Comment on Steam Replay is live and notes only 14% "of playtime spent by all Steam users" was for 2025 releases
vrighter@discuss.tchncs.de 2 weeks agoue5 doesn’t force rt. But the number of games that do mandate rt (ex the latest indiana jones game) is increasing. I flat out can’t play those.

Ah, yeah, that’s a design decision that sucks. Those games I’ll pick up in few years when I have a card that’s capable of RT at an acceptable framerate. I get that tech becomes mandatory at some point, same as happened with OpenGL/DirectX and the various pixel shading versions back in the day. But in my opinion enforcing ray tracing came way too early, seeing how it eats performance.

raytracing and upscaling will always go hand in hand because the hardware is far, far, FAAAAAAR from being able to raytrace a whole frame in realtime. Like, really really far.
