I have no idea what you just said.

Most games you just click play and they work. You don't need to install drivers or programs or whatever you think everytime at all.

If they release a dodgy patch or one you don't like, you can just revert it. On console you are stuck with whatever they give you.

Don't like a game after a couple hours? Doesn't work correctly? Refund it.

Mainly its linux that will have issues you have to navigate and that is probably where most of the technical questions you come across root from. If you have Windows then 99% of games will just work as you expect.

  • Batman: Arkham Knight

  • Assassin's Creed Unity

  • Battlefield 4

  • Homefront: The Revolution:

  • Forza Horizon 3

  • Total War: Rome 2

All high profile games, all had my social media feeds full of PC gamers complaining about how they ran like shit on their 4,000 dollar PCs.

You say you don't know what I'm talking about, but then list every single hoop I'm trying to avoid with the tagline of 'just jump through them!'.

I've only played two of them and they worked just the same as any other game. You are putting words into my mouth now, I refuted every 'hoop' you listed, I never said 'just deal with it'.

I could build a pc, give it to anyone and it would work in the same vein as a console. What is the point you are trying to make? That PCs have loads of issues? The consoles are flawless? Make sense.

These dingleberries aren't going to get it....Im the one true gamer master race, I play everything on all consoles and PC, phone, handheld etc... PC is fun and there are games you need a mouse and keyboard to play ...but I also just want to turn on my Xbox sometimes, and sit on the couch and not have to open Bluetooth to connect a controller, or make sure steam and the GPU and the games are up to date.

If you notice the operating system then it's not doing a good job of being an operating system.
