    On topic, I agree to some extent. PC being the glorious gaming master race gives some people the god complex, but there's only one god and that is Joe Pesci.

    TL;DR Someone was too poor to build/buy a gaming PC.

    Talk about missing the point. The PC has the 'advantage' of being able to run programs that are able to interact with XIV in unintended ways. Anyone whose read the various 'hunt radar' threads can tell you that. This is their argument against the PC, not the expense of it (my laptop spanks XIV 2.# and it's coming up on 2 years old) but the adaptability of it. You'd have a really hard time doing that on a console because of the way it's software operates and how you can't access said software without modding the console and potentially getting it blocked by the online service offered by the maker (unupdated PS3s can't use PSN being an example). The original post probably has a good PC, but you'd be stupid not to know that PCs are a breeding ground for game hacks.

    Well how does one feel when they spent thousands on gaming PC's only to be playing the same game with people who only payed a small fraction of that for their console. Maybe its a "feeling burned" complex.

    It feels pretty good when I pay $6 to get a bundle of 15 games that on console would cost me $600.

    Or the fact that the game run much smoother, is much more prettier and isn't going to be limited by hardware for the future updates ?
