          The “opinion” memes can also be used. Eg. The Lisa in front of projector meme for an opinion you think is based or the change my mind meme if you think your opinion is unpopular.

          Edit: Actually I think any “opponent” meme might fit this better. Some examples are the bane meme and the yugi vs kaiba meme.

    My Rx580 8gb is holding up surprisingly well. I bought stray and horizon zero darn (I’m keeping that spelling, I like it) and they are running really well. I shied away from post 2019 games because I was afraid my pc would burn, but I’ve been incorrect.

    1080p/6o fps ultra settings in Stray. Drops only to 40 fps in horizon on all high.

    Both in Linux via proton and while recording using an open source version of shadowplay

      Yep, vulkan and FSR/DLSS are giving more longevity to GPUs, CPUs are now the bottleneck, suddenly I can’t play any 2023 game without heavy stuttering because I only have a Ryzen 3200G.

      Sorry… Did you write 60 with an o?

      Anyway, I recently bought a 4080, but I’m genuinely only playing stuff like Dave the Diver, so I seriously don’t need it at all. I’m having some serious buyer’s remorse

      Power to you! I feel like gaming is widening up and becoming less of a hardware race.

      The only reason I put high end stuff in my machine is because I’m a Blender artist, but most of the games I play barely make it churn.

      For light modeling and developing the old MSI laptop I got passed down with 12GB of RAM and a 960M in it is handling just gloriously after putting an NVME and EndeavourOS on it! It’ll emulate stuff and play 95% of my entire library just fine.

      It’s a nice time.

      Now if only I could FIND the time…

    After some bad luck with finances and the two laptops I bought in the past 10 years, I had to fall back to my 2011 PC. And what can I say - it does everything I need. 2012 games in max, 2015 games good enough, professional back-end programming - surprisingly - still to modern-day perfection.

    I found that after the level of KOTOR 2 / Fallout 3, extra graphics does not mean extra fun. Why would it have to look like a live-action movie? I could just watch an actual movie, or go outside.

    I wonder if my old 2000s 939-socket MB would still be good enough if we weren’t pushed to buy something newer. Those are the ones for the first consumer 64 bit Athlon CPUs, and could be upgraded with dual-core Opteron later on. We could all play Star Wars Galaxies and Fallout 3 and be happy.

    I’d say the unrealistic parts of games are the things that make it fun.

    Like respawning in fps.

    Not having to wait to race on sunday in a racing game.

    The quick improving of your skills in an rpg.

    The fully obedient soldiers in a strategy game.

    I have to admit that picking up Cyberpunk 2077 when you’ve never played an realistic game before is really an experience. Although I am only running a 6600XT, the graphics still blew my mind

    But no, I don’t need to have ultra ray tracing water reflection mirror image boob sweat realism either.

    This is why I tend to just play indie games anymore. I absolutely love cartoon like and unrealistic graphics a lot more than their realistic counterparts. It’s the same reason I love animation more than its’ live action counterpart.
