  • Ah I see. Graphics didn't get any more complex and needed stronger hardware before raytracing was introduced. There isn't any way to make a game demanding and look pretty without raytracing.

    If you think it's not acceptable, then... Don't accept it I guess?

  • Maybe the graphics are that intense, even at whatever they chose to call "medium". Try "low" then and see how those work out.

    You are worked up about linguistics because it's nothing more to you at the moment. Just because you're used to run every other game at "high" or whatever, doesn't mean this different game has to be the same.

    I refuse to agree with "my midrange GPU has to be able to run everything at Ultra for #random number# of years or I am going ballistics". I want progress. That's what I buy new hardware for every few years. If you want graphics to be stuck and don't advance in any meaningful way, get a console.

  • You'll be able to play a new game with state of the art graphics at medium settings with a mid range GPU from 3 years ago. Seems fine to me.

    We don't know what medium settings actually mean. It may still look amazing.

    For Control (2019) the first released minium system requirements had a Nvidia GeForce GTX 1060 from 2016. This was later lowered but that's pretty much in line with what we see now. They're aiming for next gen graphics. It worked for Control. The game was used as a benchmark for raytracing for years.

  • A walking dead version? Sure. 28 days later? Nah. If those fuckers run like that, we'd be done for.

    Yes I realize 28 days later technically has no zombies but it's a more probable scenario to have a virus infect people and make them mad than actual corpses walking around.

  • But what do you do instead? Take a look at when some parts of the world would see their sunrise and sunset if all the world switched to winter time or summer time forever. What works at one place, results in a crazy daylight cycle in another.

  • This. If you don't need a laptop for anything in particular, get a desktop pc. Performance will be way better and you can easily upgrade it later on.

    A good monitor beats whatever you can do with a laptop any day. No gaming laptop can come close to a nice 24" or bigger screen.
