Everybody says what they believe; that's why they say it. The people on that Subreddit aren't wrong for having their own (often reasonable) convictions, even if you don't share them. That's what DrLitch means by "Live and let live." If you don't agree with them, nobody is forcing you to care about what they say.

The problem is they want people to hate on consoles even if people like me are not into PC Gaming. Are they biased?

Sure they our biased. We all are. We all form opinions based on our experiences, but that doesn’t make them facts.

I personally feel that Nintendo is the best video game franchise of all time, and could give you a bunch of reasons why....but it still doesn’t make it a fact.

You are shorting yourself by just listening to what others say. Try things for yourself and form your own opinion.

Indeed there is bias. Let those that hate consoles hate them. Many of course do not harbor an irrational hate for consoles, they merely prefer gaming on PC's. Stating a preference does not necessarily correlate itself with hate. There are two million subscribers on that subreddit. The main page article you reference was written by one person. Hopefully that should give you some perspective on it.

Please relieve yourself from the mindset that sheep must necessarily follow the herd.

The thing is I do not have the best experience with PC Gaming due to virus, malware, other issues, etc. Which is why I stick with dedicated consoles/handhelds. And the odd thing is the PC Master Race says they are unbiased when they are not.

So I should like what I like and that it?

It seams to me that many people are that mindset that sheep must necessarily follow the herd. As many do not want to think for them self these days.

I got bitten by a dog, deep gashes on my hand, still scars on my hand. Had to get rabies shots. Guy told me his dog did not bite.

Indeed.

Regarding PC gaming though, I forgot to tell you one thing -

When sales show up you can really get good games for cheap. Like a couple of bucks for a game like Axiom Verge. There is so much good indie stuff out there. I think the Switch gets most of them but Nintendo are not as generous with sales. When I bought Sonic Mania on the Switch I had to facepalm when I saw it on Steam for $9. Your laptop or mac could play most of these games. Just a thought. True, the caveat is not having a physical copy, but on my PS4 I do not even know what a physical copy means anyway, what with all the 10GB/3GB or whatever large file updates it seems having the disc copy is moot....

That someone claiming something does not make it true.
