How come the gaming community never has a problem with there being PC exclusives?

[Diondon]

This is just from scrolling IGN most recent videos. None of them are slated to release on console. There's a ton of them.
I thought exclusives were anti consumer?
So if I wanted to play any of these, I'd be forced to buy a $2,000 PC

these games are only on PC because it's the easiest platform to release on. not because someone paid them to keep their game off other platforms

What do you mean the easiest platform to release on? They're all developed on PC architecture
Also if you call owning a studio means paying them to keep games off other platforms, I guess

it costs $100 to release your game on Steam

It's all hypocritical bs lol. Nobody says that about Nintendo exclusives either.

 

[CoolinInTheCut]

All those games will end up on console eventually

You think you console players are smart enough to play something like total war

You guys out here running to youtube for every RE9 puzzle

probably not all, but yeah, having a game on PC could help leverage getting acceptance on other platforms. plus things like getting dev kit fees waived

Considering some of the top played games on steam, this is funny

If you're a console only person I don't see why you would care at all.

 

[ALonelyDad]

Out of all the games, the Samson game might be the only one I have interest in. Console players dont really care about most of these PC only games

Porting to console is not simple or cheap. Most of these dev teams are very small. Consoles are also extremely strict when it comes to stability, bugs, and patches.
