Ubisoft engineer: "Console manufacturers" decide whitch parts of games to keep, pressure 30fps limit

[J Tyran]

No need to sensitive about anything, I was talking in general about the whole PC vs console thing and not any user in particular. Because you know people really do strongly identify with one side or the other, claiming I am being "direct and insulting" towards you is sensitivity at best and egocentric at worst.

If its the former I am sorry that you took it that way, unfortunate but what can I do if another poster misinterprets a general comment about wider attitudes?

As whatever ground you think I may or may not be standing can you elaborate? I made no claims about my position at all, I am curious about what assumptions you have come to.

That was what you were talking about... I thought you were referring to me using wrestling terms, not that platform wars nonsense I have no part in.

Yes clearly you no part in it.

 

[Strazdas]

Wrong I know what I'm saying every time. I've told you before the definition at least 3 times, and the others after getting tired of doing so I asked you to message me if you wanted to know. You didn't, not my fault.

I dont doubt you know what you are saying, merely implying that the way you are saying it does not always allow us to know what you are saying.

You believe all the stories printed on the Pravda were truthful? When the source is tainted people will tell at a glance that its a pack of lies. Simply put even if this story were actually true (which it ain't), it'd come of as lies simply by where its been "revealed".

so you agree than that a true leak story COULD be posted on that subreddit?

That on the PS4? No so it isn't an indie they are "falling over themselves" to get. Indie stuff at the time was those type of games the large majority of the time. Imagine the indie scene was 95% (pulled out random figure yes) that and than come back to me and say the two time frames (the now and the past) are the same.

Sorry, i didnt knew gaming market was limited to consoles. no, wait, its not. Indie scene IS 95% that. its just that just because there is 1000 trash games on say miniclip.com does not create the market to collapse.

Yes the home PCs in Europe were doing fine enough, but gaming wouldn't be what it is today without the explosion of popularity that happened in the US and Japan. However you're wrong if you think I need to refute you, you've made two glaring massive mistakes when talking about that period already, you have no credibility when it comes to claiming it was like X in those times as otherwise you wouldn't have made the mistakes you made.

Consoles were doing fine in Japan too. It was the american market that crashed. and no wonder the japanese consoles that were doing fine were the ones that took the void afterwards.

No of course it isn't an insult. Take for example that guy, you know the one (I know his name by the way, before you accuse me of not) who has sold his storyline/feud to certain fans so heavily they've been buying millions worth of his merch. What he did a couple of months back when he badmouthed consoles on a PC site was essentially like a guy showing up on an ECW show and saying some heelish things about WWE. Clearly a heel, but due to the location/audience he got loads of face pops.

so then it wouldnt be an insult if i called you a peasant, because after all there is a location where that simply means "does not accept PC superiority". except that it IS an insult, and i would get banned for it. and yet you are allowed to freely insult people you dont like because the insult is used in WWE.

 

[Rozalia1]

Yes clearly you no part in it.

Well I do have a part in interacting with those that do yes, I'd rather they drop the negativity/hate but as you recognise dropping something folk so strongly identify with can be difficult. My prescription to those afflicted would be to buy more varied games, and to appreciate the things in life more.

 

[Rozalia1]

I dont doubt you know what you are saying, merely implying that the way you are saying it does not always allow us to know what you are saying.

Reading it again okay you didn't say I don't know what I'm saying. However I can explain it so its still incorrect.

so you agree than that a true leak story COULD be posted on that subreddit?

A leak is more than "I heard this guy say X" with no evidence. Well yes potentially an Edward Snowden type fellow could post his leak on Pcmasterace, but considering such a fellow would have more than a single brain cell it won't happen there (if this is actually true). A leak could happen in this thread itself, doesn't mean it will.

Anyway the point is by posting there it shoots the credibility immediately unless the evidence is actually concrete.

Sorry, i didnt knew gaming market was limited to consoles. no, wait, its not. Indie scene IS 95% that. its just that just because there is 1000 trash games on say miniclip.com does not create the market to collapse.

There you go including irrelevant games into the equation (referring to the facebook games, 92%, and so forth). I'm obviously not including the likes of games of miniclip, I'm talking about games that get sold (and yes I'm aware some flash games have made the jump to being sold).

Consoles were doing fine in Japan too. It was the american market that crashed. and no wonder the japanese consoles that were doing fine were the ones that took the void afterwards.

We're talking consoles so yes it is the entire scope of what we're talking about. The PC "consoles" of sorts didn't last long, and without the leading force of Nintendo gaming would not have taken off as it did. Nintendo was the champion that people paid to see, what you're essentially saying is if the show was made up of just the enhancement talent that things would have gone fine...no. Nobody comes to a show to see enhancement talent, they come to see the stars.
All the respect to Atari, but they simply weren't drawing money by the time their title reign ended.

so then it wouldnt be an insult if i called you a peasant, because after all there is a location where that simply means "does not accept PC superiority". except that it IS an insult, and i would get banned for it. and yet you are allowed to freely insult people you dont like because the insult is used in WWE.

Well by what the term in gaming slang terms is supposed to mean it'd wrong as I'm multiplatform (yes I will be ignoring "Pcmasterace", as should you), but additionally the reason is that is because it would be malicious, heel is not.
I don't refer to forum members as heels/faces or whatever anyway, they are the audience not performers so it'd be incorrect to.

Let me put it this way, when someone heels it up in a news story the readers will be one of two types of people usually. Those that are sold on the story being reality and thus cheer, and those who likewise are sold on the reality and boo. I recognise its all kayfabe and rate how effective their work is, nothing more.
If more people were like me there would be a lot less hate in the world.

 

[Strazdas]

Reading it again okay you didn't say I don't know what I'm saying. However I can explain it so its still incorrect.

and it took us how long till i finally got an explanation for the hell/head concept?

Well by what the term in gaming slang terms is supposed to mean it'd wrong as I'm multiplatform (yes I will be ignoring "Pcmasterace", as should you), but additionally the reason is that is because it would be malicious, heel is not.

As i have said, the meaning of a "peasant" is one who does not recognize superiority of PC. you have shown multiple times that you do not think PC is superior, thus the slang term would not be wrong. Owning different platforms has nothing to do with this.

I don't refer to forum members as heels/faces or whatever anyway, they are the audience not performers so it'd be incorrect to.

I cant speak for everyone, but you certainly have refered to me as a heel multiple times.

 

[srm79]

Because when I think of a reliable and unbiased source, I think a thread created by a user on reddit in the "PC master race" thread whose proof is...a picture of a slide with Ubisofts name on it.

Well I'm convinced!

...yeah, get back to me when there's...well....ANY proof of this and that the rep said that.

But it was on the internet, and therefore must be true. Now where's my tinfoil hat?

 

[Rozalia1]

and it took us how long till i finally got an explanation for the hell/head concept?

You got it several times previously and several direct invitations to receive an explanation that others have accepted. Not my fault you put your fingers in your ears and didn't want to know.

As i have said, the meaning of a "peasant" is one who does not recognize superiority of PC. you have shown multiple times that you do not think PC is superior, thus the slang term would not be wrong. Owning different platforms has nothing to do with this.

http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=Console%20Peasant&defid=7837699

None of those apply to me so try again. Whatever the case multiplatform > PC anyway.

I cant speak for everyone, but you certainly have refered to me as a heel multiple times.

I've never referred to you as a heel. You've made the assertion that I called you a heel before that is so yes, and every time I've told you that you're not a performer.

 

[Rozalia1]

Please do pay attention if you're going to dish out that kind of post. Its out of nowhere and obviously an off topic attempted hatchet job but I'll answer. Send any responses in the mail if you will as I'd rather this thread not devolve into becoming about me.

Jesus Christ Rozalia. The amount of PR in here is deafening.

Ah yes I'd almost forgotten I'm Rozalia the paid shill who shills for every single company across several industries. Been a while since I've heard that one from you.

They did not "accept" your view, they ran off because they were scared of you stalking and harassing them. Hell, one of the things I heard from them was that they knew something was off when every other post is from you.

I know you saw "accept" and got all misty eyed but no you've completely read it wrong. I was talking on the subject of people not understanding some of the lingo I use, quite a few characters have asked me the meaning or reason I've used it. I've explained it to them, and they've accepted it...nothing more to it.

We get it, you hate PC gaming.

The fact so many people can only see things in binary is most unsettling...that old "you're either with us, or against us" chestnut.
No, me not being part of your little war effort doesn't mean I hate PC gaming/gamers. I oppose the vile hate some feel they have to spread by virtue of them owning but a single platform.

We get it, you'll cyber stalk anyone who doesn't agree with you for months and months.

Not the first time you're making this ridiculous claim and considering its an offence that is quite a serious accusation.

We get it, you'll start harassing people months after an argument already ended.

I have lengthy "feuds" so I hardly would need to restart an argument at some random B show. Now true some have been restarted but I'm not solely responsible for that. You yourself have taunted me to draw me out so you could restart an argument.

We get it, you'll start following people's post histories and dig up incredibly old posts.

I don't go mining for little pieces of ammo, I like any normal person note certain things people say to better form a view on where they stand. Don't want to have your own words used against you? Than don't make the mistakes in the first place, or admit to your previous mistakes, simple.

We get it, you invent insults to insult people without breaking the rules.

I'd have to have been born in the late 1800s/early 1900s to invent a term dating back to 1914 if you're referring to that one. Complete bunkum.

Drop it.

What? The beat? Sorry I turn that back.

 

[Strazdas]

You got it several times previously and several direct invitations to receive an explanation that others have accepted. Not my fault you put your fingers in your ears and didn't want to know.

multiple times you have either refused or failed to explain it, and yes there was that one time you invited me to ask it via PM for whatever reason, because apprently explaining in the post is that much ahrder.

http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=Console%20Peasant&defid=7837699

None of those apply to me so try again. Whatever the case multiplatform > PC anyway.

ah, urbandictionary, the source of your knowledge.

Here, let me oneup you there (you picked number 3, i picked number 2)
http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=Console%20Peasant&defid=7833300

First sentence reads:
"An uninformed, unenlightened console "gamer" who does not acknowledge the supreme power and affordability of a PC over a console."

I've never referred to you as a heel. You've made the assertion that I called you a heel before that is so yes, and every time I've told you that you're not a performer.

This is wrong. you have on multiple occasions refered to me as being a heel and for "being a mark for PC". It was because of this that i started asking you what it means, because i prefer to know what im being called.

 

[Bakuryukun]

I doubt Sony is doing that much of this considering the PS4 can do 60 easily, the Xbox One on the other hand...

 

[Rozalia1]

multiple times you have either refused or failed to explain it, and yes there was that one time you invited me to ask it via PM for whatever reason, because apprently explaining in the post is that much ahrder.

And the reason why I asked was because I had at that point previously told you at my counting 3 times previously, one which as I like to use examples was 3 paragraphs long. What ever the case the fact I asked you several times to ask me through pm which even you acknowledge happened, you didn't care to ask, others did.

ah, urbandictionary, the source of your knowledge.

Here, let me oneup you there (you picked number 3, i picked number 2)
http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=Console%20Peasant&defid=7833300

First sentence reads:
"An uninformed, unenlightened console "gamer" who does not acknowledge the supreme power and affordability of a PC over a console."

Okay we start off with a slight for no reason, so let me guess you get your meaning from the obviously more credible pcmasterace place you linked. There is several definitions on urban, you can't link it and than go this is the only one that is true.

Irrelevant ultimately as while you're trying your hardest to state I'm a "console peasant" I'm multiplatform which is so much greater than the ones who'd want to throw that moniker at me. The difference is I don't use that maliciously, and you know... I'd have actual reason to be malicious if I wanted to be (though I don't think those that are malicious would than find it so delightful to be the targets themselves).

This is wrong. you have on multiple occasions refered to me as being a heel and for "being a mark for PC". It was because of this that i started asking you what it means, because i prefer to know what im being called.

Never called you a heel and that is as Nattie's husband would say, fact. I have referred to you as a mark in the past yes that is true but as you misunderstand and don't know the meaning I can see why you're so adamant I called you a bad word.
Heel is a term for a performer, mark can be used for performers too... in fact you may have heard me state that certain people you like aren't marks, that is because they say what they say for specific reasons...them hating X, Y, and so forth is a storyline. However for the most part its an audience thing.
You know the meaning and its not difficult to see what I'm alluding to. A mark in its classic sense is someone who believes that everything that happens is real.

If we're talking about the platform wars than calling every participant (PC included) marks is apt (not that I am here in this post as I don't anymore due to reasons outlined). Its essentially interchangeable with fanboy, though considering how much offence some people take it clearly stings more. Fanboy is dismissed, mark seems to really hurt people for some reason... Especially PC warriors, it hurts the most to them going by what I've read in responses (and oh boy is it a lot worse elsewhere)...I suppose its due to that binary thing where you can only be one or the other. When someone who isn't a 0 or 1 gives them a somewhat similar treatment they give others it simply breaks their hearts I'm sure.

Now in another sense you can be a mark for a performer and it'll all be happy and dandy. Hey I'm a Ambrose mark, I mark for Wyatt, Prince pretty too, heck its not very popular to be one these days but I'm a mizfit...hell in an ironic way I was even a McGillabuddy (for real now as I like the Axeman's work as the medium guy to the Big guy's big guy).
Being a mark isn't a bad thing. Being a mark and due to that hating on everything else however is no good.

You may notice I don't use that to refer to anyone directly anymore on the forum (I still do in new stories), and that is as it kept being mistaken as malicious towards forum goers. This by the way was several paragraphs like the ones I wrote originally to explain to you the whole dynamic, please don't ignore this one as I'll not lay it out for you thrice.

Apologies to any along the way who took offence.

 

[Strazdas]

There is several definitions on urban, you can't link it and than go this is the only one that is true.

you mean, like you did?

Irrelevant ultimately as while you're trying your hardest to state I'm a "console peasant" I'm multiplatform which is so much greater than the ones who'd want to throw that moniker at me.

Like i said, being a peasant has nothing to do with what consoles you own. you could be a peasant without owning a single console. its about worldview.

A mark in its classic sense is someone who believes that everything that happens is real.

A mark in classic sense is very similar to a shill. that is why people get offended, they think you are calling them shills. you seem to use the wrestling definition though which is close to what you describe.

 

[Rozalia1]

you mean, like you did?

I said none applied to me, that isn't picking one...that is targeting all. However lets see what is said on what you picked however cringe inducing it may be:

An uninformed, unenlightened console "gamer" who does not acknowledge the supreme power and affordability of a PC over a console. These heathens not only live in denial, claiming their consoles have hardware superior to a PC, but also shun the ever shining light of lord and savior Gaben. Gaben is love and Gaben is life. Praise his eternal soul, and let him enlighten console peasants around the world.

Multiplatform so straight away it doesn't fit.
I acknowledge the "supreme power" possible if you have the right gear, affordability is questionable however many cut corners articles you link to.
The Gaben thing is something I've always found very odd because for all this talk of PC warriors being above Console warriors...they champion a company that they believe to own their platform? There is some interesting psychological reasons for that I'm sure, but this isn't the place for that.

In the wild, console peasants can be found talking in slanderous ways of the PC and PC gamers, claiming their consoles are more powerful than a PC, and also commonly claiming the human eye can only perceive 30 FPS and not the 60 enjoyed commonly by PC gamers.

The PC platform is a person apparently...as is companies to such people I'm sure...oh wait. What a poor choice of words.
Didn't know PCs were static also.

The best way to enlighten a peasant is to first tell them of the cheaper price of video games for PC, which can be found on Steam at a fraction of the price paid by console gamers. Then, proceed to tell then about building a PC, tell them of how simple the process is, and how even for the price of a console they can build a superior PC. It is important to direct them then to /r/buildapc on Reddit.

How much does Atelier Meruru cost on Steam? £15.65 on Amazon, let me check Steam...odd couldn't find it.
Virtue's Last Reward? Bayonetta 2? Yakuza 4? Soul Hackers?
Wait a minute these games aren't launch price, what sorcery is this.

Leaves out quite a few important details as everyone expects.

Finally, enlighten them by sending them to /r/PCMasterrace on reddit. From then on they will receive the blessings of Gaben and become a member of the PCMasterrace.

So you part of that /r/PCMasterrace? You've been "advertising" them enough first with first the link, and now the direction to an entry that directly advertises them, and lets not forget all the defenses of their credibility. What ever the case some odd religious like talk is said that means nothing, moving on.

Praise Gaben, he is love and he is life.
"I recently converted to the PCMasterrace after getting tired of hearing "I fuked ur mom" from console peasants on Xbox Live."

"Go forth and enlighten thy console peasants with the holy light of Gaben"

"The only good peasant is a converted peasant."

You know its fake right? Yes I used that one to be ironic.
I'd actually be interested in knowing what all the performers think on that story actually, but they have more important things to do.

Like i said, being a peasant has nothing to do with what consoles you own. you could be a peasant without owning a single console. its about worldview.

I was going to talk about scope and being outside it...and being called poor (as an insult) for not owning a £50,000 car when I own a £500,000 car...but enough about that.

Worldview implies this is serious and not a joke. That so, its all real is it?

A mark in classic sense is very similar to a shill. that is why people get offended, they think you are calling them shills. you seem to use the wrestling definition though which is close to what you describe.

A mark is a victim, a shill is an accomplice. The words do not == each other in the sense you speak about.

 

[Strazdas]

Multiplatform so straight away it doesn't fit.

Yes, it does. That quoted part does not exclude multiplatformers.

I acknowledge the "supreme power" possible if you have the right gear, affordability is questionable however many cut corners articles you link to.

So, then, it fits.

The Gaben thing is something I've always found very odd because for all this talk of PC warriors being above Console warriors...they champion a company that they believe to own their platform? There is some interesting psychological reasons for that I'm sure, but this isn't the place for that.

GabeN thing is sort of a running gag here. They even reference Shrek is love, Shrek is life [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P_MJbgO7SF0] as Gaben is love, Gaben is life. The joke is that Gaben is a god and steam is his church. there is a whole bible being written about GabeN now actually... I do agree that it looks super creepy for people who are not in on the joke.

So you part of that /r/PCMasterrace?

I am a member of that forum, yes.

You know its fake right? Yes I used that one to be ironic.

we are talking about a made up name for people who dont hold PC as superior. OF COURSE ITS FAKE.

I was going to talk about scope and being outside it...and being called poor (as an insult) for not owning a £50,000 car when I own a £500,000 car...but enough about that.

Peasant, even in its classical meaning is less about being poor and more about being part of low social class. in this example a peasant buying a 500.000 car would still remain a peasant and likely destroy his car through misuse. The problem here being his worldview, not the amount of money he can throw around. thats why rich mobsters are still mobsters.

capcha: sombody that i used to know.
see, even capcha abandons peasants.

 

[Rozalia1]

Yes, it does. That quoted part does not exclude multiplatformers.

Yes it does as it specifically mentions consoles, and talks about those that talk about their console being more powerful than a PC. That doesn't apply to me.

So, then, it fits.

Did I say a console is more powerful? Well if we're talking factual than yes a console is more powerful than a lot of PCs out there, but a non static nature means you can make a more powerful PC (which is what they are ultimately talking about). That is acknowledging the whole matter, according to them however PCs are some static box that is simply more powerful, that is inaccurate as PCs aren't the same.
As for affordability, Blu Ray drive/windows/necessary accessories. They are just wrong, and I'm not going to accept something I know to be false.

GabeN thing is sort of a running gag here. They even reference Shrek is love, Shrek is life as Gaben is love, Gaben is life. The joke is that Gaben is a god and steam is his church. there is a whole bible being written about GabeN now actually... I do agree that it looks super creepy for people who are not in on the joke.

Sounds like an appeal to have a platform holder to defend. You'd think due to the no owner nature of PC that these things wouldn't happen, but all the Valvites and how quick and serious they are show its a very real thing.

I am a member of that forum, yes.

So which hate filled cabal moonshine is yours in that link? Well they are all of that nature from the looks of it so it'd not be hard to imagine what you posted if you did.

we are talking about a made up name for people who dont hold PC as superior. OF COURSE ITS FAKE.

The issue however is you're talking to me about "worldview", that says its serious. If it was a joke than you wouldn't be talking about worldview.

Peasant, even in its classical meaning is less about being poor and more about being part of low social class. in this example a peasant buying a 500.000 car would still remain a peasant and likely destroy his car through misuse. The problem here being his worldview, not the amount of money he can throw around. thats why rich mobsters are still mobsters.

"worldview" in essence is part of the matter, but not how you talk about it. Such things happen because the people in question can only see things in a state of binary. It is a 1 or a 0...the number 2 and 3 isn't even there according to them.

 

[Strazdas]

Yes it does as it specifically mentions consoles, and talks about those that talk about their console being more powerful than a PC. That doesn't apply to me.

playing games on consoles (you know, being a console gamer) does not prevent you from playing games on PC. the two are not mutually exclusive.

Did I say a console is more powerful? Well if we're talking factual than yes a console is more powerful than a lot of PCs out there, but a non static nature means you can make a more powerful PC (which is what they are ultimately talking about). That is acknowledging the whole matter, according to them however PCs are some static box that is simply more powerful, that is inaccurate as PCs aren't the same.
As for affordability, Blu Ray drive/windows/necessary accessories. They are just wrong, and I'm not going to accept something I know to be false.

SO then you do not agree that PC is more powerful and more affordable, hence making you fit that part of description.

Sounds like an appeal to have a platform holder to defend. You'd think due to the no owner nature of PC that these things wouldn't happen, but all the Valvites and how quick and serious they are show its a very real thing.

Valvites, well thats a new one. I do agree that the monopolization that Valve is doing is not a good thing and that it shouldnt be encouraged.

So which hate filled cabal moonshine is yours in that link? Well they are all of that nature from the looks of it so it'd not be hard to imagine what you posted if you did.

Neither, this was my first visit to urban dictionary in years.

Oh, you mean that subreddit? my nick there is Strazdas1, not that hard to figure out who that is, your welcome to look at my posting history, its all public.

The issue however is you're talking to me about "worldview", that says its serious. If it was a joke than you wouldn't be talking about worldview.

A joke cannot exist about worldview? ok your going to have to explain that because its contrary to reality where jokes about worldview DO exist.

"worldview" in essence is part of the matter, but not how you talk about it. Such things happen because the people in question can only see things in a state of binary. It is a 1 or a 0...the number 2 and 3 isn't even there according to them.

Well, computers are binary too, and look how far they got.

jokes aside, i think the numbers more fitting here would be numbers between 0 and 1, not something above both.

 

[black_knight1337]

-Snip-

Being a 'peasant' or part of the 'master race' has nothing to do with your platform of choice. It is simply defined by the recognition, or lack of, of the superiority of the PC as a platform. And yeah, you'd definitely fall in the 'peasant' category considering how you love to go on about how expensive PC gaming is.

OT: As I said in that thread when it first came up, it's definitely plausible. You have to think, why would Ubisoft make an outright bad business decision to just straight up disable graphical features on the PC version of Watch Dogs? It makes a hell of a lot more sense that Microsoft/Sony are giving them an ulterior motive to do so rather than them just pissing off PC users because they can.

 

[Rozalia1]

playing games on consoles (you know, being a console gamer) does not prevent you from playing games on PC. the two are not mutually exclusive.

Yes as I've said many times. These people do not see outside binary however so they aren't alluding to that.

SO then you do not agree that PC is more powerful and more affordable, hence making you fit that part of description.

I'm acknowledging all states as PCs aren't static.

Valvites, well thats a new one. I do agree that the monopolization that Valve is doing is not a good thing and that it shouldnt be encouraged.

Well there you go, tell your friends. They can finally have an actual name like the "Xbots" and all that.

Neither, this was my first visit to urban dictionary in years.

Oh, you mean that subreddit? my nick there is Strazdas1, not that hard to figure out who that is, your welcome to look at my posting history, its all public.

Was clearly referring to Pcmasterace.

That would be mining for ammo as Ultratwinkie says, and I don't need to do that though I'm sure I'd find it if I tried, I'm not in that business. Though I do see your post in that link yes. Makes three statements, all incorrect. A theme of that place I'd wager.

A joke cannot exist about worldview? ok your going to have to explain that because its contrary to reality where jokes about worldview DO exist.

Its about it apparently being a joke, but you talking serious to justify it.
You have to seriously have the world view that you should only own a PC to than make a joke about how you should only own a PC...not getting how its all a joke than. The "joke" would be more effective if it wasn't used maliciously often.

Well, computers are binary too, and look how far they got.

jokes aside, i think the numbers more fitting here would be numbers between 0 and 1, not something above both.

Yes thank you I know computers use binary, hence why I used it. I could have used a switch as an example but binary is more related to what is being said.

The number defining multiplatform is a mean/medium? Why isn't it a simple addition?

Being a 'peasant' or part of the 'master race' has nothing to do with your platform of choice. It is simply defined by the recognition, or lack of, of the superiority of the PC as a platform. And yeah, you'd definitely fall in the 'peasant' category considering how you love to go on about how expensive PC gaming is.

Problem being of course that there is no one definition for that particular piece of lingo. Looking at "PC master race" its even defined as simply someone who builds their own PC, along with all the other definitions with varying meanings.
You're missing console along with that peasant, purposely clearly as this made up meaning of a made up term is not solely defined in one manner and you're trying very hard to peg it on me one way or the other.

All this is really making me want to quote Chick Magnet Phillip Jack Brooks Punk to straight up put an end to this blather, but that could be constructed as mean even if some would say the targets would be "acceptable".
I'm not in that business and I'm sure you've already seen it anyhow.

Do I now? Where is the evidence of this than? Where is me saying you need to spend £1000 to get 1080p on a PC? Oh wait it doesn't exist so why am even asking the question.
