They are not good at it, they are good at baiting me with stupid however.

Hey guess what you are not actually doing?

You are unlikely to make real money (basic law of averages), and if you are making the sort of CEO cash these posts are even funnier.

Ok, why are you like this? Non rhetorical this time, as this is not even grammar nazi at this point but a complete lack of understanding of the even the possibility of nuance in the written word. Why do you seem to feel the need to ruin any non literal use of descriptive words? What broke in you to make you such a way?

Ah, you seem to have some issues with literary devices. The question was what is called “rhetorical” and was not meant to be answered or taken literally.

Well people have some guesses…

I have never once read corpulent in my life describing the physical state of an individual, it has always been about over indulgence or bloated or overly baroque style. Not saying it has not been used in a way to describe a fat person but that I am not able to prove a negative.

Dlss 4.5 also sucks, just fake frames for fake people.

No ray tracing is not super used, most turn it off for a smoother game. And in this case you are telling us that in what 6 months they will get dlss 5 working? Naw this is more or less the thing that will come to customers in September.

$10,000 CAD at the moment. This is the cheapest one I could find in stock…

Yeah, we currently have issue with server/client latency right now in games why the ever loving fuck would anyone think adding another link in that chain would be better or even usable.

I have the best internet I can get in my area, its fairly good and above the average but I still have plenty of issues since games are often hosted on the cheapest option often far far away. Hell I was visiting my friend and his son is a big fortnite kid and got to see them rage quit trying to play during update day due to very very bad lag. That is fortnite, the most accessible game I think is currently around.

The whole idea that these game streaming services are even viable more then 100kms from the streaming location is kinda flawed. We have shit infrastructure and if anything it is getting worse as games and telecoms are cutting corners more and more. This is kinda a silly way to try to sell unsellable hardware and unsellable AAA games in a market where more and more consumers don’t care as much about super photo realistic games and can not afford new hardware. 100% this push to serverside streaming of games is just a thing to sell investors on the idea that their business model is not doomed (it is doomed however).

I have only seen it used figuratively, why are you like this?

The vast majority can’t afford a 50’nothin at this point.

I think most people are ok with frame gen because it doesn’t touch the actual content. It just moves things around a bit with motion vectors which actually was kind of a thing even before AI although not very good. It didn’t repaint the game into some different art style.

Naw most people are not ok with fake frames, and like raytracing is getting less and less likely to be left on. Most people however hate fake frames not due to the frames themselves but the motion blur effect that seems to be needed to make things look ok on top of the frame gen (no one likes motion blur).

You are right that this is going to replace game graphics to some degree since its another shortcut game studios can use to cut costs (and the industry is kinda struggling at the moment). Why spend effort, time and money making a model look good when you can use a tool to gloss over the work and while it does not look “good” per say it will look better then it should.

• Playing in lower resolutions and bragging that you don’t notice it?

I thought so as well until I played stalker 2 and got the frustration of getting launched in random directions when trying to jump on walls and such (you know a part of the game, stalking)

They needed to use two whole ass 5090s to fuck up a game character that already looked great (and even sexualised to a degree). This anti gamer crap is funny since they are a consumer group that gets called out if they want less and also called out if they want more, they get called every silly thing when ever someone (normally by the very people working in the industry that relies on those very consumers) has nothing of value to say.

This move has been almost universally panned by the very people they are trying to sell to. The idea that what any market wants changes is also not at all new or odd. We are in interesting times where most have issues buying food and shelter and yet here we are being pissy about gamers not wanting to spend literal 1000s of dollars on hardware to run things that are seen more and more as greed fueled slop. And this flopping of “new” tech is also not new or odd at all, do we all forget the many many examples of tech that the market just does not embrace?

Oh shit you are right! This is just modern day greebling.

All of a sudden Tung Tung Tung Sahur is looking pretty dang good.

Two 5090s can hardly be considered a consumer gpu set up. (They are over $5000 each here at the moment).
