play indie games

for AAA titles, installing and running them already feels like a burden. PC games use to ship on 700 MB CD and 4 GB DVD and I think it's insane to see more than 2 discs in a box. Developer have to save every triangle on the model and every MB of texture memory to work on limited resource. Now they just ship 8k full LOD and let UE handle the optimization part. Won't complain if it works good.

80 GB for one game is not ideal

I love Tekken but 130+GiB for one online versus game is absurd! I wonder how much smaller it'd be if the models, textures and UI elements were optimised for 1080p, too.

Baldur's Gate 1 came out on 5 discs in 1998. Big games aren't new.

Welcome to the club. ;-;

*pats my old 1070Ti

It's unbelievable how well that one line of cards is holding up. I'm on a 1080, no Ti. Still runs most games on decent quality settings at 1440p and 60+ fps.

jokes on you, they started remaking my 3070ti.

[–] RightHandOfIkaros@lemmy.world 8 points 2 weeks ago

Ryzen 5, 3600 and 1660 Super team, ASSEMBLE... A NEW MACHINE!

Most of them are just UE5 games and I can tweak the engine.ini file to kill some of the new features that make it run like ass like Lumen. The ones using their own shit, tho... ugh. 😩

I built a new high end system a couple years ago, and I'm glad I did, since it may have to last for the foreseeable future.

Look at Mr. Moneybags over here /lh

I guess you're not wrong, it definitely wasn't cheap. I bought the components during a Black Friday sale, so I was able to save several hundred, though.

Is it surviving? I'm on a 1080 and there aren't many games I can't play, but I'm finally having to make noticeable sacrifices in quality to get a decent frame rate. I can still run games at 1440p though. But, for a 10 year old card, it's amazing what it can do.

[–] sompreno@lemmy.zip 1 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Its running fine although I tend to play older/indie games at 1440p 60-300 fps depending on whay im playing.

Although recently I've been wanting to play Expedition 33 which I would probabily have issues with when I get around to it

[–] merc@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 weeks ago

That's really amazing. Before I got my 1080 I remember how having a video card that was just 5 years out of date meant many new games were completely unplayable. I wonder if I can hold out long enough for the next batch of AMD cards to come out. I'm on Linux these days and would really prefer to buy an AMD card, but I don't want to buy a medium spec card, and the last high-spec card AMD released was the 7900 type cards from 3.5 years ago. I wouldn't want to replace my 10 year old card with one that's 3.5 years old. That seems pointless.
