This is my last reply because I just can’t with you anymore.

Those are some HELLA cherry picked examples. Both Dragon’s Dogma examples have the games running at MAX SETTINGS!

Even the Cyberpunk example, that was RAY TRACING on Medium.

I can’t read german, so no idea what is actually being said in the Indiana Jones article, but the closest equivalent I could find is this video which, frankly, tells me you’re completely full of shit.

It’s cute that you think that was a good counter argument

forcing gamers to have a sub par experience

The game isn’t even out yet and you’re commenting on performance! As someone else pointed out, the modern Doom games have a reputation for being extremely well optimised, so let’s wait and see how it actually performs on a 20 series card

As for needing a card > $1000 that’s just ridiculous. You can get a 4060 NEW for under 500, and again, the minimum here is a 2060.

Re: supporting old hardware, again. The minimum is 7 year old hardware. I was also around in the 386 era and to say that devs of that time supported hardware for longer, is at best, wildly exaggerated.

I can’t comment too deeply on consoles. I have no real experience with them, but from a very shallow level, the series S was released in 2020, and Google suggests that it supports ray tracing.

So my point stands. Stop expecting your 10 year old hardware to run new games indefinitely

So couple things:

The first RTX cards were the 20 series, which came out in 2018

There was a time when volumetric lighting was also optional

There was a time when GRAPHICS CARDS were optional.

The first game to require RTX was the Indiana Jones game, as did the Avatar game.

Shit moves on. Did you expect your 1060 card from 2016 to last indefinitely? How long did you expect developers to support 2 different lighting systems?

There is so much to be angry about these days, but not this. This was inevitable. If you MUST be angry about it, at least be angry at the right devs

Anbernic rg34xx?

I have an rg35xx h (just a generic square thing) and I’m pretty happy with it. I play mostly GBA and some PSP games on it

I remember the Wallace & Gromit doco about this…

I think they start on 0 here though. Reddit automatically upvotes your own posts, but not here

worst Bethesda DLC’s released of all time

Are we including Horse Armor here?

Yes, because it’s so difficult to get a gun in America any other way /s

I’ve been using a DS5 for PC gaming over an Xbox controller for a few months now, and it’s the fucking best! I’m genuinely not going back. The touch pad acts like a track pad for when you absolutely need mouse control (ui navigation mostly), and you can use gyro to fine aim ala the switch. It’s sick! I’m considering picking an edge up exclusively for PC gaming, I’m that sold. I just want someone to confirm the back pedals work. I do wish they had hall effect sticks though.
