why is that more sane than a pc? i don't get your reasoning here. a macbook limits what programs i want to use without bootcamping it, and a console limits what games i run. that's less sane.

what else am I gonna use it for? Indie and AA are the only avenues worthwhile anymore and 90% of those can run on decent rigs from 2015.
What am I gonna do? play AAA garbage? Shit that can’t run on anything besides whatever $15,000 92GBs of VRAM GPU came out the same month of launch that’s still struggling to get 20fps with a mountain of unneeded polygons on every blade of grass

I’m not going to be modeling games on the same one I game with, it would destroy the graphics card basically. That’s why I just use my 70’ inch tv and Xbox because I don’t want to sit in an uncomfortable chair all day. Yes, I agree that PC is superior but it’s not practical for long sessions.

Ok, might as well ask since this is the "playing old games with your modern machine" thread. I just started F.E.A.R., I already downloaded the FPS fix, but now whenever I'm moving through areas with lots of elements, for example a stack of boxes, it kind of "lags", as in the boxes are constantly shifting from position as I'm moving. If someone who has already played the game knows what I'm saying, I hope you could help me with a solution. Maybe just lowering my graphics settings? Or is it related to anti-aliasing?
>>
>>722634843
I dunno but I am going to play it before Halloween, I'll let you know what I figure out then.
>>
>>722635574
I am playing it as part of my list of horror games. I just finished Dead Space Remake and I've had all 5 F.E.A.R. games gathering dust for years. From what little I've played, it feels pretty good, but that weird graphical glitch really got my attention. I guess I'll just play with the settings until I can get rid of it.

On the other hand, I already feel like this is going to be another one of those "quicksave every 10 seconds game".
