Had a console vs PC argument and realized the guy had no idea what a PC actually is
Got into one of those dumb console vs PC talks with a coworker yesterday and I thought it was gonna be normal banter.
He was very pro console, which is fine, I get it. Consoles are simple and they just work. But then he started saying PCs are “only for spreadsheets” and that you have to buy a whole new computer every time a new game comes out.
I tried explaining that you can just upgrade parts, adjust settings, use whatever controller you want, mod games, emulate older stuff, use it for work too, all that. He kept saying “yeah but it’s not optimized” like that was a magic spell that ended every point.
The best part was when he said a PS5 is stronger than “most 4090 computers” because it was made by Sony and not “random parts from Amazon.”
I wasn’t even trying to convert him. I’ve had consoles too and I still think they have their place. But it was funny watching someone defend something so hard while clearly not knowing how the other side works.
