GTA 6's console-only launch reminds me of how much I despise console exclusivity - is it worth waiting years for PC ports?

    Consoles shape how games are played because of their controllers, and how we they are optimized; the aim is still 30-60 fps ffs…

    We’d all be better off with PC only. Fuck consoles!

        Their controller, CPU and GPU are the bottleneck, not the OS.

          If we aren’t OS limited then we aren’t gamepad limited because you can just use a kb/m

            I mean games got slower because of controllers (think arenafps and boomer shooters).

              But that’s an OS imposed limitation not a hardware imposed one
