Comment on Randy Pitchford Snaps Back at Borderlands 4 Criticism: 'Code Your Own Engine'
SalamenceFury@lemmy.world 1 day agoThat isn’t what is being sold
That’s what was being sold for over three decades. I give 1000 dollars worth of graphics card, I can run anything at max settings with no compromises. Nvidia and videogame devs enshittified this shit so much that you require stuff that should be reserved for LOW END graphics cards to run the game properly. Fuck that.

Hey buddy. I got a 2070 that I’ll give you a real bargain on. Only 900 USD plus s&h. It’ll play Crysis at max settings with absolutely no compromises. Hit me up.
But, in all seriousness: This is why (minimally biased) reviews are a thing. Outlets like Gamers Nexus or Hardware Unboxed do a spectacular job of actually benchmarking against common games of the current era (and a few oldies) and comparing them against a large database of other cards. Don’t just assume that you can give Jensen a grand and get what you want. Make informed decisions.
Also I am not actually sure if 900 is ACTUALLY a steal for a 2070 at this point and didn’t care enough to check for my joke. SImilarly, I want to say a grand is closer to a 4070 than a 4090 at this point? Shit is REAL fucked which is even more why you should actually look at what you are buying rather than “30 years ago if I gave someone a thousand bucks they would suck me off AND let me play every game I could ever want at a full 640*40 and 30 FPS!”

I can’t decipher whatever word salad you’re trying to say here and I don’t care. There is no excuse for a top of the line GPU from LAST YEAR to not get at least 80 FPS on High. Most gamers are poor and have stuff like 3060s, 4060s, and RX 6600s. I’m not a rich fucker who can burn 2000 dollars every year on a 600 watt GPU to get a pitiful 50 FPS.
