Yeah I think that’s a side effect of knowing how the sausage is made.
I have written my own ECS loops, rendering pipelines; all naive but after that it’s optimizing to product fit, and product emotional themes are pretty copy-paste to satisfy social memes.
- GhettoComputers 5y agoThey still occasionally come out but it’s rare. I haven’t been happy with an AAA game aside from Prey recently (2017 as “recent”) and Cyberpunk 2077 was all hype and no substance. I think they’re running out of new interesting games (Paradox, and Arkane are still good studios though) and many games I’m intrigued by are just remakes. Starcraft Remastered, AoE II HD, System Shock, the Halo collection for instance, the Homeworld remake didn’t even interest me since I heard it was worst in some ways with hit boxes. They also don’t need new graphics cards. It’s so different from when PC hardware upgrades and games were so much more closely coupled.
- staticman2 5y agoSony has started to port prestige first party PlayStation games like Horizon Zero Dawn to pc. If you like that sort of thing it's worth checking out...
- Apocryphon 5y agoFeels like we've hit a plateau in terms of graphics for nearly a decade now in terms of "good enough" or "realistic enough."
- GhettoComputers 5y agoI haven't been excited for graphics since Crysis in 2008, nothing after that was very impressive in comparison.
