Fuck, the new need for speed looks UGLY as fuck....

I haven't seen so much shit on screen since announcement of Street fighter 6

Has more details? Yes.
Looks better? No.

Something about that game makes my eyes hurt. (even on PC, with full details and maxed out settings.)

@Kagekokoro @Zerglingman @alyx @Cleanears @TornadoOfTerror @raptor
The probem in world was not details, but the obvious power draw. Most likely because of some programming in the shitty port.

@Kagekokoro @Zerglingman @alyx @Cleanears @TornadoOfTerror @raptor
So, by question is this:
What game can you think of, that SERIOUSLY NEEDS that additional power, and reduced details would ruin the experience?

@Kagekokoro @Zerglingman @alyx @Cleanears @TornadoOfTerror @raptor
The point is invalid, because it does not apply.

I am saying, that most of the power GPUs eat are wasted on modern gaming.

And I think, that this exact thesis is proven by experience on the Deck.

@Kagekokoro @Zerglingman @alyx @Cleanears @TornadoOfTerror @raptor
Do you really expect me to argue levels of details?

Ok, Steam deck is not powerful enough to do full ray-tracing to get that one pixel from FFAC05 to more correct FFAC06.

I don't care about details, when I can play GTA V in bed.

@Kagekokoro @Zerglingman @alyx @Cleanears @TornadoOfTerror @raptor
Although, yes....
There are some games, that are not optimalized for portable gaming.

For instance, MonsterHunter world was obviously trying to squeeze in all the power it got, so that is a first game, that I marked for myself as "nah, I'm good"

Ok, you can hate all you can, but:
1) any games that came after 360 are shit anyway.
2) I am seriously happy I bought it. That point cannot be argued.

@raptor @Kagekokoro @Zerglingman @alyx @Cleanears @TornadoOfTerror
Even for semi-modern games like GTA-V it can manage 60 FPS at high setting.

I do tend to set low details and 30 FPS for sake of battery, but the power is there.

@TornadoOfTerror @Kagekokoro @Zerglingman @alyx @Cleanears
It's funny, that we live in the same age, whre modern graphics cards eat 450 W, while a 45W deck can play all the games anyway.

Yes, I know, that these cards are not for gaming, but it seems, that separation of gaming and industrial graphics cards is inevitable at this point.

Can you send me a link? All the MREs I've looked at were expensive as fuck.
