      I’m 46 and a PC gamer, but I don’t give a shit what platform anyone plays on. This “PC master race” stuff is infantile bullshit and needs to disappear.

        Technically, the members of the subreddit claim the name is ironic, but you’d be hard-pressed to tell by the way they often act.

        I know that some people take it ridiculously seriously, but for me, it’s just a preference.

        I have a Wii that I don’t use anymore and a PS4 that I only use for playing Rock Band rarely, so it’s not like I’m a real purist or otherwise extremist about it 🤷

        PC master race is about knowing it’s the best gaming platform, not about owning one. “it’s not about the hardware on your rig, it’s the software in your heart.”

          You’re being ironic, aren’t you? I can’t tell. At any rate, the best gaming platform is the one that plays the games you want, the way you want to play them, at the price you can afford. For me, that’s the PC, although many pcgamingmasterracers would look down their noses at my setup because it can’t do 60fps in all games at all times. But I’ve learned enough about how personal preferences work to actively avoid associations with elitist crap like ‘pc gaming master race’.

      Same on both counts! Awkward fist bump? 🤜

        Bold of you to assume I’m capable of a fistbump that isn’t awkward. Emoticon goes here, I can’t be arsed figuring out how.
