To the people who play on PC and don't own a console, do you miss having one?
Well, in my case I have a Switch and I really don't miss having a PS5 or much less a Series X. PC is my main platform for everything and the Switch is my console on the go.

But what about y'all ?

I have a gaming PC and never owned any console. I just grew up on flash games mostly. Never missed having a console though, and trying to get good with a controller at this point would be hopeless.

No

I have the Mini NES but I never use it, so no.

Not in the slightest.

I've never had a console in my entire life.. It all feels complicated. Even computers do feel complicated to me, but I do know a thing or two about them from having one, so.. It's better for me than having console.

I can't even imagine grabbing a controller to play a game.. Feels like a total nuisance.

What's the difference between grabbing a controller and hitting up a game to sitting at a desk and booting up a game?

I play PC with a gamepad and I don't plan on going back to console. If my computer got stolen I'd rather work overtime to get another pc, instead of digging the xbox outta the attic.

Xbox LFG is cool but that's about it. I can use Xbox LFG anyway when my gamepad is plugged in so I don't even get the point of console now.

Not really, my current pc can do anything the ps4 could. I do hate that all my xbox 360 dongles died the same day however. It makes me wonder if there wasn't a built in timer to kill it.

I got enough games on Steam to not think about getting one.
But it would be nice if I had PS1 that I broke, you know if I didn't break it. My brother has his PS2.

Nope.

Nearly all of the games that I play or am interested in now-a-days are available on PC. And I've never really cared all that much about the upsides of consoles. Plus I became a PC player relatively early on, even while I was still big on my consoles.

I have both. I only use my PlayStation to watch Blu-Ray Movies or Series.

Well i can run the 'pc versions' of Godhand and Animal Crossing so no need for consoles
My Xbox "whatever-series" One-X-?-720-version 2.3 is pretty much a glorified Blu-ray player.

My Nintendo Switch and N64 only get used for drunken parties.

And PC gets used pretty much every day for everything.

I miss having the desire to own a console.

Traditionally, they were much simpler, actually.

Back when you still had to obsessively read system requirements for PC games, you just had to make sure your SNES games had the Nintendo logo on them. And the game started as soon as you turned the power on.

Of course, that was a long time ago and none of that applies to either anymore, lol.
