minus-square@CriticalMiss@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglish29•3 months agoGraphics in my opinion peaked at around 2015. I still boot up games from that time and I think they’re not that different from today’s titles
minus-square@glitchdx@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglish21•3 months agoThe amount of effort for such imperceptible improvements is insane. Also insane is how shit modern games run without multi thousand dollar hardware, even if you turn down settings, but then it also looks like ass in addition to running like shit.
