this is like saying I bet there more people with a 200X Civic than a 2013 civic.
Saying that the average person doesn't care about tweaking is misinformed, how do you want to go forward since you can't argue against it?

PC gaming is bigger. There are more people familiar with how to edit settings on a PC than you guys want to acknowledge, hell I just helped a kid in India get Swift on Ubuntu...he is 11 years old.

The "average person" has a gaming pc. It dwarfs the console space. I'm almost positive that steam usually has more people online playing than on PS4/XBOX ONE/Wii U online combined.

How many people are playing games with low requirements like mobas or even counter strike? That's where most of the numbers come for Pc games

It doesn't matter, the argument is that "the average" doesnt know or care how to mess with sertings and that is simply not true.

My old ass uncle upgraded to Windows 10 on his own...People are way more comfortable with computers than many of you believe.

Breh my argument wasn't about numbers. When I said average person I mean the average person who owns a console, not the average who so happens to be a PC gamer. You're moving goalposts. Look at it like this, are the 80 million ps3 owners also PC enthusiasts? We don't know that.

you're on the internet. in real life the average person doesn't care about this "premium" price. You're literally assuming people go into best buy and gamestop to compare specs. Nobody cares about this shyt in the real world. When the average person think of games, they think of Nintendo, PS and Xbox not INTEL 5690X.
:comeon:

This is where you caught yourself. If the average person does not care, then why do more people play games on the PC? They pick up the knowledge without even trying. If they run into a game they can't run....oh shyt what do I need? Reddit and then several other outlets have the answers

The average person who play 2k, Cod Madden, and other games on consoles are the "average" person I'm talking about. THEY don't care about that crap. PC is HUGE because the sheer numbers of PC users are bigger. That's like saying!" Why are there more people playing mobile games than Xbox 1!?"
Because everyone has a phone.

The "average gamer" doesn't apply to just a subset you just highlighted breh.

See you mistaske now? That is not an average, that is a group within gaming overall.

I tried simplifying it. When I think of average gamer I think of the console crowd who aren't as into games that are popular on PC. I feel you get what I'm sayin but you want to argue semantics. Look at the top games on Steam and then on PC.. I don't think the "Average" Ps4 owner cares about goat simulator.

I honestly regret buying a PS4, no good games.
I'm going to make the switch to PC gaming by buying a gaming laptop.

Consoles are still popular, but mainly to due to consumer ignorance and misconceptions about PC gaming.
