In our first look at the stellar PC version of Alan Wake 2, Alex Battaglia focuses on the game's demanding recommended specs, then stacks up PC against PS5 t...
Consoles require it all the time and nobody bats an eye but when equivalent PC hardware requires it it’s a problem? If you don’t like it buy a GPU that’s significantly faster than a console then.
Because unlike 20 years ago 5 year old hardware are not outdated. 5 Year old hardware are more than capable enough to do almost everything a PC needs to do. 20 years ago a 5 year gap in hardware means 1000+% improvement. Now 5 year gap hardly gives 100% improvement but costs 1000 dollars more.
Jensen already said that gpus are already reaching peak raster performance, yeah they could givde you more performance nxt gen at a cost of higher power draw and money
That’s exactly why people are upset about these. Because 5 year old GPUs are perfectly fine today and still will be fine for 2-3 years as long as your demand is not that high. The hardware built into GTX 1080 still is capable of handling modern AAA games at playable framerates easily. This is the reason a lot of people are upset when a new game is not optimized for older hardware. I get it is old and all but despite all that it is still a working perfectly fine for everything else other than that unoptimized game…
People have good reason to get upset about it. Not everyone wants or have the capability to update their PC every few years. And companies asking people to update the hardware for a problem they themselves created is pretty stupid.
the game has RT enabled by default as per Digital Foundry, it needs mesh shaders also as per the developer. The developers already published whats the min and recommended specs for their game, and if you bought it not knowing that your gpu support it, thats on you.

Pc master race problem when their 5yr old gpu low mid end gpu doesnt run the way they want a game to run

Yea because moores law is kicking in thats why gpu now are using ai to improve performance like frame gen, technology doesnt move in a straight line.
