    There’s a lot of AAA that isn’t slop. That sounds like coping.

    Would you be able to run something like Horizon Forbidden West at moderate settings and 60 fps?

      Thinking the avg lemmy user plays games that are newer then 2008 is were you fucked up.

      People that use this platform basically are glorified luddites when it comes to gaming unless you go to extremely specific gaming areas. Then it’s like 2018 instead of 2008.

      Don’t even know of that game.

      I dont really stay up to date on super new games either tbh. I have a huge console collection so a lot of my gaming is spent there as well. Besides, I dont pay more than 20 dollars for games, so I dont buy new ones.

      Also, since I refuse to run windows, quite a few scummy game companies are purposely locking out linux users with their trash anti cheat. So I wont play those games and have no want to.

      Oh also I just looked up that game. I cant stand that kind of game so I would never feel the need to play it. Too much fantasy and flashiness for me. Wayy too complex to be fun for people who dont game 12 hours a day.

        super new games

        I dont pay more than 20 dollars

        I paid €16 for Horizon Zero Dawn, it came out in 2017… 🤷‍♂️ One of the best single player games I’ve ever played. Runs on Linux. Played the whole game on Linux. Played in sessions of a few hours a time. I have 2 kids and played this game.

        I think you are using a lot of assumptions here. But if you really don’t like that kind of game, fair enough.

        I’m just saying, there are a lot of high value games which are not slop. All I’m saying.
