PC gaming requires significant financial investment, with high-end components like the Nvidia RTX 5090 GPU costing nearly three times that of a PS5 or Xbox Series X|S. Many PC games suffer from bugs and performance issues, as developers often neglect optimization for the platform. Hideo Kojima is noted for producing well-optimized PC ports, exemplified by Metal Gear Solid V, which runs smoothly on modest hardware despite being nearly a decade old. In contrast, newer titles like Monster Hunter Wilds have struggled with performance. The reliance on AI upscaling technologies, such as Nvidia’s DLSS and AMD’s FSR, has not compensated for poor game design, leading to player frustration. Developers often rush game releases to meet profit targets, prioritizing financial gain over quality, which has resulted in a demand for better standards in game development. Gamers expect high-quality experiences that justify their investment, and there is a call for patience in the release of polished titles.

Gamers have been warned that "S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Heart of Chornobyl" may soon be classified as prohibited content. Developers have removed the Russian voiceover, banned sales in Russia and Belarus, and are fundraising for the Ukrainian Armed Forces, leading to the blocking of the game's websites by Roskomnadzor for spreading extremist information. A major piracy platform has advised users not to expect a repack of the game due to concerns it may be classified as extremist, which could result in legal consequences for distributing it. The government can track users who purchase or distribute prohibited content, making it easier to identify sources and downloaders. The situation poses legal risks for sellers, piracy services, streamers, reviewers, and guide authors. Potential bans on purchases could be interpreted as financing terrorism due to the game's association with an organization labeled as extremist in Russia. If illegal content is found in the game, the implications would be more severe.
