Some games are becoming overly challenging to play!
Hey! It seems today's games are becoming much more demanding to handle. Unity and Far Cry 4 are good examples. I know Unity often has optimization issues, but CPUs with just two cores struggle in FC 4. Battlefield 4 performs better with four cores. Bad Company 2 didn’t have problems on two cores either. I think Intel won’t add more cores to its i3 line soon, so to achieve higher frame rates you’ll likely need an i5, which makes games cost more when running at higher settings. What do you think?
I'm not complaining at all—I don't play those Ubisoft titles. My system isn't too powerful, but it works just fine for most games. Also, why does this come as a surprise?
You're asking for a summary of the message. It suggests adapting to new standards, implying older games may not be as viable, while acknowledging that enjoying past titles is still possible.
I love games that make good use of resources and actually deliver value. You can always adjust the settings to your liking. What bothers me is games that waste resources without offering any meaningful content, often due to poor design. I understand developers have their challenges, but publishers sometimes push unrealistic timelines and release games regardless of their current condition.
