It might just be because I haven't seen a single good game hit consoles in the last 4 years but I could care less about shitty console ports.
if they don't think it's worth all the time and money it takes to optimize a game well for pc they won't bother. It's a business. If getting it good enough to run on a 980 is 'good enough' then that's all that matters.

And optimizing really is a lengthy and expensive process. If they aren't expecting to make many times the expense in pc game sales of the title they are right not to put too much effort into it.

Just look at GTA V, they didn't find 'the secret' to optimizing games for pc, they just invested a lot into it because they knew it would do well. Not worth it for most games.


Oh wow

what is so hard to start with bare minimum components that compares to console

You really don't get it

It would take a prohibitive amount of time and money to get every console game running the same on pc equivalent hardware; basically just as much as it took to get it to work on consoles to begin with, with less profit to be had, and even if they did do it, it would be at resolutions and fps that wouldn't be acceptable to pc gamers.

I'm not the one making assumptions here, you're the one who thinks optimizing for pc is as simple as pressing a button and that they should just press that button on lower end hardware causing it to magically run better optimized all-around.

Lol
Maybe follow some developers and see what components they are using while making these pc game ports
please tell me why on earth they be using 500 to 700 dollar cards

Just don't want same shit going on again from developers where requirements keep raising on pc like they did on 360 ports

i already did.. you don't listen..
it would take much more work to get it optimized on weaker hardware.
now you tell me why they would foot that bill if they didn't think the game was going to be a smash hit on PC?

yeah that old p3 core that's been pushed to its absolute limit over the last 20 years, and already plateau'd at sandy bridge is going to win in the long run against a brand new arch with at least another decade of big improvements and optimizations to the core and process to come

hell it's still stuck at the 4ghz mark, that's how immature and young Ryzen is.
