Wait, what? I have to buy a PC about every 10 to 15 years and it does’t cost me “thousands”. Last year, I bought one for about $700 and I can run every game at maximum settings with no issues.
Just wait for components to be on sale (it happens often) and you’ll have a good pc for a very good price.
Just stop chasing trends and play everything on a 5-10 year delay. Or better yet, just play indie. I save so much
money and my backlog is so long I don’t even have time to play all of it.
I’ve just installed STALKER: Anomaly, a total conversion mod for STALKER: Call of Chernobyl. If you’ve never played the STALKER series before it is one of my favourite games of all time.
Operation Harsh Doorstop and Ravenfield are fun fps to casually dick around. I like them for their growing Steamworkshop mod scene, especially with Ravenfield.
Return of the Obra Dinn and Disco Elysium are two games on my backlog that saddens me every time I see it because I’d love to finish them but I just couldn’t find the time.
Project Zomboid and Deep Rock Galayctic are fun times with people.
I was gifted Frostpunk and Outer Wilds. I haven’t got around to playing it yet but my brother loved it.
Actually its quite the opposite usualy and games on conosles run well while on pc they can be a buggy mess.
Granted on pc they will/can look better but the optimization is mostly done for console players.
That’s why I will never PC game. You spend thousands on your gaming PC and it can’t play a game that will come out in a year
I spend something equivalent to around $2k in USD every 5-7 years and I’m fine.
To be fair that’s a lot more money than a console.

What did you buy for $700 that can play every game at max?
It’s a quantum computer, I got it from Canada.
The exchange rate is good right now.

I much prefer that, like a console I just want to be able to pop something in and have it run.

Any recommendations?

I’m sure a $1k+ PC can run pretty much any game, but not at the same graphics quality as a $4k HPC that helped create it.
To be fair people who pay thousands are probably perfectly fine with Starfield, although they may have to be satisfied with 120fps instead of 240fps.
The ones mainly hurting are the ones with similar budgets as console gamers. And console gamers are hardly unfamiliar with performance issues.
Being a pc gamer has much more to do with what ecosystem you get to tap into, rather than how much you’re spending.

The game averages 75fps with a 4090 or 7900xtx at 4k high settings
