PC or Console ?

[cypher]

Hello guys, do you think Mass Effect is better played on PC or Console ?

Apperantly console is better, because people on console are already playing where as we are still stuck in a holding pattern

240 FPS cap @ 8K

I mean, if you game at 8K then you are like 0.00001% of the gaming community right now. So hats off to you.

I want to add, 1080 makes up 65% of the Steam population according to the monthly survey. People above 1080 are around 11-13% and the rest is below 1080 or unknown. That's why the Additional Notes under Recommended specs is always 1080/60 fps if the developer decides to include that little detail (Capcom's Monster Hunter World and Square Enix's Outriders for example). They cater to the majority which equals more money for them when everything is said and done. For a company looking to gain the most money, it is the most logical choice.

To OP: I'd say PC. It'll have the usual robust graphical options and a modding community which is absent from console games, except a few like Skyrim and Fallout. Hardware isn't an issue for the new consoles. The newest consoles have a GPU equivalent to a 2080 and a good PC CPU for comparison is AMD's Ryzen 7 3700X. The newest consoles (Xbox Series X and PS5) also use the much faster M.2 SSD as well which is not present in the last gen consoles (Xbox One and PS4).

It's always like that. It's 11am here in Australia, the shops are around the corner I could literally just buy the game on xbox or ps and play it but I don't care.

Happy to wait another 12 hours or so, once the game arrives you never care about x amount of hours difference between versions. I prefer to play it on my PC even though I have a PS5 and Series X.

That's true but you got to remember that there are a ton of people that install Steam on hardware that can barely run 720p. I know I put Steam on my Surface Laptop just to play binding of issac and stuff like that and all of that get's put in the survey data. We are not comparing 1:1 here. I mean we are not comparing 100% Mass Effect console users to 100% Mass Effect Steam users, we are comparing them to the entire Steam registry which skews the results.

It dosnt really matter for LEGENDARY edition unless you want to download some lame mods that probably wont work. However in 3 you can cheat your money in MP and not get banned (PC) F that pay2win noise.

Fun fact for you: those "lame mods that probably won't work" are the entire foundation for the legendary edition that you will be playing.
