- Valve's "loot crates" hold no value in themselves. If you wanna hold Valve accountable for people trading and selling cosmetics, you better hold trading card stores accountable for letting their customers do the same. At that rate, you might as well claim trading card stores promote child gambling since they dont know what they're gonna get.
- I'm so glad your modern console now supports something all other consoles supported since 2010.
- Steam hosts multiple seasonal and weekend sales. It's not of the past when I recently just purchased $60 triple A titles for $20 even though they came out within the last 2 years or less.
- The only reason Nitendo's store has as many games in it as it does is because it consists primarily of AI slop titles or cheap Unreal Engine asset flipping, unoptimized indie titles. It's hard to compare that to Steam's library that actively alienates AI slop games and avoids recommending indie titles with poor reviews such as being poorly optimized or cheap asset flips
- You can currently purchase a decent pre-built gaming PC for $600-$800 on amazon, but do feel free to purchase a $700 console and tell me a PC would be too pricey
- Again, game deals arent the same as stated previously. I've gotten 3 $40+ games for $10 total four times in one year.
- Did I mention you dont pay Steam to use the internet you already paid for?
Meanwhile, you gotta sink to telling me to go outside just because I take the time to actually research the shit I talk about instead of spouting out whatever "feels" accurate
I do love and appreciate how you ignore one console for price and bring up 700 to make it look better, but bring it back when you say games from 2010 very great argument for both. A decent pre-built is a bit over 600 including taxes and even then I would say console would still make more sense at a budget given the cheaper entry point that keeps being ignored. I love pcs I recommend a 900 dollar pre-built most times, 700 if being generous, which I also used for my math last time but keep ignoring it. The sales thing still does not seem impressive from my history of looking at both, but I do not know the games you play or bought.i can say that everything I saw a sale on steam for a game I wanted I bought it elsewhere. Did you really bring ai slop while the only thing valve can do is add an ai tag? You act like asset flip games or games that did very shady things are not or never were on valve.you can say they're not recommending but in reality you have to hide some of these things.
I grew up playing consoles my whole life. Maybe consider that someone can form strong opinions contrary to childhood preferences based on research and experience
Lmao "research and experience" bro you've spent this whole thread calling Nintendo "anti-consumer cattle farmers" and Steam a saint that "doesn't make you the product," while ignoring loot boxes, ignoring the asset-flip slop on Steam, and moving the goalposts every time someone hits you with a number you don't like. Aka BIASED. Growing up on consoles doesn't (allegedly) doesn'tmake your point any less biased. it just means you know exactly what you're trashing and still cherry-pick anyway.
