They can steal your data if you're logged into a PSN account, and down the line the plan (which they don't want to admit) is to get PC players paying for a multiplayer subscription like on console.

There's no such thing as non-political, whoever told you there was such a thing is a con artist.

Fucking antisemites. Why won't they let people wave the flag of the Semitic nation of Palestine? Classic Nazi antisemitism.

isn't optimising the games extra costly?

These days compilers can optimise it for the hardware mostly on their own.

I can imagine the annoyance of getting bad reviews on steam because some Dingus is trying to play the game on a 10 year old PC.

Yeah, that's the great thing about PC. You don't have to upgrade your hardware more than once a decade, and you can give feedback to games publishers that chasing ever increasing graphics trends is alienating their customers. You console gamers have to take whatever slop you're given, but us PC gamers don't have to worry about a publisher not supporting backwards compatibility, so we have more market power. We can apply greater pressure on the industry to apply pro-consumer business practices.

Also, something like 30% of PC gamers pirate their games

That's definitely not true. I wish it was.

I don't want Christians to love me. I think it's sexual harassment.

You can still get a job as a security guard today.

Nah, readability is low and you can't divide by three OR five easily. Binary has even fewer prime factors than decimal.

Yeah but who wants a Nazi as their ISP?

tbf that is also how I feel about mice.
