You can render more pixels.
No interest whatsoever.
Maybe I'll have a look when it becomes affordable.
I am fine with 4K. |

Still the same gameplay, whatever resolution you play it in. It doesn’t somehow make Aloy pump rainbows out her arse because it’s in 4K or 8K.
They keep reinventing the wheel to keep a generation interested in effects, rather than gameplay.
It’s like buying a car. 18-24 year olds most requested feature of a car they want to buy, is….. wait for it. Parking sensors. Like wtf. A basic thing taught and used daily is now a necessity. It’s not like cars are all of a sudden BIG. Like we didn’t drive minibuses or vans in the 80s. So here we are, wheel back round “bored of 4K, what’s next?” Let’s go 8K? Brilliant idea! I bet it’s better than 4K |

Well, that's just the world we live in.
If people stop buying, they can close shop.
So, they gotta keep reinventing the wheel.
I only wish they'd do it not at the expense of the environment.
There's just so much ewaste... |

That’s the biggest problem; consumerism.
All the fat cats get richer and the quality of products/lifespan/reliability and repair all go out the window. Throughout the decades, people could repair just about everything themselves. TVs, cars, washing machines, cookers and they were built exactly for that purpose. Repair shops/garages sold parts or fixed them and it created an infinite financial tethered line (back to the manufacturer) for anyone that owned a car or TV. Then You had pleasure because you could fix things yourself - every weekend repairs, services etc and parts were cheap and of course apprenticeships were bountiful.
Now you can’t fix nothing, it’s solid state, non-repairable parts inside. So it ends up in landfill because nobody goes lugging about 50+ inch TVs to recycle points or if a car costs to much when ECUs or PCBs fail, it’s stays dumped!
So no one has a care about quality anymore and neither do manufacturers - hence the shit state of GPUs. It’s more or less acceptable for items to fail in a relative short term and just to Chuck them out with the garbage or in a field.
“Buy another”
When Singer Sowing machines were made they were ‘bullet proof’. They never failed. This cost the company dearly, so if any came in with a simple glitch, they were told by the boss to smash them to pieces with a sledgehammer (out the back) and sell the customer a new one.
You got to make more money, eh. Even at the expense of the environment. EVs have an incredible amount of toxic waste (from battery replacements) that can’t be recycled, yet people think - because they are electric- they produce little to no waste. They still produce the biggest waste the same as ICE , through tyre wear, brake dust.
Nothing changes other than emissions. But bearing in mind due to LAMBDA sensors,catalytic converters and ECUs, ICEs are now one of the cleanest forms of combustion on the planet.
You have to look at other countries for population size and emissions (no rules on vehicle emissions/factory/power stations for a start) that are effecting the world in general. No amount of small changes by other countries will stop a runaway train… |
