's amazing they never went all in on xbox being a PC for poors. Include an xbox branded keyboard and mouse. Put RGB lights in it and a window on the case. Put Microsoft Office on there. Have Fortnite preinstalled. Scum would eat it up. Mexicans would think it's a real Computer. Sony would have been in ruins.

That’s what they’re trying do…. You could just have Xbox branded pre-built optimized for Gaming. Which is what the ROG is but ffs what about PC gaming goes with playing on the go? Every legit PC game uses a Mouse…

Fundamentally not true. Most PC games are controller first these days. The only exceptions are RTS and maybe competitive FPS. But does anyone really play Cyberpunk, GTA, Clair Obscure, FF, etc. with a mouse and keyboard?

I’m talking about actual PC games with more complex gameplay like RTSs and WoW raids with tons of hot keys. Or even FPV RPGs like Skyrim. Also any FPS, not just “competitive.”

If you bought a PC to play indie games or Console ports then good for you I’m sure you’re a lot of fun at Parties

New RPGs are overwhelmingly controller centric at this point.

Skyrim came out in 2011 (almost 15 years ago) - and most probably still play it on controller. WoW is several DECADES old at this point. GW Bush was POTUS when it came out.

I'm almost done with Clair Obscure now. I have both a 5090 in my laptop and Nvidia GeForce Now (gives me a 5080 desktop cloud rig). I overwhelmingly play with an Xbox Elite Series 2 controller.

I guess I just don’t get it, PC gamers are supposed to play Better Games, not just console games with not even demanding specs… If you’re a shrewd Nerd and want to play StarCraft, a bit of Halo, games with mods, and are Liberal so TLOU2, all on one machine, more power to you, but I guess I just don’t get the modern PC gamer playing Silksong and depression quest with a 5090.

Pretty much all major games are cross-platform now. They run at much higher fidelity on PC. This isn't even new and based on your listed games you seem to mostly play shit from decades ago (Starcraft? TLOU2?).
