        It's bizarre, they were sold out for so long but I honestly don't get what people even play on this thing. The only console with any games is still the fricking Switch, and only because it's been out for twenty years already.

          Because you saying that the Switch is the only console with games shows you have no idea what the console market is like and what normal people play. Normal people are playing CoD but in particular Warzone, Skyrim, Elden Ring, Handegg, Handegg but with your feet, GTAV, RDR2, Assassin's Creed, Apex Legends, Fork Knife, Rocket League, Final Fantasy XIV, Genshin Impact, Warframe, Destiny 2, the Resident Evil games, and whatever else that's popular I can't think of off the top of my head. That's on top of playing PS4 games via BC because the majority of them are bargain bin now, the PS5 plays them, the PS5 is essentially a PS4 Pro Pro in that case, and it means they can sell their PS4 as an objective upgrade.

          PC is not what normal people use for gaming unless you're in Eastern Yurop or China so it's not even an option for multiplats in most people's minds, Xbox is Xbox, and Switch can't play most multiplats well or doesn't even have the ones people want.

          The way you perceive consoles is from an enthusiast's lens, you need to perceive it like an average Joe. Yeah, Xbox has GamePass but it's also missing Spider-Man 2 and Wolverine which is a hard sell for people wanting to get a new system, and if you're gonna argue either of those aren't a reason to buy a console that's your enthusiast speaking again.

              Computers can be used for cheap at net cafes instead of having to buy a PC or a console.
              Games are expensive and Valve is really the only one to adjust prices to local income values. Some of these countries live on a couple hundred US dollars a month, some of them live on less than that, so when a company is asking you to buy a game for half a month's salary it's a hard sell on top of a console you already had to buy.
              China in particular has a raging hard on for F2P games, especially browser games where you can P2W.

              Piracy is extremely easy.

              There is a reason why DOTA, LoL, Genshin, and Counter Strike are all extremely popular.

              Okay idiot what is then a "video game" that needs a high end gaming PC? Only recent AAA games need that hardware and according to you those are "not games".

              • 9 months ago
                Anonymous

                Recent AAA games are all either shit or remakes of games I already own. It used to be that you could buy a console and immediately get access to a few modern exclusives that were actually good and worth playing regardless of whether you were a 'hardcore gamer' or a casual, but today buying a modern console (Switch is effectively last-gen so doesn't really count) only gets you access to remakes and sports games.

                Like, the PS3 got a lot of shit when it came out because it had no games that justified purchasing the console, but at the end of its lifecycle it had a really solid library. The PS5 had no games when it came out in 2020 and it has no games today, despite being almost halfway through its lifecycle of 6-7 years already. It's probably not an issue with the PS5 specifically but more with the industry in general.

                If you actually like video games you would own a PC, a PS5, and a Switch. Add in a Steam Deck too for on-the-go emulation and your entire PC library.

                The PC will have the best multiplats and a massive library going back to the beginning of computers. You will also have access to every single game Xbox is going to have and you can emulate the ones it does have that are exclusive like Lost Odyssey, Blue Dragon, or RDR1 (The better version).
                The PS5 would have BC with PS4 games and PS5 games including Japanese exclusive games which the PS4 itself still has like City Shrouded in Shadow, Kamen Rider Battride War Genesis (Unless you want to play the inferior Vita/PS3 versions), and Fist of the North Star: Lost Paradise off the top of my head.
                The Switch would give you Nintendo exclusives, A and AA games we're not seeing on PS4/PS5 which, while uncommon, do still happen, and your choice of a handheld for these things.

                The backwards compatibility is nice, but if that's the only selling point I could also just buy a PS4 for less money. But I suppose that if there's a price drop for the PS5 it's worth a purchase since the handful of PS5 games worth playing then also become available.

              • 9 months ago

                The selling point is also the PS5 games from Sony if you want those (Many people want the Marvel games from Insomniac for example) without having to wait 2-4 years. Then there's Japanese-exclusive console games but I can't think of anything for PS5 as of now since almost everyone is still hesitant to get onto it outside of Squeenix with Forspoken and FFXVI.

                Unless you are playing at native 4K for some insane reason you don't need to spend more than like $1500 for a good 8+ years. If this bothers you then just play the multiplats on your PS5 instead as it'll mostly be comparable to the Xbox side except it won't lack the PS's side of the library that going with Xbox does.

                It's been over 15 fricking years since 1080p became the standard, it's still crazy to me that people are still playing on tiny monitors. 10 years ago you should've been on 1440p. Right now you should be on 4k. In another decade you should be on 8k. After 8k there are severe diminishing returns so I'd expect most people to never go beyond that point for monitors.

                The cost both in terms of money and hardware simply isn't worth it to go for higher resolutions. It's especially annoying to deal with higher resolutions because even something like 1440p can sometimes have black bars since it's an uncommon resolution while 4K introduces issues with older games almost constantly and in newer games the parts you need to run the games reliably at 4K 60 or even 4K 30 are fairly expensive overall. Yeah, you can DLSS but many people don't want to do that because it looks pretty bad in motion, especially in screenshots. Don't even get me started on multi-monitor setups of different resolutions.

With playstation you don't know what the frick is happening with them they don't attend any conventions anymore like E3, gamescom or even do playstation experience anymore. I think that's the most frustrating thing about modern playstation.

        Yeah I think it really sucks having both a gaming PC and a non-Nintendo console this gen. Everything is getting put on PC, and unlike previous generations the ports are way fricking better than the console versions. I actually bought an Xbox Series X last year and my most played games on it are all stuff that doesn't have a PC release for them top of the list is crash team racing niteo fueled, Microwiener needs to port that shit already. Even Game Pass titles I wind up playing them on the PC instead, and again the ones I play on Xbox are not on PC at all like The Darkness 1 and Rare Replay.

      Virtual Reality is the next step in games, there's no other direction for it to go. Touch screen phones were a clunky moronic disaster at first, people were singing praises to physical buttons until it was renewed and refined and now it's the standard. Phones with buttons have since tried to come out and people prove they have adapted and prefer touch screens overall. I actually prefer there being SOME physical buttons at least, but I'm glad they pushed through those first few years of failed messes and gimmicks to be here. VR and AR will have the same route. Like it or not, eventually it will become less and less of a clunky mess and someone will come out with an iteration that finally gets the ball rolling.

      I know Ganker is full of misanthropes but I am surprised at the attitude towards it. I understand criticizing the flaws in current models, but such a negative attitude towards any progress or innovation on that front is ridiculous. You actually want it to fail, to never reach its full potential. You would prefer to crush that dream for everyone, just so you can shitpost "I told you so" to a bunch of other misanthropic losers who will never know or care anyway. What a life.

It's insane how we're living in a time that is basically like magic, and progress just keeps accelerating overnight, with yesterdays impossible being today's possible, and still we have some morons on here saying the car will never take over the wagon.

            Touch screens used to be pretty useful. They're now completely useless, nobody has produced anything of any value on a modern touch screen, they are consumption tools at best.

            The average understanding of the systems in place has become lower and lower with each successive generation. Zoomers don't even understand the concept of folders, because their phone organises everything for them. Nobody ever thought that the idea of cashless was impossible, they just thought it was fricking stupid. It's still fricking stupid, but give the proles an ounce of convenience and they'll happily give up all their tracking information so advertising robots can build better profiles of them.

            VR is the future. What is currently marketed as "VR" is so far off full dive, or AR contact lenses, that it is pointless to call it VR.

      VR porn is a legitimate waste of time. The games are shit, the video stuff is even worse. I've seen maybe 2 VR films I enjoyed on any level, and they weren't really worth a rewatch.

      Maybe if it was more popular, more of the JAV content would get ripped. But most of the rippers seem to have stopped bothering, and of the 1% of stuff that gets ripped, most of it is bitrate starved either by the moronic chinks trying to reencode it, or the studio themselves. So it all looks like shit.

    The problem is the current inflexible game industry

    If this advanced VR was available in 2005, we would be swimming in experimental VR kino, but today devs are taught to just follow points and can't grasp what is fun on screen is not fun in VR.
    They became too attached to steal the control of the camera when they want to show something.
    They are too used to bloating the UI instead of using proper sound design to transmit information.

                That's just bullshit from Larian, they wanted to avoid releasing the same time as Starfield since they knew they would get BTFO. Series S and X have exactly the same CPU. S has lower unified RAM and weaker GPU, so you can always just turn the resolution and textures down to shit and call it a day, which is in fact what many devs do. Anything else is lies or cope.

                It's the same CPU and the same family GPU just with lower memory and less GPU cores. Pretending it's some huge insurmountable task to develop for S and X at the same time is disingenuous. Like I said, nothing is stopping developers from not giving a shit about "optimising" for S and instead just turning graphics down to shit level and calling it a day. It's in fact what many games have already done, so what's stopping Larian? Unless they're lying of course.

                How is that even relevant to the conversation? Series S is "holding back this generation" because PS5 runs the game at 58 FPS vs 52 FPS on X? The reason for that is btw that PS5 has fewer cores with higher clocks and most games can't scale across a gazillion cores so the clock speed matters more. Microsoft fricked up with the lower clocks on X but that has nothing to do with the Series S or this discussion. I'm done replying to you, clearly you're not arguing in good faith.

                MS likely got more CU's for better RT performance as they were intrigued by demo's like Minecraft RTX, which was kinda a mistake since RT just performs badly on RDNA2 in general unless it's lightweight reflections or hybrid shadows.

    PS5 is a flop. There's no reason for any enthusiast to get a console because there's no exclusives, any exclusives it does get come out on PC eventually (in Nintendo's case, before the console gets it). The only kind of people with the care to buy into VR are on PC.

    PSVR is holding back the growth of the PC VR industry by having the only exclusives on PSVR. So no, my ass is not paying $1000 for two unupgradable machines for the privilege of playing VR games.

        Enthusiasts are not the common normie. Someone with $1000 to swing around in the hobby of video games is going to see more value in PC VR versus PS VR. Sony is fricking with VR devs, and the VR industry as a whole, by baiting them into developing for a dead platform. People need to realize that where VR is at right now is actually really fricking tight and dividing the few number of games people can play between several different marketplaces doesn't sell the product.

        In the VR environment, exclusives hurt because VR isn't publicly seen as proven tech. It needs to have as much reach as possible, and exclusives get in the way of that because there's only so few enthusiasts rich enough to Idort not just on consoles but VR kits. If Sony was this gorilla-gripped on their actual exclusives, I might actually have a PS5.

          Becusse moronic vidya ai is even more noticeable in vr than flat, only pvp games really do well. Which means the only way to release a pvp game that's not doa is crossplay. Crossplay games are allergic to sony. They dont allow user created content and devs gotta pay extra to allow crossplay with sony which is why even aaa usually even opts out of that.

    Who the frick got scammed into a Playstation VR?

    At least a PC VR headset could look forward to some homebrew games. At least you could make stuff for it. At least it could hope for some indie titles. At least any sort of PC program could be designed which made the VR headset functional, at least as long as it wasn't locked to Win7 or something similar. There has even been using the VR headset for head tracking for face tracking.

    But a PS5VR? It is literally useless outside the video games that Sony was willing to put on the platform. And if they just never get anything good out, or if they release a newer system, they it's as good as a bricked Wii U gamepad.
    You're fricking moronic if you bought the PS5VR without there being any games available on it.

      But no, they decided to ship out a cheap android tablet with a dualsense strapped to it. And it's not even an OLED screen. Probably for $250 + tip + PS Plus
