I’m usually pretty cautious on stuff like this, I’m in the minority that says the newest games don’t need to get 60fps 4k ultra on the newest GPUs, that it’s okay if you can get medium. Gives games room to future proof themselves.
But this is bad. A mid tier brand new GPU can’t play your game more than 720p 35fps? That’s laughably bad. I’ll wait to get some other reviews before I judge completely, but that’s just utterly unacceptable.
They’re years behind and they have a half baked idea. Of course they’re going to come out with one!
They also have piles of metrics saying it’s going to become the dominant in the market, that it’s way better than the competitors, and that the Xbox interface will be loved by all.
And then it’ll come out, be mediocre at best, and silently dropped in 3 years.
RDR2 is one of the best story games ever. It’s one of probably 3 or 4 I would call masterpiece, and it legit made me cry. I connected with the characters, I felt the pain of the gang falling apart, I felt fear and pity for dutch, it was just amazing. RDR2 is one of those few games where you can say "sure, it has amazing gameplay, the side games are fun, and it plays great, but I don’t play it because it’s one of the most fun games to play, I play for the story "
Truly just the brute force solution. Need a shitload of compute? GPUs can do it! No one stops to think if we really need it. It’s all about coulda, not shoulda. Yeah, ML and AI has a place, but big tech just thinks “slap an LLM everywhere”. Just such horseshit
True, I do dislike when gamers just unilaterally say “this game is bad”, because it’s such an opinion. Is it bad, or do you just not like it? Maybe other people do like it
That mission was one of the best in all of Halo. Where you really feel how dire and ruined everything is. Mixed with running around actual civilian places contrasted to the numerous forerunner built, bunkers, or nature locations or the other games and it really hits home.
(Outskirts and New Mom asa got close, but with the graphics of the time and mostly being outside it didn’t quite hit the same)
and if they let me buy it license free I would. However between the options of buying a license to play a game whenever I want vs renting it for 1 month, I’ll take the license.
