Hi, this is a quick post I make to talk about something I keep seeing online everywhere.
A lot of people say that the price increases will force developers to optimize and to work with what hardware they have to make good games and stop using AI gen and DLSS tech as an excuse for poor optimization.
The big problem is that nobody thinks about those people that don’t have the hardware right now.
Those people that were waiting for a discount to buy a PS5 or a PC and now they’re left stranded.
Current-gen consoles are getting really hard to find and a lot of people have been left out, stuck on old-gen and old-games.
playing old-games is not a bad thing but you may have missed the fact that even old consoles are getting reaaally pricey thanks to scalpers and speculators of the market.
This is madness people. Fight AI, don’t embrace it!
8 bit kid here, I played with my uncle’s Atari VCS, the original one with six silver switches on the front, and my first computer was a C64.
It is definitely true that the only real difference between games released in the last ten years and games released in the 90s is prettier graphics. We still play platformers.
We don’t need all this to have fun. Trust me.
Also it will implode and all of this will be available at fire sale prices.
