The over-the-shoulder off-angle cab footage really makes it.

Hover over the thread title.  If it says 'Click and hold to edit title' then you can edit it.  If you need help changing a thread title let me know.

The PC is a powerful tool.  The added power comes at the cost of added complexity, but honestly it's no big deal.
 
In regards to fighting games there is occasional weirdness with controllers, but for the most part it's a non-issue.  Steam can translate almost any controller to xinput, which is the standard for PC games.  Your PS3/PS4/Switch controllers should work just fine once you set the Steam controller mapping up.  Alternatively, if you own a stick with a xbox (xinput) mode you will pretty much have 0 issues.
 
A respectable PC will cost 1.5-2x the price of a console, but you'll be able to use it for years and upgrade it over time.  With consoles you buy a new machine whenever Sony/MS/Nintendo tell you to.  With a PC you can choose when/what you upgrade based on your needs.  The added cost is balanced by having way more control over your experience and how much money you want to put in/how long you want to use your machine.
 
Probably the biggest perk of a PC is the raw performance and game library.  With a PC you get access to emulation, as well as the ability to play lots of legacy titles on Steam/Epic/GOG/etc.  The idea of a 'remaster' is really a console thing, since a lot of them don't look any better than the PC versions of the same game released many years ago.  There's no need to wait for a remaster to be sold to you when you can play the original with newer hardware any time you want.  There are also many games that only have life on PC because they are either never made for console or were originally made for consoles that nobody uses anymore.
 
I wouldn't recommend a PC to everyone and the new consoles are certainly very powerful, but there are definitely advantages to owning one.  If you want to just play games and not worry about anything then console is still the way to go -- but if you want more versatility, power, and the ability to do other stuff (like streaming/content creation) then a PC is a no-brainer.

If you have everything safely backed up then just turn the computer off.  If the drive gets fucked it doesn't matter.  It sounded like your drive was dying anyway.  Order a SSD and get that PC working properly ASAP.
