So the end game for all of this is that games will start becoming more optimized for lower-end hardware like the Switch 2 and the Steam Deck, right? Because I don't care about Jeff Bezos' wet dreams, we don't have the proper infrastructure for streaming vidya without unplayable input lag, and this modern practice of needing a 7800X3D and an RTX 5080 to run games at 1080p/60fps with DLSS/FSR enabled isn't feasible anymore because we're all getting priced out of it. Are all these AI companies just going to keep giving those studios boatloads of cash to stop them from going under?
>>730932323no, the end game is cloud. better get used to playing with half a second input lag right now.
>>730932398How about we just capture all the billionaires and throw them into volcanoes?
Threadly reminder that if you're a right winger, you effectively voted to kill your own hobby
>>730932453Good luck with that.
>>730932539subsidizing shit isn't right wing policy
>>730932398Half a second? Which paradise universe do you come from where cloud gaming only adds half a second input lag?
>>730932323>10 year warranty >lifetime warranty >literally outlives every other pc part>literally can be reused in a new build or any build>have multiple sticks of DDR3,4,5 in drawers or just lying around>this is somehow a problem
They're making DDR3 boards again and will start making DDR4 soon. Neither of those interfere with DDR5 RAM and DDR4 is enough to run 100% of all games made right now, seriously, name a game, a DDR4 rig can run it for effectively free. This is only a problem in your mind.

>>730932323they will keep releasing slop and fail because no one can run it, they will keep pushing streaming and fail because you can't have competitive games on thosethey will fire people to cut their losses, studios will close and you will eat shit when your card/ssd fails

>>730932398this. there will just be more movie games, turn based games, and AI assist gimmicks to compensate. you won't have a choice anyway.

>>730932323>games will start becoming more optimized for lower-end hardwareLoL, LMAO even. They'll just push for cloud gaming, only chuds would want to own a PC
>>730932694This sadly
I'm just gonna keep playing morrowind.I don't get why this is a big deal.

>>730932680You absolutely got ripped off.
>>730932323They'll focus on the ps5 and Xbox more likely

>>730932323what I hate about the Ram situation is that making it is nowhere near as complex, time consuming or costly as making a Gpu or Cpu. If they wanted to make more Ram they could but they simply do not want to do it because they are loving all the money they are making. Humans are so greedy and for what?
>>730933036Golly, that sure would've been bad when partitioning and loading it full of isos.

>>730932795That's what the anon is saying. You voted for this.
We keep hearing this cope. Really tho if your rig can play RDR 2 at 60fps then it should handle anything and games should be optimised to work well. Will they? probably not.
>>730932323>optimizedoptimizing games is anti-capitalist. you must buy better hardware. the line must go up.

>>730932539The AI shit is bipartisan rot and is an issue of economic/class divide more than it is something that falls on a specific side of the isle.There are four types of people who support how AI is being handled currently:>Those who don't understand itMostly the "terminally offline", uneducated, or older crowd who are endeared by the gimmick and behold it as magic.>Those who don't careThese people have no inner voice and everything is already "slop" to them. So more = better.>Those who stand to benefitHustle-culture fraudster types trying to cut in on creative markets. Owner classes trying to make line go up by hiring less.>Those who are lashing outThe ones whose brains are so atrophied by post-2016 reactionary political discourse that they cheer it on instinctively because they see the "other side" doesn't like it.Most of the posts you'll see on the internet (including here) are the second and fourth types. In the real world adoption is being spurred by the first and third.They have no regard for the second order effects of it such as the rapid erosion of the social contract (or in the case of the fourth, gleefully welcome it).
Is it better to put your face closer to a 1080p monitor or get one of those screens-on-glasses things?
Which stocks?
>>730932323Cloud play is already functional on Xbox.Part of what skyrocketed Palworld in 2024 was literally everyone could try it out for free on any potato through Windows' Xbox store having a two weeks free trial on gamepass and all gamepass games are cloud play compatible. The half a second input lag is complete bullshit, by the way. Through some fucking sorcery there's no input lag.
>>730934898First of all, you sound like the blind retards who can't tell 30fps from 120.Secondly, cloud gaming latency is extremely dependent on where you live.
>>730932539Can someone explain to me why Nvidia and the AI companies are the the RICHEST companies in the world right now... need money from the government?
this is good because no more forced next gen bullshit that artificially forces new windows os and shit like with garbage ass ray tracing being forced ao hard also good because its budget friendly and my pc will last for 10 years now rather than 5 or 6
>>730932539that's nothing new. rightoid ideology is "cut off my nose to spite my face" at it's core.
>>730932539>all the butthurt repliesYou are 100% right and they know it
No, the endgoal is to make gaming unaffordable. First it was to make games all lame and gay with DEIslop. Gamers responded by just turning to indies and retro instead. The counterplay is to make computer parts too expensive so that once your rig dies you can't play anymore.All so you get off the couch and fight foreign wars and ultimately die for Israel.
>>730932680Why do you need an SSD for a PS2?
>>730935006>you sound like the blind retards who can't tell 30fps from 120OK 0.1% of the entire market. You'll find a way to live if you can regularly pull those rigs.>Secondly, cloud gaming latency is extremely dependent on where you live.Thirdies are not running your autistic setups.
>>730935006First of all, you are extras the blind retard that can't tell it's the same shit above 30 because it's about the screen refresh rate. No I don't give a flying fuck about your placebo from buyer's regret.Secondly, you are definitely not in some third world cave if you are buying that overpriced shit.
>>730932810We subsidize oil and coal barons to own the libs. We pay multinationals big bucks to bring in h1-b indians to own the libs. We let big banks rape your communities to own the libs. Don't like it? Then leave.
