I am a PC enthusiast, overclocking, tweaking, building, generally always tinkering with stuff.
What i always wanted to do was play games on PC though because well we all know visuals are always better on PC, we get a lot of freedom with how we tweak games so that they run etc to how we like.
Then i feel around the past 3 years or so it has massively been declining for me, cheating is so huge now that 1 in every game will be a cheater, whether obvious about it or not.
And i have only 1 thing i can point my finger at, and that is the PC community as a whole. What argument do PC gamers try to convey to console players or new people to gaming that does not come off as elitist?
We have mods, we can tweak games how we want, freedom.
That puts quite the picture into these peoples heads, not always cheating, i'm not going that far.
But then the learning curve learning new controls, ego issues and wanting to be better than their foes..
Do you see where i am going here? ok it's a stab in the dark, but you and no one else can deny the huge cheating problem on all popular games especially FPS style E-sports titles, CSGO being the leader for just how bad it is.
I am actually inclined to stop gaming on PC online and move to console just to gain a fair match any more.
For 7 years i have been a member of the Steam community, i have been a member of the Battlefield community for 10 years.
I have 507 games on Steam, i have played a lot. Never gained any kind of ban because it is beneath me, i want to prove myself with ego in a way that i improve, not use 3rd party cheats to gain advantages or to make other people feel awful for putting their time and effort into something that is just cheated away from them.
In a way this is a sort of rant, but i feel i need to express my view, my want to play PC games is high, but online? not so much any more.
