Well, yet. As history shows, many big game shops care very little whether their game is unplayable on current systems and push for a more expensive setup instead. On the other hand, this is partly the reason I can now do ML at home doing things that were far out of my range a few years ago.
- ladberg 6y agoGame developers might treat PC players like that, but never console players. If an optimization boosted performance on PCs but was detrimental to consoles they would never implement it.
- dvfjsdhgfv 6y agoI was specifically referring to PC games. They can't do that on consoles as the game for model X is for model X, whereas the one for PC has minimal and recommended requirements.
