While watching this there were a few times where I thought "Hey, this actually looks really good", then I realised that was the RTX off shot. The RTX on shots just didn't do it for me as much as they did for games like Quake 2.
I think that HL2 just already had great baked lighting that adding ray tracing doesn't make it feel much different.
This is my biggest reason for not buying the latest gen consoles. They lean heavily towards digital downloads, and I want to be able to unpack the console in 20 years for nostalgia and play a game without worrying if the game store is still available to download it.
There are physical disc versions, but I get the feeling even there the games won't work out of the box without and internet connection to the online server/store
I'm jealous of that download speed. Took me an hour to download and during that time my wife decided we had to go out for dinner. So now I don't get to play until after work tomorrow 😔
I recently watched a YouTube video of someone making Kombucha and when they added in the large amount of sugar I thought that there is no way it is "healthy". Ive never tried kombucha so I don't know how sweet it should be, but I'm hoping that recipe was the outlier
