Today, Steam set a new record for concurrent users as there were 15,053,189 Steam users online at the same time. The previous 14 million milestone was broken back in January 9th, and it took Valve eight months in order to reach the 15 million goal.
According to Steam’s graphs, PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds was the most played game today as it peaked at 1,349,584 gamers (slightly higher than we reported a few minutes ago). DOTA 2 comes second, followed by Counter-Strike: Global Offensive, Grand Theft Auto V, H1Z1: King of the Kill and Team Fortress 2. Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six Siege is in seventh place, followed by ARK: Survival Evolved, Football Manager 2017 and Warframe.

PUGB is a monster hu?
At the rate it’s going PUBG will soon double DOTA II’s concurrent player count. It’s already more than doubled CS:GO’s figures. Amazing.
Amazing you say huh?
Thought it wouldn’t be long until you rocked up! PUBG articles at DSOG are like red rag to a bull for you for whatever reason.
Because they’re just abusing its popularity for clicks, with no reason whatsoever, when i found out about this website, it was different, it was far more mature than most you can find, now they’re just levelling to the rest of the garbage, and it makes me very sad, to that just add the fact that the game they’re talking about is getting undeserved hype and following (not that’s a good thing in anyway, except for dev’s pockets), so yeah, that’s why.
It just show how easily people gets influenced by reviews on videogames, and such, on the internet, which is very sad.
In your opinion.
Lol, no, i don’t want to start this again, please.
The game is getting undeserved hype and following, period.
It’s a trend, it’ll pass, get over it. Someone gifted the game to me and I haven’t touched it, nor I plan to.
Completely agree with you, I came here running away from PCgamer and its clickbait titles about games we supposedly should care about while good games get under radar because their developers dont have the money to pay for “news articles”.
Sad story but to get bigger, DSOG needs to “inform” us about the trend games, but at least they are still publishing about some less popular stuff, so as they keep doing that I can just jump over “Overwatch” articles.
Yeah well everything isn’t lost yet, i can give them they’re still talking about not popular, and good stuff sometimes, but it was way better years back.
i’m really worried for the future of DSOgaming
John and Jak have been uploading crap “articles” for a past month
nothing but crap on the main page and it doesn’t seem to be changing anytime soon
i miss the days where DSO RARELY uploaded articles, and each other was crafted by the writer’s hand
not copy pasted from WCCtech or other bogus sites
so sad their sole motivation is money, greedy humans…
There are two kind of obsessions, yours is to praise everything related to this game.
A factually incorrect statement but don’t worry yourself with letting the facts get in the way of your beliefs.
Ok, then I just imagined you stalking oxidized comments about this game. Also talking about beliefs over facts, this game making the double of dota sounds more like a belief than a fact.
He’s not probably stalking my comments, more like he feels to defend his fav game from ugly, bad, obsessed haters, and since i often talk about this game in the comments (after all there’s at least a new on this game every week, AT LEAST) he has probably highlighted me as a hater and everything, so yeah, in the end the obsession is his, me, i will just try to avoid the game as hard as i can from now on, i feel it’s actually the best thing to do, i’ve wasted way too many hours of my life talking about this POS, and it’s not worth even one second more, it’ll be hard but i’ll try. I wish there was some kind of chrome extension to help lol.
Dude, just a few days ago you labelled me as a butthurt AMD fanboy and “poison”, you cannot be serious with that spiel…
I actually had to google the word “spiel”, you’ve got to be either british or american, so your toxicity is excused 🙂
Also i don’t understand why you want so badly to re-ignite the fuse, you probably have very little to do with your time, good for you. I’m actually unemployed atm, and i still can’t find the time to write many as my comments as you, and we joined disqus rougly at the same time.
“so your toxicity is excused”
Yeah, so we are doing this then?, you’re throwing down with someone else and now me, because I called out out. I see how it is with you now. You are the “can do no wrong” type.
No mate, the internet never forgets. You decided to toss a name to my end, one that 1) wasn’t true and 2) doesn’t fit. Now you’re doing the same to someone else because it’s a game you clearly have zero interest in, thus you attack the guy giving praise, and now it seems you attack anyone that’s to call you out.
Oh I have time, it’s called the weekend, you know when people are supposed to have time off?.
You proved to me that you’re very much willing to act toxic at will, without accepting that you have just tripped up and won’t admit it. This is no different than conversing with a /b/ tard who calls everything garbage that isn’t on his hit list.
Since talking to me it’s like talking to a /b/ tard (i’ll deliberately ignore the insult), let’s do this properly
>I do many things wrong
>You’re an AMD fanboy, true, and fits
>What exactly am i doing to someone else?
>I’ve had much more free time than you, still i have like 1/20 of your posts, and i joined only 6 months later than you. But this is just something i noticed, hopefully you won’t take any kind of offence
>How, and where exactly did i trip up?
>As i already stated many times in many other occasions, there’s plenty of stuff that isn’t on my “hit list”, not for that i call them garbage.
Any more poison to spit at me or? sh*t, i forgot the “>”
>Any more poison to spit at me or?
>As always, have a good day sir.
You’ve basically just listed reasons as to why you’re acting like someone straight from /b/.
You are literally that guy who refuses to admit he screws up./ he likes to say he does, but he never fully admits it in a way that he apologises for acting that way, so instead he excuses himself for his actions.
Stop acting like such a coward. You made your own bed, time to lie in it.
Ok, so poison isn’t finished yet, but apparently there isn’t very much left, keep taking it all out, i won’t be mad at you, in the end you’re just another of those mirror climbers who wanders around this and similar websites, i’ve pulled apart many, i won’t have any problems with other ones.
You finished your points many many posts ago (assuming you ever had any), you joined this discussion in order to keep spitting poison at me (again, prey mod’s topic docet), it just won’t work, as i’ve dealt with so many people like you, i’ve grown some kind of counterpoison.
Okay so coward isn’t finished repeating the same line of dialogue he’s been rolling with since days ago.
Nothing new.
You’re just a coward who doesn’t want to admit he’s messed up and thinks he’s right all the time. You are acting exactly like that kind of guy. Always making up excuses as to why he isn’t wrong and what he says is gospel. I’ve seen your type before and you won’t be the last either.
“pull apart”, lol mate, you ain’t pulled anything apart here, besides your own ego that is.
I grow tired of your kind acting like pompous little brats, refusing to admit they did wrong and getting what’s coming to them, then they complain when they get a deserved kick up their backside. I hope that comes to you someday, because my god do you deserve it.
Well said.
??
You’re still talking? Still have poison? Alright then, keep going, for some reason you still think you can do something by insulting me, well keep doing it, no problem.
You’re still repeating the same drivel?, nothing new there.
I’m repeating the same drivel because you’re repeating the same insults, we can keep going forever for all i care, i already won, you just keep showing how immature and salty you are.
Oh it’s funny how you call your insult card, yet you deny your previous ones beforehand, very rich indeed.
You’ll only keep going because you’re like any of those other folk from /b/, you keep going to win at something.
You prove this more with each reply, but keep on wasting your own time by all means.
It’s the only thing you’ve done from the beginning to the end of the argument, insulting, and from me you only heard a “fanboy”
I’ll keep going because i’m right, and i won’t stop until you do, and for some other reason you still think i’m a /b/ guy, i don’t even know what /b/ refers too, i only know it comes from 4chan, and i visited that website briefly like 10 times in my entire life, so again you keep climbing some kind of non existent mirror, only because you’re an immature person, and can’t let go when the argument is clearly lost.
And you prove this more with each reply, but don’t worry about my time, i have plenty to waste, especially with people like you.
You had balls to call me a “butthurt AMD fanboy” and call that card here and now.
You do nothing but try to excuse your own behaviour, trying to justify it without even realising how it makes you look.
You know why you’re getting those hurled at you?, because you insulted me and others first. You get what you are given. You try to justify your own mud slinging, do not expect anyone to be kind to you when you go down that road, ever.
lol, now you’re using mirror retorts, because that’s all you can do now.
You are literally the worst kind of person on this site.
I insulted nobody, you’re so mad i called you fanboy, which i still think you are, because otherwise things you said and things you’ve done, you wouldn’t have.
You don’t understand the problem here is you, not me, it’s you who kept stalking me just because i said you’re a fanboy whom you clearly are, and you’re also butthurt about that, so butthurt you just don’t let go, you’ve lost, stop it, whoever neutral person i showed this to, or saw this, agreed with me on everything, and you just keep making it worse for you.
I’ve been using mirror retorts from the beginning because i had instantly the feeling you were that type of person, immature, childish, and butthurt.
And this is the proof that confirms everything i said.
https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/5ca23bf52d4ca1f4d03a03eabfe033fff7f9cff92b77847c14b7e4d288380849.jpg
Reflect on your own mistakes, and stop calling out other people, because you can’t accept you’ve lost an argument.
I’m talking about that other comment you made about me:
https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/98713b3fabc09eec9395c2654746d2404e8448d8ac047b348f2e0f3dabbe2836.png
The problem is you acting like you’ve done nothing wrong, and that you’re allowed to insult others and justify it./ You are no more than a petulant child, thinking they’ve done nothing ill to anyone.
You are what you are, simple as.
You prove to me that you’re full of nothing but fluff and empty mirror retorts.
More mirror climbing
I see no insults in there, what are you talking about?
I DID nothing wrong, at least in this occasion that is, i’m not insulting, that’s you, i HAVEN’T done anything wrong to you that’s pretty sure.
You already proven to me you just like to mirror climb to death, even when it’s so obvious you finished arguments and points (again, if you ever had any)
I’m actually starting to wonder if you’re trolling me or you’re just serious, because i can’t tell anymore.
See, all you’re using is what I said and mirroring it. Now you’re even using the word in general.
You called me a “butthrut AMD fanboy” and yet you call not “wrong”.
You really are a stuck up ignorant person.
You prove nothing more than how you act in general mate, but keep tossing our retorts,
LMAO you are trolling, please tell me you are trolling, you can’t be like this.
In that screenshot you posted, there’s no butthurt written anywhere, although, yes i said that to you because that’s just true, but still it’s not an insult, man i’m not native english, you are, and yet you don’t know what butthurt means?
from Urbandictionary:
ButtHurt
An inappropriately strong negative emotional response from a perceived personal insult. Characterized by strong feelings of shame. Frequently associated with a cessation of communication and overt hostility towards the “aggressor.”
It describes you PERFECTLY, you’re butthurt becase you perceive “fanboy” as an insult, it’s perfect!
Also, you’re doing everything alone, i’m just watching you playing it and singing it by yourself
Nah mate, you’re the troll here.
LMAO
And that’s all you can say now, which is typical.
Yeah, yeah, keep prolonging your agony, you frigging troll 😀
Like a troll to act like one would say that.
Ahah yes ?
Oh, you one of those last word guys as well?. Last one lasted 3 months.
I already told you that i won’t stop until you do because i won the argument and the one that should shut his mouth is you, little troll.
Nah, you haven’t won anything. You’ve also proven that your entire stake in this was to “win” at something, so yeah, you are the troll in this conversation, pure and simple.
My stake was just pull whatever you said apart and i managed that, you can’t accept that because you’re a immature little boy who cannot deal with that fact, you can keep going as much as you want with me, you lost, you shut up, it’s how it works.
It’s hilarious that you think you’ve pulled something apart, when all you’ve done is prove that:
1) You wanted to win at something so insignificant and non important.
2) You refuse to acknowledge that you goofed
3) You’ve proven to contain troll like behaviour, especially with mirror retorts and the usual “lulz” replies.
You’re even using the same form of wording I used beforehand with “immature little boy”, it’s like you have nothing new to add besides copying others.
Why don’t you practice what you preach ;). Unless you want to be a hypocrite.
And now he’s trying to turn tables, you can’t do that, not with me, i remember everything you wrote, everything, because i actually never met anybody as mental as you, that’s why at some point i asked if you were trolling, or you were just like that, and i’m still very unsure.
To recap:
-You went mad over the fact i think AdoredTV is an AMD fanboy (maybe you know each other, maybe it’s a friend of yours irl, or maybe you are him :O)
-You tried to defend him in any way possible, so i started to suspect you were also a fanboy, you proved to be a fanboy, and also a butthurt one, you started saying you can’t be a fanboy because you own several nvidia videocards, which proves nothing, and also weakens your “non-AMD-fanboy” proof, i told you i owned both, and i don’t care about brands, that i currently own a 1060
-You saw me posting on a different article, i was talking about a completely different matter, and you re-ignited the fuse, in a ridiculous way
-After this you kept prolonging the discussion about how AdoredTV isn’t a fanboy, and i’m actually one, you started using any possible excuse to attack me
-A day later or two, i was arguing about another different matter with a different person (this very article) you again re-ignited the fuse for the second time, while i was arguing with another persone on, again, a completely different matter, and you kept playing the cards you had left (basically none), and after that you also exhibited in some mirror-climbing, which didn’t work at all, because again, of your insistent insulting (while i kept ignoring the insults) and your poor analysis of the argument.
-At this point i start thinking that you’re either mental or you’re trolling, and i’m still unsure, and you keep prolonging the discussion you lost, further because you just can’t accept you’re salty over something and you won’t let go until someone tells you you’re right, which you aren’t.
-You say that i’m the type of guy who wants the last word, which i am, because i’m right and you’re wrong, and i’ll keep alive the discussion until you, the one who’s in the wrong stops, and you say that the last guy who did that with you lasted 3 months.
Now, you don’t know me, i’m very very stubborn, and i won’t let go until you do, because i’m right and you’re wrong, at least this time.
It might last years for all i care, YOU ARE WRONG, so you close your mouth, otherwise just keep going, i promise you, you won’t win this.
Trying to turn the tables?, coming from you that’s rich.
All you literally have is mirror retorts, insults and arguments. You cannot form any of your own and you know it.
You think I’m mental?, take a look in the mirror at the one who denies and tries to cover up everything. You should check yourself in sometime.
“Now, you don’t know me, i’m very very stubborn, and i won’t let go until you do, ”
Christ dude, that just proves something isn’t right in the head with you. You should seriously get checked out.
Do you realize you basically stalked me on 3 different articles, just because i told you “butthurt fanboy”, most of the normal people might answer bit pissed for a few posts, but no you felt the need of coming on 3 different articles bothering me, and i’m mental, something in my head isn’t right, do you really believe the things you say? “Oh, you one of those last word guys as well?. Last one lasted 3 months” lmao, and you claim to be the normal one here? Are you serious? How can i not believe you could be trolling? Do you realize that talking about this with a few friends, only generated fat laughs?
I’ve given up sometimes, on other arguments because in the end i just understood that it was not worth and that could’ve also been a matter of opinions, but not this i won’t give up this, you have serious problems or either you’re trolling, in both cases you will shut your mouth first, because there’s literally nothing right you did or said.
It’s not even stalking when you know full well that I visit this site daily, as well as being able to converse within each comments section. There is no such rule in this known world that decides on me not being able to bring up a conversation a day prior to what was said.
I don’t know how that little mind of yours works, but it’s definitely not sane and not healthy.
You are wasting all this time to try winning at something that no one will learn of, that no one will ever truly care about and more importantly, that nothing will be gained.
You are casting stones into a pit, where they do not land.
Do you want to know why that last person lasted only 3 months?, because he couldn’t take going back and forth for so long, because he eventually devolved into typing 2-3 letters per post, while I was able to write paragraph upon paragraph with each reply.
At this point this isn’t even an argument, to me it’s about you admitting that you gooef up, that you were wrong to insult me right off the bat as well as others around you. Acting so stubborn won’t land you any merits, it just earns more and more scorn and less empathy.
All it literally takes is a simple “I’m sorry”, to which I can respond in kind, but not doing so however will simply keep the wheel turning, and I am a very, very patient man when it comes to this sort of thing.
Yeah ofc you aren’t really stalking me, you would be a case of immediate hospitalization otherwise, for now “serious case” will suffice, you’re right, there’s no rule, but there’s something called common sense and another thing called maturity, both of which you seem to be lacking of.
Ok so my mind is also very little, alright then, but the one insulting is me.
As i already said, i’ve got plenty to waste for such a weird case as yours, yeah, ahah, you pray nobody will ever find about this (other than the people i showed it to, ofc) otherwise that hospitalization might come faster than expected. What i will gain from this is just finalizing what’s mine already, which is a point (multiple, actually).
That person isn’t surely me, i promise you’ll be the one who gives up first, know that if i don’t answer, probably something bad happened to me, so for this to end your way, i need to be dead lol.
FYI, the one writing bs is now you, so you’ve become what you fought in those 3 months.
Lmao me admitting what? There’s nothing on the internet by the word gooef, but if you meant goofed, you’re only one that goofed up, and i won’t say i’m sorry, because i did and said nothing to feel sorry for, the one insulting here isn’t me, that you and only you, and everybody can see that, unless you delete your posts (which i’m afraid of actually, now that i got to know what’s in that head of yours). Again, acting stubborn will help me secure what’s already mine, lmao you’re the one who should say he’s sorry, you’re completely out of yours, incredible 😀
Keep the wheel turning as much as you want i promise you i’ll help you find the limit to you patience, also, i wouldn’t surely call you men, more like butthurt fanboy kid.
Over
I’m not the one who needs mental therapy dude, you are.
You basically admitted that you won’t stop until I do, that you have some random mental deficiency that prevents you from seeing what you are doing.
Mate, you know nothing of me, so drop the big man act, because it’s not working and no, I won’t be the one who goes first. I’ve outlasted many people throughout my years when it comes to debates, this one is no different.
Keep acting like you’re full of it though, you play the part so well 😉
“I’m not the one who needs mental therapy dude, you are.”
https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/982b75b0073132c4be792a3114ad68d9c1d4bbb10e64714ceb01b714e269a281.jpg
We’re at the fourth time. Alright then 😀
I basically admitted that i won’t stop because you won’t, and (for the 1000th time), i won the argument, you made no points, you only spitted insults (and you keep doing so), you keep acting like a butthurt little fanboy you’re, i keep answering using at least a minimal of common sense to everything you try to do, and you without sense or anything else, you keep answering back, and needless to remind you who’s the one who said “the last guy lasted 3 months”. You joined disqus April 2014, iirc, and you had an argument that went on for three months, so are you sure it’s still me who needs medical attention?
Oh you’re wrong, i know that you’re a butthurt little fanboy and keep acting like so, and keep also confirming that, of course it’s not working, you have mental health problems, how could it ever work. Yeah, keep believing so, takes me literally 10 minutes more than usual on dsogaming, to answer to your nonsensical stamp every day, so bring it on!
I have to play no part, this is just me, i’m very adaptive in these kind of situations, i can either answer extremely calm. or bury you with insults, and since that’s not the case, because after all you don’t really sound like one of those blatant troll, more like a guy with grave health problems.
You’re basically repeating yourself over and over again, to someone who already knows what’s going on and someone who has pointed out that you have a mental issue with knowing not to stop.
Screen shotting a convo also doesn’t help, but I’d add to that being your general paranoia of a change in the comments system.
Deep down inside, you’re full of nothing but empty arguments, empty insults and generally someone who has little to this world, but trying to win tiny insignificant debates, which says a lot about you as a person.
You try to belittle me for days on end, but really you’re just letting me know that you’re more than willing to waste your own time, all while describing to me how you are as a person to converse with (which would add to being a waste of time).
Now I know full well what to expect, which isn’t much, because at this point you’ve come to the circular logic, a few days into extending an already dead topic, but we’ll soon see how long that lasts. The last person ended up slimming his words down to “lulz” and emojis within 7 days. You’re already at the stage of mirroring what I say and repeating what you’ve said over and over again, which shows that you are are starting to crumble.
I wouldn’t say “give up”, because it’s clear that, in time, you will eventually cut down on the replies.
I assume you don’t have a job of any sort, to be working at?, because I’m on holiday, so I’ve actual time to spare (makes me wonder if you’ll copy what I just said, to hide that fact that you are wasting time even if you are at said workplace).
I’m repeating myself, because you are man, you’re still going with the “you insulted me” when i never insulted you.
Screen shooting a part of a conversation is just something i’m doing to show you, mainly, what are you doing, which is “attacking” me on multiple articles, even when sometimes you might even agree with me, or where there might not even be the need, just to keep going with this crusade of yours.
How deep down exactly? Because to me (and not only apparently) i’m answering with much more common sense than you are, and if these debates are so insignificant to you, why keep going? Why prolong it when you could’ve stopped many posts ago (in the nvidia article? Where you actually stopped, and then restarted in the prey one)
Empty isn’t even correct, i’d say more, Non-existent, because i haven’t insulted, more like, i’ve given you epithets (had to google this lol), on the other hand you really insulted me, comparing me to /b/ tards saying i’m ignorant, that my mind is little, and more others, but compared to you i don’t care, because i receive insults constantly, and only i decide whether to insult back or not, and this actually didn’t seem the case, because i only do so when i spot a troll or a console idiot, so yeah.
I won’t last only 7 days, don’t worry, and also i’m not mirroring anything at all honestly, starting to crumble, yeah, sure 🙂
I already stated multiple times, i’m unemployed at the moment (you don’t even remember this :O), so we’re both good, keep going with yours, and i’ll keep going with mine.
“I’m repeating myself, because you are man, you’re still going with the “you insulted me” when i never insulted you. ”
See, still repeating the same dialogue over and over, with nothing new to add to the table of contents.
It’s still rather funny how you call the insult card, when you yourself have tossed insults. Only a troll or a mentally inept person would deny blame.
A crusade you say?, well I don’t exactly have thousands of men under my banner and I’ve no towns to sack, so it can’t be a crusade.
“Attacking me”, lol, you remind me of those SJW’s, the kind with the line of thought that anything spoken to them is a threat against them.
Being unemployed isn’t a good state to be in, but wasting your time while not actively going out to get a job can also appear worse for the image.
There’s nothing more to say, other than repeating that you’re repeating yourself.
Ok then which are these insults i tossed?
Yeah a crusade could also be a one-man crusade you know.
I REMIND YOU of those SJW? You know i had some kind of deja-vu with you, a deja-vu that reminded me of that hugh-mongous thing with h3h3, you were that crazy british-indian lady, and i’m the rudy pantoja guy, you’re saying i insulted you when the max i reached was “butthurt little fanboy” but you said “r*tard”, “coward”, and more stuff, i mean, what should i say, you IN FACT insulted me.
Basically the lady asked for the man’s name, and he answered with a dead joke “Hugh-Mongous” the lady started screaming claming she was sexually harassed, feels familiar to me.
You cannot know if i’m either trying to find a job or not, we’re in 2017, almost nobody resorts to asking in person for a job, people uses also the thousand websites there are to help you looking for a job, and help companies find employers, also yeah, i agree, unemployed isn’t a good state to be in, otherwise i’d have dismissed you much sooner with a real insult, the kind you used.
I bet that is all grandmas turning their computers with steam auto starting.
If only I had more time to actually play games.
Remember once, they told us PC gaming was dying.
The bigger PC gaming gets, the more it’s also supposedly dying. I’ve been hearing it since the 90s.
For all those users they sure aren’t buying very many games
Because it’s one game that got super popular that doesn’t cost a lot, which appeals to the wide PC base without a lot of money, just like the other top 5 games. Call of Duty outsells PUBG on consoles every year by itself. Every other game on PC with the exception of F2P and Counter Strike are barren wastelands because most games sell terrible on PC.
It’s a fact, get over it.
Sorry, she isn’t interested in loser PC gamers. You know, just like every other girl.
I don’t think anyone is enough of a pathetic nobody to need to worry about you clown lol
we all know his girl is drawn onto his hand!!
Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha. PC gamers “real men” hahahahahahahahahahahahabahahabahahahahahahahahahahahaha
kys bag of sht
dissipate tard
So are you the only one interested in pc gamers?
This is a pc only site. Even tho you are here, an average sony drone. Go play fifa or cod. Cuz that is the only crap selling on ps.
I’m only here because GameTard linked me here with a dumb comment, no worries, I’ll leave you to it.
Bye then, go back to your console hive, the drones want you back.
depart stupd turd
And Destiny 2 on just one console will still pull more revenue than PUBG
There’s no way we can possibly know that. While PUBG does cost a lot less clearly, Destiny has the game selling for 2-3x the amount to millions of people, micro transactions that millions of people pay into, plus branding for additional products that are sold like T-shirts and other apparel. Destiny is a monster franchise, I highly doubt PUBG will come close to making as much profit.
“I bet it cost” – means you don’t know and there’s no way for you to know.
gtfo braindamaged
vacate idiot
Must be how Steam manages to stay in business then, by selling no games /rolleyes …and Origin, and GMG and…
ChaosTheory is an Pro Censorship, console only who thinks Dead or Alive is “creepy” and plans to buy an XboneX to play Bayonetta while ignoring the PC port taht came just a few months ago.
The same guys that argues taht any game on Xbone tahts already on PC but no on a PS4 is exclusive.
The same guy who defends chekerboarded relosutions on the Bonex
The same guy
The same guy who Buys Call of Duty every year
His argument always end up either in Moving the Goalposts fallacies and/or ad hominem.
I’d suggest you stop giving him replies next time, hes not worth your time or any though process whatsoever
Aaaaaand like +70% are sitting on cheap or old potato computers or laptops playing card games, mobas, mmo’s, indie games or non-demanding source engine games.
This percentage is what console peasants use to hint that their precious pieces if sh*t boxes of plastics and weaksause hardware are faster than, and calls them “PC gaming rigs”
Pathetic!

“PC software saw a steeper drop of 23%”
It is dying. Having a lot of people on the platform means jack when they don’t buy games. Now go play your irrelevant platform while it still exists.
When PC dies you advise me.
“Having a lot of people on the platform means jack when they don’t buy games”.. exactly!
Just as out of 60 million ps4 sold only ~8 million bought uncharted 4,~1 million bought persona 5, ~3million bought horizon and etc etc.
Using your logic, ps4 is dying mate.
You too go play on your irrelevant platform while it still exists.
No, that’s not at all the same thing. PS4 by itself makes up more than 20% of Ubisoft’s total game sales, for example. Followed by Xbox One, with PC in last with regard to current gen platforms.
Call of Duty sells millions on console. Battlefield sells millions on console. Hell, even the Witcher 3 sold twice as well on console compared to PC.
Also, I love how you say “only” 8 million, “only” 3 million, when to my knowledge, no AAA, $60 PC games have ever even come close to that many copies other than Diablo or Starcraft.
Give it up son.
Pubg alone sold more than any exclusive games on ps4. So what were you saying again?
I’m not going to debate on which games sell more on which platform…the thing is each platform has it’s own audience so while games like cod sell better on console games like overwatch(AAA game btw) sell better on pc.
The reply was to shatter your opinion about pc as a platform dying and your flawed logic. But feel free to make stupid arguments about how pc is dying.
And? Call of Duty sells more on consoles every single year than PUBG.
Unless you can provide specific sales figures, I doubt that overwatch on PC outsold the console versions. If so it’s the exception, not the rule. Pretty much all games from the stable of Ubisoft, EA, Activision, and more sell far more on console. Like I said, even the Witcher 3, a PC first franchise.
Call of Duty sells more is not arguement, it’s a wlll established franchise with a massive fanbase so make a better arguement next time. Also, it’s a known fact that console games cost more, take longer, so console games HAVE to sell more than PC.
Well that’s a good thing because they always do sell far more than PC
Ubisoft is a console oriented Publisher. They cater to consoles more than to PC and that’s their business choice.
You can’t make a blanket statement like games sell better on console than on PC without breaking that down. It’s true but look at what you are saying. Xbox One, Xbox 360, PS4, PS3, Wii U combined sell more than PC. 5 Consoles against PC. Of course the consoles as a whole sell more games than PC. But look at the actual sales and you will see that PC has a higher revenue than Xbox One, Xbox 360 together and PC has a higher revenue than PS4, PS3 together. PC gaming isn’t dying. It continues to lead and is growing year after year.
The only part of gaming that beats PC in revenue is mobile gaming and that’s probably going to continue to grow also.
Thank you for answering with a measured and thoughtful response. But no I’m talking only about PS4 and Xbox One. Those two alone sell more games than PC when it comes to AAA titles. Indies don’t typically track sales numbers so I can’t confirm one way or the other there.
Ubisoft isn’t a console-based publisher. They typically show their games first on PC and optimize quite well for PC with the exception of Watch Dogs 1. Even if that were the case, what say you about the Witcher, a PC first franchise from a PC first developer, selling more on console? If we go further, you can’t just say “well it’s a console based publisher” anytime someone points out games selling better.
PC does make a lot of revenue overall, but that comes from micro transactions from F2P games that are popular in huge, poorer countries like Russia and China. The revenue made there isn’t going to help create the new, great AAA experiences we are talking about here, which is why PC is still an afterthought for a lot of developers sadly.
Disappear fking console tard, go play your deranged platform together with other deranged people, stupid turd
Wow thanks for your eloquent input. I’ve never seen fanboys as scared and defensive as the PC geeks, that’s for sure.
Scared, ahah, disappear bag of sht, i’m a pc geek and i’m proud to be, you remain in your average stupidity and superficiality.
Ironically it’s the PC gamers who are far more superficial, isn’t it? What with their $1000+ rigs, the lights and design, the prettier graphics?
What a hypocrite lol
I don’t understand if you’re being real or, you know the meaning of “superficial”? You stupid console monkey?
Typically used to refer to people who are surface level, skin-deep, care mostly for cosmetics? What way do you use the word, stupid PC geek?
Yeah exactly that, lmao
Do yourself a favour never show your face in here again, you’re making yourself ridiculous at some unreachable point, get out lol.
Yeah so you’re just retarded then. Good luck with that!
get out tard
there is no argument that AAA garbage (EA,acti,ubisoft) sells more on console
because the console playerbase has no spine and no f**king clue they’re being ripped off
it’s true that Witcher 3 INITIALLY sold more on console
but as of right now the PC sales figures are more than half than the console ones (many people bought it on both platforms)
hell i think it was one of the major reasons why so many people abandoned their BS4’s and decided to go PC gaming
witcher on PS4 is almost like a different game, loading time takes forever, the characters look extremely low res, draw distance is laughable, no mods, you LOAD each time you enter a building
and exit and you cannot import a save
PS4 is at it’s last legs, with the BS4 “pro” being lackluster as hell and the whole “fourkay” charade got blown out of proportion + sony decided to increase the price for basic online access
people finally saw consoles for what they were, a restrictive crappy locked toy that you play games at the lowest setting
PC is now the standard, consoles are dying, there is already rumors about a PS5 being in production, and once the people realize it doesn’t have any backward support it will be the final blow to the consoles life-cycle
you can lie your way out of this, but i’m pretty sure you’ll realize that Sony is garbage (just like Microsoft and nintendo) and going free market (PC) is the only path to gaming (backwards support, different markets, cheap keys, GOG drm-free, high standards etc…)
i know, it outsold both Xbox and PS4 as of right now
they are, my peasant friends have starting buying PC comps and leaving their consoles to gather dust
the consensus that 30 FPS is unacceptable and dated is already realized
not just the 30 FPS, paying for online,mods, backwards comptability, steam
it’s all just so juicy and enticing to them, when i showed my friend nexus mods who was awestruck and depressed how much wasted on his crappy console
and now he’s buying every game he owned on steam, because he fully abandoned his PS4 to dust gathering and staying a PC gamer
he enjoys it so far, because components are more affordable than they ever were
Seriously where you saw it.
i believe it was one of the articles that said they made like 250 million dollars on the witcher 3 (combined sales from 2015 til march 2017)
i’m not sure they have exact numbers because of the steam/gog split (also retail, which was DRM-free but came with optional gog galaxy installer)
The majority of gamers don’t want to play on PC. It’s got so many issues and it’s so inconvenient. No one is going to just leave the money on the table. Even if Microsoft leaves the console space, Sony and Nintendo aren’t going anywhere anytime soon. And since this gen of consoles is selling even better than the last one, rest assured consoles will be around to keep the PC irrelevant for a good, long time.
Hey, with PC being the second most profitable gaming platform, it surely won’t be irrelevant for a good, long time. Plus, PC always pioneered technical advances in gaming. You know, you console users has a lot to thank us. You started demanding more than that meager 30 FPS ‘cinematic experience’ because of us. Now, you demand 4K. Later, it’ll be 4K@60 FPS. All thanks to PC 😉
But I have to agree with that a lot of gamers are not smart enough to game on PC. Well, it’s their loss I guess. They’re missing the best gaming experience.
PC gaming is the worst gaming experience I’ve ever had by far. When everything works, it’s great. There’s almost never a day where everything works. Which is why it’s irrelevant and treated as a second class platform by developers.
You should actually be thanking console gamers, who actually buy the games that give developers enough resources to waste on a PC version
The majority of computers in hospitals and the military don’t use windows doofus. And everyday business like word processing is hardly as complex or demanding as gaming. Basic tasks have a lot fewer things that could go wrong
For gaming, it doesn’t. Things constantly go wrong
Yes it does. I have owned two gaming PCs and have several friends who do. It’s a terrible user experience
It’s not trolling it’s a fact. You think it’s trolling because you’re sensitive and need to defend your precious PC at all costs. Pathetic
He’s a retrded kid lol
You’re* dumbass
“There’s almost never a day where everything works.”
That’s because simple minded console lowbobs like you shouldn’t mess with things you can’t really handle or understand. Just do yourself a favor and keep to your “press a button and play a game” system and leave PC gaming to those who have sufficient brains for it. Now, crawl back from where u came…
Typical console gamer trying to figure out how to play games on PC below……..
https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/d30404d5ea95cfcaf0de2c58538732c5d9f0fc8553802990884df053becc3439.jpg
Yeah I’ll leave it to you losers with enough time so sit and do nothing but play video games all day. Have a good time 😉
Well, you’ve just proved my point that not everyone is skilled enough to properly game on PC. Like most good things in life: sometimes you’ve to work a bit harder to get it working.
I had a brief experience in the console world too; it was awful. The whole experience seemed subpar compared to PC. Not only the graphics or the framerate; even the sound, the absence of ENB mods or SweetFX, well, the absence of mods at all. But the controls… jeez. I mean, how can people even play a shooter (first or third) with a controller??? Autoaim, quickturn?? Pile of BS. Where’s the skill? The lack of choice in fancy peripherals? Come on, nothing beats the looks and feel of some Razer gaming keypad, mouse, keyboard, arcade stick and controller, etc. The lack of customization in the chassis?
Consoles seemed so subpar. And mind you, developers don’t waste many resources optimizing in PC because the nature of the platform: the community is smarter in fixing things themselves, there’s always a mod that fix this or that, or it the game framerate chugs you can always upgrade.
And again, PC won’t be irrelevant for a good long time: after all, it’s the second most profitable gaming platform, it’s been around since forever and the greatest game library (PC was born with backwards compatibility you know) ensures it remains the platform of choice for gamers who like, well, tons of games and the best gaming experience.

laughed my a s s off, haven’t heard this piece of sad propaganda since “best looking pixels you’ll ever see”
jeez, and i thought the console base were just spoiled children, but now i’m positive they’re also mentally challenged
Don’t give attention is just a consoletard.
To be fair, Steam is pretty crap itself.
The social part of the internet is like some kind of virus that’s been spreading on videogames too, expect every videogame to be more and more social, at a point that streamers, streaming, sharing, friend lists, and everything exists as social, will be more polished than the game itself.
I basically started gaming with multiplayer games, almost 15 years ago, but it was different back then, anyway, there’s still some decent multiplayer game, i suggest dota 2 more than anything, but it requires patience and knowledge, don’t expect to jump right in as if playing rocket league or even csgo, which are both ok games, but beware of their communities, they’re often the cause someone hates a game or stops playing one.
not just social, in multiplayer games they always shove microtransactions
weather skins, pay 2 win, or simply dumb lootboxes containing both.
since Microtransaction in single player games have met with strong negativity
the focus to developer a crappy pew-pew simulator where you got raging 13 year old’s with their dad’s credit card loaded on steam buying crappy skins and whatnot while streaming their crappy gameplay to twitch
it’s awful, games like league and Dota stream and make money by the billions
while the developers does F**k all and just create new skins
while honest working devs work in harsh conditions and getting pennies for their effort (read up the story about the Metro last light and their horrible working condition)
it creates a vortex of greed on steam, “developers” who just want easy money
and the 1% who actually works for a good single player experince
and guess who gets rich in the end of the day?
Yeah, as always, money ruin everything. Anyway, Dota 2 is a good game aside from shtty skins and stuff like that.
it was and it still is, the community is toxic as $hit
and they keep f**king up the balance of the game (there are no orb effects, item recipes constantly changing [for the worse] not to mention nerfed heroes getting more and more nerfs [earth spirit]
but toxicity is it’s biggest problem by far
100% Agreed, also i’m not a real lover of the game, i played it mostly because my friends were, even tho i have ~1300hrs at this point, but haven’t touched it for weeks now, i’m more a FPS kind of guy.
i have 3993 hours, and the moment i uninstalled i felt liberating freedom
that game has sucked so many hours of my life, it’s like ciggerates
addicting, expensive and it will only give you cancer
Dota in a nutshell (same goes to CSGO)
Again, 100% agreed.
I played like 5100hrs of TF2 (competitive ofc, only 200 hrs of those are pub servers probably)it felt so good reaching a certain level of skill in the competitive, but the higher i went the more cancer i got from the community (i reached the top division, but it was like licking chernobyl’s nuclear core, from the cancer i was getting lmao).I dropped it more than 2 years ago, i felt like coming to life again in a long time.
Man. Faq… reading something like this… its scary. A game should never give you that kind of feeling. Sometimes i rage when i have an afk on my team(not a particular game tho) but i always want more. I never felt the needs to walk away from my game.
Yeah it’s scary, the game is good, but pretty much everything that floats around it is fcked up, and at some point you have to let it go.
When a product reached this kind of success it only has 2 options. Keep going and become a new gold standard or faq it up so bad that the entire dev team is gonna be punished for life. Idk… its very good or very bad.
I bought the game a couple of day ago and shooting is fun as freaking faq. its done really good. I mean… its fun. And its quick. You join, Play and you are done. Time will tell i guess
Thing is, with SP games, anyone can play them at any given time, while MP games are often played on a near constant basis due to their inherit nature. To play a multiplayer game, you need to play it online and with other people. If there is no online or the server is cut off, then you simply have no MP to play.
Sp games aren’t going to magically die out. Look at Destiny and Destiny 2, as well as CoD and Battlefield, plenty play those on PC and consoles while still playing SP games.
Bye then, go back to your console hive, the drones want you back.
Yet ea and bungie don’t want to put their games on steam. time to do some house cleaning at those company’s
Keep on being salty 🙂
