To all gamers, game designers, streamers…. you are trying too hard.
I recently upgraded to a new big ultra widescreen monitor. I was a little worried about switch from 4k to a slightly less dense resolution. My gaming rig is a NUC with mobile GPU.. so pushing that big a monitor, I’ve had to turn down the graphics on all the shooter games at least. And of course, I can’t tell a fucking difference. Games are smooth as shit.. and while I’m smoking pukes and rolling through the map I can’t tell one bit that the graphics are “low resolution”.
If you think I’m wrong.. 1) I don’t care and 2) You are fooling yourself.
You don’t need a $800 GPU to make these games as fun as always. None of you are playing a shooter game and looking at the grass textures thinking it’s not “realistic” enough. Hell, your character is a fucking ninja turtle wearing superman’s cape holding a lightsaber .. doing a Rick Roll dance.
Framerates and smooth animations are what make these games enjoyable.
Now move to a RTS or adventure game, etc.. crank up the visuals and turn down the performance, you don’t need it.
Stop trying so hard.
End of line.
