PlayStation 5 Pro Could Be the Best Place to Play Multiplatform Games With Bad PC Ports; There Will Be No Reason to Use FSR Over PSSR

Consoles just work and I'll give you a perfect example.

PSVR 2 vs PCVR

Everything with PSVR 2 works every single time with zero issues.

PCVR is way more of a hassle.

PCVR has amazing benefits like mods and a bigger library....but ease of use is not one of them.

It's partially why I'm soooo excited for PS5 Pro.

This may be slightly tangential, but the stutter on some PC ports is often wildly overstated, particularly by the console defense force. The idea that it's a nail biting dice roll as to whether or not a PC game is going to have frame spikes and out of control stuttering is absolute bullshit and wild, rampant cope.

The PS5 Pro will be a fine addition if you already own the 20 or so games that it currently supports. The idea that it will magically be 'the best place to play multiplatform games' is hilariously absurd, and the conviction with which people are seriously considering the idea makes it even funnier.

I haven't got stuttering with my main build.
I do get countless cheating in multiplayer games which is one of the reasons in most cases I find the console versions superior.

Well not everyone is in the same boat. PC gaming today is easy. And like i said, even for a newbie, there are almost zero problems that cant be fixed with a Google search.

Yes we are it's just some deal with them better than others.
Like myself.

It is easy though but not for everyone.
Needing to Google any issue automatically makes it more problematic than consoles.

How is that a bad thing?

PC game has issues, you Google the solution and might be able to fix it.

Console game has issues, well shieeeeeeet.

Paranoid or not, these components aren't so fragile that they'll break down just for staying on in idle for some hours.

Yeah I'm not risking a house fire. The components themselves lasting is the part I worry least about (used to keep my old machines up almost 24/7 at times).

GAF is a niche of a niche. I'm talking about the real world. How many players do you think actually give a crap about those minimal stutters DF fishes out that people post here? Or get ocd about having to turn every option in the graphics settings to the max? Theres a reason why console players dont complain about stutters despite tests showing a lot of those "bad pc ports" often have the same problems on the console version (sillent hill 2 being the newest one). Because the average console player doesn't notice nor gives a shit, neither does the average PC player that goes on to give very positive reviews to these games.

I wasn't talking about GAF tho, just go into the steam community page for every big AAA game that actually pushes graphics and you will see what I mean.

Dude i'm sorry but the last problem i encountered was a blue screen about 2 months ago, and a simple reboot fixes that. Cant even remember the last time i had a problem before that.

I do look after my PC though, which a lot of people dont.

Weird, I don't get 'countless cheating'. It's almost like 'they were cheating!' is a convenient cover when you just suck at games.

Here's some more of that gaslighting bullshit.

Cheating absolutely exists, and you're more likely to see it on games with larger player bases. There are a ton of COD and Elden Ring cheating compilations on YouTube because it's not uncommon.

There's nothing 'gaslighting' about it. Stop talking like a woman.

I haven't seen the rampant 'cheating' that idiots on here love to babble about. It's once in a while. It comes with the territory. The idea that OMG I CANT PLAY A GAME WITHOUT CHEATERS THAT IS WHY I MUST GIVE SONY MY MONEY is absolute, 100% bullshit.

Literally the only thing backing your argument up is that you "feel" that tons of players share PCs. None of the things I listed is irrelevant when trying to estimate hardware figures for PC gamers. The most telling number is Nvidia discrete yearly GPU sales. Somehow they manage to ship 30-40 million GPUs each year (excluding AI, professional, laptops, and datacenter cards) and yet ~200 million monthly Steam PCs is somehow completely unbelievable.

It's not my argument to back. I'm questioning using MAU to estimate hardware sales numbers and I've given the reason why you can't do this. That's not "a feeling" that's a very obvious flaw in methodology, the fact that I hypothesise it can be significant is a feeling that you disagree with but you've provided no quantifiiable evidence one way or the other. This 30-40 million that excludes laptops, datacenters, "professional" (how would they even know if I use it to mine or for 3dsmax?) and AI, what's the source of this? That is a more reliable method, looking at actual sales.

You haven't seen it so it doesn't exist. You're a fucking moron.

I said that it exists, you illiterate fucking ape. I said that your claims that it's some kind of rampant, widespread issue are fucking garbage.

But, you watch cringe compilations on Youtube, therefore you know what you're talking about, right? Fuck off.

There are a lot of console only gamers on here that think PC gaming is still like it was back in the 90's.
Today PC gaming is barely more complicated than console gaming, and nearly as 'plug and play.
Any difficulty is quickly learned once you go PC only, and i have NEVER come accros a problem that a simple Google search didnt fix.

The benefits greatly outway any shortcomings when it comes to PC gaming. The freedom is just impossible to ignore, and hard to go back to rigid console gaming once going PC only.

Also the 'I'm a couch gamer' excuse is so lame. I have had my PC permanently conncected to my TV for literally years now, and i even control my PC through an Xbox controller lol.

To each their own. I do love the performance of games on PC but the rest was crap. Why do some of my game icons look like shit in Steam big picture mode (especially older games)? Why does the resolution look like shit in steam big picture mode? Why does me adjusting the resolution make my trophy notifications tiny as shit in big picture mode. Why is my controller disconnecting in steam big picture mode? Why can't I easily minimize the game and go talk to my friends in discord with a controller? Why is my game crashing cause I minimized to join a discord? Why cant I easily type in my name in a steam game with my controller for game that is requesting it? Why is exiting a game such a process on Steam still?

I really tried but the shit is annoying and while you might have no trouble googling shit for your issues I have limited time and I'm not wasting in troubleshooting anything.

You're right. The PC isn't for you. Stick to your consoles, you've been filtered.

Pcs are more tedious my man it's definitely gonna be the best looking version assuming you have the proper hardware to back that but it's not worth the hassle or price for me to see a water reflection one mile in the distance lol I was 75% mainly pc gaming until about 2015 I remember the days pcs weren't even streamlined and legit could be annoying but the insane differences and advantages they had over console games made it 100% worth it...just not that anymore but enjoy your advanced ray tracing

It's true. I can turn a Playstation on by slobbering on a controller in a drunken stupor. It's 'easier'.

If you honestly find using a PC 'a hassle' in 2024, I don't even know what to tell you. I must be some kind of fucking super genius because I know how to click on a button in Windows.

I'm saying comfort for what you get also the price...do you remember when battlefield on pc made the xbox360 version look a generation or 2 behind?? That was worth the "hassle" but yeah if you want the Uber graphics you definitely got it

Using nonsense words like 'gaslighting' as a way of pearl clutching, instead of just being a man and saying 'I disagree with you and fuck you if you don't like it'.

Any other questions, Cindy?

My god dude. You're an absolute twat of a dickhole. Be nice to someone for once in your life and you'll probably have a better life overall.

PS - I disagree with you, and fuck you if you don't like it... you fucking prick-ass bitch.

Just some water reflection? What about the free online, being able to access the game's files and it's saves to do whatever, the community patches, the mods, the custom servers, the miriad of exclusives, being able to use whatever gamepad/peripheral you want, the back-compatibility, being able to enjoy your new hardware update without having to wait for a patch, emulation, being able to set the graphics how you like instead of choosing between 2 or 3 modes that might not even let you disable shit like motion blur or chromatic aberration, etc plus all the non-gaming stuff you can do on a PC that you can't on a console.

I still don't know who you are, other than someone who has so little self-esteem as to say 'twat of a dickhole' in public.

Put me on ignore, you stupid shit.
