>primarily a console thing that took decades for the PC to catch up to.
The only thing PC needed to catch up with was mainstream relevance. As a PC gamer who started in 2010 when I was a Sega and Sony fanboy before that, I made the switch to the PC when building a PC became ridiculously cheap with Pentium 4 and 9800's dunking in price. Humble Bundle and Steam were having ridiculous fucking sales they were begging people to buy games for pennies on the dollar. One thing is inevitable though, consoles still dominate the mainstream market despite clearly having no technical advantage beyond perceived convenience. PC gaming has it's own demographic that is being taken care of despite having the most open platform where you can choose how to play your games.

I lost sight of what this thread is even about. Consoles were always about catering to the consumer demographic. Of course, it also tried to bring cutting edge tech at an affordable price which is admirable. N64, Saturn, and PlayStation are console that pioneered but also cemented a lot of bad industry standards that wouldn't be apparent until 6th gen and later.

Just played the intro fight for it. How the fuck have I not come across this game yet? It handles really good with the parry system and all.
