PC/Steam

Anyone playing on the PC and take the plunge to move to Steam?  I've migrated my stuff, but not sure I'll be playing it that much.

I'm still setting up my system - I need to get a controller connection!

I'm moving from PS4 over to the PC, so I'll problably play both for a bit, but moving more towards PC over the next year.

Just started playing on Steam a bit.  Never will be a keyboard gamer, but an elite controller and a USB wireless adapter work pretty well.  Graphics and response a bit better than console.  I am using GEFORCE overlay to record gameplay but have to turn off HDR for that to work.  Video quality still good since I can capture in 4K.  Tried OBS but can't get it to work.

For me, it's about being able to play all the games I want to play on one system. I can't play MCC, or UT99, or Mass Effect, on the PS4. But on a PC I can play all that and more.

Video is a bit better with higher frame rate, even without HDR for Destiny.  I can also easily record game play in 4K.  Using a wireless adapter, controller response is as good as console.  This might all be moot when the new console comes out, but for now playing on desktop is just a bit better.

Edit:  I might also note that I was getting bored which was enough of a push to get me to try PC gaming.  I currently have Halo MCC with CE, H2 anniv, Reach, and H3 as well as Destiny 2 available thru Steam.  I signed up for the Ultimate Game Pass which will give me access to both console and PC games thru the XBOX App (MCC and Forza 4 downloaded already).  An upgraded Destiny 2 will be available in September and the new DLC -- New Light (outrageous price) -- will be available on console and PC for free.  Downloading a couple of strategy games now.
