Honestly? It's the stupidly smug attitude. I mean you could be having a great discussion, and chatting it up then BLAM - "I don't see why fanboys get all serious about consoles. I mean we all know that a good gaming PC is far beyond the dross that is consoles... Blah... Blah... Blah" Like why would you bring that nonsense up? If the thread is about Xbone vs PS4 why are you talking about PCs? If the thread is about why FPS feels stale why talk about PCs? If the thread is about the beginning of the universe... why are you talking about PCs? It's annoying and unproductive and elitist and that's why folks just don't want to deal with it or really anyone with a PC.
FPS games are not only on consoles. Many Xbox and PS4 games are also released on the PC. If I've only played the PC version, then I'll talk about the PC version. If I've played both and enjoyed one more, I'll tell why.If the thread is about why FPS feels stale why talk about PCs?
I'd have to completely agree with this. I've seen elitists in both... a lot. Even PC gamer to PC gamer, there are elitists. A lot of people, not everyone of course, focus on the whole group rather than just the elitists.I play all platforms, but I tend to see a lot of elitism from PC gamers. The PC might allow mods, better graphics and sometimes steadier framerate, and overall more options, but constantly reminding people why the console is inferior makes you look insecure. Consoles have perks as well, so I don't really get why there are so many PC elitists. Still, not every PC gamer is a twit, so go after the elitists in particular; they exist on consoles as well.
I don't hate PC gamers, and we don't PC game because honestly, as expensive as a console can be, a really DECENT gamer PC would cost us a lot more, if we wanted one that could do what we'd want it to do. That's pretty much it.
