why is microsoft STILL getting away with this ?
It's stronger than a switch 2, but some how holding games back? I think not.
>>730688356>devs>"wtf we cant let the hardware handle all our bloated pajeet tier mess of a code"xbox is saving this shitty gen.
>>730688503>xbox is saving this shitty genIt's not, it's not even selling. Switch, Switch 2, Steam Deck, and PC are saving gaming. The PS4 to PS5 and Xbox One to Xbox Series was barely even a jump. Now, the Steam Machine and Steam Deck 2 will save gaming further.
>>730688356what, they need a quantum super computer with 666gb of ram to run their dogshit 500gb unoptimized game?
>>730688356>STILLnigga slopya slopella is crashing down the entire company. I doubt any dev is really working closely with ms anymore.
>>730688356Everyone fucking hates this thingt. microslop employee
"next gen" is deadthere is only one gen now, forever.
>>730688461>It's stronger than a switch 2It's not.
Lazy devs fuck off. If xbox is irrelevant, how can this be possible?
>>730688356Reminder Steam Machine is slightly comparable to a Series S. A whole new generation of PC games will be gimped now because of it.
Xbox is shitting the bed so bad these days they won't get away with anything like this next gen.
>>730690704Thats weird logic since they shit the bed last gen. They shouldn't be "gettin away" with it at nearly the end of this gen. These stories are dev cope because its so easy to shit on or blame Xbox/Microsoft. Nobody in the industry likes them.
>>730688356Why is the series S taking the fall for unreal engine 5?Just stop using that slop and build around an optimized engine instead.
The series x was like $500, youre telling me people didnt have $500 to buy a better console? People who buy the s deserve to be brutally bullied and called poor. >1080p>2026Oh buddy
>>730688356If it was actually holding anything back to a serious degree, they would just stop porting to Xbox at this point.
>>730688356Use metrics I can understand. Is the Series S and Switch 2 both around the power levels of a PS4?
>>730690704>next genThey plan to not even go crazy with announcements for next gen like they did in the past. Insiders are saying Microsoft will announce the next gen Xbox like they announced the ROG Xbox Ally, with as little fanfare as possible. That's how over it is for Xbox.
>>730688356>DevsIt's their fault, not Xbox. You don't need more than 30gb for your game nor specs beyond PS4/Switch 2. Xbox has a miriad of flaws, their hardware specs is not one.
>>730688356>Article from 4 years agoKill yourself OP and everyone that replies after me
>>730688356it's like a entry tier pc but with hand tailored graphical settings and optimizationsthe generation is almost over and it ran everything that was asked of itinb4 "30fps" modern games are running at 40fps on the other consoles
>>730688356>the PS4 is holding back PS6 gamesThis is what they sound like.If you don't like it, then don't develop for the last gen platform. Microsoft doesn't even have a current gen console out, let alone next gen in the works.
>>730688356>same devs claim the switch 2 is way easier to port to because of more streamlined development hardware and actual DLSS and really ray tracing Xbox has been cucked since the end of the 369 lifespan but its unironically over. A lot of devs are abandoning ports in favor of using thay effort to port to nintendo instead. If nintendo didnt get third party support no one would care because they actually have exclusives. Sony would be fine too if the third parties slowed down, because despite recent years they have a pretty great track record with exclusives as well. Xbox has not had an exclusive in I dont know how long. Rare replay? And that was just a compilation of old emulated games. Everything else is on PC, Nintendo, and even Playstation. Its genuinely over for Xbox, and I think its deserved for what theyve done to all their studios, but especially Rare and Mojang.
>>730688503
>>730692316>the generation is almost overIt's going to last 2 more years, for these software famelic systems that's a lot and on par with half of a regular generation
>>730688356why port games to xbox?
>>730692316Is he trying to smell flanders farts?
Maybe devs should stop endlessly chasing graphical fidelity and start making a good fucking game instead.
Devs could just stop making games for it. Just don't even bother porting them. They did it to the Wii U and the Vita
>>730693260They'd be losing one of the 3 places they can release their shit on it. They chose to ignore Nintendo but they don't seem wanting or able to ditch more platforms. Funnily enough they will have to drop Xbox because they raised their devkit prices as well lmao
>>730688461microsoft demands feature parity with the series x, so games need to get castrated to run on it. it's why sparking zero only had local multiplayer on one stage, the series s couldn't handle it on other stages
what is wrong with it
>>730695947last gen laptop hardware that barely anyone owns but devs are compelled to downgrade games to run on it
>>730688461If you want to make a game for the PS5, Sony doesn't force you to also have it run on the Switch 2.
>>730693241RAM is the main issue, retard.
>>730693260A decent amount of studios are skipping the Xbox.>>730695947If you want to release a game for the Xbox it has to run on both versions of the console with the same features. So if something doesn't run on the weaker version, it gets cut from the strong one as well.
>>730688461Nobody thinks about Switch. Nintendo isn't in the competition.They should be more concerned with this little thing.
>>730698174>Nobody thinks about Switchcope
>>730688356I got a series s and a series x later on and I gotta say the upgrade wasn't worth 300 bucks, I expecte smooth 60fps but all the sloppa could barely hit 50fps. Only Witcher 3 looked nicer but I wasn't going to replay that
>>730699008yes t
>>730698174Sony thinks about the Switch, Microsoft thinks about Steam hardware. Sony and Microsoft are no longer competing with each other. Microsoft has moved back into PC gaming, Sony has shifted their focus to dealing with the only other console company.
>>730697026GTAV was made on 512MB, no excuses
>>730697026Ram, VRAM and storage. So, they should prioritize making games as lightweight and efficient as possible. Have 4k texture packs and lossless audio be optional downloads.
>>730699401
>>730695283it has local in all stages though?
>>730693129 Flanders took one bite of the decaying springfield sandwich and the Heavy couldn’t hold it in. Man’s absorbing the fumes like he's trying to enter the fart dimension.
>>730689901>Steam Deckbuddy really tried to slip that one in, shit sold even less than xbox
>>730703845Xbox is about to start selling even less. Microsoft has shifted away from console gaming, next gen won't sell close to Valve's Steam hardware due to insane high prices way above that of Valve's because the next Xbox is using Windows instead of the Xbox OS.

>>730699474>VRAM
>>730704195>Xbox is about to start selling even less.is that even possible
>>730705275For Microsoft, yes
>>730690395It absolutely is. Switch 2 cant even run Cyberpunk at 60fps.
>>730705653Not
>>730688356literally a translation for>we target 30 fpsthink about it. no dev targeting 60 fps will ever have an issue with series S. just make your game for the main platforms and then run the S version at 30 fps if you're feeling lazy. the only reason this wouldn't work is that you are already running at 640p30 upscaled to "4k" with TSSAA / PISSER on the main consoles. shit devs need to rope.
