Thing is, PC gaming and console gaming has always been two different audiences. Especially in the 90s.
PC gaming was about Doom, Microsoft Flight Simulator, SimCity, and Civilization.
Console gaming was about Mario, Castlevania, Megaman, and Parappa the Rappa.
PC gaming and console gaming rarely intersected, and when it did it was awkward. Until Xbox that is.
Of course, there was arcade gaming too but that’s another story.
