Gregory's Server@LordCaramac @Shrigglepuss The need for high end computer for games is a marketing fabrication. Read the reviews of games from 10years ago and tell me how often you see "This is the best of its time and it still sucks but fortunately 10years from now we'll reach a decent level". Or tell me how bad it is today and how much you're looking forward for the graphics 10years from now.
We used to have fun with old consoles. We were only convinced they're old and their games ugly because we're showed nicer graphics now.
If were to freeze graphics quality, 3D modelling would also be suddenly less demanding.
I would add that games are made more and more complex for no reason. Nowadays you need to follow series of tutorials to play. Is there any fun in a tutorial?? Where is the good old "launch and you'll have it figured out in 5mins"? Because we had "shooting game", and then "multiple choices of weapons" and soon "full training on the weapons available to all armies in the world". Why not add an exam at the end of the damned game course because that's what I would expect from a game: feeling I'm back at schools with all kinds of evaluations and tons of information to know by heart.
