Thread 725157405

Any non-UE5slopping dev that tries to actually push graphics further generates unlimited levels of seethe, NOw I don't even think GTA 6 will be god but ti's just bizarre, back in the golden age of gaming tech leaps (that weren't just meme's like Ray Tracing) were celebrated for pushing the envelop.

Now Zoomers have a fit if something isn't a Unreal Engine asset flip "Analog horror" indie game about walking around large empty spaces

He's completely right though

>turning this into generationfagging and completely misunderstanding of positions
People like you are the reason we’re stuck with oscarbait games. Go fuck yourself. Shame on you. All fields bitch.

Realism usually means the game is boring and has a basic bitch internet defense force.

Because we grew through the golden age (Gen 5, 6 and 7) so we started in a bubble of near-perfection and then watched that bubble pop while everything goes to shit. Try and see it from our perspective, we didn't experience any of the lows of gaming, we started at the very peak of gaming, the absolute highest height of the medium has reached to this day, so the drop down into the shit hit us very hard. We watched freaks and retards take over the hobby we loved and because they're all soulless cretins, they do nothing but focus on graphics because it's the most surface level part of gaming to work on, it's the easiest part that impresses casuals the most, and casuals rake in the money. We watched gaming lose its soul.

Yes, piggy, keep your head in the trough, keep consuming your Saints Row Reboots and Fortnite add-ons.

>why are zoomers

You're a retard mongoloid. I'm 36 years old and I also hate triple A's obsession with making games that run like total shit just so they can look 10% better than DMC4 did 15 years ago

>>725157405 (OP)
Graphical prowess have hit the point of diminishing returns and any effort to squeeze blood from that stone just makes things worse for everyone.

I think people just got sick and tired of waiting for this game to come out. And waiting for all games to come out for that matter. When I was a kid I got to play GTA 3, Vice City, San Andreas and GTA IV all within a few short years of each other. Now it takes well over a decade for a new game in the title to release. Why? So that we can watch a horses balls get smaller if there's snow in the game? It's just ridiculous, triple A games are a fucking joke.

>quadrouple the system requirements so you can have hairs behave slightly differently which goes entirely unnoticed while actually playing the game

games do not need to look better than they did 10 years ago. We did it, we reached the peak requirements. There is no need to go beyond that. Mid range hardware of 5 years ago should be enough to play all new games from here on out until something actually game changing occurs like full dive vr or something.

I do not want to upgrade so light and shadows can look slightly different. Not better, just different. I do not care that some cool new tech is whats making them look different, i was fully immersed with the old one and these days with hardware enhancements i should be running it at 200fps at 4k. not 100 at 1080p but the puddle splash ripples are generated in real time

Boomer here and I share the opinion

What I've always wanted: Better enemy/NPC AI
What I get instead and what critics pretends to be amazed by: horse balls

>Why are Zoomers so anti-Technology in games?
Because they have witnessed basically no visual improvements in games over the last decade while the hardware requirements keep increasing massively.

>>725157405 (OP)
They're not wrong.
The pursuit of hyper-realism has made companies spend hundreds of millions of dollars on games and still be in the red after millions of sales.
If your game doesn't break even at 100k sales maximum, you fucked up.
