Do you think PC gaming is too expensive?

If you want to play a game at ps4 (playstation 4) level, you have to invest over 1,000 euro for a computer. That is almost 3 times as much as a console. You can write with a PC, but that would not increase the price difference.

You can do a lot with consoles these days and they are much cheaper than a computer.

The ps5 costs 500 euro and would mean a PC worth 1,500 euro.

So 3 times as often.

I think PC gaming is way too expensive.

Console gaming is a lot cheaper.

If you want to see a quality difference between consoles, you have to spend 2k and more on a PC.

I have a 1k computer on ultra that doesn't even run gta5

There are also pc's for less than 600 euro at the level of a ps4 (at normal hardware prices

You just save a lot on the games. Most games are already available in gamestores on day 1, 20-30 euro cheaper + Sony and Microsoft are now releasing their 'exclusive titles' for PC. Means: On the PC you have the largest selection of games.

Especially since a PC is not only there for gaming, but you can also work with it.

I've used both sides for years and can 100% say that the gaming PC is significantly cheaper for someone who gambles a lot.

Purchasing a PC is just expensive.

With a console, everything is tailored to the hardware. In addition, it is mass-produced, which is completely the same and therefore you can buy or produce the parts very cheaply.

Games are tricked with variable resolutions, which are raised again in the screenshot mode of some games or suddenly lowered in the case of many opponents, because it is not always noticeable when moving.
In addition, the game also has fixed settings, which can all be adjusted on the PC. By the way, console games are often only designed for 30-60FPS. PC's are now for more than 60 FPS!

Another problem is that games are rarely written directly for the PC, but only ported from the console! The performance of the PC is therefore not always processed so well. Games that are really written for the PC usually have good graphics on the PC, but you can hardly get them to run on a console.

Furthermore, you can use a PC for a lot more, you can mod games and just such a desktop PC can also be easily upgraded or repaired.
In addition, the PC is also backwards compatible a long way back, which the console is not, since it often has to be bought new (PS3 to PS4, for example).

And another interesting point, you don't pay for the games so you can play online! And PC games are often cheaper, keys are even cheaper.

Nope, the new games usually only cost 10 euro less than consoles. Rdr2 still costs 55 euro at steam.

In terms of price, there's no big difference. But the calculator then costs 3 times as much.

Yes Work. But that does not explain the extreme price differences.

As I said ps4 quali costs 1k. Ps5 quali 1,500 and more.

You can buy a lappy for 400 euro to work and a console for 500 euro and have more of it than a gaming PC for 1500 euro

With games, it is also the case that not every gamepad transmits with every game. And some games (e.g. Gta) can't be played with a keyboard.

Rdr2 still costs 55 euro at steam.

PC gamers like to look at keystores.
And Steam often has very good offers too.

Keystore is often associated with rip-offs. At mmoga, there were often no keys for the games.

I found rdr2 but for 55 euro.

Eurotruck, the bus and Fernbus simulator even cost more than on CD.

But you can't move the steam games on the computer. And you have to have internet to play the games. Ie the games don't belong to you steam. Despite that you bought it.

With consoles, gaming goes offline and you can move them to an ssd and play.

Steam also goes offline!

And with GoG at the latest, your worldview will probably be completely different in this regard. You only need the installer and you can play the game afterwards. You can even give the game to someone else!

And at MMOGA or Kinguin I always found all the keys I was looking for and got them!

But you can't move the steam games on the computer

And what do you mean with? XD

For example, I can't move the games from my ssd to the hdd. Otherwise the games won't work.

You have to move the entire steam folder. I just can't do that. Since I have 2 games on it, they run better on ssd.

Unfortunately my ssd is full. And I had to move all of the games to your new ssd. Because individual games are not going to be postponed.

For me, steam games do not go offline because I get an error message.

What is gog?

And you just have to specify another hard drive on Steam.
Then right click on the game, properties and under the local game files you will then be given the option to move the steam game. It works after that too!

On the one hand, PC hardware is currently unaffordable because of the chip. Nevertheless, the PC is almost always technically more advanced and offers better graphics and by that I don't mean the graphics for the money, but what is feasible. As a rule, you are waiting for the next generation of consoles. In addition, the PC is more than just gaming.

No that didn't when I wanted to install gta 5. There was no record selected even though I selected my record.

I also want to postpone the game now and that just doesn't work.

Modding is another thing. If you want to use graphic mods, then you need a computer that is the same as that of gronkh (about 15,000 euro) because 16 GB RAM 6 cores a graphics card example my gk (Nvidia Geforce 1650 4gb gddr6) is far from being sufficient out. The gk is enough nxht times with gta 5 on ultra and also with rdr2 on ultra nichtr. You need more power.

The graphic mods need 32 to. But ram a graphics card example (Nvidia 2080 GTX with at least 8 graphics memory) that would be an ultra-computer.

Then modding is pretty hard. As an unsuspecting person I can't do that. Then mods also often cost a lot of money.

The games are not necessarily cheaper. As with PC games, there are often offers for console games. For example, I got a game on offer for half the price 1 week after its release. As with PC games, you have to look for offers. Otherwise the price is not particularly higher.

Yes, you can do more with a PC. But that doesn't explain the extreme price differences. As I said, the console-level PC costs 1,000 euro for the 400 console.

Ps5 costs 500 euro an equivalent calculator easily 3 times as much.

In addition, computers have to be upgraded at great expense almost every year and games have to be played with a good resolution. Consoles do not have to be upgraded and you can use them for a long time to gamble.

If you take a cheap laptop and console, you get the same effect as with a PC. When you can't modding.

Online you can btw just as well with consoles. Except that you need a subscription. But there you have some advantages like free games.

Then you're doing something wrong, I can do that.

I meant ultra realistic mods. There are 4 and 5 for gta, for example. Your gk is not enough.

2014? All right, the gaming PC was still at 3 to 4k.

OK not a gronkh PC but still 10 times the ps3 of that time. 10 times.

Seriously, I wouldn't care if the graphics were a bit better than ps3. 3 to 4 k for a computer, my money would be a shame.

I did research OK 15k is too much. But for a computer that almost packs the ultramods. If you also pay from 2800 euro that is 7 times as much as a console for something modding.

Done mods?

Still, I don't know how to insert it. And the descriptions are incomprehensible. Because often English. What I can't. I'm definitely not the only one who doesn't speak English. OK wsl one of the few who can't speak English.

/ most mods even harm the games. Like realistic mods. They bug the games.

You can do without it.

Yes, PCs can do more.

But unimportant things that a computer can do more.

As I said, you buy a lappy for 3 to 400 euro and the ps5 and you can play games on ultra HD and with ray tracing.

UHD and raytracing can only be done by a 1.5 to 2k computer.

A lappy for 3 to 400 euro plus ps5 because you have the same quali as for a computer for 1,500 to 2k.

Sas then in the end for half.

PC gaming is overpriced and often pointless spending money.

What do mods bring?

Often nothing really big.

Mhhh strange.

When the game asked me save different location. I clicked on the other plate and it said that I had selected the wrong folder. Only when I nxht changed the record. I was able to save the game.

I can't insert mods, but I can save games. Because with another game that I didn't buy from steam, I have a free choice where I want to save it. I don't have this at steam. Wsl have you paid account or what do I know. It doesn't work with me. And now that the games are on the record, I can't move them to the record that had enough space. That at steam games. That's why I think that the games are not part of it, but still steam. Only I'm allowed to play more but not.

We summarize, you are doing something wrong! With you it is obviously pure user errors out of ignorance.

I don't have the point postpone games. When I calculate mouse button go to my games.

You have to select an installed game, then go to properties and then to local files.
You can then move the installation folder there.

OK hot skipped a step. Namely how to create the folder.

But I found that myself and was able to move the game. Thank you for your help. Without your help, I would never have made it.
