You are correct aboutemphasis on shooters. I can’t get into sci-fi and RPG for me feel like a way to fill time without actual new gameplay happening.
I really don’t like walking around tying to find random items, in my opinion it’s too much of nothing
I have the Metro games, I’ve played each for several hours but never finished any of them.
I’m interested in Far Cry 6 but I’ve also seen strong criticisms of the gameplay so I don’t know if it’s worth buying.
I tried one of the Half Life games for about an hour, and the sci-fi aspect killed my interest with different creatures. I didn’t care about what happened in the story.
I played a good amount of Doom reboot but I never finished it. It’s a decent game. I can’t get into being on Mars fighting random creatures, but that’s only my thing, I don’t have any criticisms. I heard the second one is excellent but I have not bothered with it.
There’s something about crude graphics that appeals to you, alright, I get that.
The fancy graphics today is very uneccassary for quality gameplay, but I also can’t play 90’s games anymore due to the pixelation.
I wish id Software would do a full 1 for 1 remake of the original Doom and sell for $20. No changes, nothing added or removed, keep all of the same measurements and dimensions of every area, every room, identical colours, same game functionalities, but in a new game engine with 4K textures.
I wonder if that would wreck it or be an instant success.
It could also be that with nVidia making billions from AI computing, it doesn’t hurt them if graphics cards don’t sell because they own the market anyways, it doesn’t matter. If Radeon sales increase but they still make billions from the enterprise, it still doesn’t matter. And Intel doesn’t exist in that space.
Given that nVidia is a trillion dollar company even with Ada Lovelace not selling, the company is not being affected. Why sell an $800 card when they can sell a $5000 card?
Gamers need to accept that if gaming GPU’s don’t sell yet the company has billions of dollars coming in, they have no reason to listen or care about gamers. I strongly condemn nVidia’s corporatist attitude, but gamers have to either pay nVidia prices or buy from a different company while nVidia continues to get richer without gamers.
You can live at ease with not having any debt weighing on you.
I was thinking maybe you could do a 4 core i3 13100, B660 board, 16GB DDR4, and RX 7600.
That would beat a 8700K and Radeon 580.
