why modern games do this?
not a problem on console
>>735007436Switch/PS3 emulators too
they used to do it during loading screens but nowdays most games have only one initial loading screen
>>735007436compatibility and reducing game size
>>735007436needing to do that every time I booted mhw is what killed it for me
unreal engine is just poorly programmed
>>735007570I think in that case it's just capcom being retarded and fucking up their pc ports. It's the same in SF6 but the warming process doesn't even cover everything it needs to so you get random stutters each patch until you've seen every animation.
>>735007436My problem is when the game doesn't say it's doing it and I have to watch my CPU-usage spike to fucking 100% and stay there for minutes.
>>735007436It's the obsession with instant loading while in the game and seamlessness.Rather than loading in assets, shaders do most of the work.
>>735007691>have to sit there and just hope it's warming shaders and not doing some stux-level attack to fry my CPU because game developers are extremely ineptBoy I sure love modern videogames.
>>735007436pclards are used to just sit in their cuck chair and watch as things unfold on their goybox (others playing gta6 at launch on twitch and so on), developers know this so they included a mandatory cuck segment before you start """"playing"""" the game
>>735007570>all the timethen you had to manually delete the cache fileNow it's 200% time worse
>>735007436Always did.
>>735007436I've literally never seen anything like this on my PS5.
>>735007972because PS5 has no games?
>>735007436takes like under 10 seconds, not really that much of a hindrance
>>735008010No. It has almost every game that's on PC and some that are exclusive to its platform.
>>735007436they use to hide this back then when you first open the game
>>735007436Optimization, the idea is mapping out the light and shadows in a map so that you can quickly add those in the future IIRC
