> Take Witcher 3 - both me and my significant other were playing it at the same time. Me on PC, while she played on PS4. She was a good 5-6 hours into the game, while I was still fucking around with my drivers, overclocking the GPU and CPU, going into bios every 5 minutes just to make sure I definitely have a locked 60 fps experience.

I've never has this issue when playing games on PC? Usually I can just buy a game, wait for the thing to download and get on with playing it within 10 minutes of it being installed. Usually I change a few settings such as resolution and I put it in windowed mode, and maybe reduce some graphics settings, but that's it. I very rarely have to mess with drivers, and I've certainly never had to overclock my CPU or GPU, nor did I have to enter the BIOS just to play a game. And if the game isn't at 60 fps? Who gives a shit, as long as it's a playable 30 fps or more then I'm happy just playing the game. PC gaming for me isn't about the superior graphics or framerate, it's the fact that I can have a game on one monitor whilst having easy access to a web browser or IRC on another so I can do something during loading screens. It's the fact that I can mod the game to add new features, especially in strategy or management games.
