Oh you mean as a bundle? Yeah sure, I can see that.
So now 60FPS is not good anymore?
It's 100% Source 2 engine with some upgrades.
I mean on TV it's fine I guess but that's literally the bare minimum these days. 144hz monitors are so ubiquitous that I suspect most expect to run their games at least at 120fps or above.
This will run on some version of Source 2.
The huge majority of folks are completely fine with 60 FPS as it's smooth enough for most people and most people still uses 1080P anyway.
For real, most people don't give a crap about 4K or 120 FPS , 240 FPS or whatever. 60 FPS would be fine for a huge percentages of people whether it's on tv or a monitor. And most people would be fine with med settings as long as the game looks great enough and aren't worried about upping up every possible setting to the max either.
Yeah Half Life Alyx looks amazing and I think it'll be good enough to most if Half Life 3 looks like that graphic wise. Besides the graphics better way better than part 2. They also have more vibrant colors to them making it seem like a mix of 1 and 2. Half Life 3 is guaranteed to be both vr and non VR too in order to get the majority of the players in. So it's going to be a giant success.
To be fair, most people don't even have a high refresh rate monitor. Worst of all, many believe (after experiencing > 100 FPS on a 60Hz screen) there's won't be any difference even if their monitor was 120Hz+, and thus they refuse to upgrade, sometimes spreading nonsense online, claiming they're right and that the people with high refresh monitors were brainwashed.
I think everyone or at least a lot of people could tell the difference between 60 fps and higher fps just like people could tell the differences between 1080p and 4k.
Source 2 is brilliantly optimised, do not worry little one
I don't doubt that but lets not pretend you're going to see HL3 in its best form on the Gabecube.
He's factually right though, according to Steam Hardware Surveys. Most people don't care about more than 60 hz for their displays, and 1080p is far and away the most common resolution. I'm in the middle, as I've still got 1080 in a few rooms in the house, but I do 4k in the game room and 1440p on all capable PC's throughout the house, (still the sweet spot and I don't see that changing), but I have to say that I really don't think 1080p looks bad at all, and I'd still wager that most casual gamers can't tell the difference between 1080p and 4k, they just see it all as "good." My daughter has a 1080p for her setup despite having a 4060 in her machine, and it honestly looks great.TENEIGHTYPEE???
My brother it's 2025. Even phones have higher resolutions.
Absolutely yeah, this is what I was trying to communicate, I probably didn't say it properly.
It doesn't matter what resolution the Phones have lol.TENEIGHTYPEE???
My brother it's 2025. Even phones have higher resolutions.
I have a 4070 but i play in 1080p by choice. Maybe with an updated GPU in 2027 i will play with 2k, 4k whatever.TENEIGHTYPEE???
My brother it's 2025. Even phones have higher resolutions.
I almost always default to medium, any graphical improvements I notice the second I turn on ultra I forget about them after 5 mins, I rather have more stable fps
And if does get announced this year you guys are just going to pretend that you didn't said shit like that and then proceed to do the same next time
Not really, dude. I can spend the extra frames for better raytracing perfomance which is about 20-25 % instead of playing in 2k. I don't really care for higher res (maybe because i haven't seen 2k in action but whatever)
Damn I guess the vast majority are degenerates lol.
He's just trolling at this point.
Yep , i think you are right, lol. He's calling people degenerates.
Yes and no.
The goalposts are always moving, innit.
60 FPS hasn't really been good in the PC world for a long time. 30 FPS is a complete non-starter.
The way I see it. 60 is good enough for playing with a controller, with a mouse I need at least 90 but 120+ is preferable. 30 is cancer aids
You did. I just wanted to back you up.
The machine is better than the majority who will have access to it on Steam.
Yep and while I most likely won't get the Steam Box but as far as Half Life 3 and performance for it goes with the Steam Box.The machine is better than the majorly who will have access to it on Steam.
You'd hope so considering the supposed price of the thing and the fact that, apparently, the majority of people still play at TENEIGHTYPEE.The machine is better than the majority who will have access to it on Steam.
Nobody said it would be the best place to play HL3.You'd hope so considering the supposed price of the thing and the fact that, apparently, the majority of people still play at TENEIGHTYPEE.
Will be interesting to see how something like HL3 performs on it. It will be perfectly fine of course but I still doubt that it will be 'the best place to play' HL3 at.
Definitely won't be the best place to play it obviously. I mean if you have a 5090, 4K TV etc big surround sounds etc than why would you wanna play on a much weaker system.You'd hope so considering the supposed price of the thing and the fact that, apparently, the majority of people still play at TENEIGHTYPEE.

Indeed, I argued the opposite and how interesting of a case that would be (namely first party hardware running first party software not being the best place to play it).Nobody said it would be the best place to play HL3.
But that was because they took advantage of the VR medium, they had plenty to work with to innovate with mechanics that are just not possible in a flatscreen game. Proof of that is how the non-VR mods butcher the experience.
That would be a huge awesome surprise if during all this time they were working on multiple big games at the same time and decides to announce them all like that.
ALyx was a niche side game while Half Life 3 is a huge big mainline mainstream game that they'll want as many people getting into it as possible. So not making it on the flatscreen which is over 95% of the potential buyers is going to be a huge no.
