I think he means that a game should run well in native resolution without upscaling lower resolutions, using the worse kinds of AA and frame generation.
On PS3 when you hovered over games they would play music, for example DMC4 played The Time Has Come.
It was kind of a letdown when it turned out there were only three heist missions.
If you want a better experience than a console, you need to shell out for a better machine. Judging by Steam Charts, most PC gamers want to run old, weak GPUs that are outclassed by the consoles, and that's why they're getting an inferior experience.
That I can agree with. Definitely.
Oh, I remember those. Xbox 360 just had a banner when you had a disc in the game, unless it was an Original Xbox game. I liked how there was a pre-start up preview for PS3 games. Does PS4/PS5 do that anymore?
I've been playing PC games for 30 years and only in the last 5 have developers been trying to rely on gimmicks to justify bad optimization. I'm not trying to run those games on a GTX 970, my nigga.
You missed the part where I said I was trying to run those games on medium settings. I'm not talking about turning on ray tracing, 8x AA etc. Bad optimization is nothing new. The Last Of Us for PC was also really bad in that regard. What I found very interesting was that it didn't matter if I ran it on lowest or highest settings because the performance was almost the same. Last time I checked (over a year ago), consoles were struggling to run most of the more demanding games.
Space Marine 2 runs at 70-80 fps at 1080p medium on a 6700 XT:
isn't planet coaster doing the paradox approach of developing content by releasing shit like mini dlc's?
funny you mention that because i could run doom eternal with a machine that was 3 years older than it with below-minimum specs and have stable 60 fps when they released the denuvoless exe file, even had to make a bethesda account to play it, lol.
this is common knowledge, the AI straight up cheats to eat your quarters in arcade versions of games, do you even know what a arcade machine is? so much so you can look for videos about arcade version of fighting games being crazy hard when compared to their dreamcast/sega saturn version.
never forgetti breath of the wild not being able to run perfectly on the console it was made for, people that wanted a smooth experience had to use yuzu and a computer with better specs/steam deck.
That's weird. I definitely couldn't run it in native resolution without fps dipping to ~30 when I was getting swarmed by enemies. My drivers were up to date and everything,
The worst performance on a console I've seen was in Bloodborne. It must've been about 23 on average. Absolutely unacceptable, especially for the kind of game where players count iframes to maximize efficiency. Another one was Deadly Premonition 2 for the Switch. Although I don't know if that counts because that's basically a joke console.
I believe people like them are to blame for bloated video games and unoptimized game engines. Textures aren't compressed because those sort of people want the minute detail rendered at the highest quality with what hardware they can afford to buy. Eventually, they'll reach a plateau where hardware would be too expensive to render games in such a high quality. Crysis is a great example of that.
It is like paradox in the sense that there are a billion DLCs, but I wouldn't say it is the paradox approach because the base game really is feature complete and the DLC is entirely optional extras.
