I mean, do we blame 4K or do we blame Sony here?
4K is a rediculous resolution and even mighty PC can struggle to run games on a 4K monitor at high frames, let alone a giant television.
I still think a.) we jumped to 4K too soon (at least as far as gaming is concerned), and b.) should focus more on performance and stability than quality visuals.
I mean if you can't make your game look good at 4K, the least you can do is make it run well. Don't give me a good looking game that runs like crap.
Well, to be fair, ray tracing and stuff like that was completely off the table before the gen started. Those seem to be the big killers since DD2 will be getting ray tracing(at least on the PC version)--and if it is, then that might be the major fps killer, but who knows what's going on behind the scenes.
The funny thing is, consoles are dropping resolution for many games and many still aren't running at 4k. The Finals, for instance is only at 1440p basically all of the time except looking straight up into the sky on the consoles. It's not really the fact that 4k is hard to hit, because that's not even the reason much of the time--it's mainly the garbage CPU they put in these consoles.
I can't remember, was ray tracing common when the gen started? Or was even planned?
I know it was around but I can't remember if it was as common (or expected to be as common) as it is now. PS5 came out like 2 years ago or something?
In either case, I feel like they should have/could have accounted for it on console. I imagine when they're drafting the specs for these machines they know what coming and what the demand will be before we do.
In either case, I almost always have ray tracing off on my PC, and I have a RTX3080 working at 1440p. Sometimes ray tracing works fine, other times it just kills it. Cyberpunk and Avatar, for example, definitely need it off to get good performance.
*ah, PS5 came out a little over three years ago.

There you go again, stating the obvious 🙄
