Pc gamers when their 350$ handheld laptop has a bigger library, more backwards compatibility, and cross platform access without any monthly subscriptions.

Don’t forget the mods, console fanboys only get their approved mods while PC gets the wild west experience

Don’t forget console commands to work around a bug in a quest. Or summon items. Or respawn accidentally killed NPCs.

If I can’t play stalker gamma on it it’s basically worthless

I can pirate very easily too - probably saved me about $3k in game costs alone while still having a way larger legit library than 99% of Consol owners

I’ve had three gaming PCs and spent maybe $10K in computer parts in the last fifteen years. I know I’ve definitely saved more than that versus having a console.

If you got every major console of one manufacturer during those 15 years you’d have like 3 consoles. That’s less than 2k

The only thing denuvo has done was delay games a bit for me.

why is denuvo hard to remove tho?
yeah, there are a lot of traps embeeded in obfuscated code (a total mess and really hard to reverse engineer)
… but in the end it still has to interface with some service to check for license ownership or obtain some sort of token for decryption, why not hook that or find a way to reuse tokens across multiple machines?
