1. Buy a PC

2. Play games

3. toss console out window

 

Also, keyboards really don't matter for gaming. I have gamed for years on a $10 keyboard with 2 key rollover, and right now I am gaming on an IBM model M, which only has 2 key rollover. The mechanical switches really make a difference when you are typing, but it makes no difference whatsoever when you're gaming.

 

Good mice do matter, however.

personally I think you have completely misrepresented the whole pc gaming community, how to become a pc gamer is simple you buy your pc and play game on it ,it really does not matter to start out with as long as it runs the games you want to play.The most important part about being a pc gamer is having fun online with your friends and meeting new people along the way. Being a pc gamer does not require you to build your own pc from scratch or spending large amounts of money on your set and peripherals. building your own computer is a separate hobby that is commonly undertaken by pc gamers,enthusiasts an professionals.

 

 

 

in a final note it would be interesting to see how the rest of the  Linus TECH tips/ Linus Media group forum members feel the becoming a pc gamer journey was for them

Kids, remember that if your gaming session isn't filled with swag, cowbells, and laughing like Bryan Fury, you aren't intense enough.

 

On a serious note, being a PC gamer is as easy as booting up a game store (Steam, Amazon, Origin, uPlay, etc.), buying a game, and going. It doesn't matter what you have, but what you do with it and how much fun you have.

Really? When I upgraded from a stock HP keyboard to a black widow 2013 edition I noticed a huge difference o.O

I fail to understand the point of third entirely. Maybe just have a PC, play games and have fun? I feel like my comment makes little sense because I am so lost on what the point of this video is and why you made it. I hope I am just missing the point due to my lack of sleep or something.

 

Maybe someone can enlighten me?

Damnit, another video that won't load,

 

Becoming a PC Gamer is an easy recipe to follow, first you take ONE computer, medium to high powered depending on your taste, ONE (or more) game that takes your fancy, run it and there you go, quick and simple you're PC gaming, welcome to the club :P
