Ok, cool.

Let's revisit this when Rockstar gets universal adoration for GTA6, which will absolutely require a Rockstar account & launcher.

So that's who that tool is that's trying to convince me I need to hate another game every time I rot my brain on TikTok.

I don't know how many times I've told that app I'm not interested in how much he hates Star Wars Outlaws.

Did they still find a way to blame their Western developers since they shed them all?

Wait until they make all the money that was to be made on their game.

Then yoink all of that money.

I'm legitimately worried about next gen, since Sony is doing the same thing with their pricing as GPU manufacturers.

That thing being, the increase in price is >/= the actual increase in performance. The PS5 Pro is a 75% price increase over the similarly disc-driveless $399 PS5 (hardware which is almost a half-decade old now).

For me, entirely the opposite.

I just bought the Lossless Scaling app on Steam for my RTX 3070. That shit is magic on the 144Hz 4K TV that my gaming PC is connected to. I play games exclusively with a gamepad, so I notice absolutely zero input latency.

I have fully drunk the frame gen Kool-Aid.

The PS5 Pro is a decent value compared to a PC. It's just not an amazing value like the original PS5 was in 2020.

Take PCPP's Entry Level AMD Gaming Build. Upgrade it to a 2TB NVME and a RX 6800 GPU. That's $830. ⁨ https://pcpartpicker.com/guide/NtFfrH/entry-level-amd-gaming-build

That's pretty similar specs to the PS5 Pro (with a better Zen 3 CPU, but minus a gamepad).

That optimization part is what worries me. I still remember games like Control & Cyberpunk being basically unplayable unless you had a PS4 Pro.

I'm surprised that they don't take even a minimal amount of effort to clean those things up before selling it. A little dab of isopropryl alcohol does wonders.

That cartridge looks like it spent the last 20 years in a butt.

Someone buys fake on eBay. Plays it. Sells it to Gamestop. Minimum wage employee does not spot that it's fake and it ends up on the used game shelf.

None of this is new.

There seems to be a TikTok campaign where certain people desperately want players to hate this game. I keep seeing this same skinny wispy-bearded dude over & over shitting on the game.

I keep seeing the videos, and what I watch just makes me say "It honestly doesn't look bad to me."
