What if (PS4 and PC become seperated)

[MicahZerrshia]

ESO does it and it is beautiful. Esp since they prioritize us PC gamers giving us patches earlier and the versions are optimized differently. It makes the console players a little salty but generally if they switch to PC they realize why its done.

I would rather have a game optimized for PC with a few extra features they cant do on consoles. Doesn't have to be anything major but could be as minor as textures, draw distances, add ons, etc.

When it comes to community I don't really think its that big of a deal, I mean how social is anyone in this game anyway. Its mostly Hi and Bye if that. Guilds can and do exist on PC and Console only servers and can be just as big. You can't always play with your rl friend but you can't if you own different consoles either since console companies cant even play nice with each other.

As a PC player there is nothing more irritating than being told we cant have something because of console limitations. It's like being told you can't have a car and you need to just walk because your little sister can't drive yet. Different machines should have different versions. But as we know the East is incredibly behind the times when it comes to PC gaming so there is no way SE is going to even consider this making it moot.

No offense but you want to be the spoiled child. You say we get salty yet you seem more salty in your post. Why would you want extra features "they can't do on consoles"? Other than you know, making yourself feel special?

And sociality is a personal thing. It is normal i limit my sociality with random people because people can be toxic to everything, so yeah saying hi to random people can be enough most of the time, but i had many runs with random people sooo fun too. But i am very social within my FC and friends so, knowing i may not play with them because PC deserves better(?) would make the game unpleasant for me.

Also, most PC players don't have the car you mention as well. Most people don't earn top money so maybe they don't have a 2018 model car but 2010 ones, if you know what i mean (i don't understand cars at all). So making a ultra 4k game for PC so only %2-3 of PC players may experience really seems like a good strategy for a company, yes. Like i said, most PC players i know play at normal or low res settings. Maybe i have poor friends idk (joking, no offense ).

Anyway, this topic is not meant for "pc master race" in my opinion. I think everyone would agree the game is fine as it is and separating the consoles would make the game divided. Well, unless you want to brag for things console people or pc people may not get ofc.

In the same logic, i want specific rewards to ps4 players please because they play on a lesser platform. ty SE.

ESO does this actually extremely badly, they neglect their console player base very harshly (late fixes, few patches, unoptimized gameplay, no QoL improvements). Which is surprising, considering that 2/3 of their player base (by their own admission) plays the game on consoles.

I was pleasantly surprised when starting this game to find a PS4 version running as well as the PC version. I don't want that to change and, seeing how popular the PS4 is in Japan, this will probably never change.

You don't need to separate platforms to optimize for them. Back when PS3 was in the mix, there were quite a few features that worked differently on that than they did on PS4/PC. There aren't many differences now, because the capabilities are pretty much on par, but I think the PC version has multiple options for high res / low res, where PS4 doesn't need them.
