Have to keep mentioning it because lazy devs are dying to go back to 30fps because it's less work to optimize.

It's unavoidable if they keep using UE5...

I have plenty of pc's at work for work so of course it can do more than gaming.
I Also have servers for my business.
Have screens in the shop to follow orders on the fly etc.
But thats exactly why i play on consoles.
I cant take this crap home with me. I need to get away from it or i lose my mind

Yes, I was bamboozled by your immense intellect and thoroughly well thought out and internally consistent viewpoints. Even the ones that contradicted themselves.

It's completely avoidable, you simply work within technical limitations and be creative with art to make games looking better. MGS2 had pin sharp reflections before ray tracing was a thing in gaming.

I am talking only about gaming. What about "pc gaming" was not clear? Console gaming sucks too much with too many limitations in resolutions/IQ, performance, controls, mods, backwards compatibility, forward compatibility, emulation.
And lol at the mental gymnastics about "working on PC makes gaming on PC at home suck". A big freaking excuse to try to alleviate the FOMO.

Don't ever let anybody tell you there's anything wrong with having standards.

Unlikely to go in that direction
Bloated plugins, unoptimized assets, spaghetti code and using all the engine buzzword tools to excite gamers is what's going on and not going anytime soon.
Just an example, because Sweeney's engine is basically tailored for their billion online game where everything is destructible, Lumen is coded by default to rerun at very fast cycles to remain dynamic right? Fine enough for that type of game and many others..
But Silent hill 2? They kept Lumen updates like it would need to refresh the scene like Fortnite. Absolutely USELESS. SH2 is the kind of game that even baked lighting would have worked. If you use Lumen then you can literally stop updating it after the scene is rendered. Almost nothing is dynamic in that game. Or the Lumen update should be smart and do it when it detects a massive change in the scene or up to developer's request. As of now, you're wasting GPU cycles for updating... static light scenes.
Switching SH2 to DX11 removes nanite... and it performs better. Because its been proven time and time again that there's already good enough tools for LOD management and smart culling, even nanite overdraws more than most culling algorithms.
UE5 has introduced so much fucking bloat for little to no gain. I used to be excited for it but now I go into UE5 game with low expectations because its a shit show so far.
I mean Mario 64 while we're at it. There's been many clever tricks in the past to get around limitations and they performed well.

Max settings at way higher resolutions and framerate. The same as somebody that buys the full package version of an automobile with all the bells and whistles.

YOu might buy the full package but you atill get to your destination at a speed limit and through pot holes.
You just get a back massage while you get there lol

39, working on a computer the entire day. I don't hate my job and love PCs.
Now show on the doll where your working PCs did touch you.

Not much to go by.
I am older than you.
I have my own manufacturing company.
I am processing orders , then i am doing all the programming all orders for the cnc's or design, programm new items for what ever order, design amd program custom orders, material orders, invenrory managemenr, payroll, set up deliveries my list is fucking long.
We have of course for all tasks their own computer, coding happens also on individaul machines not just in the office.
Running from one screen to another all day and deal with a tone of stress and xustomer bullshit or logistic bullshit.
Online orders are going live from january that will add another whole layer to the bullshit.
This is 12 to 14 hours a day. Soon we have 2 shifts and so on and so on.
Nice you love your job as an employee. Your work your hours then go home to your famiky and have your weekend off or you may work from home.
But this is why you cant expect that everyone is like you.
And yes after each stressful day i dont want to deal with nothing juat sit my ass on the couch turn on the tv and if i have some energy left in me i may or may not play a game and only on my console as i juat want it quick and easy.
There is no fomo on my end other than fomo of life as i cant find the balance yet and sometimes i wonder is it even worth it when i dont get to enjoy the benefits of my work.
I dont expect you to understand my world but there are peole like me who are happy to play on console though they can buy a pc that will put most to shame.
I understand you though. Its like me working on a n100 or x100/x200nesting having to work on a shop sabre nesting . Does the same job but its a toy compared to mines.
Anyways, please just understand that people dont chose consoles over pc cuz they are cheap or clueless. Sometimes its really just preference. At the end of the day, i dont want to be reminded of work. I need to get away from it.
No need for insults or belittling.

I do the exactly same thing coming home, laying in my mattress (couch sucks vs mattress), double click one the game and play with the least compromises vs a console.
And no one insulted anyone so far.

It looks alright to me, I wouldn't be disappointed with that to be honest. It's 5 year old hardware at this point. Reasonably good looking game and I bet it's a lot of fun. Obviously it's going to look better on a higher end PC, but this is still fine.

I enjoy folk arguing about comparing console and pc graphics of a Stalker game.
I look forward to the colour brown and it running like shit.
Just like my days of old.
