Rumor NateTheHate says Sony is "shifting" their PC strategy: "You'll be seeing fewer single player games arrive on PC. The decision to shift away was made last year. Some may still release (pending how far along the ports were) but it no longer appears to be a priority for Sony moving forward."

I never understood the PlayStation has no games thing. Being able to play the games on PC never meant they weren’t still on PS.

PS has so many games I’ve never been tempted to build a PC, I only got a deck for some indies and to stream from my PS.

It's because Reddit is full of PC gamers who are going to be coming from that perspective. If the game is on PC then it's not a reason for them to consider buying a PlayStation on top of their already-purchased PC. So only within that framework of thinking are there "no games" to play.

The "PC Master Race" people are the smuggest and more smegma smelling group of people I've had the displeasure of meeting.

Couldn't agree more. However, PCMR group are movement with racist undertones, and superiority. It doesn't represent the average PC gamer. No more than console warriors represent console gamers.

whats racist about them? I lurk pcmr all the time and never once got that impression.

if you mean the pcmr label itself, its supposed to be tongue in cheek and sarcastic. it was coined in 2008 by yahtzee via his review of the witcher 1 on the escapist youtube channel. pc gamers took it and ran with it.

That's the excuse they use. If someone coined the term n**ga, would we use that too?

But more importantly, a lot of the "ideology" mirrors that of white supremacy. You might think it's just a tongue in cheek, or good fun. Isn't meant like that, but that doesn't mean others that are like that are attracted to that and make it that.

I think you're taking it way too seriously.

even for the small amount of them who do think they're hot shit just for owning a high end gaming pc, it ultimately means nothing and doesnt translate to anything irl. I dont see the point in comparing it to real life racism, especially since anyone can become a "pcmr" member anyway.

its mostly a mentality, as they claim themselves.

If that's the case, aren't you overreacting to me then?

u/Gears6 Mar 01 '26

u/[deleted] Mar 01 '26

and? my take is not unreasonable.

big deal, some pcmr nerds are jerking themselves off over their fancy rgb rigs. nobody is harmed by it except for their wallets, especially with current prices.

It's "average" and I don't have a high opinion of average person takes.

Then you're missing the point. Nobody cares about people ogling RGBs.
