I like to play my games on hardware that I picked out and put together personally. Also I like that hardware to be using an OS of my choosing with as much expandable storage as I could possibly want.
Also, I don’t like to give my money to companies that encourage exclusivity on their hardware.
Yeah, if you enjoy the process of fiddling around with your system and installing cool new drivers and programs to get your game running then PC gaming is better no doubt.
You are paying hundreds of dollars to avoid minor driver issues that most people don’t even face. That’s your choice, but I can’t say that I see the sense in it.
I spent 2 grand on the PC that gives me minor driver issues that only I experience. The hundreds of dollars I spent on the Xbox that works just like everyone else’s Xbox seems like a bargain to me.
Typically they still have performance issues though? I haven’t played on consoles since Xbox 360, other than the odd Nintendo game. I spent thousands of dollars on 360 and PS3 games and hardware and have none of it now. But my entire PC library is still playable.
I’m with ya. When it’s gaming time, I just want it to work. I don’t want to be fiddling with settings constantly.
That being said, I do prefer RPGs and RTSs much more with a keyboard and mouse, so I’ll usually play those on my computer, but that’s not such a problem any more with keyboard and mouse being supported by consoles.
Just buy a gaming PC.
I like to play my games knowing the developers optimized it for exactly the hardware I’m playing on.

I just want to turn the game on and play though
You make it sound like any of that is difficult or extremely time consuming, which it isn’t. The payout far exceeds the price for entry.
I do PC game, so let me give you a counterpoint:
I have GeForce Experience which manages my drivers, but after a windows update awhile back suddenly the updates fail at like 80%, no idea why.
Now I’m just barely smart enough that I could probably fix it if I sat down for an hour or two and did some googling.
But why would I do that? I can just hit the power button on my Xbox and not have to troubleshoot an obscure problem.

you just need to do that once
Both major consoles literally have multiple versions with differing performance lmfao
As opposed to PC which has infinite variations

Now the games are attached to your windows and Sony accounts so they’ll follow you around as much as steam games do

Totally, mouse and keyboard are very clutch for those genres
