I've never had a virus or malware infection, for example. Yeah well. I never had one either. They usually happen when people are stupid. Leaving their rigs unprotected, clicking on links they shouldn't click on or download some shady apps that promise them the world. It's simple, really. It's also simple to maintain a working rig. My current system cost a grand total of 400. And I have no problems running the latest games on medium/high. Maybe I don't get even the last shader or pixel effect, but at least I am the ultimate authority on what goes on my piece of hardware and which mods I'm going to use.

Played the OT on both console (Xbox 360) and PC and PC is easily far superior. The reasons why have been discussed ad nauseam on the 'net. After ascending from a dirty console peasant to the glorious PC master race, I will never go back (except maybe for a good Metroid game. )

PCs got worse in that operating systems have become awful and maintaining a PC is always more of a hassle than consoles. Consoles are just less of a headache now. Thanks. I don't see any real usability difference between W10 and, say, XP, myself. (Never bothered to upgrade to 7 or 8.) Can consoles actually be maintained? My impression was that they work until they fail for good. I have had nothing but trouble with Windows 10 myself. And consoles have failed me less than PCs over my life as well.

You actually enjoyed playing Destiny? How? Community and Friends mostly. Doing Raids, going flawless in Trials of Osiris, collecting all the loot, weapons, gear, and shaders, dominating Iron Banner with my clan, doing speed runs of missions and Strikes, complete the books, getting all the grimoire to read the lore, and mostly just help out new people level up, complete raids, and nightfalls so they can enjoy the game as well. It's a lot of fun with a group of people. It sucks by yourself. And I get to watch friends do stuff like this, and meet some guys who are a lot better at video games than I am. I state it now, Destiny 2 is going to be the biggest game on PC for the next few years. Yeah I suppose that's true, Destiny is definitely a lot better with friends. Unfortunately I may have done too much grinding in year 1 and it burnt me out, by the time year 2 was out playing the game felt like a chore and most of my friends had stopped playing.

The times when gaming PCs cost the world are long gone. Mine, where I can play most games on high settings, did cost about 450. If you prefer to play on consoles, that's an entirely different argument.

The ones I've seen for $450 were shitboxes that I wouldn't really trust to run anything substantial without paying for upgrades.
