Comment on 'Great' games I didn't play this year due to requirements
robotica@lemmy.world 10 months agoUm, it sounds completely the opposite. It sounds like he’s saying “steer away from these hyped up, unoptimized games and go play something better”

Why can’t it be both? Get an upgrade and steer clear of AAA games for the first year.

Not everyone can afford to get an upgrade, we don’t know what people are going through. This post is great for those people.

A CPU upgrade here would cost about the price of two of the triple A games OP mentioned, hardly a lot.

A CPU upgrade isn't going to help with the issues they described. The games are just not optimized properly. Even people with high end, current hardware are having the same issues

Obviously upgrading is fine and dandy, though also it might imply a motherboard upgrade too and such. I’m not saying upgrading is useless or anything, it’s just good to have options without shelling out for the best hardware just to be able to play unoptimized games that run like trash. Maybe you’re content with how your computer runs and you don’t want to upgrade just to play a couple of games.
Keep in mind that if you upgrade your computer, then you still need to buy the games.
