I don’t speak about of “some barely noticeable thing that has unnecessary impact on performance” but important graphic options like the view distance, quality of the texture, tessellation, frame rate, resolution, weather effects, particle effect, etc. 
Ah yes, but to clarify I do in my original post to which you replied albeit I did not really mention it. 
I would not worry myself much that Warhorse will be cutting features off the PC version just for the sake of the game looking same on all platforms. At the moment it does not look to be their way of doing it at least.
Ah, ok.
I really hope that Warhorse will not cut PC features and at the moment the game seems awsome.
I see that you’re not a backer, just like me. What tier you will pledge?
WOW!!! Lucky man!
Witcher 2, Payday 2, War thunder, mainly smaller games that sell much better on the pc. The only games that make any money on console anymore are AAA titles. Mean while on pc you have indie devs selling millions of copies. I’m willing to bet KC:D will do better on the pc as well.
Yes it is happening, the “next gen” consoles have not sold very well. Mean while the PC gaming market is doing better than it ever has.
No you’re right, its not a lie but pure ignorance. You do not hardly need 1000+ dollars to out pace a console, or get the advantages pc has to offer.
Around 5 years ago i spent 550 on a pc. That pc is about equal with the Xbox one and it has so much more to offer.
Better graphics, smoother game play, more games, cheaper games, free online, mods, ect.
You may not think so, but the fact is they are declining.

downgrades happen and are in most cases unavoidable for triple a development. however, i think platform parity must be avoided at all costs. microsoft and sony wil be pushing for it, so i hope war horse is able to come to a good compromise. if the consoles can’t handle certain things, then delete them from the console version, but not the pc, just so console crowd can feel good about their inferior hardware. thank you.

Exactly. Especially in Japan PS4 didn’t sell how Sony expect, so japanese games developers opened to the PC gaming. Now we have lot of japanese games on Steam and many more will arrive.

Don’t seeing it don’t mean that the decline of consoles don’t happen.

The RNG was on my side that day.
RNG? What is it? 
Random Number Generator.
Ah ok, I understand… but what does the NRG have to do with this thread?
I stopped commenting this thread, because it was pointless. @Jordan_Joestar and others were ignoring the numbers and facts, but the newest replies are totally wrong. I will start with sales.
This is totally wrong. PS4 is the fastest selling console ever. “After 21 months, combined Xbox One and PS4 hardware unit sales are close to 50% higher than the combined sales of Xbox 360 and PS3 after 21 months on the market.” (taken from NPD). PC gaming market is not doing that good. Yes, the amount of money generated from this platform is higher that it was, but the pc sales are going down every year. There is drop in sales year-on-year of about 10%. Only company which has higher sales in 2015 than in 2014 is Apple. If developers will look on statistics and they will see that consoles are doing well as never before, but the pc market is falling down, why should they focus more on pc rather than consoles?
Witcher 2 is a bad example. It was released only on Xbox360 and on PC it was released on 17 May 2011 and for Xbox 360 on 17 April 2012 so there wasn’t such a hype after a year since the pc version was released. Even the indie devs are doing better on consoles. For example minecraft. In 2014 PC version reached 15 milion, but in that same year Xbox360 reached 12 milion and together with XboxOne it was more than 20 milion. Add to this number PS3 and PS4 sales and pc is than not the best selling platform. Most of the indie developers want their games on consoles, because they know that they will get more money there. Reason why some indie games are not on consoles is that they don’t have enough money to put it there or the game is not suitable on gamepad.
In some podcast Dan said that 1 milion copies is a small number and I doubt that they would generate much more than 1 or 1.5 milion copies only on PC. So If they want to succeed they need their game on consoles. You cant forget that KC:D is also AAA game.
I have a question, BlackBull: Why, what you think and say is different from the datas and the interviews that we read on internet?
What you write on this thread are the same thing that all console fans think: "PC gaming is dying and don’t guarantee a good revenue from the games."
Unfortunately your hopes don’t represent the real facts and if lots of developers around the world start to create games even fo PC and publishers start to publish console exclusive on PC, there will be a reason.
Look at Star Citizen, a PC game that cause the envy and rage on every console gamer, and how many money have collected (the development is far to be bad as many web magazines usually say. It grows slow but very well). Will be interesting to know how many backers for Kingdom Come: Deliverance are PC gamer or console gamers. I will not surprise if all the AAA games from Kickstarter are backed in the greatest part from PC gamers.
Anyway, your free to think what you want but the reality goes in the opposite direction. Enjoy your console as long as you can, because in the next 10 - 15 years we will see them disappear like dinosaurus. 
Because it is all the time the same last 4/5years. PC sales are going down. Comapnies have problems to sell their hw. These reports, datas are every where. If you dont believe me just type in google: pc sales are going down and you will see that I am not lying. I verified my statement before I wrote that in my previous reply, but I am not sure if you done that too.
I am not saying that pc gaming is dying. I am just saying that pc market is not that poweful to cover all those games. Starcitizen is a bad example. If think there is only 600-700 thousand backers/players and that is nothing. Only reason why starcitizen generated that much is that they offered in game items for real money.
To make it clear I have gaming pc, which I use on playing arma3, dayz and various strategies, but I have also XboxOne for games like forza, halo, nhl… So dont call me console fan. I hate this “console fans” war against “pc master elite”. It is just stupid. Consoles are much much more profitable. That is fact and dont point out that there is some kind of game which has higher profit on PC, because I could give you hundreads games where consoles has up to 30x higher sales than pc. If you want the best graphics, resolution than play on pc, but dont be angry on console, because thanks to them developers can rapidly increase their budget and thanks to this games are (if you skip ubisoft) better. When AAA game on pc sell 1 milion copies than it is huge succeed, but on consoles it would be failure. Do you really think that 1 milion would be enough to employee 1000 developers which are ussually working on AAA games? Without consoles forget on performace motin capture, orchestrial music …

Jesus… you’re right, this thread is pointless now.

One of the greatest bullshit I’ve ever read in my life. 
If you see new technology on console games is thanks to PC.
You say that report datas are everywhere but you have never posted them. Also, if developers open their production to the PC gaming and the new hardware (AMD with 16 nm and 20 nm technology) is very awaited.
PC gaming risked to die lots of year ago but now it’s resurrected from his own ashes like a phoenix.
Do you really think that 1 milion would be enough to employee 1000 developers which are ussually working on AAA games?
Depending. CD Project RED was a small group when the first two The Witcher came out and the great success arrived from PC, than, no PC no The Witcher 3 on consoles.
GTA V sold 1 million copies only on Steam in the first 24 hours. It isn’t a wrong example like The Witcher 2 on PC because of hype. Remember that GTA V for PC came out 1 years later than on old consoles!
I want best graphic, so I play on PC…
I want good plots and pameplay, so I play on PC…
Do you really think that this new games are AAA for their quality? Nope, Ithink they’re AAA for how many money the developers and publishers used for TV spot and for buy good reviews on internet web magazine.
You can consider The Order 1886 a good game?.. Excuse me, can you consider it a game?!
Cinematographic games: other word to “We take our customers for a fools”.
I’m not angry for the consoles, that are only obsolete pieces of low technology, I’m annoyed by those people who saying fake things about PC gaming and continue to defend the policy of the relative companies.
Many console gamers seems like slaves who aren’t happy to choice to be free but hope that free people become slaves like them. 
Anyway, my childrens probably will never see a console when they will born, except on the history books, but if PC game will die as you hope, I prefer stop playing videogames instead to return to be a console gamer… but it will never happen. 
well I must agree, we seem to be having a circular argument over and over and I can sense the tension growing, with the addition of unnecessary flags being thrown around I have determined this thread has out lived its usefulness.
