"our players nothing less than the best possible game, as soon as possible"
Also the as soon as possible from this article scared me.
Krafton obviously wants to rush development and release an unfinished game after some crunch time for the devs.
And the new ceo is the guy who is being hired to rush out a product and keep cost low.
It all comes now to how far they are into development. I fear, since this was kind of their magnus opus subnautica experience, that they took it slowly and built a strong fundament with maybe good mechanics, just to now release it rushed out and not used and implemented fully what they spent years building.
This is because a lot of older games were going for an artistic style>
BioShock is a perfect example because of its beautiful art direction. >
I totally agree with you. Another good example is Alice: Madness Returns. Just booted it up for the first time yesterday and it looks so good, pleasing in a way.
There are just so many good games out there. No time to play them all. Also i think epic free games and this prime free game stuff contributed to it. I just started playing bioshock bc of it.
Also on pc it feels so good to play an old game and just crank up every setting to max, 4k, install some mods, no ai upscaling but msaa 8x and not having to worry about performance even on mid range PCs.
I genuinely prefer the graphics of older games since for me image clarity is much more important than how many polygons a gun has or how the puddle of water reflects light.
Like even the new unreal engine 5 games cannot run maxxed out on a 5090 in 4k without upscaling. They only look good in trailers.
I just finshed resident evil 7. When it came out I ignored it because the setting didn't appeal to me. But re8's setting does so to get the story I played 7 now first and I really really liked it. It was scary, it was intriguing and it felt close to re1 though it lacked some more puzzle sections.
Same. In the late 2000s or so my father knew ot so much about computers so some family friend set it up and he installed Firefox. I ve been using Firefox my whole life since. I tried switching to ungoogled chromeium, Brave and cromite on mobile but just can't. Like Firefox and its forks are in my muscle memory. It's over. I won't be able to use the internet anymore. Bye guys 👋
Thank you for your comment. This made me reconsider. I already bit on ebay for an nokia stream box 8010. If I loose I might then go with the orbsmart s 87 plus since it has av1 :)
Edit:
Nvm 8010 has av1 too. I previously bit on the 8000 which doesn't but I thankfully lost.
The router is far away from both devices so I think connection might be bad. But I guess I can try with my phone on the spot where the TV is. Will do that tommorow. Thank you for the advice!

I hope for the best tho
