Quit complainin about the PC and get to work on you PS4 games.

You need to put your name on Carson's List so you can play Resident Evil 7 in PSVR.

I think it's moreso that the PC market has been saturated with indie and early access games, and that it's lacking the same type of big games on consoles recently.

Which big games (sans console exclusives) aren't on PC? Most of the big console games are available on PC too so it's not like those games are pushing AAA off Steam/PC. I don't really see how this is "wrong". A lot of the games OP listed are only available on PC. I've played about 8 hours of Dead Cells and it's amazing. If it was available now on PS4 I'd be playing it there. But PS4 doesn't have an Early Access program.

The "big" release have been so so games, and there haven't been many so far. This has been the worst game release year at this point that I can remember from both lack of releases and the release of sub par games and te comment about indie and the "beta test my game" games is dead on.

Are you saying this is the worst year for PC games? I strongly disagree. Battlegrounds is one of the most popular new games at the moment and it's a PC Early Access game. Also, as I've previously mentioned, Dead Cells is a great playing game even in Early Access. The core gameplay and feel is there but it's missing some minor features. But hey, it's $15 so I can forgive that and will check in every few months until release date.

Also your opinion is determined by which genres you like. If you're into FPS military shooters or 4X strategy games, then I totally see your point.

You listed 2 Early Access games. Hell, that is the point. Actual REAL releases have underwhelmed.

Proving his point is the fact he bought an adapter so he can play console games with his keyboard and mouse. If PC was flourishing, he wouldn't have done that.

I've been PC only for years and I broke down and bought a PS4 because I wasn't interested in the selection so far this year. ME4 underwhelmed.

I agree with him. PC sucks so far.

Am I facing an uphill battle because this guy is a doofus? I don't read the board as much anymore so am I wasting my time responding to him?

The real question here is how many of these games allow you to bind your own keys?

Uh, isn't console exclusives the definition of all of the games not on PC?

I mean, it's pretty fair to criticize PC given the past 4 months of games for consoles.

So far PC only stuff for this year has been down no doubt.

But what I love about PC, is for some reason I play the games that I love on that platform exponentially longer than games on console.

I kept thinking of games in the blizzard family that felt new but then realized they had been out for quite sometime, but I am still really enjoying them.
