Materialist cringe is truly ignorant cringe at it's best

Sacrificing creativity and passion for monetization. 

That's why I quit the AAA game industry within 1 year.

It's a soulcrushing meatgrinder. Indie games are the way.

AAA game development = Orange

Indie game development = Green

We need to coin a new term: Meta-cringe -- when you cringe at the ignorance displayed by others cringing at stuff because they think it is ignorant, AND at the same time you are fully conscious that your own cringe at their cringe is also ignorance on a higher level.

Ben Shapiro's onlyfans account leak though

What is he doing on onlyfans, though? isn't it a platform for camwhores and porn actresses to monetize their following?

I imagine a meta-Picard facepalm of both facepalm receiver and facepalm giver.

Being obsessed with video game graphics is stage orange

@Raphael But can it run Crysis in 4k?

[Raphael]

@Leo Gura Haha

That's a crazy synchronicity.

I recently bought a computer and installed the original Crysis on it to test the performances. I was not able to run it at max in Full HD above 30 - 35 FPS. I'll maybe try the remaster, but stay careful to avoid an explosion. It's so sad

Crysis is a really old game now. It could just be poorly optimized (for today's standards) along with being very graphics-intensive. You could have games that have more detail than Crysis nowadays that are able to run better on the same system.

Poorly-optimized games can run like crap on high-end systems even if there isn't much graphical detail:

speaking of video games, beside Valve and Arkane studio, i don't see many AAA game companies really pushing and revolutionizing the gaming industry in any meaningful ways. Their game just feel plastic and repetitive, you know what i mean ?

The story starts, bad guys appear and need to be stopped, then you start running, shooting, get behind covers, more shooting, execute a flashy and cool finisher move and more running, sometime you open crates and then more shooting.

If the game's only selling point is the graphics, the game would feel shallow and it would ages badly. But of course, that's the thing that attracts dumb gamers.

@Extreme Z7

Yes, that's probably the case. Also, the computer that I bought is just a laptop dedicated to web development so it's not a highly powerful machine, but I was happy to see that it was able to run Crysis.
