Due to some of the recent targeted attacks against Lemmy.world, I noticed that the image I shared with this post was purged from their servers.
Here’s a new screenshot of the results for posterity: https://i.postimg.cc/jqNg5gWx/pcmrsurvey.png
As a PC enthusiast my main gripe has always been the lack of choice over performance options. I want the choice between higher fidelity or higher framerates. The new generations of consoles have included this option, and it is awesome. I also like how newer generation hardware has been able to run the older games it is compatible with at higher fidelity AND higher framerates, bringing the hardware improvements to those older games and increasing their lifespan/playability.
How do PC games not have this choice? The settings are usually way more granular.
What are you on about? I never said or even alluded to PC games not having settings… its pretty clear and obvious that I am talking about consoles when I mention consoles gaining a particular feature.

This sentence can pretty easily be read as if you’re saying PC games don’t offer a choice between fidelity and framerates. I get what you’re saying, and it makes sense in context, but I don’t blame someone for thinking you were talking about PC games there.
