I tend to agree with you, I think the downfall started in the ps3 era since that’s when online was in every console. I understand your idea that it was bad in ps4 era since devs had the time to figure out how to makes things worse due to the ability to use the internet to sell things/deliver patches.
Just in case anyone is not reading the article. It’s just saying that manufactures can only make new computers with intel 11th gen cpus or later.
I think this is kind of a good thing, that way companies can’t sell old cpus to people who don’t know any better.
Additionally, I read somewhere else that they added some extra AMD CPU’s that were not there before.
There is something that feels off about avowed. I only played it for a few hours, and it’s like eating generic brand chocolate.
I can’t quite put my finger on what it is about the game. Now that I think about it, the land seems kind of empty. In Skyrim, there is always something around. Even if it’s just a goat.
This game has little patches of enemies here and there. It also feels a bit linear so far. I’m probably not going to play anymore as everyone I play this, it just makes me want to play Skyrim again.
Maybe I can find a mod that gives me an avowed style want weapon. I really like how the want looks and works.
I think it already has. Basically every modern game works in it. The iGPU is good but some games don’t look great, but the fact that these games will at least be playable is amazing.
I’m playing showed now and it runs and looks great. Of course it’s far from what a modern dgpu can make it look like, but I’m never gaming at a desk again.
Maybe this is how the consoles die. Do they really make that much on hardware?
I’m guessing they make their money on taking a percentage from each game sold on their hardware.
I wonder if we will see the end of PlayStation at some point as people transition to things like the steamdeck.
It has all the benefits of pcgaming and can really just be interacted with like a console.
Exactly the same for me. The jumping around part was annoying, but the low ammo part was then worst. I tired to play that game a few times but couldn’t do it.
But the real question I have for you is did you play the doom mobile phone rpg?
If not, give it a go. Someone reverse engineered it and it’s fun and short.
I’m not really surprised, you do not need the latest computer to play the latest games.
I can play almost any game released on low settings with an rx 470. I admit the games will not run at high fps, but they are still playable.
So think of all the people who live in poorer countries that still have access to older hardware but can’t afford a ps5. Especially with regional pricing for games.
Distro doesn’t really matter too much. Just don’t get some obscure distro that no one has heard of before.
Plus it’s pretty common for newbies to jump around to test out different distros anyway.
Most of the time, the differences you will see are just desktop environment.
After you have used Linux for some time, then you will understand the major differences between the distros other than the way they look.
If you have any questions about Linux feel free to send me a DM. I’m always happy to help.
I completely agree, I can’t even think of any games from this gen that were must play games that didn’t also come out on pc.
I think all gaming is heading towards pc at this point.
