hehe well I don't want to bash on console gamers, but honestly who wants complexity in a console.
its only a bad thing when they make the game for console then make a PC version for it, it will not be as "good" as in not as immersive and time consuming as I would like (begin a PC gamer who never touched a console game pad since Sega)
Where did you come up with your theories? Who wants complexity in a console? How about people that just don't feel like doing what they consider wasting money on a PC but like RPGs? I can use weak arguments too, such as saying shooters were originally for PCs only, and they are simple games, so therefore PC players must not want complexity. If someone can give me
decent reasoning as to why console players are a dumbed-down lot who hate complexity, taking your arguments more seriously would be a bit easier, but as it stands, such accusations seem to be nothing more than wild accusations made up by some elitist crackpots as soon as the "sad day in human history" where consoles became popular came about. I'd also like to point out how similar certain PC players are to console players, yet they still view themselves as the great minority of gaming. You've got PC players refusing to share their exclusive goods just as you have console players (from all sides) doing the same. You've got PC players who think they're better than those playing other platforms just as PS and XBox fans that do the same, and not one of these sides has a shred of proof, just wild accusations and a false sense of superiority. My favorite video game genre of the 10+ years I've been playing video games have been RPGs. I am a nearly PS and RPG exclusive player, and I resent what I view as thesis statements with no evidence.
How any of this is related to improving upon Oblivion (in a thread that just seems to exist to imply Oblivion was a crappy game and that Bethesda made a mistake by not rehashing everything from Morrowind) is beyond me, but Morrowind was primarily a PC game, and that didn't stop Daggerfall fans from complaining Morrowind was dumbed-down and if PC players are all as great as some of them claim they are, then please explain all the piracy involved with PC games while I, a console player, have never illegally stolen a game nor would I even consider doing such a thing. Yes, there are console players who pirate games and yes, not even nearly all PC players pirate games, but there is some good evidence right there that there are plenty of idiots and honest people among both groups. One of the reasons why companies are focusing less on PCs is due to piracy issues. There are plenty of criminal-minded morons on that side of the whole debate. You should "thank" some of them, not consoles and console players.
