The vast majority? That's just not true. Probably 10%. The issue here is you seem to think the good games are the popular/most profitable ones. I'm pretty sure that's incorrect. VNs, MMOs, gambling games, etc. All that shit exists, is profitable, and is popular. Yet your focus seems to be on high end stuff for some reason. I am not the one cherry picking.

I played many on shitty office hardware back in the day.

Mobile games being different I'll grant.

edit: I think I get it, this is just a "PC master race" thing, isn't it? People are upset I'm not doing the circlejerk thing and pumping their egos for them. I'm too old for that bullshit.

Do you remember farmville?

Also, most of those high end games? Also available on console. It's the weird, not-high-end stuff that is usually unique to PC, with a few exceptions.
