Console snobbery
For the past twenty years, for Russia it has become decisive in terms of choosing the main gaming platform. Due to the flowering piracy in the PC market, the availability of cheap games, most Russians moved to PC. But about ten years ago, when people’s incomes began to grow a bit, some gamers began to acquire consoles for themselves. It would seem that it is worthwhile to be happy for the brothers who can afford it, but in the end result, this resulted in a great confrontation between consolers and computer scientists.
In fact, there is no war of platforms in the country, the PC is still the main game platform for the majority. However, this does not interfere with conflicts between PC games and consolers. According to my observations, the instigators of these conflicts are more likely to become consolers, they perceive the PC as a machine for any processes, but not for games.
Many authors on articles and bloggers in YouTube speak out against the PC, believing that pcs are mainly playing poverty, because the games are cheaper there. They also attribute themselves to real gamers, since the console is a device only for games, has its own exluisivities and only behind the gamepad is the real gaming. And it would seem, to hell with them, let them play what they want, but annoying hypocrisy. Many of these console players themselves spent a lot of time for a PC, passing cheap toys, when they did not have money for consoles. But for some reason they try to forget this fact that it is something shameful.
Why this happens? Why you can’t treat players on different platforms with respect? Why do some consider themselves elite others? We will never have peace in this matter?
The best comments
Truly, arguing about the superiority of consoles and compactors, mice and gamepads, apples and androids, watermelons and melons will not be translated. And on both sides of the conflicts there are stubborn fanatics, and there are reasonable people on both sides who understand that all these issues are situational and resolved by each specific person specifically for themselves, and all options have their own merits and disadvantages. And here’s how people love each other because of them to strangle, kvaspdbozhe. Tin.
According to my observations, the instigators of these conflicts are more likely to become consolers
And according to my observations – on the contrary, more often bakers lift up. Why is it at all? Personal observations are personal observations, different people on different resources will meet different situations and views on topics. Since it went for that, then you can dig a little deeper, and see no less fierce battles between sonibos, billibodies and Nintendo fans. Or iOS/Android. Or BMW/Audi/Mercedes. People always need to argue about something and prove their innocence. And what is more important is to assert yourself and protect your choice. After all, if you have chosen a conditional Xbox, then precisely because it is better than the rest (let it and only for you), which means that it must be proved by others.
I myself am a sonboy who used to play PC. Although no now, no, I’ll go through some kind of game on your computer, let it be more likely when there is no choice: D because the console is better for me personally than the computer, and for me PlayStation is better than Xbox or Switch, and this choice of my choice has my personal reasons. But I still respect other platforms, I recognize their advantages and so on. And I also want us to all live peacefully and do not fight on this subject. But, lol, this is the Internet, there will never be such. People will always argue about something.
What is this blog about? Well, you voiced (in writing, Hu) your most popular observation that, they say, the console people do not consider PC a gaming device. Okay, but I myself will find such comments on only SG one hundred pieces. If this is a question to a community, then now, I answered it above. No matter how we wanted the world-friend-yellow, active users of the Internet will still find what to argue about, and this just needs to be accepted. Nothing to do with it. This is human psychology. It remains only to relax and chat with the Srash in the comments. It is even good on this side that all these disputes are. Without them it would be much more boring.
Plus) I always turn it off as much as possible: kills any atmosphere for me.
I think that with adaptive triggers there will be the same story as with gyroscopes: in one game of 10 at best, and then in the format of some mini-blouse. I mean classic gamepads – controllers did not count.
Another stuffing of shit to a fan from this author. What is the meaning of the srach? I had only dandy and sega from the consoles, which I really love. How PC appeared, only on it and play. There are different genres in which it is better to play on a certain input device and therefore I have a gamepad from boxing 360. The shocking thing I use in certain games.
There is no one super ideal one that the point is to fight? And to be proud of more expensive purchases extremely stupid thinking.
Games with support for this
Sorry, what? This is what such a strange world about the vibration gear of gamepads forgot in the middle of the generation? And what generation, given that since PS1 it appeared both, but not only that lives, but also evolves?
So everyone or you do not care?
And, of course, “if I do not eat fish and my friends do not eat fish, then no one eats fish”. Glorious logic!
It is precisely the consolers who https://nonukgamblingsites.co.uk/review/betfoxx/ often become my observations, the instigators of these conflicts, they perceive the PC as a machine for any processes, but not for games.
And how I watched?) How many test groups were with experimental consolers and pc shsniks?)
But seriously, with such a statement you start srach.
And you make this conclusion based on, because you just think so?
Four rabbis go through the park with one magnificent sunny day and argue on one old biblical theme. Three insist on one point of view, and the fourth, the youngest, on the other.
“I assure you, it was just like that,” the fourth does not cease to insist.
– Unbatient, and not cheerful, – the first three are indignant.
They argued for a long time until the fourth dares to ask for help from Gd:
– Tell them already, the Almighty, that I am right! Give a sign to whom they will definitely believe!
Suddenly, the clouds part, and from there the bright sun and voice from heaven: "He is right"!
This action forced the first three rabbis to stop, patting his eyes, but one of them said:
– All the same, three against two.
Since such a booze has gone, you can explain to me what is the charm of the vibration of the gamepad. It’s just for me this is just the opposite the minus tearing you out of the stream. An extra reminder that you are not behind the wheel now in the car, you do not aim from the rifle in the trench, do not control the character with a tired character, and t.D. And you sit in front of the TV with a banal gamepad in your hands. Another thing is when it is not, I generally forget about the manipulator completely immersing myself in the process. =)
Well, just as in addition to graphics, you see the monitor/walls of the room/surrounding the situation, also with the gamepad – when I am absorbed in the game, I do not think that my gamepad is trembling in my hands, I feel the tactile return: like the helicopter blades are hit in the air in the introx forces of MGS4, on what surface I go to DIRT: Rally, from which caliber Khrenachu in Borderlands/GTA V/RDR 2, if the game designer needs to feel how the hero feels something, but he doesn’t see or hear it, but some kind of chuke, he shakes the gamepad. Well, a bunch of other things, good vibration in the gamepad makes the game on the screen much more tactile.
If such a recoil is too much out of immersion, then it is some kind of too strong or the type of that, it seems to me.
So, the blog outlined the conflict, ancient and rather meaningless, cited evidence of its existence (though one and only one side of the barricades) and asked at the end of 3-4 questions for the expense of the public. Expectation. Comments appeared and the author of the blog decided either through Greek philosophers to look for the truth in disputes, or to assert himself once again, but one way or another I do not see conclusions from him. If the author ends the arguments, then the conversation ends.
Perhaps I will put this blog in the frame and I will look as an example of passive aggression. Attract people with catchy name and short text, and then a little toxic (in the sense that it is not too beautiful to respond with a monosyllabic proposal) to answer the comments – all this is practical, but quite aggressive. Let it lie on the shelf and is a warning for me. Yes, this is aggressive to the author of the blog, but also quite practical.
It remains to pirate indie))))
And in what place, excuse me? Well, yes, I didn’t put it quite correctly, I admit, but cling to the words (again, for the convenient for you, as I look) and you do not need to blame for a change. There is a completely obvious difference between games like 1-2-Switch with WII Sports, in which all the essence and all control are tied on movement, and some TLOU, where only a flashlight can be rechargeed. The former come out so rarely that they can be neglected, and even at the same time they are almost always exclusives of one platform. Most often – Nintendo. But the latter is already much more, let them anyway a little, because only the owners of PlayStation or Switch can evaluate these chips.
Most of the outgoing games are multi -platforms
And what confuses you? Multi -platform does not always mean that the distribution of resources by platforms during development is the same. It just usually happens that at first the developers are trying to ensure high -quality work of the game on the console, and only then on the PC. Not always, but often. Simply because it is usually for them to make the game work normally easier than on a thousand possible combinations of computer processors, video cards and other things. Plus a console is a giant market in terms of money, so here also in the interests of developers to make a quality product. I do not say that the PC is not in their interests – on the contrary, just taking into account more technical difficulties that bring the same or slightly less profit, this is not such a priority platform.
And so I catch you on the same thing that many others have already caught you. What’s here, what is in your previous blog about console in shooters. You write a paragraph about what you want to live in peace and do not fight, but at the same time you yourself make holivars, in which you constantly ignore the uncomfortable arguments of the other side and find fault with others, simply incorrectly formulated, thoughts, in order to at least somehow prove your innocence and assert yourself. You must definitely say something in contrast. Agree with at least one judgment is not an option at all. And I’m not even talking to myself – with Ivan Loev, for example, you also behave. This is not a healthy discussion – this is a srach in which both sides do not come to anything, remain with their own, but at the same time spend a bunch of their time and nerves. For a fuck, that’s all?
And it would seem, to hell with them, let them play what they want, but annoying hypocrisy.
Your words, by the way. The hypocrisy is really annoying.
And I’m all. I had fun, I have enough. You can assume that I merged if you are so convenient for you. I do not care. I can’t bring anything to you anymore, you haven’t convinced me either. Thanks for the "productive" conversation.
*pokes a finger*
I do not rejoice like a child, of course, but for me a good tactile feedback is very important. And I really like that the developers do not forget about vibration in gamepads and do not score on it.
Well, it seems yes, but as it were.
People themselves, the most broken fanboys, turn into religion. The company and its marketers have the main goal – to create exactly loyalty to the brand. But crazy fanaticism is already a personal matter for everyone.
I, for example, have apple cerebral puree, as the great. It’s easier to name Apple from what I don’t have, and I have been friends with apples for more than ten years. I’m a fan? Yes. But this does not prevent me from riding them, and not all their products and solutions are good. Airpods Max, for example, is complete crap, which is not worth it and a tenth of its price. Apple Watch is one of the most useless pieces of technology that I bought. But at the same time, there is no better smartphone for me than the iPhone, and the MacBook Pro is the best computer that I have ever bought, despite all its jokes. And this is not because I am an Apple fan, but because these devices are made as I like, and perform the functions I need as I like. Well, plus, I personally have iPhone and Mac have always worked much more stable than Android smartphones and Windows-computer. They are also not perfect, but for me they are much closer to the ideal than everything else. But here I will not paint in detail about this, otherwise the blog will work out: D
Switch has one important nuance: this is a portable. And today, as far as I know, is the only normal portable console in general. Of course it is weak, but you can take it with you. I can’t judge about the assembly, screen and battery, because I don’t have a rash, but the 15FPS games are rather exceptions. Yes, sometimes there are drawdowns below 30 frames, but here is the very fact that you have a big game with a home console in your pocket, somehow more important. No one says that it is best to play the same Doom Eternal on the switch – this is an objectively worst version of the game, but for, in fact, a smartphone with far from the newest iron, it still works very well. Moreover, the vast majority of people are not like geeks like you and I, and they are not at all interested in what kind of iron is there, and in a couple of cases of fragment of Framreta they do not pay attention. Although I agree about these all these Mario – I don’t understand at all that they are so cool that it is 12/10 every time and the game of the century. But here, again, the audience itself is important. There are people who do not like large AAA projects, and they need something simpler and more calm. Or the same fanatics who have simply convinced themselves that their favorite brand always makes the best things in the world. There are different people.
And Sony, in your opinion, generally stop your advertising campaign? Dualsense is one of the main PS5 chips, and this vibration with trigger you objectively do not get anywhere except the fifth “curling”. So they are promoting it. SSD in terms of technical specifications is also really cool – boxing does not have this, and they are extremely rare on PCs. Why they should not promote such features of their new console? Exclusions are not all assessed by 10/10. The same Days Gone, Knack, Concrete Genie. So, of all the PS4 exes, really high marks, sales and mention have received only a third of the games, if not less. And those that they received, most often really deserved it, because these are really good games. Why not let them out on other platforms? So these are exclusives that their task is to sell the platform. And with ports on PC they just increase profits. On PS4, the same Horizon Zero Dawn, 4 years after the release, will no longer be sold in millions of print runs, but a noise rose to the PC, which is why the game rushed to buy a lot of people. Given the low costs of porting, the game brought Sony more money, but at the same time its priority task in the form of advancement of the console also completed. All in winning. And about the fact that “the game is no longer a masterpiece, but a middle peasant” also yell only individuals, most often the same beaten fans. I am a sonboy in life, and I really love Horizon, and when he went to a PC, I was only glad, because now even more people can be checked up by such a cool game. At the same time, the sales console itself are still huge. The same Horizon – more than 10 million copies, Uncharted 4 – more than 20 million, and so on.
Again, the main task that the company sets and its marketing department is to create loyalty to the brand. Convince people to buy their product and use their services. The best ways for this are advertising and word of mouth. Advertising most often shows the advantages of the product – that is, it gives arguments why you need to buy this particular thing. And word of mouth is already a more personal experience. If a friend tells you that he likes the thing that he recently bought, then it becomes more interesting for you, which is why the probability that you will buy it too. Whether to continue to buy the goods of this brand further is your choice, and to make an idol and the object of worship from this brand is also your choice. The brand itself is only trying to convince you that it is you who you have to give your money. If someone is trying to avoid honest competition, then antimonopoly authorities usually pay attention to this, and no one needs problems with the law. In addition to obvious fines or other sanctions, it is also poor publicity and a big minus to reputation. Therefore, everyone has an advertisement in which there is nothing bad. Advertising – this is honest competition. Mostly. When one brand does not try to expose another in a bad light.
Here you are specifically, or something, pass the parts of my comments with which it is not convenient for you to prove your opinion? I just said that in the games with all sorts of mowers, they always turn off in the settings. Plus, given the same controller interface on Xbox and Windows, and it is also the desire of Microsoft to build its Xbox ecosystem, they may well integrate the auto -determination of the presence of a gyroscope into this interface. If it is not in the controller, then the mouse-poluhi are blocked automatically. But the point is not even that.
Here, the priority is not a PC, but Xbox, because just there are all 50+ million people play on Xbox-gamepads. Yes, now they have no gyroscopes, but imagine that they have appeared. And so, now on boxes many millions of people have gamepads with a motion sensor. Exactly like PlayStation and Switch. Accordingly, the developers are more motivated to enable movement support on Xbox. They turn on on Xbox – it means that it will automatically include on Windows, this is the essence of a single interface. Further things are already behind him. You play boxing with the old gamepad – the movement is disconnected. On a PC with a Chinese piece of plastic – disconnected. In a case with a gyroscope on a box or PC – inclusive. And this is not the developer of the game, but Xinput (or DirectinPut, I don’t remember what is there). The developer only makes actions with the movement, but whether they are already included or not – not their concern.
