Half Life 3 wont be pushing any boundaries if it can run on this little thing
>Half Life 3 wont beAgree.
>>726016630is this "Half Life 3" in the room with you now?
>>726016630its going to be PS5 Pro tier, it should cope easily
you mean no raytracing? who gives a shit, i'd rather have insane performance than shadows and reflections you only notice in side by side comparisonsvalve doesn't need that crutchit'll look great just like alyxpersonally i hope valve completely open sources the engine so the industry can be freed from unreal
>>726016630Is no one going to mention that it is a black FUCKING CUBE
>>726016630Half-Life is an irrelevant boomer franchise that people only pretend to like for street cred, kind of like Metal Gear Solid and Final Fantasy.
>>726016630>with fsr
>>726016850Does it have a place to stick a rock in the corner?
>>726016850you have been spamming this shit foreverno one caresi know you're a /pol/fag because I am too so here's the comparisonyou're just as annoying as the retards who do numerology and make words into numbers
>>726016791>its going to be PS5 Pro tierno it isn't lmao
>>726016850>saturn worshipSega fans are crazy.
>consoomers have been conditioned so bad that they think if a game is not an unoptimised piece of shit which runs at 60 FPS on a 4090TI with framegen on then it's not "pushing boundaries"grim
>>726016945>there are people out there who willingly use 4k and make their games run worse when they could just back away from the screen to a reasonable distance1080p in the living room on a big screen with its viewing distances is perfectly fine and it'll have good upscaling too
>>726016821why would they remove raytracing from the gpu?
>>726016630hl2 wasn't very demanding either. it was playable on my geforce 4 mx 4000
>>726017168computers are for desks, cupcake
>>726017047rectangles are not cubes,
>>726017236playing games on a conventional desk fucking sucks even if you have a good desk with proper mouse supports and armrests
>>726016850>>726016979secondingi see it too but im not an annoying retard like that guy
>>726016630Does it need to?
>>726017189the game won't ship with raytracing because valve don't take shortcuts like that, they'd rather have 1000x folded japanese raster than raytrace
>>726017383If HL3 isn't the next coming of Christ it's dead on arrival.
What about social boundaries.
>>726017479It's Mrs Breen to you Freeman
>>726016630When I played Black Mesa, I thought: if HL3 came out with those graphics, that's plenty.
>>726016850Wrong board. This one is for retards not the insane.
>>726017527It's Freewoman to you.
>>726017383>Does it need to?yes
>>726016630>Half Life 3>>>/x/
>>726016791That shitbox can't even run MH Wilds.
>>726017645Freema'am.
>>726016791Its weaker than a base PS5 lmao, and will be more expensive.
>>726016630Because your only defintion of pushing boundaries and at this point the only definition of every game studio and exec retards is graphical fidelity. How much dogshit graphic tech can we stuff in a game so it looks as close to real life as possible and only runs on 5090s at 30 fps. There has to be more Valve is trying that we havent considered
>>726017168even 720p is bearable on a TV. I hate console manufacturers for prioritizing resolution over framerates
>>726018250>Its weaker than a base PS5 lmaoblatant snoy cope
>>726018250Weaker or stronger than this or that console is irrelevant because you're playing a pc game on a pc and pc games have a lot more granullar setting adjustment than "performance mode 60fps" and "cinematic mode 30fps"
>>726019424That would be true for the standard games. But they can push the medium in other ways like pocedural story telling being a big one with ai
i don't think they care.they made deadlock and that game is pretty much unplayable on the deck because it's impossible to compete with joystick aiming.
>>726016630It could push the boundaries of performance.
>>726016630HL1, 2 and Alyx didn't push hardware boundaries either. Everything they did was available for at least 2-3 years already, just not utilized by anyone as they couldn't figure these things out.
>>726016630what are graphics options?yes, they existno, not the "barely change anything and gain 1fps max with a multitude of toggles" kind of optionsreal options.real optimization.
>>726020158>it's impossible to compete with joystick aimingnigga is still stickfagging like a bitch despite being provided with gyro and touchpads lmao
>>726016630Half Life 3 will be another VR game otherwise their expensive VR headset is dead in the water
>>726020430gyro doesn't work in deadlock as far as i'm aware.
>>726016630only game design and optimization. lost arts.
Pushing boundaries would be delivering a game that does look cutting edge while running smoothly on that thing.
>>726020350>Alyx didn't push hardware boundaries
Who is going to buy this shit?It has all the nehgative sides of consoles without any positive sites fro ma PC>Non-customizable>Specs arent good because mini-pcs need to compromise power for size advantage>Doesnt have exclusives like consoles>Doesnt have Offline-Multiplayer games like Switch>Doesnt have physical games you can buy from a store that you own>Non-optimized compared to consoles because games are always better unning on consoles compared to a computer with the same specsThe only people i see praising this shit are rapid Valve-drones
>>726021180It didn't. It showed everyone else that they've been sitting on a goldmine of gameplay opportunities and did nothing with it for years. One of its selling points is that it's so well optimized that you didn't need cutting edge hardware to run it when it released, PC or headset.
>>726021376>Non-customizableno one buying entry level shit is customising anything>Specs arent good because mini-pcs need to compromise power for size advantagethis thing has as good a cooling as you can get for that hardware>Doesnt have exclusives like consolesyou get the most games by an incompherensible margin and also their best versions>Doesnt have Offline-Multiplayer games like Switch>emulate a switch game or any local multiplayer with two controllers>get offline multiplayer>Doesnt have physical games you can buy from a store that you ownsteam has more game permanency than any console and you can back up and make your own physical games with the files they give you>Non-optimized compared to consoles because games are always better unning on consoles compared to a computer with the same specsconsole optimisation doesn't exist, they're all running x86 hardware, consoles upscale from 720 and 1080p on lower settings just like this thing will
>>726021867oh yeah and alsohttps://store.steampowered.com/category/multiplayer_local_party
>>726016630Half-life 2 was released on the fucking xbox
>>726017585same here, not even kidding I'd be cool with that. Personally I'm pretty sure that with regards to "pushing boundaries", HL3's gonna try to do that with the wacky physics stuff they've been working on and the storyline, and not through the graphics.
