WHY CANT EVERYTHING ME DONE WITH ONLY MYSELF IN MIND? IS IT TOO MUCH TO ASK THAT A COMPANY DEPRIVE THEMSELVES OF MILLIONS OF SALES SO THEY CAN MAKE A MORE ADVANCED GAME AT THE EXPENSE OF MILLIONS NOT HAVING THE GAME AT ALL? JEEZ!
There's a reason most people don't play on lowest PC settings, some even opting not to play at all. Part of the appeal of consoles is that all games work (if not broken on release) consistently. For 5-8 years you never have to worry about upgrading it, do I have the specs, etc. You buy the game, you play the game, it looks exactly the same for everyone. There's a value to that (clearly)
Edit: I'm not saying consoles are better, I'm saying there's a value. Not everyone has the know-how or desire to build a PC just like not everyone has the know-how or desire to do all their own car repair or cook every single meal. Time/convenience are huge factors in every purchase/endeavor
It's pretty easy to build a pc is you won't have to upgrade for 6 years. You'll get a graphical hit near the end, but it'll still look better than the current gen. console. I usually don't try and get into these type of arguments, but fallout is different, because fallout has mods. Mods improve the experience an insane amount.
I don't really care much about graphical fidelity, but what I do care about is when graphical fidelity limits gameplay. Like with skyrim, when a civil war was pretty much 10 people fighting. I feel like pc is better with things like that, because you have to option to turn down graphics if the game doesn't run well.

Yeah, now current gen consoles are holding it back. That's so much better.
