    …so how long till all the big game companies put some weight on our end of the stick cause they see their profits somewhat tied to gamers being able to find and afford parts?

    (i know its never, but a fella can dream)

      GDC was full of developers talking about how the lack of hardware is changing how they are approaching game design

        Hopefully it’ll force more optimization. We have incredibly powerful hardware already. If they just took the time to optimize we wouldn’t need 5090s to run 60fps. This may be a boon overall.

          It’s not even just “more optimisation”, just make some lower graphically demanding settings or don’t make it so graphically demanding in the first place.
