That you now know that a new product is being sold. Your arguments don’t make sense. How are people supposed to know what to buy if they don’t find out about it somehow, someplace? That place being Twitch, Steam, a webpage review, their best friend, a curated list by a popular YouTuber, etc. It is irrelevant. There’s nothing special on whether someone is a console or PC gamer. No one just buys whatever X source tells them to buy. That’s a desire to dehumanize someone just because they play games different than you. That’s intolerance and tribal thinking of the stupidest order.
Not personally but I think that tribalism is one of tools used by mega corporations to implement abusive practices. So claims that “console gamers will buy anything they’re told to” is a bad take that deviates conversations to put a blame on console gamers that is not honest.
I don’t blame them, the tactics used are manipulative by design and should be regulated further.
Even ignoring the market research, its an easy observation. Most gamers buy a few or less games per year. Them games usually being the big AAA ones marketed to them.
Consoles are brought up a lot because that is what is most popular with the average gamer, I mentioned it’s not exclusive to console. PC has however always had more success with indies and has less of that type of customer, though that seems to be shifting a bit recently with the PC market overtaking consoles.
It’s not tribalism to merely point things out about different segments. Not everything someone says is an attack.
I also never said
“console gamers will buy anything they’re told to”
I dont know why we are fabricating quotes or falsely insinuating.
Yes. You did. We weren’t discussing stores advertising, but the effects.

Have you been personally affected by this? I didnt mean to offend you.
