It's certainly become more mainstream with the advent of Youtube ecelebs and the relentless shilling of memer streamer bait like that literally who game or any of the 25 variants that have been released in the past couple of years.

You accidentally a step. Do you know what twitch is for, memes aside? It's for watching games. Not playing games.

I still watch Dota2 occasionally, although I haven't played it in several years. On my PC, I typically replay Master of Orion 2, Cataclysm DDA, and Aurora 4x. How does that tie in with your theory on the " "normie" platform "?

Holy shit dude. I was agreeing with you when I said that, that's why I WOULDN'T argue it with you. If I thought otherwise I WOULD want to argue. So once again, what's your point? I'd still call it flavor of the month when everyone will move to the next online multiplayer, while others will stay and play the game. The game certainly has some longevity.

Can we finally accept that PC has the better exclusives? Once you are done playing another sony formula third person action game you got nothing to play for another half year. There are NO, NOT a single one good PS4 exclusive multiplayer titles. On PC you have dozens of games you can easily sink over a thousand hours into, wether those are multiplayer titles with huge replayability like Arma 3, Squad, Red Orchestra 2, Rising Storm 2; Vietnam, Dota 2, CSGO, PUBG, Rust, Project Reality or even Garrysmod. Then there is super deep genres like grand strategy, 4x or strategy games which are also insanely replayable. You won't find a single console exclusives with replayvalue past 30 hour or so.

This. I could only see myself watching live tournaments, but not a bunch of similarly or worse skilled players. I also even get watching speedrunning, but you're not getting that with the top 10, even top 50 games on Twitch
>>
>>377290414
Consolefags are simply pissed by the fact they cant play thousands of hours by a free to play/10 bucks game that will run on ANY computer. They must spend 60$ for every 60/100 hours they can enjoy before getting bored. Let alone the paid multiplayer services.
>>
>>377290789
speedruns are top comfy to watch when you're eating something
>>
>>377290515
When you call a game flavor of the month it essentially means it's a sleeper hit. No one was anticipating its release or was expecting it to top charts. Also, if the game continues to have one gajibillion players in the future I would not consider it to be flavor of the month beyond the initial month of release.

Not him but

Anyone can """"afford"""""" it
Most people can't afford it.

I bet half the people who say are you poor have less than $10k in savings
>>
>>377288789
That's because these are all multiplayer games. Most single player games are usually only watched upon initial release and quickly decline in interest and the only other reason to watch them is for speedrunning in which older games seem to have more popularity than more recent titles. That and older titles are much more easily accessible due to the amount of resources for them.
>>

How does it feel to live in 3rd world shit country? I'll give you example of uk since its where Im residing. There is cex for example, used xbone is like 140, you can even find one with ton of games on gumtree for that price, games are cheap as shit used. Same with ps4. Now look at what pc would cost to make for high end 1080p gaming. 970 is like 140£ avg used on ebay, decent cpu below 100£, monitors they give away for free because of recycling pay. Also paid mp - ps+ and xbox gold is like 35£ a year which is like 5hour pay even on minimum wage and you get a ton of games for 2 or in sonys case - 3 consoles . Its not even funny how cheap gaming is unless you're stuck in shithole.
Pic releated is example what I bought and for what recently.

Lol why must i be on a third world country. Im just putting the two things side to side. Also, i got a x370 mobo, ryzen 1700x, evga 1080 and a 1440p@144hz acer predator monitor, call me poor but i can run any game at best settings for my setup. Im just saying that the most played games on pc are just games anyone who has a pc can play, and if this one of the reasons they have the biggest playerbase, people can still put into them thousands of hours they have something that none of the console games have, competitive play and a generally toxic but very active community totally for free. On the other hand, consoles offer nothing than 100 hours of enjoyable content per 'AAA' game.
>>
>>377292148
>next thing we know people will start watching football games, too

Shit analogy, garbage like heartstone requires literally nothing to play, while even the shittiest football game requires both effort and people, that's why watching games is way more pathetic.
>>
>>377292325
Not everyone wants or gives a fuck about competwtive scene really. You buy fallout 4 for example, complete it and put 100hours into it, get dlc, more hours, sell the game and on to the next one. Theres nothing wrong with that. Playing one game for hundreds of hours like cs:go, mobas etc seems pretty boring imo. To each his own, but degrading consoles because they have a vide variety of games to keep you engaged is pretty dumb.
>>
>>377289064

It's usually a mainstream game that is popular on twitch, a game you knew about because everyone on twitch plays it, a game that people buy just to steam it online, most of the time with a large esports or eceleb audience.

But pc has a bigger game library, a much bigger game library. Ranging from AAA games to 1$ games. I dont personally care if they are exlusives or ports. Im not degrading people who like playing different games, i personally do, i've put thousands hours on competitive, but also i play hundreds of hours on other titles. Im degrading people who shit on the most active communities in the whole gaming scene and think consoles are better purely because they get some exclusives or because consoles are 'cheaper' (you can get a pc for the same price point who will run more or less the same experience as a console because sony/microsoft DONT gift their hardware) which are usually a 60$/60 hour content, pc also offer this option.

this meme £500 won't run this game (or any new AAA) for sure, you need at least add 250-350 more to build something better with intel as cpu and gtx 1060 6gb/580 at least.

DOTA2 etc are utter shit and getting stuck for 1h 30 min on a single match with bunch of russians and losing... It's not fun or worth.

CSGO is ever changing as it is very tactical. It's not a 'shooter' but a tactical puzzle game. Multiplayer makes it pretty fun and matches are short so you can drop in and actually get out too. Unlike DOTA2 where your ass grows mold.

I hate Valve and everything Valve related though. STEAM is unnecessary evil and it's getting worse every day. Intrusive DRM, it's not that much different from Windows 10 and fucking Facebook - they log EVERYTHING and use it to sell shit to you.

It rans everything I threw at it in 2k or 4k maxed out. Ds3(4k max 60fps), Surge (4k 30fps max), Prey(2k high 60fps), gta v(4k very high 40fps), re7 4k max 60fps. So yeah. For 130£ thats pretty decent I would say.
Card also has year warranty

PC "was" also the "normie" plateform with WoW, Sims, or Little People in Computer.
The reality is PC is a gathering of many many more type of players than console.
A console fag may care about every exclusive of its plateform, because it cater to a relatively identic audience.
A PCfag caring at the same time about The Sims, Arma 3, DCS, League of Legend and Heartstone?
fat chance.

I was polarizing but for me ~60 minutes is too long and I'm not fun of MOBAs as such. Some people really love them but I'm not one of them.

PUB is that early access game that will just never ever be finished or optimized and it's so fucking obvious but people keep falling for this anyway. In a year or two when the updates stop, then the review scores turn to shit, but then people go and fall for the next optimized ugly early access game with promises of improvement anyway. I'm just wondering when my Steam friends are going to latch onto it and beg me to join, the same ones that still praise War Z under its new name today.

Has always been until smartphones came up.

If you think the majority of PC gamers care about ultra realistic sims or care about console ports or any of this shit, you've been living a lie. The great majority of games are toaster games for a reason.

PC gaming exists because everybody own some sort of PC and if they wanted some quick pass time, PC gaming was there for them. Only with smartphones this status quo has been challenged.

Mainstream PC games(read: the ones that get views on Twitch) are for the PC master race redditor faggots. These people usually just recently jumped over to PC midway through last gen, or right at the beginning of this gen. They won't play anything but console ports, esports garbage, and the current flavor of the month streambait game. They might as well still be consolefags.

No. PS4 is.
Every normie faggot I know owns a PS4 to play GTAV, CoD and other multiplats with their buddies. Only a small handful of PS4 owners are weebfags who bought one for the exclusives
But yes PC gaming has been steadily growing for the past few years, mainly because the latest console gen has been so lackluster I reckon.

I'm in the "bought a console for exclusives category".

Most appeal in games these days is for online multiplayer so unless your exclusive title has some kind of highly entertaining co-op mode it instantly loses out the the titles listed in the OP because they're much easier to access and in some cases F2P.

I don't find there being that much replayability in games these days. That and the fact that enjoy playing games with others much more entertaining.

The introduction of things such as XBL made it so much easier to play multiplayer with friends and these days it seems that most people can't play without that sort of social interaction.

>>
>>377305973
Yeah. Look how they care about the console versio-
ho!
CSGO happened because Source was getting outdated. So they developped it with taking note of what went right or wrong with TF2 (crates, skins, you name it), and with a focus on esport.
