"amazing technology" comes with some performance cost :ROFLMAO:
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAH

How is this different than CerebralTiger saying ray tracing isn't worth the performance cost, but also continues to be impressed by Insomniac's RT on consoles and Looooomen? He also explained numerious times how the tech usage ain't even all that impressive in Rift Apart to begin with. When is CerebralTiger going to ever follow his own rules? :ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO:🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

Performance is king, and RT isn't offering any gains there. Nvidia, however, claims that DirectStorage and RTX IO reduce streaming stutters due to GPUs being able to decompress data much faster than CPUs. Necrokiller himself claimed that the API is the answer to dedicated decompression hardware in the consoles 🤷‍♂️:LOL:

Alex tou impress hua. 🤷‍♂️:LOL: (Or maybe not after he tests the Zurkie's bar race. Can't wait! :LOL: 🤜 )

Yet CerebralTiger wants to judge game performance based on RT settings :ROFLMAO:

He is not impressed by the fact that Insomniac's engine does not utilize all the throughput available even on PS5 and this was part of his original analysis 🤷‍♂️ :ROFLMAO:

As you reminded me, Alex said this:

Nixxes has done the heavy lifting and basically solved the storage challenge
Besides, the max throughput not being utilized indicates that the bottleneck may be elsewhere (latency perhaps?), and that it may not be the fault of DirectStorage :LOL: 🤜

One can be imrpessed that Nixxes utilized the proper APIs to achieve it, and it could still be underwhelming that the underlying engine isn't capable of utilizing it to its full potential. This is true even for Cerny's mythical machine as Guru Ledbetter proved in his testing and Alex confirmed it in his 🤷‍♂️ :ROFLMAO:

The Dualshock 4 destroys the Steam controller with far better gyro functionality, and made it go extinct :LOL: 🤜

Haptics and adaptive triggers, when used correctly, aren't gimmicks at all. Haptics provide more accurate awareness of enemy presence in shooters and the soft lock on adaptive triggers offers practical usage of a dual fire mode. Beat that, fan of extinct controller :ROFLMAO:

    Phil should be held responsible for this shitfest too, just like Sarah, but it's highly likely that these decisions are coming from Satya. And this isn't even the end of it. More closures are coming.

    if we are moving towards more and more popular trash across platforms that make billions for companies, I'm happy with all the barriers and exclusivity because at least that brings some pressure to create good stuff.

    So i just found out that f***ing s***bag Microsoft shut down Arkane Studio (makers of the brilliant Dishonored series) and Tango Gameworks (makers of the iconic The Evil Within series), among some other studios. I just want to say a giant F*** Y**! to Microsoft. THEY'VE F***ED UP BIG TIME this time.

    Started Dead Island 2, and i find it pretty lame. The story is shit. The characters are either cringe or bland (all 6 of them), The gameplay isn't fun. Even the goddamn zombies don't behave like proper zombies. They're all fast & intelligent unlike how zombies are supposed to be like. Any fan of "zombie" genre cannot possibly like this shitfest of a game. Dying Light 2 was million times better than this shit.

    tbh gaming industry as a whole is failing much like tech industry. They have buckled down too much to Corporate suites then relying on passionate and innovative people. A corporate only believes in financial growth and shareholders.
