Yeah this article is woefully uninformed. Author seems to be butt hurt about GPU pricing rather than any serious interest in how the protocol actually works.

As a British guy who worked in the USA for a while, my colleagues couldn’t fathom that I had no interest in going to Disneyland. It was kinda weird the obsession some of them had with it.
elgordino@fedia.ioto Games@lemmy.world•Nintendo Switch 2 US price won’t increase after tariffs, but accessories will cost more16·2 months agoI wouldn’t be surprised if it’s due to the ‘don’t call them exemptions’ covering the console but not separate controllers.
elgordino@fedia.ioto Gaming@beehaw.org•Reviewers giving high scores to poorly optimised games really grinds my gears3·5 months agoI meant a diminishing number of PC players without RT.
The PC with RT + console market is increasing. The PC without RT market is only decreasing.
elgordino@fedia.ioto Gaming@beehaw.org•Reviewers giving high scores to poorly optimised games really grinds my gears9·5 months agoThe reason the new Doom and Indiana Jones games require a card with ray tracing is a consequence of the consoles all having ray tracing and an increasing number of PC users do too.
So to support a diminishing number of PC players would require the game to be lit twice, one with RT and one with traditional methods. Obviously this costs more in development and testing and studios are increasingly deciding it’s just not worth it.
It’s got to be the biggest dividing line we’ve seen in years. I suspect things will settle down for a while, now.
Amazon charges per hour for renting a server. Some are very expensive. It’s a common mistake to forget to turn off a server after you’ve finished using it and end up paying more than you planned.
Pretty sure the scary warnings in big bold text are more recent than this report.

Yeah I just watched Skill Up’s video and then was surprised to see so many positive reviews on this roundup. What gives? Are folks so keen for more Dragon Age that they turn a blind eye to such deficiencies? Or is it just a difference of opinion.

elgordino@fedia.ioto Privacy@lemmy.ml•Fuck Hilton: Black Hat USA 2024, DEF CON 32 attendees treated like children – or criminals – with invasive hotel room checks365·9 months agoAll hotels reserve the right to inspect your room whenever they need to. The privacy sign just means you don’t want room service, it’s not some magical lock.
They’d still knock, not just burst into your room to catch you in flagrante.
That said seeing the black hat conference in this way is daft.

The adaptive triggers and haptics are just great. I use one on the PC and for the games that support the extra features they really do add an extra dimension.

I tried this on my 6700XT I had to play in 720p, the performance was that bad. Any of the available upscalers just made it look worse.
I upgraded to a more modern card since then and it works fine, but if you’re on something like a 6700xt I’d be wary or prepare to refund if you don’t like the performance.
