I seem to have struck a nerve there, apologies.

I don’t think it’s a shit example. It’s the latest I experienced. It’s a good game but hampered technically. Nobody needs to tell me, I’ve been gaming since before dos and grew up with it; I’ve also been working in it for a few decades.

Look; you could just have a bigger or more gpus with more ram in a pc but if the end result does not significantly look better the question is for what all the effort is.

And that’s what happened with UE5.

Yes, maybe in a few years it might look different but it’s also been some time and hasn’t really been worth any of the performance impact.

And - as said - I see quality impact in UE5 games which I personally can not comprehend in an supposed upgrade.

However, feel free to disagree.

Maybe it’s my background in datacenters: of course you can always meet demand with more raw power but it’s a losing fight and the intelligent progress is to optimize and use resources in a clever way.
